Mrs. N. j. Austin Receives Bad News
From st. Cloud

Mrs. N. d. AustfH NeCtfVes Bau NeWs
From st. CIOud.
Mrs. N. J. Austin, of 461 Selby ave-
nue., received letter yesterday from
Chief of Police Wheeler, of st. Cloud,
stating that one of the persons killed in
collision near that point on Sunday
night, answered to that of her son
Harry, who has been missing since July
10.
The collision was caused by a freight
train breaking in two and twelve
empty cars were derailed. Two badly
disf1gured bodies were found in the
wreck and the persons had evidently
been stealing ride in the empty car
when the accident occurred.

Harry Austin, the young man who is
thought to be one of the parties killed
was about seventeen years old and left
st. Paul on July 10, taking with him
$300 belonging to his aunt, Mrs Maggie
Waters, who lives at Gladstone. a small
station near the Harvester works
Young Austin had been visiting his
aunt for several days previous to the
disappearance Of the money and had
evidently been on the lookout for some
thing which would enable him to take
an extended visit through the country
The day before he went away his aunt
had been paid $500, which was due on
some notes, and, watching his oppor-
tunity, Austin took the cash and also
notes amounting to about 81 900, and
departed. The police of this city were
notified and a description Of the lad
sent to police officials through the
state. Nothing was heard from him
since he left until yesterday. when his
mother received letter from the chief
of police of st. Cloud
Mrs. Austin left yesterday afternoon
for st. Cloud to make an investigation
and II possible satisfy herself as to
whether the body was that of her son.
1t was from the cards sent out by the
police here that Chief Wheeler. of ST.
Cloud, had his attention called to the
similarity between the description of
Austin and one Of the bodies found in
the railroad wreck.

jured. Mr.. Mcmillan said yesterday in
regard to the scheme:
TT occurred to me that every day we
are obliged to call a physician for
some one,-w}lo is taken i'll IN the depot
or who arrives here i'll and when the
thousands of people arrive here next
week it would be quite. necessary to
have something in the nature of a hos
pital right here at the station where
those overcome by illness or accident
could be cared for So at my Sugges-
ton the matter was brought before the
general committee which decided at
once in favor of the idea-a The room to
be used for the purpose is on the north
ern side of the second floor of the sta
tion and is we'll suited for this use. 1t

Salvation Army.

We announced IA few days ago that
the Savationlsts throughout this terri
tory are having their self-denial week
from November % TO the 2Sth. Conse-
quentIy the most strenuous efforts are
being made on the part of the Army
generally throughout the land, and
locally in the separate towns and vii
lages where the Army is. We conclude
from the contents of their official ga
zette, the War Cry, as well from some
special pamphlets and appeals which
are being distributed by the soldiers and
officers, that they evidently intend
this year total to far exceed last years
1t is Il cause for some surprise that the
amounts collected during past sclf.de-
nial weeks in this territory have been
continually increasing, and there are
many reasons for believing that this
years effort will exceed any former
one. We learn that many of the officers
aud soldiers have actually determined
to live On bread and wafer, others next
to it, in order t., raise more money and
reach the goal aimed for Soldiers have
been told often to visit from house to
house and solicit contributions.
Yours Very Sincerely,
CAPT. II. MARRIs,

HAS the Suffrage Amendment carried.

The state boari met Monday to can
Vas- the returns of the late election,
but two counties were missing and the
board adjourned until Tuesday
The missing counties are Kootenai
and shoshone. Nothing like full re-
turns have been gathered from the
state, and there is much anxiety as to
the result of the official canvass.
There is very curious complication
over the result of the vote on the
amendments to the constitution. The
law makes no provision respecting the
determination of the result, the consti.
tuition simply declaring that II II ma
jority of the electors vote for an amend.
ment 1t shall become part of the con-
stitution. There is II contr oversy as to
whether the language majority Of
electors means Il majority Of all the
voters, are Il majority of those voting
on the amendment. AS the board is
not required to declare what the result
is, there may be nothing to take an ap-
peal from. The equal suffrage amend
mert is involved. 1t secured large
of the votes cast on the ques-
tion, but not a majority of all the votes.
and this causes interest in the proba.
BILE action of the board in the matter.

A Sad Death.

The Spokane Chronicle giveA the fol-
lowing account of the tragic death OF
little Russell Warren, the infant son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Sol Warren, formerly of
this city:
A shocking accident occurred about
two O'Clock yesterday by which the
two year old child of Mr. and Mrs. SO,
Warren will in all probability lose Its
life or in any event will be fearfully
Scared for life.
Mrs. Warren lives in the Holland
block on the top floor, occupying u
suite of rooms with her infant son,
Russell. This afternoon she left the
child on the bed asleep and went to
the posteffice to mail letter. On her
return she opened the door and cloud
OF smoke and flame rushed out Shrek
after shrek the poor woman gave,
calling out all the occupants Of the
floor, several OF whom rushed into the
room and rescued the child Others
got pails of water and put out the fire
The entire room seemed to he in flames
and the bed upon which the child lay
was completely wrapped in flames.
Mrs. Warren In the meantime crazed
at the sight of her desrly-loved child,
disappeared, and for time could not
be found. DIR. Olmstead was summon
ell but there WAS little that could be
done for the little sufferer and 1t IL only
lieve 1t from Its pain. Mr. Warren has
not been In the city for some time and
his exact locality At present is un-
known. There il no clew to the origin
OF the fire.. Mrs Warren IL distracted
with grief.

A Good Suggestion.

The city council should take imme-
diate step in the matter of compelling
all citizens to remove leaves and other
matter from yards, and to purify wet
filthy places, AS many such can be
found in any part of the city. Moscow
has both diptheria and scarlet fever, as
well AS many other towns in the north
west. II precautions are taken now,
no danger need be feared, but if We
continue to neglect this matter till
these dreadful diseases are once started
here. 1t will be years before we get rid
of them. 1t is hoped the authorizes
will not deny this protection to our
little children. CITIZEN.

and accepted compromise. This was
mistake, but that is another matter.
| we know, too, that the great body OF
the Mckinley Republicans of the state
would prefer Dubois to either a Popu-
list or Democrat and We, therefore,
believe it probable that Mr.. Fenn's
vote will finally go to Idaho's silver
champion.
What will the Peoples Democrats doo
The state is just now full Of Populists
who are just suited to be U. S. senators.
We have heard Claggett of Shoshone,
Boyce OF Shoshone, Ruick of Blaine,
Williams of Fillmore, J. Ed. Smith of
Bingham, Bruner of Haley, Cooper Of
Canyon, Wester OF BOISE, Ballentine
of Blaine, Angel of Blaine and Nelson
of Latah.
"This abundance of timber, and it
must he SAID that some of it is rotten
timber, means big fight, and 1t seems
probable that some Democrat may vet
come to the front. So far, however,
we have only heard two Democratic
candidates mentioned-J. NJ Hawley
and II. u. Johnston, both of Boise
City.
Among the Populist candidates
Clagett, Boyce and Ballentine are
easily in the lead. 1t does not seem
probable that any Of the Popo- Dem.
members who are natural Democrats
will vote for any other Popullst candi-
dates and IN event Of the failure of
either of these three, they are likely to
vote either for Democrat or for Du-
bOis
"At the outset of the battle the forces
will probably stand about as follows:
Dubois 80, Claeett p, Ballentine Z,
Boyce 5, Cooper 4, Hepburn l.
As the fight progresses it is probable
that CEagett will lose and Boyce and
BaI!entine gain, but it does not seem
possible that any Populist can gain
enough support to elect
When the break i'm the ranks of the
Peoples-D .mocrats comes the indica-
tions are that some Democrat, such as
Il. u. johnson and J. NJ. Hawley, will
get about II or Is votes, while the Pop.
ulst strength will scatter all over.
When this break takes place 1t is
reasonably certain that some Demo-
Gratis and some populists will vote for
Dubois and that Dubois will be elected
The great mistake that the Peoples
Democrats made when they entered
into their agreement was in not nam.
ing their man for U. S. Senator.
While the senatorship is Screaming

very much as if he had sold it for Il
