The third of the series of races between
the Canadian yacht Dominion and the Yam
kee, owned by the White Bear Yacht Club
of St. Paul, was sailed yesterday on Lake
St Louis, Quebec. There was a stiff breeze

sight. The home buoy was turned first by
the Dominion, which finally won, crossing
the line at 3.27, while the Yankee finished
at 1880. Another race will be sailed to-
day.

; "Remember the Maine,

The next attraction at the Grand
three nights, commencing next Sunday,
will be Lincoln j. Carriers naval drama,
Remember the Name
The play is melodrama, founded on
some of the incidents of the late war.
The intrigue begins in Havana, where
the Spanish plot to blow up the Maine
is disclosed. Prominent in the scheme
is Weyler and a Spanish naval officer
named Rujaneiro. Figuring in the act
are also General Lee and his ward,
a Miss Walters, with whom a young
officer of the British navy is in love.
There are several Spanish conspirators,
a Chinese sea cook. a Cuban girl,
Spanish woman, and these manage to
mix up in an intrigue in which jeal-
ousy. revenge, patriotism and love are
successfully brought into play. The
object of the entertainment, however,
is to bring upon the scene the incidents
of the war, such as the arrival of the
Maine in Havana. and the blowing up
of that vessel. Then the scene shifts
to Manila and all the persons except
Weyler manage to get there in time
to see the battle of Cavite. This is
realistic scene. in which the American
and Spanish vessels fire vigorously
upon one another.

MET A TERRIBLE DEATH
John Kielty Killed in the Bell
Mine.
WAS GROUND TO A PULP
Thrown From tho Cage and Crushed
Between the Cage and thu Wall
Ptetes-Ee Fell Seven
Hundred Feet.

John Kielty, sometimes known as
Patrick Kielty. a miner employed at
the Diamond mine, met terrible death
- ehe smart OF the Bell mine yester-
ods morning. In some manner which
no one appears to understand he was
thrown from the cage and crushed to
death between the cage and wall
plates. His body was literally man
gled to a pulp.
AS is generally known. the Diamond
and Bell are connecting mines and
when the shaft is not working in one
the men of that mine are hoisted and
lowered through the shaft of the other.
klelty was employed on the 1900 level
OF the Diamond, and was working a
night shift. Owing to some improve
ments that We're beingSmade in the
Diamond, the shaft was not working.
ana when the night men went off shift
yesterday morning the men went over
into the Bell to be hoisted.
kelly went to the 1000 level and
with others. stood waiting to go on
top, when the cage came up from be-
low with four men On the upper deck.
The cage stepped to put two men on
that deck and the station tender then
rang to hoist up the lower deck. the
the men at the LOCO on that deck. The
cage came up and stopped for this
purpose. and kelly, who stood nearest
the shaft, jumped on. He had scarce
~ done so when the cage was taken
away like lightning. The next thing
that was known was that his body
was found in the stump. nearly 700
feet below the LOCO. Just how he came
to get off the cage is the mystery of
the accident, no enc seeming to know,
but it is certain that he fell off from
some cause and was ground to death
between the cage and wall plates.
AS soon as it was known that Kielty
had fallen into the shaft party was
sent to the sump. They found blood
and particles of flesh on the wall plates
all the way from the 1000 TO the stump.
showing how the body had bounded
from one side to the other in its de-
scent. The body when found was in
a shocking condition. The head was
torn nearly entirely away, the arms
were broken in several places and the
legs and lower portion of the body were
ground into a shapeloss mass. The
body was removed to the surface and
Ccr2ner Julien and Mine Inspector
Hunter notified. After their investiga-
ton the body was removed to Dug
CAMS Undertaking rooms, where an in
quest will be held this afternoon.
The deceased was a man about SO
years of age, and is said to have a wife
in California. He had no relatives here
and not much is known concerning
him. aside from the fact that he work
ed in the Parrot mine last summer
and boarded at the Florence hotel La
ter he left the Parrot and went to the
Diamond, where he has since worked.

THE MAXIMUM PENAL Y
Imposed by Judge Clancy in an
Assault Case.
FIVE YEARS FOR erickson
Convicted OF Using a Knife to Empha-
sizs His Demand for a Loan OF
Twenty-Five Cents-Other
Court Matters.

Judge Clancy imposed q severe SEN
tence yesterday morning-the maxi
mum penalty-in an assault case. He
Nicted of assault in the second degree
for attacking with a pocket knife a
man who refused to yield up % cents
to demand made in highwayman
fashion on the street, to state prison
for five years.
Monday and Tuesday mornings were
successfully fixed for the sentence Of
Erickson. But Ericksens lawyer, Mr..
Cason. failed both times to appear in
court. Therefore the time was post
poned twice--to yesterday morning.
Mr.. Cason was in court yesterday. Bus
he did not look very hopeful, and his
client sat with his elbow on the arm
Of his chair. his face in his hand and
his eyes upon the floor in an eXagger-
ated and perhaps affected pose of I'M
changeable and stolid detection or in
difference. Since Mr.. Cason. in defense
Of his client at the latters trial, made
some efforts to suggest the insanity Of
the latter, the attitude may have been
intended to influence the court by
raising a doubt as to Ericksen's sanity.
If this was the object it failed, at all
events.
wen, E4uNaru Erickson. lnlS is the
time to pass sentence upon you. And
now, MI. Erickson. 1t is my duty. pro-
vided by law. to inform you, according
TO the law. that when the defendant
appears for judgment he must be in
formed of the charge against him and
given opportunity to state If he has any
legal reason why judgment should not

fair and impartial trial. according to
the law. Unless the jury thought you
guilty they would have acquitted you.
They found you guilty. Well, what
have you to say?" asked the court.
'All we have to say is this: The de-
PENDANT is charged with assault with a
deadly weapon. with intent to do great
bodily harm" said Mr.. Cason.
There was no deadly weapon men
toned interrupted District Attorney
Connolly.
We'll if there was no deadly weap-
on, then there can be no proof of an
intent to do great bodily harm. I'm

to give the defendant the minimum
sentence. The injured man had only
scratch on his scalp. And though
the district attorney has treated The
matter with considerable lavty. the
acts of the defendant at the time Of
the offense were not like those Of the
man now. Therefore I respectfully beg
that lenient trea tment be accorded the
defendant said Mr.. Cason.

the defendant Sanders to make an
