Winner Chicago Derby.

Chicago, June 24.-Thirty thousand
people saw Virginia Bradley's Aloha geld
ing Robert Waddell, Il to / in the bet
ting, win the fourteenth American derby
at Washington track by one length in
2:33 As, record time for the race. Few in
the surging, cheering throng had backed
the comparatively friendless animal to
capture the rich stake from the horses OF
the eastern and western millionaires. but
seldom has the tumultuous cheering
genuine ovation given to horse and rider
been equalled in this state.
Jockey Bullman, to whom fell the honor
of taking two derbies in succession, was
swept into a human maelstrom after he
had dismounted and verified his weight
He was boosted upon the shoulders of men
and a detail of blue coats had to be called
to clear the admiring, cheering throngs
from the course. As for the earnest, pleb-
ian racing tool, Robert Waddell, he re
fused to permit the attendants to tie upon
his back the gigantic floral saddle that the
club had provided for the winner.
Terminus, William T. Skaters Blazes

lite, r. T. Wilson, Jr.'s, colt, The Parader

ting as high court of justice, reassem-
bled, continuing the trial of the marquis
de Lur-Saluces, charged with treason, the

London, June 23.-Spain appears to be
making vigorous efforts to repair the de-
pletion of her armament caused by the
Spanish-American war. A special navy
commission from Madrid, now in London,
has placed with the Maxim Vickers con-
Germ large order for guns which dur
ing tests this week made the remarkable
record of firing five aimed rounds in 81
seconds, maintaining an average, with a
proiectile weighing 200 pounds, of over five
rounds per minute. The striking muzzle
energy was 1857 feet, or nearly six times
greater than in the case of the guns now
used on board Great Britain's best battle
ships.

williamson, w. Va, June 26.-Reports
from points south in the lower end of the
Hooded district indicate that the loss OF

IS at keystone, Vivian and Elkhorn. Not

TORNADO NEAR P|TTSBURG
SEVERAL LIVES WERE LOST.
three Lives We're Lost-Lnrge
Amount of Property Destroyed-
several Towns FIooded-Peopie
Forced to Flee for safety.


Pittsburg. June 24-The vicinity of
PIttsburg was visited recently by one
of the tiercest storms known since the
United States weather bureau has
been established. Within As minutes
/ 10 inches of rain fell and during
that time the lightning and thunder
we're almost continuous. The wind
was not high except in contracted
path few hundred feet wide, which
swept like a tornado through Ale
gheny, a portion Of the east end of
pittsburg and on to Wilmerding and
Turtle Greek.
James Howard, aged 16, was struck
on the head by live wire at Du-
quesne and instantly killed.
James Dunn, aged 10, after saving
the life of his brother Harry aged
z years, who had fallen into the creek
ut Braddock, was carried away by the
waters and drowned.
Charles Marcus, an Italian, who was
working in a sewer at Center and
Euclid avenues, was drowned. When
the rain came the sewer was a rag
ing torrent in q moment, and Marcus
was torn away from his fellow work
men and probably carried through to
the river
Great damage was done in the two
cities and suburbs east. Conservative
estimates place the loss at 100000.
The tornado at Allegheny struck the
grand stand of the ball park and car
ried away bodily $50 feet of that
structure and moved from it's founda-
tion the entire stand. Two of the
beams of the grand stand plowed
through the roof of house on Robin
son street, going from the garnet to
the first floor, carrying away portion
of bed on which James Williamson
was sleeping. 1t Is a miracle that no
lives were lost in Allegheny.
In Pittsburg, Fifth avenue and
Forbes street, in the Soho district,
were completely blocked with great
masses of dirt and stone washed from
the hill. and all street car service to
ard from the east was suspended for
about two hours. The Point Breeze
Presbyterian church was struck by
lightning and the steeple, together with
portion of the roof of the edifice.
was wrecked.
At East Pittsburg, Turtle creek was
higher than ever before known. but
tho Inhabitants along its banks were
warned by Bessemer engine going
over the route whistling and ringing
its bell, letting the people know of the
danger. The entire business portion
OF the town of Turtle Creek is under
water. The creek on it's rampage
hooded the great works of the West
inghouse Electric and Manufacturing
company at East Pittsburg. The
Westinghouse officials expect to have
the works running as usual within a
few days.
At Jacks Run, in Manchester, the
people were forced to fee from their
home in widest terror, but so far as
the central police station had news. no
lives were lost. Braddock and other
points in the country report great
damage from the storm, running into
the thousands.

Speculation is rife everywhere.
1t is characteristic of the times;
but not one of its signs. There
are safe and unsafe speculations.
Those made deliberately with a
thought to accuracy, and IN the
proper season of the departure
generally bring some due return
for the energy expended. Those
made on the impulse of the mo-
nent without regarding the risk
taken, rashly inportunate, often
result otherwise. The evil of the
loss is not SO great if the property
invested belongs to the person in
vesting; but, when the property
of another is taken, without that
others knowledge, with the
thought of restoring Immediately
when the profits are made, then
the evils OF the situation are
plain. Even a slight loss in the
beginning is not a sufficient warn
| ing but an incentive to ssbuck the
tiger" and win eventually. The
world may never note nor long
remember what we do here, but
when institutions in any coinnu-
nifty are forced to close their doors
and make unsatished returns ol
funds not their own, then it is
time that we remember the Incl.
dents and note the evil thereof
No one is posing as moralis1
these days. No need of it. The

bian government, having pur-
chased the property and right
from the Panama Canal Commits
sion, succeeds in disposiug of it.
The latter has expended about
thirty-four million dollars, but
are unable to proceed for lack OF
capital. The United States could
secure the property and right
from the Columbian government
for about fifty OF sixty million,
and it might not be a bad idea to
support the action. The United
States needs a shortcut to the
Pacific exclusively under its con
troll.

It is a strange fact, but true
nevertheless. The United States
will conquer the world through
its industries. The military pow
er of the nation is beyond ques-
ton and the world has a great
burden taken off its shoulder.
European nations are now rack
ing their brains to find means
whereby they can meet the gigan-
tic combinations of capital now
forming in the United States.

ton has been well laid. If, on the other
hand, he does not study the mother-in-
law carefully and select wisely, il he
plunges into matrimony recklessly, max
ing no account OF the mother-in-law, he
will be apt to discover before he has ven
tured far on the connubial course that
he is sailing in dangerous waters, and he
will be unhappy.
Incidentally, the young man should be
assured that good mothers in-law are
far more numerous than the newspaper
photographers and end men at the Minis
trel shows would lead him to believe,
There are one hundred good ones where
there is one that is meddlesome and ar
rogant. The hunt for a mother-in-law
need be but little less interesting than
the hunt for a wife. Having found a
good mOther-in-law, the finding of a.
good wife is much simplifed. A reversal
OF the usual order of courtship is at
least worth trying.
