EVERY good citiz n will get out and
vote Tuesday. The man who refuses
to take the trouble to vote once in
two years is failing to perform his
duty as citizen and as a neighbor.
Every man owes something to society,
and this is one of the methods by which
he can discharge that obligation.

SPIRIT WARNING SAVES
CH|LO'S LIFE AND JEWELS
supernatural Warning Leads Family to Babes Room and
to Protect Jewels When Murderer -Robber Has En-
tered the House Prominence of Family Gives
Credence to Story aud New York Has
Another Sensation

New York, Oct. 22.-,Here is the
story of how a childs life and a for
/ tune in jewels weSe saved from a
burglar murderer by warning given
by spirit, which after sounding the
warning, took the emergency in It's
own hands and drove the intruder
away.
This strange tale is youched for
by one of the most prominent and
wealthy st. Louis families who
spend part of each year in this city
and who, CIbeylng the orders of their
spirit burglar alarm, have come
boldly forward with full particulars,
to which are attached the.r correct
names.
Jordan w. Lambest, millionaire
chemist, with offices in New York
and st. Louis; Mrs. Helen Lambert,
his wife; his six -year-old son Jordan
W., jr., and VIII and Lille Hanne-
gan, clorks in Mr.. LamOert's employ
are the persons involved.
According to the statement made
by Mrs. Lambert, her son was asleep
in the nursery adjacent to the par
lor in which experiments in physics
phenomena were going on.
''We sat little while with ali the
lights turned up" she said, "and
Will Hannegan raised his hands
above his head and we saw one of
his arms grow right out of his
sleeves until 1t was nearly foot
over its normal length. 1t was cold
and clammy, and pretty soon it
shrunk back to it's regular length.
"Then suddenly all of us were
ierked from our seats and led by
some invisible force into my sons
playroom, where he was sleeping in
his cot After being led back to
the table we put out the lights,

HON. JAMES E. CAMPBELL
FOR THE u. s. SENATE

The republican party of Ohio has
discarded end discre;ited the impe-
rial Foraker Spies and harpies eth
er paid by William II. Hearst or
holding position by the grace of His
Majesty, the Hon Theodore Rooss-
welt, now have their query at bay
and one Of Chios uoblet sons is taxi
ing the final count in hopeless
conflict.
It Is not improbable however, that
as the people of Ohio are made
acquainted with the crowniug in
fanny that, under the sanction #
the Tafts, Roosevelt aud the rest,
has been accomplished in the dis.
grace OF Senator Foraker, they will
probably turn to that other knight
of the political arena the Hon,
James b. Campbell to maintain in
the senate of the United States the
loftiest ard best traditions of this
great common wealth.
There is not today in the state OF
Chic a man who Is mere complete-
ly in touch with the people of the
state and their needs than Is Hon,
James H. Campbell. There are few
others in Ohio who are so well
equipped TO cope with the forces nf
republicarlsm as q member of the
senate minority as IS Mr.. Campbell.
Brilliant and accomplished he bears
the scars of some of the fiercest po-
litieel conflicts this state has ever
witnessed. Once vanquishing for the
governorship the man he Is about to
suc2eed in the senate, with MATCH
less skill he met upon the rostmm
the be'cwed Mckinley, who was one
OF the most potent forensic debaters
OF his time. Defeated in the election
of 1891 the good broadswords both
OF Campbell and of Mckinley were
sheathed without malice and they
were friends to the very end. There
was no more sincere mourner at

That campaign was one of exciting
and drematlc interest. AS "whirl-
wind perfomance' 1t has never been
exceeded In any state in the Union
Under the fierce searohlight of the
opposition Campbell although u de-
feated, still retained the respect of
his politlcsl enemies and the love Of
his party lie had volunteered to serve
in that contest. In connection with
the nomination Of Gov. Campbell a,
Springfield in 1895 there Is AN incl
dent worthy of remembrance. When

FLYING KITES UNDER WATER
Object to Warn Ships When Ap-
preaching Dangerous Places.

The flying of kites was for many
years regarded as childish sport, but
those toys, as men were wont to re-
gard them, have become in the pres
ent day most valuable aids to science.
But the strangest of all kites yet
invented Is one constructed by the
famous Swedish engineer, Siostrand.
This kite is not to be flown in the
air.
1t is to fly beneath the waters of the
sea-
This novel kite is made of light
canvas adjusted to light but strong
metal frame, and in shape Is not dis
similar to the aerial kite except that
It is made in two sections. the lower
and smaller one depending from the
upper, with which it is connected by
a sort of coupling.
The object sought by Mr.. Sjostrand
was to provide ships with an ever
ready automatical guard or watch that
would give instant alarm ir the YES

The under water kite Is fastened To-
a thin wire cable attached to a winch
on deck.
When the kite Is thrown overheard
II sinks in consequence of the oh
lique pressure brought to bear upon
II by the water, just as the land kite
is raised and maintained aloft by the
pressure of the air.
With the winch the kite is lowered
or raised at will, and forming a por
tion of this winch is scale and a reg.

or metres at which 1t is floating.
The curve of the cable to which
che kite is attached never varies what.
ever the speed of the vessel or the
condition of the weather, so that IN.
kite always remains at the exact
depth fixed by the winch.
The purpose of the water kite Is
TO float beneath or beside the ship at
depth that is sufficient to ensure
safety.

During recent experiments with
this submarine kite 1t was noticed
that the vessel was followed by whole
