Provo, March 2S.-With six minutes

basket ball team quit the field in its
match game with the Brigham Young
academy team here tonight. At the time
the local boys were ahead by a score Of

must surely have been winners by a
larger score. The Colorado boys claimed
that the umpires were unfair, and that
the Provo boys were unnecessarily rough
In their playing.
When the kick was registered against
the umplreS. the Provo team offered to
substitute another official, but the visit
ors would not go on with the game and
forfeited il TO the home team. This un-
Fortunate ending spoiled what would have
otherwise been an interesting game.
The visitors did some remarkable pass
ing during the contest, but We're not able
to throw baskets as well as the home

the local team from the field and five

COUNCILS REGULAR MEETING
City Council Disposes OF Accumulated Busi=
ness at the Regular Meeting at the
City Hall Monday Night.

Indebtedness, but thought their status
should be established in court
Alderman Patterson brought up the
matter of mud puddles and holes on
Fifth street and moved that steps be
tahen to drain the streets into aa-
joining sewers. The motion was lost.
Alderman Patterson also moved that
steps be taken to fill up the puddles
opposite O'Grady's house and oppo-
site the Palladium office. A substi
tute was moved that the matter be
referred to the committee on streets
and the substitute was carried.
The bill of Ole Johnson, s122.50 for
the construction of sidewalks, was
allowed and ordered paid.
The board of health bills were al
lowed from the emergency fund All
other bills were referred.
The committee to prepare an ordin-
ance for the licensing OF merry go
rounds asked for and was granted
more time.
Alderman Reade brought up the
matter of the collection of licenses
and the absence of the city engineer,
when wanted to furnish grades for
improvements. Mayor Register agreed
to take up the matters and adjust
them.
Herder Hastings told the council
his troubles with regard to the gather
ing of cattle for the city herd in the
morning. The Mayor said he would
consider the matter and attempt to
adjust it.
The council found itself in guam
dary regarding some OF the salaries.
The CITY auditor gets $500 year un-
der the new salary ordinance, but
the appropriation for last year was
only $500. Consequently the fund for
his salary is exhausted and the coun-
Gil decided it could do nothing until
new appropriation was made. In
the meantime the city auditor Will
have to wait for his pay until Septem-
Der at least. The members OF the
council find themselves in the same
boy as members of the board OF equal
ization and cannot draw pay for that
service until an appropriation is made

THE LOSS OF LIFE is HEAVY
Seventy=Five is the Latest Estimate of the
Loss of Life in the Floods at OakfOrd
Park, Pa.

Jeanette, Pa, July Tt Is now
estimated thar the loss of life through
Sundays food and cloudburst at Oak
ford park will reach seventy-five.
Twenty bodies have been recovered.
Many are foreigners and have not been
identified.
Brush creek valley is a scene of
devastation and ruin. From the sight
of the break of the dam at Oakford
park to Wilmerding, taking in the
towns of Jeanette. Penn. Larimer.
Greensburg, Irwin, Burrell and Manor,
the awful power of the rushing waters,
following the breaking of the dam, is
apparent on all sides. The damage to
property will not be less than 500 .000.
Almost with the first streak of day
light bureau was opened here, where
the names of the identified dead recov-
cred and the missing were registered
together with a description of the bod
les recovered but not identified.
The catastrophe was caused by a
waterspout, which flooded Brush creek
q small stream running past the park
The disaster occurred late in the
afternoon, when the park was crammed
with pleasure seekers.
Buildings Are Swept Away.
The suddenness of the disaster, to
gether with the attendant features
was pathetic Most of the people were
attracted to the park by the Children's
orchestra, a Juvenile musical organiZa
ton, which gave its initial open all
concert. The band was playing wher
the storm came up. Many of the mu
sicians, who were girls, grabbed theil
instruments and ran into the building
used as a roller coaster, to the laugh
ing gallery and the tent covering the
merry go round
Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1903-07-07

All these buildings, with the eXcep-
tiOn of the roller coaster building and
portion Of the merry y-gO-rOund, were
Swept away. The exact number OF
persons who We're seeking shelter in
the buildings from the storm is not
known. Witnesses of the disaster say
at least 200 were housed in the places
of shelter, while the officials of the
Pittsburg, Mckeesport and Greensburg
Street hallway company assert that
most of the persons in the buildings
escaped.
In addition to the loss of life in the
park many persons were drowned in
the valley below the dam. Houses
were washed away in all the towns
along the little stream and hundreds
of persons were thrown into the water.
A ma aiority of these were picked up by
rescuing parties. but many were
drowned
Every Bridge Washed Away.
The greatest property damage done
by the food in Brush creek was in the
vicinity of Irwin, the loss falling most
heavily on the Pennsylvania railroad.
The estimated loss of property there
it is said, will reach $250.00O. Reports
show every bridge along the creek was
| washed away.
The search for bodies among the de
bris along Brush creek has begun. AL
during the night bodies We're seen il
the swirl of the creek.
The calamity at Oakford park
though on a much smaller scale so fal
as loss of life is concerned, is similar
| in it's cause to that of the great Johns
town flood of fourteen years ago Ii
that case, as in this, dam whose wa
| ters were swollen by sudden hoo(
following on a period OF rainy weather
burst and wrought ruin and great de
| struction of life.
