SHOOT AT BALLOONS.
Government Will Inaugurate a Series
of Experiments at Omaha.

Washington, Sept. 16.-As a result of
the successful flights of the Wright
flyer" during the past two weeks by
Orville Wright at FIT. Myer, a joint
commission composed of officers of the
ordnance department, the signal corps
and the artillery corps of the army,
may within a few months undertake
experiments to determine the possibili-
ty of damaging an airship in flight
The German government has con-
Quoted experiments along this line and
European army officers claim that an
aerial warship is immune from artil-
lery fire at a height of 5000 feet The
Germans are developing a special NOR
tar for firing at balloons and airships
as field guns can not be adjusted to
very great angles.
The signal corps has several old bal
looms which will be used for practice
work of this character. The tests will
probably be held at the new aero park
at Fort Omaha. Tests of this charac-
ter in Germany have shown that a bal
loon can be hit at a height of two
and one-half miles. On July 80. at
Magdeburg. the captive balloon at this
altitude was struck 80 times, but did
not collapse.
sibility of hitting his aeroplane while
in flight said:
Officers of the German army have
told me that an aeroplane could not
be fired at with any degree of accuracy
when a thousand feet in the air. With
my present machine it is possible to
go a mile high and not experience any
adverse effects from the difference in
the air at that altitude"
An army officer. in speaking at FIT.
Myer of the possibility of hitting the
Wright aeroplane said:
1T would be necessary to hit the
operator of the machine as a few bull
let's through the structure of the aero
plane would not affect it's flight. The
high speed at which the aeroplane flies
would also make it difficult to secure
accurate. aim. Shrapnel would proba-
bly, be the most effective for shooting
at these aerial war vessels. An explo
sive shell would be Ineffective as the
parts of the aeroplane do not offer
enough resistance to explode the cap
and no time fuse shell could be timed
so as to explode at the right moment
All these questions can be determined
only by experiments and these will
probably result in the development of
a method by which aerial destroyers
can be effectively fought"

WORE A CRUCIFIx
Unknown Man, Skull Fractured,
Found Near Willard.
May Have Fallen From r. /.
Passenger Train.
BROUGHT TO Topeka.
Skull Trephined at Kieth's Hos
pital This Morning.
Not Likely to Recover Enough
to Give Name.

An unknown man was found about
Z O'Clock this morning by the crew of
a passing freight train about half a
mile this side of Willard lying near
the Rock Island railway tracks with
his skull fractured. The crew notified
the operator at Willard and the man
was taken to Willard and afterwards
brought to the Keith hospital in To-
peka.
He is about twenty-five or twenty
three years of age, well dressed and
apparently an educated man. His
hands indicate that he is not a labor
er and it is not believed that he is
tramp. There was nothing on the
body by which he can be identified
and it is not known whether he was
struck by a train or fell from a pass
ing passenger train during the night.
The only possible means of Identified
ton about the man is a crucifix which
was suspended from his neck.
The mans skull is fractured in
number of places and there is but
slight chance that he can recover or
that he will regain consciousness long
enough to reveal his identity. After
he was brought to the hospital DR..
Keith performed an operation remov-
ing the pressure of the fractured skull
from the brain. though no attempt
was made to remove the small par
ticles on account of the condition of
the injured man.

Judge Parker was literally applauded
eis.rouenout his speech at the conclusion
ol winch the committee on resolutions
reported. On national politics and
c0huiuates the platform says;
The Platform.
Inc Democracy of New York in state
convention assembled reaffirms and re-
news ITS allegiance and devotion to the
luhoamental principles of the Demo-
cIatlc party and heartily endorses the

thusiastic support
Inc Democratic party is the rational
exponent of the hopes and wishes OF
the tolllng masses in their lifelong
struggle against class privilege and
greed and 1t reiterates its abiding faith
In the principles of Democracy as
against plutocracy
We hail as the embodiment of the
pest traditions of our party and as the
Ideal exemplars of Democracy the
standard bearers chosen by the united
Democracy of the country as our lead
ers in this campaign against the or

legalized spoliatfon
Mr.. Bryan has been for years con-
spicuouS in the public eye and against
his character. motives or private life
no suspicion of any kind has ever
arisen. With no army of public Of
hcials ready at his beck and call to
control party machinery, with no gov
eminent departments organized so as
to coerce corporations and final inter-
ests into contributing to his campaign
fund, his nomination has come as the
spontaneous response TO the wish or
the great mass of his party and repre-
sents the aspirations and hopes of the
rank and file of the Democracy
throughout the nation. Like Thomas
Jefferson and Andrew Jackson, the
great leaders of the Democratic party
in its early days his policies and his
political motives have been bitterly as
sailed by privileged interests whose
supremacy is dangerous to the institu-
tions of our country. Like Jefferson
and Jackson he has repealed all the at
tacks made upon him and he is strong
er today than ever before in the affec-
tions and confidence of the people. Mr..
Bryan does not stand for an attack
upon honestly acquired wealth. His
election will restore the administra-
ton of federal government to the ideas
of the fathers and assure to the coun-
try safe, sound, stable. economical
and constitutional construction of the
law.
mo greater praise can be given to
Mr.. Kern and no less is his due than
to say he is in every way worthy to
be Mr. Bryans associate on the ma

PLEASED OVER HUGHES.
Republican Leaders Think His Nom
inatiOn Will Help in Doubtful States.

Chicago, Sept t.. 16,--Republican
leaders from fourteen central and
western states. who were assemble
here in conference with Chairman
committee, expressed their gratifica-
ton at the denomination of Hughes
for governor of New York. without
exception the western leaders declared
that the action of the New York con-
vention will aid the Republicans in
all of the debatablei states of the west
Requests that Governor Hughes be
sent into western states to make cam
paign speeches have been received in
great numbers, and many of the chair
men of state central committees have
been insistent in their demands The
national committee refrained from
asking Gov. Hughes to take part in
the campaign because it was not
deemed wise to do anything that
would look like interference in the
contest between New York organiza-
ton leaders and Hughes supporters
over the gubernatorial situation. There
Is no longer any reason why an invi-
tation to speak should be withheld
from Governor Hughes and he will be
asked to visit as many states as he cav
In the time he has to spare from his
own campaign. 1t is said that he may
be scheduled to speak in Kansas, Ne
braska, Iowa and other western states
Wnere MS popularity is strong.
Chairman Hitchcock and Senator
Dixon, director of the speakers bureau
of the western headquarters left Chi
cago last night for Cincinnati, where
they will confer with Judge Taft con-
corning the itinerary arranged for his
western trip. This trip, which will ex-
tend into about ten states, will begin
about September 25 and conclude on
October z. when Mr.. Taft will make
non-partisan speech before the Deep
Waterways convention in this city.
Mr.. Taft may make a number of
speeches in the region contiguous to
Cincinnati before entering upon his
long trip. These speeches, if made,
will be in addition to the address of
the National League of Republican
clubs at Cincinnati September % and

just returned from campaigning
Maine, visited Republican head
quarters. He said that the small ma
jority by which Maine was carried by
the Republican party had no partic-
ular bearing upon the national cleo
ton. He thought that the return of
the entire Republican congressional
delegation was an indication that the
attitude of the party in congress meets
with the approval of the people of
the state. regardless of local differ
ences. He predicted that in the ma
tional election the normal Republican
majority would be given Taft and
Sherman.
