Drowned All the Birds.

All the Birds.
On the night of August IL, after
Northeastern Kansas had been SWEET
ering without rain for over thirty days,
the creeks were drying up and farm
ers were beginning to grumble about a
"drouth," a big black cloud doomed up
over the northern horizon. Horton
was treated to a display of electrical
fireworks, and then the wind began to
blow. A lull followed. and Horton
went to sleep.
About 1 o'clock people living along
the creek south of the town found
water suddenly rising on the bedroom
floors, and in one instance a man car
ried his wife through the water waist
deep to high ground. The dam which
held the town water supply gave way,
bridges and culverts were swept out.
And all this in about forty minutes.
Monday morning ex-Mayor Leverton
discovered a dead bird In his path,
and a closer scrutiny showed more. A
neighbor was called to witness, and a
pailful were picked up. More neigh.
bors arrived and took q hand in the
unique harvest. Coal scuttles, wash
boilers, pals and baskets were brought
and filled. Sparrows, wrens, black
birds, robins and every feathered ten
ant of the grove were represented.
One woman picked up 161 birds with
out moving in her steps. When the
count was made it disclosed 1900
birds.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

Cycling Notes.

The wheel is responsible for very
few fatal accidents this year.
In the cities the wheel is much used
for going to and from business.
Many riders when they go on a long
trip take out an accident policy. No
case is known where one has been
collected.
A single tube tire, with a chronic
inability to hold wind, may be made
to last out the season by removing
the valve. Sitting it for a distance of
i've or six inches and inserting an in
ler tube.
Having led the way with four and
three-wheel motor vehicles, the French
are now endeavoring to duplicate their
success with motor bicycles.
Accidents happen every day because
of neglect of the ordinary rules of
the road. Some riders. including many
women, seem unable to learn to pass
to the right and to overtake on the
left.
To do good work in tire repairs al
ways clean both the surface of the
tire and Of the patch or plog thor
oughly, washing with benzine when
possible, and always test the repair
when finished and allow plenty of time
for It to set before resuming the jour
ney.

GOBBEL MURDER PLOT.
Sensational Testimony Given by the
Dead Governors Brother.
YOUTSEY MOVED IN BEDCLoTHES

While Arthur Goebel Was Testifying He
Groaned and Screamed-Witness Re-
lates the Accused Mans Alleged Com
fession - He Makes Some Startling
Statements in Accusing the Prisoner.
Georgetown, Ky. (SpeciaD.- Judge
Cantril overruled the motion of the
defence in the case of Henry e. Yout-
sey Monday for a further continuance.
He said he had no discretion in the
matter, and declared the trial must be
resumed. When the trial was re-
sumed in the afternoon Youtsey was
moved in his bedclothes to the open
door Of the jury room in order that he
on in the courtroom. Arthur Goebel,
brother of the dead Governor, resumed
the stand. His testimony was sensa-
tional, and during it Youtsey groaned
and fairly screamed, at n time hay-
ing to be held in his bed.
Arthur Goebel told Of his visit to
Youtsey in Jail a few hours after his
arrest. He said:
Il put my left hand on Mr.. Yout-
sey's right shoulder and said: 'Mr.
Youtsey, Colonel Campbell has just re-
turned and told me what you have
said to him, and / have come over to
have you tell me what you have told
him, to tell whether it is true, and to
ask you a few other questions
"Mr. Youtsey said: Yes, Mr.. Goebel,
what / have told Colonel Campbell is
true.'
"Youtsey proceeded and said: Just
as I told Colonel Campbell, 1 had a
talk with Dick Combs on Monday
morning., and he told me that he was
ready to do the shooting. I went to
Governor Taylor and told him that
Dick Combs was ready to do the shoot
ing. Governor Taylor said: You
ought not to come to see me about
this. I have been expecting this to
be done for some time, but l object to
having a negro do it. 1t is too impor-
tant a piece Of work. Combs may be
/ spy and he may betray u.s."
II asked: What else did Taylor say?'
Youtsey said: Governor Taylor walked
up and down the floor and said: 'Yout-
sey, what 40 you think? If Goebel is
killed, do you think / could hold my
office? He discussed that matter talk
ing to me back and forth, and l said
to him / thought If Goebel was put
out Of the way that the contest would
oe settled and that he could hold his
office.
FINALLY I said to him, as Governor
Taylor hesitated still, 1T is up to you
TO decide now finally whether it is to
be done or not" After some more
hesitation Youtsey stated that Taylor
said finally: well, tell them to go
ahead"
"Youtsey said: I went and got the
cartridges, unlocked the door and let
them in and gave the cartridges to
Jim Howard. He was the last man
who went in the door,
Il said: WAS he shot with a Win
chester rifle? He said: The cartridges

Washington, d. G. (SpeciaD.-There

ANOTHER RACE TOR CUP.
lipton's Challenge Accepted by the
New York Yacht Club.
MATCH WILL OCCUR in AUGUST.

Misrepresentation as to Who Will De-
fend Trophy Against the Challenger.
New York City (SpeciaD.-Sir Thorn
Is Lipton's challenge for the Ameri-
cas- Cup was formally laid before the
members Of the New York Yacht Club
at q special meeting held for that pur-
pose. Without a dissenting voice the
challenge was voted a hearty accept
ance by the hundred Or more members
that thronged the famous model room,
where the meeting was held.
Speculation was not wrong when it
decided that the new challenge would
not differ in it's terms from the former
one sent by Sir Thomas. In the dates
suggested for the alone is there
variation. The challenge, which comes
through the Royal Ulster Yacht Club,
of the deed of gift, Sir Thomas Upton
rs owner Of the challenging vessel;
Shamrock IL, a cutter-rigged yacht
measuring 80.5 feet on the load water
line as the challenger; August 20, %
and "a Of next year as the date for the
races, and requests that the starts,
courses and other details be left sub
lect to the same conditions as governed
the races between Columbia and the
first Shamrock last year.
A committee was appointed, with
power to accept the challenge for the
club, and to arrange the terms of the
match. This committee will later in
the year meet a similar committee
from the Royal Ulster Yacht Club,
and full details Of the sailing Of tho
will then be agreed upon.
After the meeting the question of a
new defender was discussed. Various
suggestion of more or less plausibility
as to the defensive campaign went the
rounds. BY some it was said, with no
quotation of authority, that at least
two defenders would be built, and that
a local designer would furnish the
boards for Of the new yachts. The
owners of the latter yacht were limited
at as a syndicate composed of three
or four yachtsmen who have been
prominent in racing off Newport.
As to the owners Of the first yacht,
all those who didn't know repeated
the gossip that has been current since
the news of Sir Thomas Lipton's in
tention to challenge became known.
Harry Payne Whitney and Herman
e. Duryea, it was said, would be the
owners, and Captain NAT" HerreshOff
the designer.
