Looking backward It is now five years since the Outlook people came to McDonald. It was the season that will long be remembered in every part of this country as the "wet fall". Rain fell almost every day for months. Roads were impassable, and for many days at a time the sun would not be seen for the clouds and mists. Everything dripped, and occasionally would come a flood of water that would submerge all the valleys and sweep away costly bridges. One of these deluges, the greatest of all and the most astonishing cataclysm that, so far as known, ever rushed up upon this country, had occurred in August. A hundred thousand dollars' worth of county bridges were ruined in that memorable August flood of the year 1888. In McDonald Robb and Robinson Runs rose in vast waves over the whole lower part of town, and much property was lost. This wet fall continued until we arrived in the latter part of October, by wagon, thro' a sea of mud, from Canonsburg, and the night we stored the ! nucleus of our embryo printing office in GOEHRING's-now FERGUSON's-stable this was one of the most desolate looking towns on the continent. Under the most favorable circumstances, with bright skies and balmy air, McDonald with its straggling shanties, and its hard-working, struggling people plunging half-dressed to and fro thro' the chaotic streets, to and from their labor-this McDonald was a forlorn looking village. There was scarcely the sign of a boardwalk in the place. There was no light at night except what glimmered thro' the little windows of where oil lamps and coal fires burned. There were a thousand places where a man could break his neck. It didn't look at all like a newspaper town. But what changes in these five years! Natural gas has been poured in on us in vast volumes for heat and light. A city of fine streets has come. We've had the greatest oil field in the world. We have an electric light plant. We have a hundred such marks of civilization as were not dreamed of by the most sanguine five years ago. No western town has moved as we have in this valley; and if we go on at the same rate for another five years, we shall have a succession of adjoining boroughs extending from Midway to Oakdale; electric cars will fly between those points; and a thousand improvements, social, political, moral and industrial, such as BELLAMY in his "Looking Backward" would have considered too visionary for insertion in that European dream.

KINSKY, SMITH Last Sunday morning at Midway August KINSKY, a German miner, tried to commit suicide by shooting himself in the breast. He died Monday evening and was buried Wednesday. Domestic trouble is said to have been the cause. On Thursday morning a little daughter of John SMITH, a miner at Rend's shaft, was so badly burnt by the explosion of a lamp that she died the same day. She was about ten years old. Funeral on Friday afternoon.

T. R. H. JOHNSTON is acknowledged to be the best Coroner the County ever had. He is a colored man whom the Republicans elected to the office in order to hold the colored vote. It was an unimportant position, which the party could throw like a bone to the colored people. But Mr. JOHNSON did not neglect the business of the office, as previous incumbents did, and he has become as indispensable to the public as the District Attorney himself. *Mr. JOHNSTON's name is spelled two ways in the article.

James M. FARRAR Some one sends the Outlook a copy of the Brooklyn Eagle in which is a picture of a 5-year-old boy and the following sketch, which will interest many Outlook readers: A chubby, rosy-cheeked little chap was Dr. James M. FARRAR, the pastor of the new Dutch Reformed church on Prospect Heights, when the above picture was taken. He was born of Scotch parentage in Candor, Washington county, Pa., a little town of some two hundred inhabitants. Although bro't up in accordance with the rigid precepts of Scotch Presbyterianism, the doctor managed to get his share of the pleasures of childhood. He was fond of all outdoor sports and athletic games but his favorite pastime was trapping, and innumerable muskrats, foxes and squirrels fell victims to his skillfully set snares. When he was 16 his family moved to New Wilmington, and he had an opportunity to continue his studies, commenced at Candor under the tuition of his mother. In speaking of his early ambitions the doctor said: "I wanted to be a minister because I thought that I could teach children and make the study of the Bible more interesting than did the good old pastor at Cando! r, who catechized me most rigidly." Later, however, the young man changed his mind and determined to study medicine. He was influenced by the family physician at New Wilmington, with whom he was a great favorite and who for a time was his preceptor in the study of physics. At 17, however, Dr. FARRAR finally determined that he was called to preach the gospel. When told the doctor, who had been his teacher, of his intentions the old physician, who was a bit given to the use of strong language, remarked: "It's spoiling a good doctor to make a d- poor preacher." At the Princeton Theological Seminary, where Dr. FARRAR studied, he gained a reputation as a scholar and immediately after his graduation he received a call from Harrisville, O. His next charge was at Worchester, O., and from there he was called to the Fourth Presbyterian Church of Philadelphia.

The place called "Tom's Run" is but little known to the people who are not miners. It is a valley about four miles long opening into the Chartiers Valley on the west side near Woodville. It has a population of 500 to 600, .. three or four companies operating there, and it is one of the most . mining districts in Allegheny county. In the lower valley is Federal post office; in the upper, Hickman; and about which nuclei are growing up good towns.

Mrs. RAES, a north of France woman who was shot and killed in a small riot over on the Monongahela River recently, was well known In McDonald. Some eighteen months ago she lived on the BOHEA property on O'Hara street back of Charles JOURDAIN's, and she was a person about whom there was considerable gossip. When shot, she and her husband and little girl were returning from a party in company with some other men, when a fight started and a man named Noel MAISON began shooting, and one of the balls passed thro' the woman's body. The murderer was taken to the Pittsburg jail, and at the same time was arrested and imprisoned a man named August BRESSYE, who is known to many McDonald people as a peaceable, well-doing man of considerable means saved from his earnings. Mr. and Mrs. LAVIE have been to Pittsburg to see BRESSYE; Mrs. BESS knows him well; and they are certain that he is guilty of no crime and will all go to the trial and testify to his good character.
