THE TRAGEDY OF A CITY.

The other day in New York started out to
look for work He had been idle for number of days.
His famiIy-a wife and invalid daughter-were hreat
ened with Before departing he kissed his daughter
good-by, promising her that he would return soon
possible All that day he tramped the of New
York looking for work And when evening he
was unwilling to go home to announce his failure So
he slept in the park and during the night his daughter
died. Two days later, still without employment he
drifted home and learned of his daughters death.
Through the aid of friends she had been buried the
morning of his arrival in cemetery number of miles
from the home. The man had been rudging about the
city for three days and he foosore and weary but
when he learned of his loss he turned quickly and started
for the cemetery. Arriving there he tainted from
haustion on his daughters new-made grave.
This is what may be called "fncky" age. Indvid-
uas quick to resent the crumped leaf The
well-toldo woman not only murmurs at any
rfce that is put upon him her, but shrks the
burdens that wise Providence has decreed that each
man and must bear. But compared with such a
tragedy the one which took place in New York, how
petty do those little dscomforts and those grievances
appear? Luxury is apt to deaden the sympathies but
sternest poverty could deaden the affection which
that father felt for his daughter 1t is affection like this
not money, social position, that gorifes life That
fathers love made him something nober than the solid
workingman pursuing his weary search for work The
tragedy of his daughters death has put him plane
with all the great of the earth whom suffering has
immortalzed.
If one knew the future he might say that such love
such tragedy, cruel and unnecessary. But
no knows the future has any the right to
Judge the nscrutable DEGREES of Providence Moreover
no one who knows anything of the great and enduring
power OF human love, say that its life merely of
this life That fathers love will live longer than his
story will be remembered 1t will lift him I'D to some
thing higher just his sad story will inspire to better
things all those who read it.

THE pApAL SUCCESSION.

The cable report that Leo has expressed desire
that Cardinal Got succeed the papal throne, may or
NAV not be true probably is for Gott has been held
in great esteem by Leo Kill But is not likely that
the preference of the will have any great weight
with the members of the sacred college. Living they
would respect his wishes without question, but dead,
they would scarcely be influenced by wish in welghty
a matter the naming of the pope.
The popes preference for Gotti is based on his ad-
miraon for the character of the Gott IS OF the
religious life He is said know little and mix not
all in politics This substantially true of Cardinal
Pecc before his election to the papacy. He greatly
venerated for his virtues and pety Gott But the
conclave that elected Leo was not by means the
body that will be called to elect his successor
The cardinals feel strongly the march OF mod
ideas than did their predecessorat least they
prone to recognize and admit that the world does
progress They will probably require than dom

they will sit in the place of Leo
AS evidence of the fact that the conc1ave is not
affected by the preferences of the dead pope the Of
Leo himself might be cited He not favorite with

himself quite positively in the matter of the succession,

Under the circumstances it is hardly to be expected
that Gott will be elected The sacred college is
reconced to the loss of the temporal power than it
at the time of the last conclave but the body is much
likely to elect progressive rather than reactonary

ed but that it might be such Italian SaoIli who is
very broad man, Rampoa who is credited with be-
ing a profound diplomat, is quite possible. But that
cardinal who is not member of the cura resident
of Rome is almost, if quite, outside the range of
probability. Hence the mention of Cardinal Gibbons in
connection with the papacy is merely complimentary
1t is out of the question that the discussion of the

STATE EMPLOYS AN
ACCOUNTANT WHO
WATCHES ITS MINES
Auditor VERSIONS Plan to Keep
Track of Ore Mined on Prop.
erty Belonging to State Is
Adopted at Hibbing.

In keeping with the intention of the
state auditor to inquire more closely
into the mining operations on state
lands, as announced in T h Glob q
some weeks ago, the plan of state
accountant right on the spot has been
introduced at one of the mines in the
vicinity of Hibbing.
AT the Burt open pit, just outside Of
Hibbing, which is now very actively in
operation, the state has a man regu-
larly stationed whose sole duty it is to
keep tally on every car of ore taken out
of the portion of the mine which is To-
Gated upon the land leased from the
state. This mine is peculiar from the
fact that 1T embraces both land that is
owned in fee and land that is leased
from the state. Upon the ore product
of the portion owned by the state the
operating company is required by law
to pay the state royalty of 25 cents
per ton, and it is to the end that there
may be no misunderstanding as to
what portion of the output of the mine
is liable to that royalty that the car ac-
countant has@been employed
A new map of this property just re-
ceived by S. G. Iverson, state auditor.
shows that about one-quarter of the
land now stripped belongs to the state.
Returns which have been made to
the state auditor show that in forty
eight hours last week 900 tons of
ore were taken from this mine, and it is
estimated that the output for this year
from the portion owned by the state
will be 100000 tons. Thus far this is
the only case in which a man is en-
ployed at mine on state lands to look
after the states interests, but Mr.. liver
son has announced that he intends to
look into the mining operations much
more closely than has been the GUS
tom heretofore, and it is to be pre-
sumed that the plan will be still fur

counter cases in the Alaskan boundary
matter have been exchanged within the
time limit. The counter case of the
United States last Friday was deliver
ed to the British charge Of emk<Asy

bassy, so that each side is now ready
for the next step. namely, the prepara-

The British government has express
ed desire to see the originals of the
many excellent charts and maps which
are the main reliance of the American
agent These include maps that never
before have been mentioned in connec-
ton with the case and which the state
department has spent much time and
money in securing from the most out
of the way places. The department has
acceded to the British request. Otis T..
Cartwright, of Nebraska, who already
has been connected with the American
side, has been named ais assistant agent
to assume cafeaof the original maps.

RESULTS OF THE
LATEST JOHNSTOWN
Sixteen Identified Dead and $500, 900
Loss at Jeanette, Pa.

JEANETTE. Pa, July GAS re-
suit of the breaking of<Oakford Park
dam yesterday twenty persons are
known to be dead and sixteen are miss
ing. The property loss in the valley
will reach $1,500,000 and the distress
is so great that outside relief will have
to be asked for.
From a happy prosperous valley this
region in single day has been trans
formed into a great household of
mourning.
All day long hundreds of willing
hands pulled away the great piles of
debris in the search for the missing
residents of the valley. All during last
night and today volunteers searched
along the path of torrent.
While many men searched among
the debris for the dead. others called
the citizens of Jeannette together to
provide, means fsrelief for the suffer-
ing residents OF tie valley. Dozens of
families had been driven from their
homes and weret thrown on the charity
of the town. In a few minutes $1,000
was raised. ii was found, however,
that this sum wo&ld not be sufficient.
Jeanette wanted Ito care for it's own
needs and could have done so had noe
the merchants and business men gen.
orally been heavy losers.
There was a great crowd all day at
the pile of wfeckage heaped against
the railroad ennbankment east of town
and scattered oyer the bottom land. 1t
was here that the greater number of
uncovered bodies was supposed to be
buried. No more were found there,
