in a short time all were loaded into
cars and taken to the Hames & Wal
lac hotel at Waha, where first aid
remedies were administered. Mes
sages were sent to Cottonwood and
Lewiston and early in the afternoon
Coroner Vasser and Drs. F. p. Nourse
and o. G. Carssow were enroute to the
scene of the accident.
Temporary dressing were provided
for the injuries and the three injured
sisters were brought to st. Joseph s
hospital late in the afternoon. The
ambulance then returned to the lake
to secure Mr.. Herdiman, and the body
of Sister Mary Rose was brought to
the city in an auto hearse.
An examination of the automobile
and the road above the point where
the car left the grade shows that the
brakes of the machine were working
perfectly, as the wheels were locked
for at least 40 feet before the car letG
the road. 1t is stated that Mr.. nerdi-
man is an inexperienced driver and it
is presumed he became confused when
the car commenced to gain speed on the
hill and was unable to operate the ap-
pliances intended to give complete con-
troll of the machine at all times.
Sister Mary Rose was about 38 years
of age and before joining the Benedic-
tine order was Miss Bessie Hodges. A
sister, Mrs. Kelley, resides at St.
Maries.
Sister Patricia is sister of Father
John Condor, pastor of the Catholic
church at Newport, Wash, and sis
ter. of DR.. Edward Condor of Spokane.
She is seriously injured but the view
was expressed last evening that she
will recover.
Sister Augustine is a daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. John Uhlenkott of Cotton
wood. She is badly bruised but her
injuries are not regarded as serious.
Mr.. Herdiman is pioneer of the
Genesee section. He is about 81 years
of age and for many years was engag-
ed in farming. He retired from the
farm few years ago and has since
maintained his home in Genesee.
AS soon as the report of the accident
was received in Cottonwood the mother
superior and one of the sisters imme-
diately departed for the scene of tne
accident. They were driven by John
Meyer of the Cottonwood Milling COM
pany, but did not reach Waha until
after the injured sisters had been
brought to Lewiston, They arrived in
the city early in the evening and ac-
companied the remains of Sister Mary
Rose to Cottonwood Tuesday.
1t is evident that Sister Mary Rose
was killed instantly Her neck was
broken and the body was badly crush
ed. 1t is presumed she was first thrown
from the car and that the car rolled
over her and her body was caught in
such a manner as to be carried down
the embankment with the car.-Tri-

EXPLOSION BURNS MACHINE.
Wiggin Machine Threshing on Coram
Place Burned Tuesday Morning.

The first loss to be caused by smut
explosion on the prairie occurred Tues
day morning when the Wiggin thresh-
ing machine, threshing grain on the
John Coram place eight miles north of
Grangeville took fire following a smut
explosion and was burned to the
ground. The separator man, John
Neis, received some burns that for
tunately did not prove to be serious.
Rube Overman, who farms the place,
lost about hundred sacks of wheat in
the fire, and his losses were covered by
insurance.
This is the first smut explosion of
the year on the prairie, although there
have been several in the Palouse sec
tion this season. A large number of
machines in the Palouse section have
been equipped with fire protection ap-
paratus upon a plan furnished by the
experiment station of the Washington
State College, and also apparatus paten-
ted by the U. s. department of agricul'
ture for the benefit of threshing
machine owners. The first smut ex'
plosion in threshing machine working
near Pullman this year caused nc
serious loss, the machine being equip
ped with fire protection and the crew
being drilled to put out fire in case OF
an explosion. In this case last mention
ed the damage to the machine was moi
large and in the course of few day.
the machine had been repaired and wal
soon at work again.
The Free Press has printed severa
articles in recent issues giving the re
suits of the department of agriculture
and also the Washington State Colleg'
experiment station in conducting al
Investigation of the causes of the smu
explosions and the best means ant
methods of preventing total loss O
machines and grain. Plans for appara
tus can be obtained by writing to th'
State college at Pullman, or by making
a personal visit to the school.
