drew up my legs and took pencil In my hand 70
begin observations. Mr. COXwell told me that he
had lost the use of his hands, which were black,
and poured brandy them.
"AIr. Coxwell told me that while in the ring
where he went to adjust the valve line, which
had become twisted, he felt 1t piercingly cold;
that hOar frost was all around the neck Of the
balloon. On attempting to leave the ring he
found his hands frozen. and ne had to place his
arms on the ring and drop down. He said he
noticed that my cOuntenance was serene and
placid, without the earnestness and anxiety he
had noticed before going into the ring, and then
II struck him that I was inSensible He wished
to approach me- but could not. He felt insensi-
biIity coming over himself. Fearful that the
balloon would ascend high that both Of US
would perish he tried TO open the valve, but
could not move his hands. At last. just as dark
ness came over his mind the rope by a happy
chance struck him in the face. SummOning up
all the strength he had in him. he caught IL in
his teeth, dipping his head two or three times
until the balloon took decided turn downward.
No inconvenience followed this insensibility, and
after we had returned safely to earth I took
walk OF seven miles without noticing it any more

SOME NARROW ESCAPES.
AS the result of his many experiments with
balloons and flying machines, Santos -Dumont.
the Brazilian aeronaut, has frequently ap-
preached perilously near to death; as, for exam
pie. when his airship collapsed at Monaco, on
February IA. 1902, and he dropped into the bay.
The morning Of that day brought such
strong wind that the aeronaut at first decided to
postpone the flight for which he had made elab-
crate preparations. By 2 O'Clock in the after
noon, however. the air became so calm that he
changed his mind. With the exception of
OminOus little cloud hanging over the hill called
Tete de Chen, which OverlOoks the bay. the
sky was clear and blue.
A number of steam yachts and launches with
special parties aboard moved about the baY
ready to follow the balloon, for it's owner had
promised to fly out to sea- No sooner did the
airship rise than SantoS-DumOnt showed he had
kept his promise for he headed for the water.
Spectators soon noticed, however, that instead
of maintaining its usual equilibrium the air
ship pitched up and down. Something had gone
wrong. The guide rope had caught in the pro-
pellor. At the same time a sQuall swept down
upon the airship from Tete de Chen, fitting the
head Of II so high that the ballast shifted, and
the oil used to the motor began to leak.
Fearing explosion the inventor pulled the
emergency cord and ripped the envelope Of the
balloon. He began to descend rapidly. the wind

G. 0. Ba0xen TAKES. THE HELM.

Word is received that the Capt.

as the editorial end of it is concern
ed, C. o. Broxon of Pocatllo, for
several years past owner and pub
Usher of the Advance, taking
charge.
We have known Mr.. Broken for
several years and he is one of the
editors (of d moeratic newspaper
that we admire. Two years ago
when F. T. Dubois was making one
of his chronic campaigns on the
Mormon church. Mr.. Broxon was
one of the first. if not the first, ed
itor of Democratic faith to refuse
Mr.. Dubois his support. While
Mr.. Broxon was at that time a
comparatively new man in the
newspaper world of Idaho, and
while it greatly injured his bust
ness to do so, still he threw all
these personal advantages to the
winds and supported that policy
which he thought best for the citi-
zens of Idaho.
In knowing what it cost Mr..
Broxon to turn down the Demo-
cratic state ticket of Idaho two
years ago, we can rest assured that
all the Dnbois gold in the country
cannot induce him to swerve from
his belief of what is right this
year.

sketch describing the effect it had
on one man here that evening.

sitting in the hotel when a Wood

Erred Dubois is holding meeting
here tonight; l think l shall go
over to hear him. Therupon most
OF the party got up and went to
the meeting.
After the meeting had closed,
the cattleman commented upon
the speech of the senator in this
manner: well, / don't know much
about the Mormon question, hav-
ing heard more in the last hour
than during the rs years OF my
experience in this section. l cali
not agree that it is an issue in this
campaign. Though l am a Demo-

OUR COURTS ARE DEPENDABLE.

that tho incumbent state admins
txation can safely be depended up
on to handle the Steunenbcrg case,
comes the editorial statement OF
the Salt Lake Republican that
1.-THE COURTS OF IDAHO
ARE ABSOLUTELY DEPENDA.
BLE.o
In Z calm and digniAed discus
sion of the campaign against Gov
ernor Gooding the Republican
says:
For many good reasons we re-
gard the. reelection OF Governor
Gooding in Idaho as immensely i'm
portant.
All over the country men are
looking toward the Gem state.
with fair degree of information
as to the local conditions there,
and are hoping for the suc' eu of
the Republican ticket. 1t is par
ty matter to the rest of the coun-
try in large degree. Idaho is
young state, bnt rapidly growing.
By the wise and generous policy
of the Republican party the irriga-
ton schemes of the arid region
have been assisted. 1t has begun
TO fill with desirable class of citi-
zens who find opportunities better
than their old homes in the east
can afford. The lands which have
always been arid are being rapidly
reclaimed, and the population nee
essarily spare, will increase amaz-
ingly within the next few years. 1t
is worth while for the rest of the
country to know that Idaho, which
has been SO greatly blest by the
party will be true to the party. 1t
is worth much to the rest of the
nation to know that state SO
marvellous splendid future, SO rich
in resources and so happy in the
quality of its citizenship rem aims
representative commonwealth in
the family of assured Republican
states.
The efforts of the enemies of the
party in the state now are directed
to an overthrow Of the Republicans
The old party is confronted with a
very strong leader whose use of a
bitter argument is a mcnance to
the peace and reasonable solution
of the problems that are presented
to the voter. 1t is to be hoped, for !
the good name of the state that
the men and women of Idaho be
not deceived into false position;
be not mislead by any methods
that may be employed-into re-
turning a majority adverse to the
Republican party.
There is another motive in the
campaign. Enimies of the Repub-
lican party have not hesitated to
array every element, invoke every
sentiment that can promise them
the slightest advantage. Three
men are under arrest in that state
charged with horrible, brutal
crime. Every man and every wo-
man of that state knows if those
prisoners are not guilty they viii
not be convicted. THE COURTS
OF IDAHO ARE ABSOLUTELY
DEPENDABLE. If the men are
guilty they will be punished, and
they ought to be punished. For
the good name of the state, for the
safety OF all the people, they should
receive the recompense of their
crime. should thier guilt be deter
mined. 1
Democrats have sought to array
every laboring man of the state
against the Republican ticket as
Labor's expression of hostility to
