RIDE GALE IN CLOUDS
NEW YORK AERONAUTS HAVE
THRILLING EXPERIENCE.
Everything in Atmosphere Charged with
Electricity-AIghtning Flashes, Made
Terrible Spectacle.

BINGHAMTON, n. Y. June 19.-Dr.
Julian 2. Thomas and Charles 5. Levee,

westerly course and passed into severe
electrical storm, which continued during
the greater part of the night. DR.. Thorn
as described this, saying:
In the region of Little Falls, n. j., we
came to within 200 feet of earth to get our
bearings and called to several persons to
telephone my wife that we were safe up to
that hour, near 7:30. In less than an hour
after we were in the heart of thunder
storm
The effect of the storm was terrifying.
Everything we touched was charged with
electricity. The rain-soaked ropes We're
alive with the electrical fluid, and If we
touched anything with our hands we re
ceived a shock, or started a spark. Inc
rain fell in torrent With every flash OF
lightning we could see a decided change IN
cloud formation about US The wind DleW
the clouds into mountain shape and mol
lowed out valleys, leaving here and there
gaps between the mountains and through
the gaps tongues of fame would leap ana
continue to light up the spectacle.

KIDNAPER GETS
TWENTY YEARS.
Muth Boys Captor at Philadelphia Is
Quickly Rushed Through
Law Process.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, June 10
John Joseph Kean, the abductOr of Fred
die Muth, the 7-year-old son of Charles
Muth, the Columbia avenue jeweler, who
with his captive was discovered yester-
day after six-days' search in a vacant
house in West Philadelphia, was today
sentenced to twenty years in prison.
Quick work was made of the case.
Mothers Verdict His Dues.
Had | the disposition of the case /
would summon a large number of moth
ers here and turn you over to their
mercies, but as the law fixes the penalty
for crimes like yours, | can do nothing
but commit you without bail for the ac-
ton of the grand jury on the charge of
kidnapping" These words were addressed
by Magistrate Eisenbrown to Kean at
the preliminary hearing. Immediately
after the hearing. Captain of Detectives
Donaghy went before the grand jury
with his witnesses and asked for an in
dictment. District Attorney Bell says
he will do everything in his power to
facilitate the trial of Kean.
Muttered threats could be heard when
the prisoner was placed in the dock,
from the many women spectators. Fred
die Muth was brought to the courtroom
by his father. He was different boy
Viii IAC Nhllu WIZ was 1Ouuu ulIIy ana
hungry in the unoccupied house after Il
week S enforced absence from home. In
strong contrast was the appearance of
the abductor. After a sleepless night i'll
the cell the latter was haggard and wan.
dls eyes shifted nervously and his whole
frame trembled visibly. He still seemed
to fear bodily injury The police say
he paced the cell all night sobbing and
moaning, his wife and children being
uppermOst i'll his mind.
Captive Greets Captor.
When he was placed in the dock Kean
nodded to Freddie Muth, who sat beside
his father and the boy smiled. Pointing
to Kean the little fellow said There he
is, papa, seeY
fuence over the child. who showed Il
feeling akin to friendship for the man.
The hearing was brief Special Police
. snen Glare and Vale told OF the arrest.
James Lenahan, the messenger boy who
delivered the note at the schOOIhOuse by
which Freddie was inveigled from his
classroom, related the circumstances of
his meeting with Kean. Joseph Sager,
the baker, testified to seeing the man
and boy in Elmer Rhoades cafe, and the
latter verified Sager's testimony.
No Time Is Lost.
The grand jury soon found a true bill
against kean and he was given an i'm
mediate trial and convicted in less than
an hour. Judge Sulzberger sentenced
the prisoner to twenty years. From
the time of Kean's arrest until he was
on his way to the penitentiary to begin
sentence less than twentyfour hours
had elapsed.
When Kean was taken before Judge
SulZberger, he requested that he be al
lowed to make a statement He said
there We're mitigating circumstances in
connection with the kidnapping but the
judge told the prisoner he must either
plead guilty or not guilty. Kean then
pleaded guilty. No jury was chosen.
