Engine Made q Rough House,

Tom Elliott had just gotten every
thing TO humE" : a merry tune at
his saw mill -. m in the Fourth
ward last Monday morning when
the governor on his 40 horse power
engine refused to perform its mis-
sion. Then there was trouble and
plenty of it. Steam was up to the
popping point, the engine became
uncomfortable and ran away with
itself. 1t attained speed unknown
to engines of its class and in q few
seconds more pieces OF il on, big and
little, were flying in every direction.
Some of them tore their way out
through the roof and went sailing
away toward the deep, blue sky.
Others went out through the sides
OF the building and buried them
selves in the ground. Miraculously,
it seems, not a laborer in the mill
received a scratch. It was all over
in minute and all that was left OF
the engine wasn't much. One piece
of the big fly wheel was found over
near the Rapid River mills, fully
800 yards from the scene OF the acct
dent. Another one was found over
across the old creek bed $50 yards
to the north.
Mr.. Elliott cleaned the place up as
soon as the excitement was over an6
sent for an engine he had been using
in one of his mills up in the Hills
1t is now being put in place and the
merry whistle of the sawmill will
soon be heard again three times {
day as of yore. But Tom proposes
to see that there's a governor on tn,
thing that works, before he steam!

US OF the proposition, reported tina
the entire system could be put in b,
the city and taxed up to the adult
ing property. This committee sub
mitted with their report a copy o
the law under which this course
be pursued.
The committee chosen at the last
meeting to plan the system report
ed, submitting a route that would
accommodate all of the business dis.
trict and the principal part of the
residence portion Of the city. The
system as thus planned would cost
$4,000, or about SIP per lot abutt-
ing on the system.
After considerable discussion the
reports of the two committees were
ratified and the gentlemen making
them were requested to present
them to the city council at
its meeting Monday evening.
There is little doubt as to the &C
ton of the council in the matter
it will take up the task of sewer
construction and Rapid City will be
equipped with system second to
none in the Hills, making it the
cleanest and most healthful of all
Black Hills cities. The fact that

ance of bonds by the city is o mat.
ter of qualification to every citizen.

soM A FIERY DEATH.
Indiana likes Flying Leap-The Tale
of the Tar POT.

/" Huge volumes o
black smoke rose toward the heav
ems! Like the lounge of some gi
gantic serpent, the red flames bade
defiance to those who gazed, horror
stricken, upon the scene! There was
q aound Of hurrying footsteps! In
diana Ike leaped from the top of the
Commercial block with a pair Of
blood -colored overhalls in one hand
his other clutched his auburn-col.
ored hair! His face wore the look
Of deadly determination. The crisis
had arrived-Gambrill's tar-pot was
! on fire! Aroused to action by the
hazardous leap of the gentleman
from Indiana, the editor of The
UNION joined the rescuers. With
SLOUGH hat to protect his manly
brow from the heat and smoke,
Gambrill himself stood amid the din
and excitement of those terrible
moments and gave orders for three
buckets of water! He got them and
the critical period was past, with
out the loss of a single soul! With
a look of triumph Gambrill survey
ed the car-bespattered breaches OF
the editor, while Indiana Ike-he OF
the flying leap-escaped once more
to the roof. That night the cold,
pale moon arose from the eastern
Hills as peacefully as if nothing had
happened. This whole story might
have been told in the following
words: while engaged in repairing
the roof of the Commercial block Tues.
day II. 9. Gambrill's tar-pot caught
fire, but the flames were extinguish.

He Likes Our Doctrine.

The UNION was pleased and graft
fed last Saturday morning to re.
ceive the following letter from a
reader in Massachusetts. The letter
is self-explanatory and reads as
follows.
tsED1ToR .UN1oN-You closed your
splendid editorial on ''The Evils Of
Colonialism" in your issue of July
4th with the words; What do
YOU say?' AS one who has tried
to do something to block the
schemes Of the cabel Of empire build
ers, ] can only express the hope
that our four years Of experience in
this direction will be enough to show
the Americanpeople that a, contin-
uation of the policy means the death
Of the republic. When republican
spel.binders will try to gloss over
the orders Of such barbarians as
Gen. Jacob Smith, then that politica
party can sink to no lower level OF
infamy. # private individuals
should issue such orders or commit
such acts If savagery against thei,
neighbors, the world would riss
against such atrocities. The mum
Der who may be engaged in such dia
bolical work cannot change the char
acter of the deeds committed.
Let us hope that all of your read
ers will support the true democrati
4 policy to give the Filipinos their in
4 dependence at the earliest opportuD
,Iity. In such Q policy lies the onl,
safety from the horror and dishono
J, Of an imperialistic policy such q
the republican partYhas foisted vi

City Council Meeting.

The city council met in regular
session at the city hall Monday even
ing, Mayor limerick presiding. A
lot OF bills for street work and
waterworks repairs were paid. A
bill for SIS, 100 from Myrtle Harvey
was presented. This was for injur-
les sustained from defective side
walks and was referred to the street
and alley committee. A petition
for the extension of water mains
to Lampert's addition was referred
to the water committee. A trans
cript Of the judgment in the case OF
Overpeck VS. City was accepted and
action was deferred until the time
for making the annual tax levy. The
petition OF Chas. A. Marshall and
others for use Of city, water for a
school house to be erected on the
Henry Leedy place was referred to
the water committee with power to
act. T,
The mayor stated that he had been
in correspondence with the Elkhorn
railway officials relative to the de-
pot removal question; that they had
assured him that they had no desire
to antagonize the people here, and
that if the people Of Rapid City de.
sired it, they would move the depot
up town at an early day, though
they did not say just when. In view Of
this, all action on the resolution
passed at the last meeting ordering
the railway com pany to open Ninth
street was deferred for thirty days
Ii the depot is moved within tina
time, well and good, but if not, i
looks like the city would settle thu
matter definitely and declare tn
streetopen again.
The committee chosen to presen'
the matter ofsewerage to the council
was on hand for duty. The mayo
appointed Aldermen Patrick, Over
peck aud Dodge to locate the bound
