Emlgratloa from U. s. 70 CaaaAa.

Recently published U. s. consular
reports do not bear out the prevalent
idea that there was tremendous
emigration from the United States to
the Canadian northwest during 1905.
Those reports show THAT during the
nine months Of last year up 10 Sept.
30, 24,s43 people emigrated from this
country to Canada. OF these, $3.50
were from Minnesota, 1913 from
North Dakota, and l4,4l4 from the
remainder Of the country. Among
the other states that led In furnishing
emigration to Canada are these: Iowa,
LISA; WISCONSIN, 2,2S3; Illinois, 1878;
Montana, l,44l, South Dakota, 0l7.
Almost half as many more people
came from Canada to the United
States during those nine months than
went from this country to Canada.

New York, August 6-New York

day today and far into the evening
for this was the hottest day here this
year. Upwards of twenty persons
in this city alone died from the heat
and the hospital and police ambul-
ances were kept more than busy, so
numerous were the cases of prostra-
ton. These numbered scores. The
government thermometers registered
80 degrees at its highest this after
noon, which is now the record for the
year. But it was much hotter in the
streets and some thermometers reg
istered as high as 102 degrees. The
humidity was excessive. Thousands
of tenement house dwellers could not
endure to stay in their crowded tene-
ments and deserted them for the time
being for the city parks and sea shore
where they will sleep tonight in the
open. The curb brokers in Broad

Oklahoma City, Okla, Aug. 6.--The
"Gooseneck," the Second Oklahoma
congressional district, comprising the
counties of Oklahoma, Canadian,
Blaine, Caddo, Custer, Dewey, Day,
Woods, Woodward and Beaver, is per-
haps the most unique instance of po-
litical gerrymander.
This district extends across a coun-
try $50 miles in length, and at no
place more than thirty or forty miles
in width. Hence, the appelation of
"Gooseneck." In the Beaver county
portion of the district it is bounded
by four states-Kansas, Colorado,
New Mexico and Texas. The length
of the district is within fifty miles of
the distance from Oklahoma to Kan.

here to Dallas or Fort Worth, Texas.
The length of the district is two
thirds Of the distance east and west
across the new state of Oklahoma,
and lacks only few miles Of being
equal to the distance between north
and south.
Many Of the states do not extend
over the country in either direction
as far as this congressional district.
Its agricultural products, on account
Of climate, range from cotton, which
is almost an exclusive south Oklahoma
crop, to corn and wheat. raised in the

candidate canvassing his district, even

road to get from one end to the other.

STREET RAILWAY AMENDMENT.
City Council Attended to Much Rout-

The regular meeting Of the council
transacted some rather important bus
mess at its session held at the city
hall last night. The roll call showed
all members of the council present.
Probably the most important matter
was the taking up of an amendment
to the ordinance granted by a street
car company to this city some time
ago. This amendment was placed
through its three readings and finally
adopted. II provides that after ten
years time all streets upon which the
franchise was given the company the
right to operate. and upon which they
have not installed their tracks shall
revert to the city. II also provides
that all school children under the age
Of eighteen years shall ride for 3 cents
and where tickets are bought in lots
OF 20 for 2 1-2 cents. II further pro-

Gus point, exactly where disastrous
freight wreck occurred two years ago.
Werren was running at about thirty
miles an hour, rounding a sharp curve,
and the engine left the rails at q
switch leading onto a "Y."
The engine plunged into the ground
between the tracks of the "Y" and
turned over, half burying itself in the
grounds. The force was so great that
the tender was lifted entirely over the
boiler and landed bottom upward with
the forward end turned toward the
engine pilot, In its flight, the tender
stripped the cab from the engine. The
baggage and express ear following,
skidded to the left, and stopped with
the rear end on the track. The mail
and smoking car followed it, Shot
away to the right, plunged down an
embankment and stopped with the
rear on the track, the two ears form
ing an acute angle, with engine living
squarely between.
O'Neill was caught beneath the fire
box and pinioned. His death was due
to burns and scalds from steam. While
being burned to death by the hot elm
ders in which he was lying, and the
escaping steam, he directed the work
ers how to release him. He died en-
route to hospital in an ambulance.
Werren, as the engine careened, was
hurled out of the cab through the air,
a distance of fifty feet, striking the
ground beside the baggage car. One
arm was torn almost from the body,
and he was also badly burned and
scalded. He nearly bled to death be-
fore surgeons could stop the flow of
blood.
On the train were two mail clerks
and a baggage man. None was hurt.
The smoking ear was unoccupied.

Mr.. and Mrs. Augustus Hartje en-
dured much when the lawyers made
their arguments, both the libellant
and respondent getting a hot scoring,
the conclusion for today being the
speech by John Marion for the libel
liant.
Reference to the children Of the
couple seemed to move Mr.. Hartje
and his wife very much. During Mr..
Marion's argument, Mrs. Hartje at
times was CHASTITY pale and his asser-
tions. Mr.. Hartje was greatly af-
fected by the statement that he had
not kissed his children for a year.
Mr.. Ferguson made a short speech
but will conclude tomorrow after Mr..
Freeman argues for the respondent.
Attorney w. b. Rogers made the
first address for Mr.. Hartje. He made
a sharp attack on the character of
Mrs. Hartje. He spoke for little
more than an hour. He referred to
the separation of Mr.. and Mrs. Hart
je, saying that the real reason Off
her desertion was to be found in the
love letters alleged to have been writ

1T SAILED 225 MILES.
Airship Reaches Perfection at New
York City.

plunl MOCK, Mass., August O-Sall,
ing above the clouds and over 225
miles of panoramic land and water
from New York City, and landing to.
day at the little seas ide resort of
Brant Rock, near the historic town
of Plymounth, DIR. Julian p. Thomas
of New York, and Roy Knabenshue
the professional aeronaut, made one
OF the most successful balloon trips
yet undertaken in thic country, and
learned much, it is believed, that will
assist in the development of aerial
navigation. Dr. Thomas said that
the trip, from every point Of view,
was the most successful that he had
yet accomplished. The balloon was
undamaged, but Aeronaut Knaben-
shue was slightly cut during the final
descent at this place. Otherwise moth
ing marred the fight.
The voyage was made with one stop
and that a voluntary one at Noank,
Conn, early in the morning, where,
by the aid of the new guide rope, DIR.
Thomas quickly brought his balloon
to earth to procure breakfast and wa
ter. The aeronauts landed at Brant
Rock at IL 80 this forenoon, and as
they left New York at midnight last
night, they were nearly twelve horus
on their trip.
The trip was amde for the purpose
of testing two new appliances, the
guide rope and water anchor. The for
mer device worked with great sue
cess. "a
The ascent was made in New York
without mishap at midnight. The
balloon rose high over New York city
and sailed over Long Island sound.
After several miles, a thick fog swept
over the sound, and the aeronauts
were unable to tell whittier they were
drifting. By the use of his guide
rope, DIR. Thomas brought his car
nearer the earth, and from the blasts
OF fog horns knew he was still over
the waters of the sound. on Bridge
port, Conn, attracted by one, of the
whistling craft, Thomas brought his
airship still closer to the water, and
astonished members of a yachting
party by hailing from the mist and
darkness. From them he learned
his exact position and then quickly
resumed his journey.
AT about 5 o'clock this morning,
the outlines of land could be made
ont through the fog and by the aid
of his new landing device, of the wa
ter anchor and the guide rope, Thom-
as gently landed at Noank, Conn.
The voyagers had breakfast and
were so enthusiastic over the success
Of their trip, which at this point
had been of about 149 miles, that
they decided to continue on their
journey.
Over Narragansett Bay and into
Massachusetts the balloon sailed and
finally the ocean came into view when
preparations were at once made for /
their final descent.
The ear dropped rapidly until it
struck the meadow land belonging
to George II. Thomas at Brant Rock.
The car was unsteady from its lack
'f ballast, and bounded along over
he ground for about 100 yards before
is anchor brought it up with the
