Struck by a Storm.

One OF the heaviest storms of the
year, and sf brief duration, swept over
st. Louis Wednesday afternoon. The
furious, wind tore through the worlds
fair grounds, killing Theodore Rich
ter, florist, probably fatally injur-
ing A. II. Clark. carpenter, and
seriously injuring seven other work
men, beside causing damage to worlds
fair buildings and other property
generally throughout the city to the
extent OF $4,000. The day had been
extremely warm, the temperature
registering "a degrees. Suddenly the
sky began to grew dark, and soon af-
ter the storm broke with the force of
gale. At the worlds fair grounds
the agricultural building was struck
by the gale and six laborerS working
on Scairolding were hurled to the
ground. Theodore Richter, a florist
from kirkwood suburbs, was on the
ground running to shelter when a fly
ing plank struck him. The worlds
fair fire department turned out and
hastily dug the injurged from the de-
briS and hurried them tn the hospital
A. Il. Clark was SO badly injured that
il is believed he will die.

WHITE MAN LYNCHED.
Mob Takes Him From Victims s

Despite the efforts of the victims
father, Sheriff Richards Of Asotin
county Wis, who had sworn in 25 de-
puties to guard the man, William
Hamilton, Il well-to do farmer, the
self-cOnfcSSed murderer OF little
Mabel Richards, WAS forcibly taken
from the ASotin county Jail shortly
after midnight and lynched by mob
Of more than / 900 men which had
been congregatins all day from all
parts OF ASotin county.
About -. IL o'clock band of men
their faces concealed with handker-
chiefs, marched to the Jail The
officers and guards were swept aside
and the keys taken from the iailer
The bars of the cell had to he sawed
before the door could bc opeucu.
Hamilton was then dragged r.om the
prison and into the yard.
Meanwhile another band of masked
men had marched To the Jail. They
kept back the crowd which had wait
ed all night for the lynching. Guard
cd by several masked men the mob
came from the Jail with Hamilton
followed 10y other members. Then
the man who had been guarding the
Jail formed about captive and captors,
and kept the crowd away When the
lynchprs with Hamilton reached First

Wanted to confess. He did so.
Finally he asked that his jewelry and
trinketS he had be given; his father
and mother and it was promised that
this would be done.
Then there was another delay.
The manner of Hamilton'S death was
being discussed. Some wanted To
torture him, but it was decided To
hang him. a mask was put over the
mans head, a rope around his neck
thrown over the guy wire and seized
by many OF the lyncheaS. When they
were certain he was dead the body
was left suspended. The crowds then
left.

Sarto, Venetion Cardinal Elevated
to the Popal Throne.
DID NOT WANT THE HIGH OFFICE
Ollie Church.

Cardinal Jos Sarto, patriarch of
Venice, was elected pope of>the Ro-
man Catholic Church at the Vatican
at Rome on Tuesday morning of last
week in succession TO Leo NH. He
was born at ReiSc June -, 1875, and
created cardinal June II, 1893. The
new pOntiff decided upon the name OF
Plus y. When the count showed the
| necessary two thirds OF the total num-
Der or votes cast had been obtained
the doors OF the SiStine chapel were
opened by the secretary Of the con
clave, Mgr. Merry Del Val, and the
masters Of ceremonies were admitted
from Doyden College. The secretary
then asked the successful cardinal.
DO you accept the clcctiun?" ard re-
ceivcd reply in the Affirmative. All
throne canopies were then lowered
with the exception Of that of the sue
cesSful candidate.
The masters Of ceremonies next
conducted the new pope to the rob
ing closet where he laid aside his car
dinal robes, donned the white stock
ingS, red slippers, long white tunic.

Of the papal Office. lie returned to
the chapel and was seated on the
chair placed on the highest step Of the
altar, where the cardinals approached
one by one and kissed the foot and
then the hand Of the prelate and re-
teiyed the c reelection of new pope.
The new pope was then given the fish
erman'S ring which he Immediately
returned for the purpose of having his
name engraved upon it.
The crowd around st. Peters
Square at 1850 Tuesday morning
watching the stove pipe over the suS-
tine chapel was the largest gathered
there since the conclave began. 1t
is estimated that $4,000 people were
around the square. Cardinal Mae
Chi, secretary 81 apOSt0T1c briefs, ap-
peared on the inside balcony OF the
vatican at ll:40 and maze the an
Aoureement ot tl'2 election. Later
he gave it to the crowd outside and
the people shouted Who Who?" the
name having not been heard by the
greater part of the throng Mac
Chi repeated the words in Italian in Il
louder voice saying Cardinal Sarto,
who calls himself Plus "
Following the announcement the
throng rapidly increased, the people
jamming through the doorwayS to
await the pope'S blessing. Five min
uteS after the announcement the new
pontiif appeared on the inside balcony
OF the vatican and blessed the people.
The new pope is one OF the most
| learned of the cardinals and is noted
for his liberal views. His charities
have gained him the affection of
multitudeS in his see. The election
at this moment looks like a compro-
mise as the pope, as Cardina Sarto, had
taken little part in the politics OF the
Vatican.
Upon certain occasions, but these
were very few, he has opposed the
plans OF Cardinal Rampolla Lco'S
secretary of state. Like Leo the new
pope has promise of long life. His
aged mother is Still alive and lives at
ReiSe, Sarto'S birthplace. The de-
tails of the voting are not yet known.
1T is learned, however, that Cardinals
Herrera, CretOni LaugcnicuX COuilie,
Mocenni and Svampa were too i'll To
20 TO the voting chamber.

SLEEPS IN TWO STATES.
And Neither Can Make Dual School
Director Relinquish ONCE.

Nebraska school authorities are en-
deavoring to get rid of school Pooh
Bah out in Siox county, but SO IA
without success. The state superin
tendent has tried to demand or com
pei him to take one of two offices, but
the incumbent doesn't really see how
he can.
District 80 of Sioux county borders
on the state line between Nebraska
and South Dakota. The director of
No. 80 owns land in each state, and
the state line runs through his house
leaving about half OF it in each state.
His sleeping apartment runs the full
width of the house, and his bed is sc
situated that no matter which way
his head points part OF him is asleep
in Nebraska and part in South Da-
kota.
lie is a director i'm both the South
Dakota and the Nebraska districts,
and although his Nebraska neighbors
have been trying to get him to choose
which job he wishes to hold and which
state he desires to claim as his resi-
ucHCc, i'c utCiiiltS I'd no elUiltr. lie
says that inaSmuch rs he owns pro-
perty in each state and resides i'm both
he is eligible To vote i'm both at each
school meeting held. He has a SON
in-law in South Dakota ard two sons
in Nebraska, and the combination is
able To win out at both Jh. Nebraska
and the South Dakota school elections
and TO make the old man director of
each.
Superintendent Fowler has notified
the district authorities that the man
must choose in which state he desires
To make his residence, holding that
there can be no construction of the
law which will permit man to vote
twice at elections. The old farmer
has retorted that he doesn't vote twice
at the election, but votes at two
different elections, and that so long as
South Dakota people do not kick about
him he cannot understand why Ne
braSka ShoGld.
He has been suspended by order OF
the superintendent until he makes his
choice, but he insists on taking part
in school affairs Notwithstanding
and Sioux county is 400 miles from
the state capital.

follows: Henry Naunt, cOlored, was
ordered to forfeit $50 Wednesday
morning, charged with being Il SuS-
piciouS person. He was arrested
Tuesday evening and had Il bag and
bilihoOk in his possession. The police
man said that Naunt was the cham
plOn chicken thief OF the world. 1t
was alleged that some time ago he
was sent to the work house for eigh-
teen months, where he admitted that,
in Homestead alone, he had stolen
from 5000 to 10000 chickens.

bank examiner could he appointed un-
der the present act, owing TO its de-
ticiencieS. The board was in session
for "A considerable time on the matter

written to the governor. AS the law
was interpreted, however, the board
decided that there was no fixed
method by which the banks could be
assessed equally and no method OF
collecting the assessment by the re-
spective county auditors. The act is
very general in its nature, simply pro-
viding for the appointment OF an ex-
aminer, at a salary of 81 500 per an
mum, and was passed in 1897. All the
other administrations let the matter
go by and the Legislature has never
