HIS DROP WAS FATAL.
Second Parachute Fails to open for
BaIIoonist Making Double Descent.

Utica. N. z, Aug. s.-Wfliam
Johnson. a balIoonist. made an ascen-
sion in connection with street fair in
Little Falls today. In coming down
with a parachute, the apparatus failed
to work and Johnson fell upon the
railroad tracks, receiving injuries
which undoubtedly will cause his
death
1t Is estimated Johnson was 5000
feet high when he left the balloon to
make what is called a double para
chute descent. The first parachute
opened we'll, and Johnson descended
about two-thirds of the distance Then
he attempted to open the second para
chute and descend the remainder of
the distance with that. He discarded
the first parachute, and as he grasped
the handle of the second one the
strings broke, causing it to collapse.
johnson shot downward very rapidly,
and the thousands who were watching
him were horror stricken. He at
tempted to guide his descent so that he
would strike the wires running along
the railway which climbs the cliff. He
partially succeeded in this, but he went
through the wires and fell to the bot
tom Of the cliff striking upon the rail-
road tracks a hundred feet below His
spine was fractured at the base of the
brain.

BONDS NOT GOOD.
State Decides That the SaIina
Issue Is Invalid.
Legal Authorities Say They
Were Improperly Voted.
REFUSED ONCE BEFORE
Then Only a Technical objection
Was Made.
NeOdesha Having Similar TrOu-
BILE About Securities.
REFUSED ONCE BEFORE

A further investigation of the Sallna
school bonds which were checked up
to Attorney General Coleman for an
opinion regarding their validity has
convinced the legal department of the
state that the bonds were improperly
voted. and will have to be reissued. An
other election will have to be called,
and another bond ordinance passed
The whole proceedings up to. this time
are null and void.
The fatal defect in the issue is on
account of the fact that the bonds
were issued for the purpose of build
ing and furnishing school house. The
law does not permit the issuance of
bonds for the purpose of furnishing
a school house. This must be done by
a special tax levy The building can
be paid for by a bond issue, but the
money derived from the sale of bonds
is not available for furnishings. In
the case of the Salina bonds the
ordinance providing for the bond cleo
ton specified that the money should be
used for both building and furnishing.
At the same time the Salina bonds
were rejected, the attorney general re-
jected the issue of bond by Neodesha
for the same reason. The Neodesha
people had made the same mistake OF
trying to include payment for their
school furnishings in the bond issue.
Both Salina and Neodesha have been
notified that their bonds can not be
registered by the state auditor unless
the defects are remedied. The only
way out of the trouble seems to be to
start at the beginning. and do all the
work over again.
1t was announced yesterday by the
attorney generals Office that the
Neodesha bonds were defective, but
that the defect was of technica
nature and could be remedied without
much trouble

RAINS WERE HEAVY.
Railroads in Texas Have Been Expert
encing Much Trouble.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Aug. s.-Heavy
washouts are reported on the Rock Is
land, Santa Fe and NJ. K. & T. railways
and all trains are delayed entering this
city
Two thousand feet of track near Pur-
cell on the Santa Fe Is washed out, the
track of the Rock Island between
Holdenville and MeAlister and on the
Asher division of the Rock Island IS out
of business The Shawnee division OF
the NJ K. & T. between Ada and Kan
ava is badly washed out and traffic de-
moralized.
Large forces of men are at work at
all points and it is hoped traffic will be
resumed by tomorrow.
The reports received at the Santa Fe
general offices here indicate that it has
quit raining and the water is going
down The railway line is open as far
as Purcell, and trains are being detoUr-
ed south of that point pending repairs
to a pile bridge on the Santa F'e Gulf
lines. A four-inch rain accompanied by
an electrical storm visited the section
between Amarillo and Texico. Not mucn
damage resulted.
The Rock Island railroad reports that
repairs have been made on their lines
and that service will be uninterrupted
unless further rains make trouble.

Mr.. sTERNE DENIES IT.

to consider the offer.
1.-The first that I knew of the story
was when saw it in last nights pa
per- said Mr.. Sterne this morning,
though John Maxwell, for whom Mr.
Thompson works. told me that an at
tempt was being made by Simms to
get Mr. Thompson to withdraw 1 told
him that if an offer such as he stated
had been made, that the best thing for
Thompson to do would be to accept as
there was not a chance in the world
that he would defeat John Wilkerson.
/ never talked with Mr. Rigby about
the deal and I did not offer him s100
nor any other amount to get the deal
through.
THE sum of money It is said was
offered is out of all reason. Four thou
sand dollars is a much larger sum than
I heard anything about and Simms
could not afford to pay any such sum.
IF any offer was made at this meet
ing as coming from me it was wholly

EVIDENCE WAS WEAK.
Why Effort Is Made to secure Pardon
for George ". Dull.

Governor H2ch has been asked to
grant pardon from the penitentiary to
George W. Dull of Rawlins county, who
is serving a 21 year sentence for the
murder of DR.. J. W Rowland in 1902
Dull and Rowland had apparently
been good friends up to the time of
Rowland's murder. Dull kept a general
merchandise store, and one morning
Rowland came into the store and asked
to speak to Dull for few minutes. The
two men walked out of the store and
into the -four room of the esta blishment.
The -four room was a few steps north Of
the store and faced the sidewalk The
men did not seem to be excited They
talked for some time and the clerk
heard two pistol shots. He ran around
to the -four room and found Rowland
dead with two bullets in his head He
did not see Duh but on going back into
the store found him sitting at his desk
apparently calm, and working on his
books He appeared excited when told
of the death of the physician. Nobody
had seen the shooting but Dull was ar
rested charged with the killing and
was convicted of murder in the second
degree.
The revolver with which Rowland
was killed was never found. Dull had
a revolver Of the calibre Of the bullets
extracted from the head Of the dead
physician but this revolver was found
over Dull's desk and from its appear
ance had not been used When the
case reached the supreme court there
was a division among the judges. Judge
Pollock said that while there was no
evidence on which a man ought to be
convicted there was no error IN the trial
of the case and the decision Of the low
er could would have to be affirmed.

He GOT HIS MAN,
But David simmons objects to Term in
Penitentiary.

The supreme court today granted a
stav of execution in the case of David
Simmons of Geary county. who was
convicted of murder in the second de-
gree and sentenced to the penitentiary
for shooting Fort Riley soldier
named John Cullen. Simmons gave
$4,000 bond.
The shooting occurred on Novem-
Der Is. 1903, in one Of the disreputa BILE
houses which exist in what is known
as 1.-THE Bowery'' near the Union Pa
cific depot in Junction City. Simmons
claimed that while he was standing out
in front of this place he was attacked
by John Cullen, a United States sol
der. He alleges that he shot Cullen
in self defense. Cullen was found
lying on the ground with a big army
revolver in his hand, and a bullet hole
through his head. Simmons con-
fessed to the killing, and gave himself
up to the police. The evidence of
simmons landlady was introduced to
prove that Simmons came to his rooms
in her house at about 2 O'Clock in the
morning, and got his revolver, threat
ening at that time to kill some soldier
He was som ewhat intoxicated, and the
landlady tried to keep him at home
He went away with the revolver, how
ever. and at clock killed Cullen.
n. H. LOOMS is one of the attorneys
for Simmons. It is claimed that there
were irregularities in the former trial
of the case.
