MORE TROUBLE FOR LANGLEY
Miserable Failure of Flying
Machine to Work

UNDERWATER, Va, Oct. IAN un-
successful attempt was made today to
launch the Langley flying machine.
The machine at no time seemed to
travel under it's own motive power
but only went with the momentum it
received from the launching power.
Prof. Manley, who was in the aero
drome, was not injured but he received
a ducking.
When the machine struck the water
1t disappeared, but only for a moment.
The five empty, conical shaped floats
did their function well and the ero-
drome was soon floating on the water.
The big birds wings which had ex-
tended IL by 22 feet were hanging
limp and bunglesome by the side of
the frame; the propellers were
smashed to rags and splinters, the rud-
der was a wreck and the wire frame
work was a tangled mass. The main
body of the aeredromic was badly dam
aged but not beyond repair.
The motor which was tested by Pro-
fessor Manley reached twelve hundred
revolutions a minute and the work was
uninterrupted. 1t was noon exactly
when all was cleared for action.
Professor Langley, through a wit
ness of the failure of his aeredrome.
received notification in Washington of
its hishap shortly after the attempted
fight.

Sheriff Lamb Sick

Sheriff Lamb was compelled to turn
his Office over to deputies yesterday
afternoon and is confined to his bed
with what threatens to be a severe
spell of sickness. He is being attended
by DR.. Giroux. The nature of the
diesase is not learned, but 1t is rumored
that typhoid fever threatens hin.
MIR. Lambs friends naturally feel
some alarm, for as has been frequent
ly said today. he had to be a pretty
sick man beforehe would consent to
go to bed in the daytime.
The Silver State sincerely hopes to
re able to convey a more favorbale
report of his condition tomorrow.

STORY OF THE CRIME

0lORI Or IE16 SnIMA
An account Of the killing, which in
cludes particulars unobtainable yes
terday by the Silver State, is found in
the following dispatch sent to the San
Francisco papers from Burns. Oregon.
In a bloody battle fought In the
wilds of Harvey county, John Santon.
a prominent attorney OF Burns. and
John West, were shot dead by John
Frost, alias Harry Egbert, fugitive
burglar wanted in Roseburg. The two
victims had been sworn in as special
deputy sheriffs and were attempting to
capture the desperado.
"Egbert, who is an ex-convict, hav-
ing served time in the Salem peniten-
tiary, had once been arrested by San
toI, but had given him the slip and
escaped. He eluded the officer from
September 20 to October 4, on which
day Santon and Jack West came up
with him at the ranchhouse OF Charles
Fields in White Horse Valley, 125
miles south OF Burns.
"Egbert and his wife were in the
house alone and as the two pursuers
approached Egbert opened fire with a
rife from behind a corner Of the build
ing. West turned to run and the Sec
ond shot struck him in the back and
he fell paralyzed. Santon kept Eg-
bert's corner covered with his rife
and Egbert climbed into the house
through a window. Santon dashed In
at the door and Egbert's wife fed to
the woods.
"Santon dropped his rife, drew a re-
yolver and with this weapon fought
his death struggle. Egbert had his
rifle and the two kept firing at each
other through a thin board partition
Santon was shot through the right
shoulder. but kept mp the battle, us
ing his left hand to fire his pistol.
"Egbert finally withdrew to the up
per story West then called Santon
from the house to bring him drink
of water. Santon seems to have gone
twice to the spring before the murder
er concluded to kill him. Then as he
turned away from the dying West. he
was shot through the center OF the
breast.
After the double killing Egberr
went on foot to a ranch i've miles
away and demanded horse to ride
The farmer refused to give him an
animal and the desperate took what
