An Unwise Editor.

tits folly for outsiders to dip into
family rows, and the outsider WHO'S
thus foolish, always gets the worst
of it. But the trouble that is pre-
vailing now in Washburn, Mclean
county, is becoming a public affair
and that is our excuse for comment
ing thereon.
A new editor went to that thriv-
ing town last spring, and his policy
appears to be one to antagonize the
forces that exist, and thus secure
for himself a share of the business.
Sometimes this policy pays - in
some localities-but Washburn in
not one of those localities. His
special aversion seems to be Mr..
John Satterlund, and anyone who
says anything in commentator of
what MI Satterlund has done for
Mclean county, lays himself open
to abuse from the Miner.
Mclean county was a good deal
of a wilderness for a number of
years after the FIRST settlement went
there, and it's present prosperous
condition is very largely due to the
influx of settlers, brougt there thro
the agency, direct or indirect, Of
the Bismarck & Washburn railroad
Most people who have lived on the
slope for the last twenty years know
that the advent of this railroad is
largely due to the energy and per.
tinacity of John Satterlund. Per.
haps the object of Mr.. Satterlund
in working for the development Of
Mclean county was partly that he
desired to improve the value of his
own property. What it it was I
Who works to develop any locality
city OF county-except to further
his own interests, more or less? II
is no wonder that the business men
of Mclean county, rather than see
abuse of old timers, will withdraw
their patronage from any newspa.
per that will indulge in such a
practice. Youthful newspaper men
who call themselves Journalists
have much to learn; some learn
their lessons easily, without the
necessity Of a stone wall falling on
him. Editor Harris of the Wash.
burn Miner does not learn SO easily
and knowledge Of the world and its
ways is being pounded into HIM

Were Killed. 81,

Pitsburg, July e-An American flag in
directly caused the death of four persons
during an electrical storm here. The flag,
soaked with water, became heavily
charged by an electric wire, causing it to
break and fall into q pool of water. The
pool was alive with 1000 volts, and four
persons met death by falling into it.
Shortly after the wire fell into the pud-
die, Joseph Visa, while running thru the
binding rain to seek shelter, stepped into
the pool and dropped dead.
Those who saw Visa fall were unable
to rescue him at the time, and while
means of recovering the body were under
discussion u carriage containing seven
persons came down the street. Shouts OF
warning were not understood. One horse
fell into the electrified water and was
paralyzed. The occupants of the carriage
alarmed by the unexplapinable falling Of
the horse and by the frantic cries of the
onlookers, began to jump from the vehicle

Is called the pontif1cal family, headed by
Cardinal Rampolla and including all the
private chamborlains, were there. Near
est to the bed stood the imposing, tall
figure of the cardinal grand pen1tenttary,
Seraf1no Vannutelli with the pope's con-
lessor to hear the last confession Of the
departing pontift. Then the priest apos-
tolic approached bearing the viaticum,

grand penitentiary. Pope Leo feebly re-
lated by the council of Trent, and finally

EMMY pronounced by the grand peniten-
tiary. The heads of the great religious
orders who were present granted the
pope the special indulgences which they
have the privilege Of comforting. Then
came the touching prayers for a passing
soul and part Of the gospel. the Lords

fell on their knees
The pontiff, raising his almost trans
parent fingers with feeble effort pro-
nounced In scarcely audible words his
benediction on the sacred college and on
all present and then sank back on the
pillows. There was scarcely fearless
eye In the whole assemblage; the sobs
of the pope's relatives were plainly heard.
Deep silence fell, only broken new and
again by murmured prayer or a pious
ejaculation.
In the portion Of the loggia Of Raphael,
adjoining the papal apartments. were the
families of count Ricardo Pecci and
Count Moroni. the pope's nephew.

THE EARLIER STOKES
Death Results from a cIoudburst Which
Breaks Dam.

Greensburg, Pa, July ga waterspout
striking in the vicinity Of Oakford Park
Sunday afternoon created flood that
caused great loss of life and property
1t is known that at least twenty per-
sons lost their lives and rumors place the
number Of dead at more than 100, but
thus far only three or four bodies have
been recovered.
At o'clock rain began to fall In tor
rents. Half an hour later the cloudburst
occurred and the umbrellas carried by the
crowds of people were crushed like egg
shells. The waters in the lake at Oakford
Park began to swell, and Manager James
McGrath, believing that there was danger
of break in the walls of the dam, hur-
ried among the crowds of pleasure seekers,
who had gathered under the roofs of the
eating stands, the merry round, the
theater the dancing pavilion and other
buildings and warned them to run to the
hills.
The park is located in a ravine about a
fourth of a mile wide and mile long. The
people, being protected from the rain were
loath to leave the cozy places, and not
until Mr. McGrath and his assistant en-
tered each building in turn and simply
drove the crowds out into the rain did they
realize that the parks managers were in
earnest.
Half an hour after the building had been
cleared Of people the waters mounted the
walls Of the dam, and within a few min
utes water to the defth of five feet was
flowing over the entire length of 400 feet

SCULPTOR A SUICIDE,
Detected at Refusal of His Mckinley
Memorial Design, John Don
oghue Kills Himself.


New Haven, Conn.,, July 6.-The body
of the man who committed suicide by
shooting in Whitneyville last Thursday
has just been identified as that of Sculptor
John Donoghue of New York. The identi-
fication was made by D. H. Robbins, Of
New York, who said that few days ago
he received a note from Donoghue an
nouncing his intention to commit suicide.
Donoghue's suicide is said to have been
the result of dependency due to the re-
lection of his design for a $4,000 me-
mortal to the late President Mckinley,
which it is proposed to erect in Phila-
delphia.
Donoghue had executed some notable
pieces of sculpture that were highly
praised, both at home and abroad. He
was of modest and retiring disposition,
however and failed of the recognition that
he felt was his due. The rejection Of his
Mckinley memorial plan caused him to
lose heart completely.
