Lost His Life in Q Runaway,

1t becomes the sad duty Of the SENT1NEL
70 chronicle the sudden and untlmely death
Of Mr.. Augustus G. Flack, which occurred
In runaway accident on Saturday evening
Of last week. At the time of the accident
he was returning TO his home from nearby
store at Wheaton, q distance Of about one
mile from his home on the 7th street pike,
this county, where he had been to purchase
some articles for domestic use, when his
horse ran away. His lifeless body was found
beyond his homo lying on the pike and the
horse standing quietly nearby against q
fence, on by.road, without injury, and the
trap to which the horse was hitched was also
not in the least impaired. Nobody witnessed
the runaway, but 1t is supposed that the
horse SHE'D and Mr.. Flack in an unguarded
moment fell to one side of the vehicle with
his body hanging by one of his feet, proba-
bly, under the foot guard in the vehicle. He
was held in this position until the horse left
the pike for the by-road, after running at
least half mile, where the body dropped.
The rapid footbeats Of the horse In It's wild
dash were heard by persons living in close
proximity to the pike, who followed to find
Mr.. Flack corpse. His head and face were
terribly lacerated and bruised, wounds, 1t is
surmised, that were inflicted by blows from
the carriage wheels. The body bore no
scars. His coat on the inside Of the front
was nearly worn through and the hole
bore the appearance Of FRACTIONAL contact
with one OF the wheels.
1t is probable that death did not occur
until after he was disentangled from the
trap. as he bled very freely from the wounds
at the point where his body was found,
and suffered sensibly the agonizing torture
throughout the course the horse ran.
The horse is an old one, at least IS years
Of age, and had been In the service Of Mr. :.
Flack and bis daughter for q number of
years, who reposed all confidence In his safe
ty, though he is spirited driver. Why
the horse should take on the frantic condi-
ton that it did apparently, so frantic that it
passed its open home gate in the runaway,
is mystery that clouds the minds Of oil
who are acquainted with its nature.
Mr.. Flack was SO years of age and very
vigorous in health. He was q native of this
county and of German descent. He was
regarded as one of our foremost citizens.
Through his frugality, energy and capacity
to manage he had secured for himself one
of the most beautiful and productive farms
IN this county, containing upward Of 200
acres. He leaves three children-two sons
Ind daughter.

Cathedral Plans Approved.

Plans for the Episcopal Cathedral of St.
Peter and st. Paul, which lie to be erected on
Mount st. Albans, near West Washington,
overlooking the national capital, have been
approved by the cathedral chapter, com.
posed Of the Bishop of Washington and IA
Of the most prominent churchmen and lay.
men Of the diocese.
The private view Of the plans, which were
prepared by Henry Waugh, of Boston, and
g. F. Bodley, OF London, prominent archi-
tects, was given at the bishops house last
week. The proposed edifice will cost more
than $5,000,0O0. The diocese already owns
the ground which is comprised in the Cattle.
dral close. The small church, the sane
tuary and the buildings of the Cathedral
school, nearby, represent investment and
endowments Of nearly 100000.
The building, if erected according to the
present plans, will overshadow many Of the
European cathedrals. The total length Is
to be 476 feet, width 1856 feet. The central
tower will rise $50 feet above the foundation.
The apex Of the supporting arches being 90
feet above the floor. The total seating ca.
pacity Is to be 5000, allowing ample amount
of space for each person, and of this vast
audience, 1850 will be able to see the
preacher at the end of the nave, while oil
can hear him.
In style the cathedral is to be Gothic Of
the fourteenth century. The plan is that of
nave and alsles, transepts, choir and two
chapels. Double aisles are planned for the
nave. These latter will be especially useful
for monuments and memorial windows and
tablets. The choir terminates in an apsdal
sanctuary. The building is to be vaulted
In stone throughout.
The lighting Of the interior is by ample
clerestory windows. There are lower win.
dows In the aisles; but they are quite sub
ordinate. Two chapels are proposed at the
ends Of the choir aisles to be used for people
during choir services. Another proposed
feature is broad soffit, 8 feet @ inches wide,
forming the eastern arch of the central tower
This deep sweep of soffit or underside Of the
arch Is to be carved with figures OF angels
arranged In suitable design, the whole ap.
pearing as an angelic canopy.
The architects say 1.-THE first impression
on entering the cathedral will be the con-
tinuous height OF the main or central part
namely, the nave, choir and apse. The next,
and nearly as powerful a one, will be the
width, for, with the outer aisles and the
double range of columns on either side and
the transepts, the effect of the width will be
very considerable"
