Portland, July 7. Death last
night ended the agony of pretty
Rosa Gereghino, an Italian girl, at
the Good Samaritan hospital. One
month ago while at play with a
party of companions on a dock near
her home, she tripped while ' run
ning at a rapid rate. Falling head
long, she thrust her 'bead with great
violence against her right kneecap.
Her teeth cut a deep gash in the
flesh and blood poison set in, 'from
whieh, coupled with exhaustion,
the little sufferer succumbed. T' -
This is one of the most peculiar
cases on record in Portland. It
was not thought that serious results
would follow the accident, but the
kneejomt began to swell and Dr. G.
Wilson was called in to treat the
wound. He at once recognized the
serious aspect and had the patient
removed to the Good Samaritan
hospital. A)though the physician
did all in the power of medical ju
risprudence to save her life, it
could not be done, and" last night
death claimed her as a victim. ,

' Kill I "ST of Seala.
; The increaed value of sealskins in
1900 Induced the lessees of the Pribilof
islands, the breeding grounds of the
seal herds, to kill 13,000 two-year-old
seals, whereas the rule has been not
to kill any seal which has not reached
the age of at least three years. If the
killing of two-year-olds is allowed to
pnntiniip it is certain that the seal
hard will soon be exterminated.

Swept Through a Park where
Hundreds of People were Spend

Their Lives--Other
News.
Greensburg, Pa., July 6. This
morning broke clear and bright ov
er the eceue of death and destruc
tion caused yesterday afternoon by
the breaking of the Oxford Park
dam, at a time when the pleasure
resort was filled with people enjoy
mg a sabbath outing It is now
estimated that nearly 50 lives were
lost between here and the town of
Jeannette.
The place where tbe awful disas
ter occurred is Oakford Park, three
miles from Greensburg and one
mile from Jeannette. It was "con
sidered the prettiest park between
Altoona and Pittsburg. The Pitts
burg, Greensburg & McKeesport
Electric Railway Company laid the
resort out and every feature of - the
metropolitan park was incorporat
ed in its beauty. Hundreds were
in the habit ot visiting Oakford ev
ery summer day, and on Sunday
the crowds are immense, lhe Park
lies in a ravine beside Brush Creek,
1 small, shallow stream. A hich
embankment kept the creek in its
course. An artificial lake had been
built above the park proper, and to
held the 20 acres ofwater an im
mense wall of stone had been con
structed. -
Yesterday there were fully 1,000
people at the park owing to the.
beautiful character of the day. A
bout 3 o'clock in tbe afternoon a
light rain sprung up which increas
ed into a general downpour. The
merrymakers sought shelter in the
buildings covering the theatre, res
taurant, merry-go-rounds, etc.
An electric storm of the greatest
violence followed the general rain,
whila flashes of lightning and roars
of thunder were going on without,
the people, sheltered from the
storm's fury, believed themselves
safe. -
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon Jas.
McGrath, manager of the park, in-
snecisd the dam .which ..held v&e
lake, and at once determined that
the lives of those in the park were
in danger. He summoned all the
attaches of the park and ordered
that the people be notified to leave
at once. Many refused to heed the
advice and had to be forcibly driv
en from their shelter. Those who
left early were saved, but others
who lingered rather than face the
severe storm were lost. ' -.
At 4:30 o'clock in the afternoon
the ceek had become to swollen
that four inches of water began
flowing over the 400 feet, of em
bankment which lined the pars. A
half-tiour afterwards tbe dam which
had held back the waters of the ar
tificial lake broke, and with a mad
rush a wall of water 25 feet high
swept down the ravine and valley
below, carrying everything before
it. Frantic men,' women and little
children endeavored to escape. Ma-
nv of the belated ones were drown
ed or were killed in the Jam of 'de
bris that rode on the crest of the
torrent. ' ' "
A street car standing at the little
station about "ready to leave for
Jeannette was hurled from the track
and- the ? unfortnnate 1 people
who were passengers were carried to
their deaths in the mad waters.
A dispatch from Irwin, a town
further up Brush Creek, states that
the little stream was suddenlyswol
len by a terrific cloudburst that
happened two miles' above Irwin
shortly after 3 o'clock in the after
noon. At 2 o clock today the num
ber of dead is not known, but it is
estimated that no less than 50 per
sons lost their lives. :

Dr. Darrin, Hotel Revere, Alba
ny, uear ir: in answer w your
communication asking me to make
a statement of my case. I- most
willingly do so, if by so doing any
one afflicted has I was might have
their attention called to the success
with which you treated me, as you
know, I consulted you aa regarding
a very serious case of facial paraly
sis, the entire side of the face being
completely paralyzed. ; I could not
shut the eye, having no control ov
er the lid;, the lower lid was droop
,ed down, and the lower side of the
face badlv drooped, the corner of
the mouth badly drawn down.
Any one can imagine the condition
of a person's mind under such cir
cumstances, I had almost 'given
up all hopes of eyer, being myself
again, ontu I consulted you and
you assured me that ycu could cure
me. I commenced treatment at
once, and ' commenced to improve
from the start, and inthree months
treatment found myself entirely
cured. I make this statement wil
lingly, that any one sufferiug as I
have may avail themselves of your
great skill. - -

a double reason to be congratulated
on this occasion as he was totally
deaf for years, and in spite of his
advanced age, his hearring was re
stored by Dr. Darrin, now located at

University Park. .Perllfini, Or.
April 2b, 1899. to whom it may
concern and encourage, to friends
who have suffered like myself, the
loss of hearing. On April 24th I
called uu Dr. Darrin, whom I be
lieved to be a ski lied aurist and phy
sician, to restore my hearing. He
applied his remedies and electricity
to one ear and cured tbe deafness
in a few minutes. Then he turned
his attention to the other ear, which
did not seem to yield so readily.
For this ear the doctor- gave me
medicine to use at home, which I
am now using. I think it the duty
of all who are afflicted to have their
bearing restored if possible, and I
know of no one whom I think more
skilled than Dr. Darrin.

WHAT EUKTHER TREATMENT DID FOE
, REV. DR. DOANE. . -
To the Editor of the Herald:
Some time, ago I said something of
regaining toy hearing under the
treatment of Dr. Darrin, of which I
had suffered for several years. On
the first application the deafness of
one ear was remedied. I applied
tbejmedicine faithfully and went
again to the doctor who succeeded
entirely in restoring the lost sense
of heairing, so that when I went out
on the street it seemed to be the
noisest city I was ever in. My
hearing still remains distinct, in
both ears equally good. , "
