Terrific Gales Frustrate Wellman Crossing
The Atlantic—Rescued From Balloon
By Ship Crew.
On Board Steamship Trent, at Sea,
12 (Midnight), Oct. 18.—To the Asso-
ciated Press (by United Wireless.) —
We sighted the airship America at 5
a. m. today. She signaled us by the
Morse code, and the wireless played
a wonderful part in requesting me to
stand by her till daylight. We kept
a boat close by her till dawn broke,
when she signalled that she could
not launch her lifeboat, and asked
me to keep close in order that a line
might be attached. We made sev-
eral futile attempts to attach a line.
Then the America wireless said that
she was coming down to the water
as soon as possible and drop her boat
if I could stand by and pick the boat
up.
•Meanwhile our lifeboats kept
efforts to pick up some news of
navigators .
Having been spoken by
presumably in the vicinity of Nan-
tucekt, at 12:45 p. m. on Sunday, it
was a surprise when the news came
that the America and encountered the
Trent, homeward bound from Ber-
muda, in a longitude and latitude
nearly 400 miles southward and only
230 miles northwest of Bermuda.
Thrilling must have been the exper-
iences of the America's commander
and crew as they were thus swept
out of their course.
Craft Suffered Severely.
Further wireless messages reach-
ing New York tonight say that one
of the America's motors had broken,
which made more serious the predi-
and the stories of improper conduct
connected with them. The committee
was in session in Oklahoma last sum-
mer. damon positively denied the
testimony given by Senator Gore on
the witness stand. He accounted for
his presence in Washington by say-
ing that he had gone there as a rep-
resentative of Governor Haskell ti

Wellington, Kansas, Oct 15.—
Could the occupant of a grave on a
lonely hill oil the Chikaskia River
a few miles north of Caldwell, speak
or would the years roll backward and
lift the veil that shrouds the myster
ies of an impromptu execution of
three men for horse stealing, and let
these men rise ifrom their resting
n'aces in the old graveyard in Wel-
lington and talk, the identity and
the fate .of the two sons of the lat
ex-Governor Ford of Illinois, about
whom there has been a lot of ques-
tioning recently, would be explained
In the one instance a lone horse-
thief known as Tom Smith was aver-
taken while being brought to Well
ington by a posse from Caldwell and
hanged to a tree in Ryland's Grove
then a favorite resting place for trav-
elers on the banks of the pretty Chi-
kaskia River. He was Tom Ford, an
alleged son of the then ex-Governor
of Illinois. He was positively iden
tided.
In the case of the other Ford, who
was christened Sewell, and who was
Charley Smith among his acquain
tanees. there was a triple lynching
at the south limit of Wellington. Bill
Brooks, an outlaw, and Charles Has-
brook, a young attorney, being hang-
ed with him. This lynching was done
by men from Wellington, and at least
one is alive and living here, a wealthy
man. Another died in the Soldier's
Home at Leavenworth a short time
ago. The trio was hanged for steal-
ing horses, and Smith was positievely
identified as Sewell Ford. He was a
younger brother of the man who had
been hanged alone. The Ford boys
were members of a band of ruffians
and theieves known as "Prairie Rid-
ers " who stole horses and cattle at
will. The Vigilantes, organized in

would have made the American rise

The America's experience proved
that this floating tail, jerking at the
delicately poised airship, made it im-
possible to steer or make headway
in the desired direction, and severely
weakened the structure.
Wellman tried to grasp a rope

got twisted about his hand. Before
he could get loose it nearly tore off

Sketch of Airs. Howe.
Julia Ward Howe, wife of Samuel
Gridley Howe was born in New York
City on May 24, 1819. Her maiden
name was Julia Ward, being the
daughter of Samuel Ward, a New
York banker. Her mother Julia Rush
Ward was the author of various oc-
casional poems. Julia was carefully
educated partly at home and partly
in private schools of New York. Her
tutor In German and Latin was Dr.
Joseph G. Cogswell. After her fath-
er's death she visited Boston and met
there Dr. Howe whom she married
in 1842. She afterwards continued
her studies and learned to fluently
speak German French and Italian.

Finally I feel that it should be the
duty of some government body to in-
vestigate, at any time, conditions In
any particular industry to see wheth-
er or not the working men do actually
get the benefit that the tariff is pri-
marily created to give; that Is. to see
that the laborer gets his full share
of the benefits of the protective tariff

It simply means that so long as there
