pen and ink wrote out the remain

The affidavits of these two young

described Brandenburg's actions and
the comment made at the time upon h

LIGHTNING AND SHIPS.
Vessels Are Struck More Frequently
Than .Is Supposed.


In spite Of the popular impression to
the contrary, ships remote from the
land are seldom damaged by lightning,
although some of the most awe in
spring displays of atmospheric cleo
tricity 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 safe
ty. The electric current is conveyed
down the wire rigging and reaches the
sea through the vessels metal hull.
Damage occurs only IL the current be
interrupted on its way down. In a

quently and the mizzen least of the

Very serious casualties under this
head occurred to warships and mer-
chant vessels In the days of wooden
bulls and hempen rigging. In July.
1902, as thirteen sailing vessels Of the
East India company were trying to
round the cape in the vicinity Of Algoa
bay homeward bound, two of them.
the Il. ANNA and the Bombay Castle,
were = lck by lightning. The fore
mast o. 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 feet, which
were hove to at the time. were wit
nesses of this thrilling incident.
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,

Governors Conference.

Memphis, Tenn, Oct. 31.-An i'm
portant conference of Governors Of
five States for the discussion of tie
night rider situation and the sugges-
ton of remedial measures will proba-
bly, be held in Memphis during the
progress of the coming masS-meeting
Of cotton growers and allied inter-
ests. Acting on the suggestion of Har-
vie Jordan, President of the Southern
Cotton association, and following the
expressed intention of Gov. NJ. r. Pat
terson to invite such a conference at
an early date, every effort is being
put forth to have the meeting held
at Memphis.
1t is generally recognized That the
night rider situation in certain Sec
lions is paramount even to the grow
ers and ginners, and it is believed
that the big mass-meeting to be held
in this city on Nov. 10, IL and II
is the logical place for the
Governors conference. II has been
suggested that the conference be held
on November II, and the subject on
night-riding will form the chief TO-
pic for discussion at the mass meet
ing on that day.
