MT. D. P. Daugherty. well known throughout Mercer and Summer coun- ties, West Virginia, most likely owes
 his life to the kindness of a ne.ghbor.
 He was almost helplessly afflicted with diarrhoea; was attended by two physicians who gave him little, if any, relief, when a neighbor learning of his serious condition, brought him a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic.

The safety valves are automatic and
let out the gas as far from the motor
as possible, so as to prevent explosion.
The framework under the bag is not
unlike a lattice girder, and made of
pine, braced with piano wirel 1t sup
ports a basket for the aeronaut and
a small Clement motor of three horse
power, which weighs only twelce kilo-
grams, or some twenty-six pounds, and
therefore yields a horsepower for a
weight of under nine pounds. The mo-
tor works a two-bladed aerial screw
on a steel axle, revolving 200 times a
minute at the rear of the car. They
and the rudder are of silk, stretched
on a steel frame. The speed attained
is only twenty feet a second or so, and
consequently the balloon requires very
quiet weather in order to make head
way. The first public appearance of
NJ. Santos-Dumont in it was in the
Bots de Boulogne on May s, the day
that M. Lebaudy covered thlrty-seven

is kept as a refuge when storms are
near, not unlike the fashion of the
Westerner's cyclone cellar. into which
he dives when the funnel-shaped cloud
makes its appearance in the sky.
Lightning is freakish in all it's ac-
tons" said the meteorologist with
whom the Star reporter was convers-
ing.
He told of an acquaintance of his
who was up in balloon when a thun-
der storm gathered and, though the
flashes of electricity cavorted all
about him. they seemed to have re-
spect for the sphere carrying his car
and never touched it. DWellers on
mountain tops have seen lighting play
ing about their heads half the time,
but it is rarely that they are scorched.
Many curious pranks of this
crotchety element are related in an in
teresting volume written by A. H. Cod
hey, concerning disasters and horrors
in the worlds history Among these
are related curious circumstances that
happened, some of them centuries ago,
but which have great interest even un-
to the present daya
The theater at Mantua was struck by
lightning on March 20, 1884. Two per-
sons only were killed, but many who
the bolt had melted their watchkevs
and earrings and split the diamCCDr
that they wore. Somewhere in France,
In 1855, a lightning bolt descend d
unon flock of sheep, killing seventy
eight of them, as well as two dogs,
while an aged woman, the sheperdess,
was not even stunned.
Another Whimsical Event.
Another whimsical event was the
descent of an electrical bolt into the
refectory of an abbey in Tours, where
in there were a hundred and fifty
monks enjoying their supper. Not one
was hurt and the only damage done
was the upsetting of $50 bottles of
wine, one bottle to'each monk. Wheth-
er it was a sort of supernatural tenn
perance lesson or not goes unrecorded.
An incident is reported wherein a
man was sitting under a tree feeding
a dog, when a sudden shock killed both
the man and the dog. The mans hand
was left extended with the bread in
tact upon it, and the dog sitting as
he had been with an expectant air
upon him.
Instances are noted where men have
escaped unframed when struck by
lightning, while the hobnails in their
boots were melted. Many times the
impressions of leaves, whole trees and
even houses have been left upon per-
sons, whereas the persons themselves
received not the lightest harm
In Brazil, little more than a CEN
fury ago. the lightning struck thirty
seven times within the city and kill
| ed nineteen persons.
One of the most disastrous occur
rences ever caused by lightning is
| mentioned by Mr.. Godhey. and this
happened in August, 1863, when the
| powder vault in the tower of St.
Nazaire at Brescia was struck. AT
that time. though lightning was the
immediate cause, the explosion of pow
der as a secondary event killed 5000
people. while $3.000.000 worth of prop
| erty was destroyed.
There is always one good effect from
lightning. 1t purifies the atmosphere.

character. spirit and method belong
ed to feudal times. He was by no
means without ability and culture.
Man to man, he was away above the
average.
His failure to improve the oppor-
tunity which had come to him through
such strenuous events, ana had been
so long coming, was ascribable to his
inability to adjust himself to any fix
ed condition imposing any kind of dis
clpllne, particularly any kind of sub
ordination. Mr.. Lincoln regarded him
with alternate admiration and amaze
ment; but he soon discovered that he
could not trust him with responsibility
requiring either delicacy of touch or
self-effacement.
we live in many times, in times of
opuience and peace; that is to say.
we think we do-and the world we
fancy, is adjusting itself 10 the chang
ca conditions. Certainly men of the
KIND who live to shoot, and who shoot
to kill-as distinguished from the
criminal classes, admittedly inconveni-
ent as neighbors and visiting acquaint-
ances-are happily becoming fewer
and fewer. Their final going will not
De the occasion of very much regret
Yet no one of us can withhold a
certain admiration of the spirit which
mas burned Within the bosom of this
old lion of Whitehall, even as we are
bound to confess a certain irresistible
awe in his majestic presence Who
shall fathom the depths of that over
powering personality. that bottomless
abyss of transcendent Quixotism?
Wore His Hat in Cars Presence.
In the Metropolitan Museum of Art
in New York city is hung a massive
painting of the Court of Russia at the
time Cassius NJ. Clay was the repre-
sentative of this republic thereat. The
scene is one of unusual brilliancy and
portrays the Car in his imperial robes
with feathers flying from his headgear,
while around him are stationed all for
eign ambassadors attendant upon his
court. In the picture Clay and the
Gear are the only two standing with
their heads covered. 1t is said that
Clay was requested to remove his hat
in Difference to being in the presence
of the Car, but this Clay refused to
do, saying Il only take off my hat
to those who take of their hats to
me- Had the Car uncovered his
head, it is to be presumed, says the
Lexington (Ky) Democrat. that Clay
would have followed suit, but so long
as the Russian monarch kept his head
covered before Clay the latter would
not uncover before him.

LIVINGSTON THINKS
1T WILL BE GORMAN
Georgia Congressman Expects the Democratic
Nomination to Go to the MaryIander.

The anti-imperialists to man are
opposed to Mr.. Roosevelt. In the ag-
gregate they make up a considerable
element in the Republican party ana
the Democratic candidate can nave
their votes if he is not objectionaoie
to them on other grounds.
Many of the conservative business
men of the country are opposed to Mr..
Roosevelt. They are the men upon
whom the Republican party has relied
chiefly for its campaign contributions.
They did not like Mr.. Roosevelt's 'ac-
ton in the coal strike controversy. and
they are afraid that his headstrong,
impetuous character may result IN
bringing the United States into need
less conflict with some foreign Power
if he should be elected to the presl-
dency for four years more.
On the other hand, Mr.. Roosevelt
may enter the campaign with the labor
organizations arrayed against him. He
won a certain amount of favor from
these organizations by his action in
bringing about a settlement of the
coal strike last year, but it is not i'm
probable that he may lose their favor
as a result of his recent action in or
dering the restoration of Assistant
Foreman Miller to the government
printing office bookbindery. The la
President in regard to his declaration
that the government service must be
open to union and non-union men on
equal terms, but they do criticise him
for not taking the trouble to look into
the record of Miller and for restoring
a man who was particularly obnoxious
to organized labor without inquiring
whether he was fit man for the place
or not
For all these reasons thoughtful men
in the Democratic party believe that
it will not be impossible to defeat Mr..
Roosevelt next year if the Democrats
nominate the right sort of a candidate.
The friends of Senator German be-
lieve that he is the man who can be
nominated by the Democrats with the
greatest chance of success. They be-
lieve that he will not only bring to
the support of the ticket all elements
in the Democratic party, but that he
will bring into the party more recruits
than could be attracted by any other
man.
