MISSOURI WENT REPUBLICAN.
Taft Majority in the State is About
-Four Hundred.

st. Louis, Nov. 6.-Supplementary
returns this morning do not disturb
Taft's lead of over 400. The legisla-
ture seems fixed at six democratic
majority on joint ballot. Some doubt
exists on state officers, but so far
the republicans have an average lead
of about 1000.
In Nebraska, Hinshaw, republican,
in the fourth congressional district,
is elected; Kinkaid, republican, is
undoubtedly elected in the sixth
while the contest is very close in the
fifth. The other districts are safely
democratic.
Missouri is for Taft, with Mary
land still in doubt.

LIGHTNING STRIKES SHIPS.

Zach More Often Than is Supposed
Conductors for Electric Currents.
In spite of the popular impression
20 the contrary, ships remote from
the land are seldom damaged by
!shtning, altho gh some of the
most awe Inspiring displays of at
nospheric electricity are frequently
witnessed by those on board of them.
Standing rigging and even parts
of the running gear are now made
of steel wire, and this substitute for
the old fashioned hemp serves the
purpose of lightning conductor when
the ship is not fitted with such an
aid to safety. The electric current
is conveyed down the wire rigging
and reaches the sea through the YES
sells metal hull. Damage occurs
only if the current be interrupted
on its way to earth. In compare
lively large proportion of instances
the foreroyal truck is struck by
lightning, that of the main less fire.
quently and the mizen least of the
three.
Very serious casualties under this
head occurred to warsbips and mer-
chant vessels in the days of wooden
bulls and hempen rigging. In July.
1902, as thirteen sail of the East
India company were trying to round
the cape in the vicinity of Algoa
Bay, homeward bound, two of them,
IN n nd "a Do ho,
were struck by lightning. The fore
mast of each was soon enveloped in
flames and the masts had to be cut
away in order to save the ships and
their combustible cargoes. A heavy
gale was blowing, the night was
dark, and the other ships of the
fleet, which were hove to at the time,
were witnesses of this thrilling in
cident.
Many vessels are now fitted with
lightning conductors of approved
types, lest the wire rigging should
fail to carry off the electric current.
In May, 1896, shortly after severe
thunderstorm, accompanied by light
ming and rain in degrees south, 81
degrees east, the P. and o. steamship
Victoria had sudden increase of
deviation, amounting to six degrees
in both the standard and the wheel
house compasses, and later 1t was
discovered that the lightning con-
ductor on the fore had fused. The
ship must have been struck by light
ming during the storm.
