TO EDIT THE TEN COMMAND
MENTS.

Very Rev. William Mo.daunt Fur
neaux, dean Of Winchester, has been
intrusted by the Conyocation Of Cantcr'
bury with the task OF preparing an ab.
Judgement OF the Ten Commandments,
TO be submitted for consideration at 4
meeting Of the Convocation in May.
The Conyocation is now sitting IL
Westminster under the presidency Of
the Archbishop OF Canterbury and has
had before it, among other matters, a
proposal to modify and shorten the
second, fourth and tenth command
mcnts, and it is with these three that
the Dean Of Winchester will be con-
cerncd. As 2 sample Of the form
which the abridgemcnt will take, the
Dean said yesterday that probably he
would suggest that the tenth command
ment be abbreviated to read simply
Thou shalt moi covet" The modlti-
cations or The others have not yet been
considered by him. Opposition to any
change from the traditional lnterpreta-
ton Of the deca!ogue is expected from
the -conformists.

field Consolidated Mines Co. filed
suit against the state and county

null and void the assessment OF

asserts that the leyying of such

declare it null and void. Briefly
the position of the company is that
while the $500 valuation may be
permissible on idle property il
should not hold on property where

ANOTHER FATAL
HUNTING ACCIDENT

The body Of an Italian named
Pete Declementi was found Mon
day on Rock. creek, ten miles south
of Golc1nda. under conditions
which indicated that he Lad ac-
cidentally killed himself while
out hunting. His shotgun lay
only a short distance from the body
and a nasty wound in his left thigh
was the unmistakable cause Of the
mans death. The body was
brought to Golconda and Under
taker Miller of this place was
summoned and prepared the body
for burial. Mr.. Miller stated
that it was his opinion that the
man had been dead or at least
eight days. In preparing the body
the gun wads we're found in the
wound. which proves almost con-
clusiyey that the man had shot
himself by the accidental discharge
of his gun. The shot entered his
leg at the thigh severing the main
artery and evidently causing him
TO bleed to death.
The deceased had been working
for some time at Bernsrd's ranch
on Rock Creek and 1t Is believed
that he was hunting, when the ac-
cident occurred. The deceased has
a brother working for Thomas
Nelson, who has been notified of
the accident and who is expested
to arrive at Golconda to take
charge of TIE remains. Humboldt

POISONOUS WELL
KILLS EMiGRANTS

San Bernardino, Oct. 16.-One
of the most pitiful tragedies Of
the NJ jjave desert in recent years
was discovered in Inyo county yes
terday when a party of travellers
crossing the hot sand waste came
upon the family of George Nc
Dermott. The McDermott family,
consisting Of the wife, the husband
and five small children, started
overland several weeks ago for
Mill Valley, Utah. Becoming
short of water. il is thought
they drank from one Of the
numerous poisonous springs to be
found On the desert. Their horses
and COW first became sick and the
COW died. Then McDermott fell
i'll and died six days after.
The distracted widow and mother
then took up the rcins and drove
the nearly dead horses for miles
over the desert searching for
water until she, too. vas stricken
i'll at the side of her dead
husband.
At this moment a party of
rescuers came upon the family.
Mrs. McDermott and her children
were placed in the wagon of Pete
Blackburn and are being rushed
to Mill Valley. Blackburn. who
returned yesterday to San Bernar-
dino, reported Mrs. McDermott
could scarcely live until she
reached Mill Valley. 1t is thought
the children will recover.
