The 10th century has been record
breaker, but this is the hughest joke of
all; the Populist has won his right to
wear the fools cap and bells. The sad
part. nay more, the wickedness and
immortality of it all, is that an editor
should insinuate, that one class of cltl-
zens are combined to take the prop
ertv of another under the sanction of
law, which, without the law would be
stealing outright; that because man
is rich he is necessarily thief and in
pable of self-sacrifice for the common
good; that because a man is poor, he
is free from the greed of gain; that be-
cause he has to struggle for a
living he is in some way not explained,
being cheated, and that the patriotic
thing to do, is to antagonize wealth
instead of cooperating with it, for the
mutual benefit of all concerned. Di-
vine economy in the arrangement of
this world, so fixed things that every
individual should be dependent on all
others; it has been demonstrated
times without member. that success
and prosperity attend on mutual help
fulness and internal contention pro-
vokes results directly the reverse;
hence he who stirs up strife in mems
minds acts from base motives and is a
traitor TO his race.

Pittsburg, Aug. 19.-Reports OF dam
age caused by the storm which swept
over a portion uf Pittsburg and ALLIE
gheny last evening continue. The num-
erOuS accounts OF narrow escapes from
flying wreckage render 1t remarkable
that there We're no fatalities. The high
wind and heavy rain were accom-
panied by hail. During the storm there
was much sharp lightning, but no DAM
age resulted from this cause A num-
ber of buildings In various parts of
Ptttsburg and Allegheny suffered dam
age to roofs and chimneys. The tele-
graph and telephone wires. including
the fire alarm and patrol systems, We're
badly demoralized.
The heaviest individual loss from the
storm was that caused by damage to
the frame work Of Henderson, Johnston
a. Co.'S grain elevator: in pro-
cess of erection on Carson street The
damage. while of itself Is not serious by
reason OF the storm, Is Of a nature that
will require the work to be done over,
which will cost about $4,000.
Near Bedford avenue. a new unoccu-
pied brick house collapsed. a portion OF
the walls fell upon frame dwelling Oc-
cupied by Mrs. Daily. and one child and
Mrs. Pryor and three children. Two Of
the Pryor family and Mrs. Daily and
her Child were buried in the debris.
They We're speedily rescued and were
uninjured.

Limbaugh, stewardess of the steamer
Lud Keefer, went down with the boat
and was drowned. An unknown woman
Is said to have been blown from the

Patrick Shea, fireman at the West End
electric power house, was badly injured
by falling timber. John Adams, con-
ductor on the Second avenue electric
car. was badly shocked while removing
a wire from the track. His condition is
precarious. Two men who occupied q
shanty boat on the Allegheny side of the
Ohio river, are missing. 1t Is feared
that they were drowned
The storm was altogether local, and
IN fifteen minutes of its durat tion nearly
one-haf inch Of rain fell. The total
