Carlton II. Myers, a boy of ~ years
of age, and a bright, modest little chap,
r has displayed most wonderful nerve
and presence of mind. A balloon as
cension was being given at West Lib
erty, Ia, by the Baldwin Bros. of
Quincy. Ill.
The balloon was almost inflated with
hot air when the anchor ropes gave
way and it started upward suddenly
with rush. The spectators were hor-
rified to see boy hanging head down.

low, boy like, had approached too near
the preparations and his foot became
entangled in one of the ropes. The
aeronaut called out "straighten up boy,
but hold on for all you are worth"

But the richest and most invaluable
prize of Naples is the Museo Nazionale.
Other cities have more superb build
ings and larger collections, but none
can equal the vast collection Of antiqui-
ties in this museum. Naples has the
buried and slowly uncovered treasures
of Pompeii and Herculaneum to CLEAN
from. The building, which IS situated
in the center of the city between the
old and the new portions, resembles in
size and appearance the Metropolitan
Museum in New York The basement
to Egyptian, the ground floor is given
up to mosaics, mural decorations,
paintings and inscriptions from the
buried cities; also large and small
bronzes, embracing almost every ar
ticle Of daily life, so that the bronzes
from Herculaneum are black and those
from Pompeii are green. Imagine
standing in a room where there are
stone tablets several hundred years be-
fore Christ. containing the title deeds
to lands. And then at one end of this
long Hall of Inscriptions is the Farnese

other end, the Farnese Dirke--aiso the

course, does not contain rs many cele-

The pluclxy lad obeyed, reached up
above his foot, and catching hold of
the rope quickly righted himself,

But to brighter topic. The Italians

Many travellers are accustomed to
pass by the churches of Naples be-
cause of those fair shrines which are
awaiting them in Rome, but there are
a score of them (out of some 300) which
can hardly be surpassed, and then they
have monuments peculiarly their own.
Naples, we must remember, was a
kingdom under seven different dynas-
ties before it was united to Italy. The

WICHITA GIRLS PIPE DREAM.
Believes Herself Heiress 70 Valuable

Special to Daily Leader.
Wichita, kas., June 20.-Miss Pearl
Ludlum. the little blue-eyed girl who
writes all the letters for Manager Dold
at the big Dold packing house, has a
chance to become multi-millionaire.
Amidon & Comfy $re hunting up the
evidence to prove the title of the
Ludlum family to an immense property
in the state OF New York
This is another story about the fa-
nous Anneke Jams estate. 1t wilr be
remembered that there are some of
the heirs to the Anneke Jams estate
in this city, but it is now claimed that
the supreme court of the state of New
York has handed down an opinion to
the effect that the Anneke JAMS heirs
have no right to the great estate in
question, but that the heirs of Elisha
Frazier are the real owners.
Pearl LudIum's father, j. w. Lud-
lum, lives at l7g0 North Topeka
avenue, and his grandmother was a
daughter of Elisha Frazer, and that
is how Miss Pearl is in line for the
great fortune.
One hundred and forty-three years
ago elisha Frazer owned $40 acres Of
land which is now in the most valu
able part of New York city. Trinity
church is now on the land formerly
owned and leased by Frazer to Eyer
hart Bogardas for 80 years.
Some idea of the value OF the land
at that time may be gained from the
fact that Bogardas gave Frazer 40
barrels Of corn for the 99-year lease.
After a few years Bogardas married
the widow of Anneke JAMS. After the
desrh of Bogardas she and her mum
erous children continued to exercise
ownership over the land and collect
the rent. but It is now claimed that
the courts have held that the lease has
expired and the lands revert TO the
heirs OF Elisha Frazer,
That all seems plain end people who
are not lawyers will ask what is the
reason that the heirs OF Elisha Frazer
can not come into possession Of the
land and the ss5,OOO,OOO deposited in

Saltwater, Ckla., June 2O.--Still-
water was the scene, last evening, OF
quite an exciung time for some of our
people, principally Editor j. S. Hale
Of the Advance, and Arthur Dix an
employe of the office. The disturb
ance was first noticed when Dix came
down from Hale's Office six steps at a
time, followed by steel bar.
On reaching the sidewalk he went
to his home in the north part of town
where Hale soon appeared with a
shotgun with which he soon sompell-
ed the surrender of his victim.
He then marched Dix to his CHales)

brought him face to face with Mrs.

said to have originated.

under penalty of death if he did not
comply.
It seems the trouble started over
not particularly serious matter. Dix
says that he and Mrs. Hale were in

that he started home wen the wo-
man asked HIM If he was not going
to kiss her good bye; that he did SO
