Keep the Record Straight.
(PreSs and Rannarl

The Columbia State, in publishing
election returns, incorrectly stated
twice that Mr.. Boggs had received
SIT votes in Abbeville county, when
he actually received 282. In sense
difference of $40 votes does not af-
feet the man who Is elected, but in
another sense 1t does. Hundreds of
voters who see only this statement
are left with the impression that the
winning candidate carried his county
by only two votes TO one when as a
matter-of-fact he carried 1t by nearly
six votes to one.

oRvmLE WRIGHT INJURED.
Lieut.. Selfridge Killed In Tragis Air
ship Afishap at Fort Myer.

/" Washington, Sept. 17.-After hav-
ing drawn the attention Of the world
to his aeroplane flights at Fort Myer,
and having established new world
records for heaviel-than-air flying
machines, Oryille Wright met with
tragical mishap while making a
two-man fight.
The aeroplanist was accompanied
by Lieut.. Thomas e. Selfridge, of the
signal corps Of the army. Lieut.. Self
ridge was fatally injured and died at
8 O'Clock tonight. Wright is severe
" injured, but is expected to re-.
cover. While the machine was en-
circling the drill grunds propeller
blade snapped Off. and hitting some
other part of the intricate mechan-
ism caused 1t to overturn in air and
fall to the ground, enveloping its two
occupants in the debris.
Soldiers and spectators ran across
the field to where the aeroplane had
fallen and assisted Wright and Lieut..
Selfridge from under the tangled
mass of machinery, rods, wires and
shreds of muslin.
Wright was conscious and said:
"Oh, hurry and lift the motor" Lieut..
Selfridge was unconscious and had
apparently struck the ground with
force. His head was covered with
blood and he was choking when the
soldiers extricated him from the ma
chine.
Wright and Selfridge were taken to
Fort Myer Hospital. After a hurried
surgical examination it was announc-
ed that Wright was not dangerously
injured. He is suffering from frac-
ture of his left thigh and several of
his ribs on the rikht side are frac-
tured. Both men received deep cuts
about the head.
Wright regained consciousness and
dictated a cablegram to his brother
In LIE Mans, France, and requested
that some message be sent his family
In Dayton, Ohio, assuring them he is
all right.
Fully two thousand persons had
gathered on the parade grounds in
anticipation Of this afternoons flight

THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE
For Governor Of New York-The Re-
publicans Arraigned.

Rochester,. N. Y, Sept. 16.--Nom-
mating all but one of It's candidates
by reclamation, and adopting plat
form which arra'gns the administers
tion of Governor Hughes and pledges
earnest support TO the Denver plat
form and candidates, tbs Democratic
. State Convention to-day nominated
as the head Of its ticket for Governor
the present Lieutenant Governor Of
the State, Lewis Stuyyesant Chanler,
of Duchess county. John 4. Dix, of
Washington county, was nominated
for Lieutenant Governor All oppo-
sition of Mr.. Chanler disappeared af-
ter conference Of the State leaders,
which occupied greater part Of last
night. The ticket decided upon by
the leaders, with one exception, SEEM
ed to meet the approval of all the
delegates, and the nominations were
made with great enthusiasm until the
office of State engineer and surveyor
was reached. The conference candi-
date for this office was Philip p.
Farley, Of Brooklyn, an anti-McCar-
man. Senator McCarren, amid the
cheers OF his supporters, took the
platform "to resent an insult"
He declared the nomination OF
Farley was agreed to without any
regard to the Kings county delega-
tion and was intended to embarrass
them. He declared he would always
support Democratic nominees, but
would not hold himself responsible
for the action of the people who felt
themselves insulted.
Farley won on a roll call, but a
motion to make the nomination
unanimous was lost by two or three
scattering negatives.
Judge Alton B. Parker, who was
permanent chairman Of the conyen-
ton, addressed the gathering.
The convention adjourned without
day after United States Senator G. Gore
of Oklahoma had made brief ad-
dress.
The promises of reform upon
which the present Governor was
elected" the platform alleges, "have
not been kept. We point as proof Of
this fact to the expenditures Of 1907,
which are larger than the extrava-
CANT sums expended under the prede-
cessors of Governor Hughes. We
charge him with the responsibility
for this waste and with giving his
time and attention to the pursuit Of
spectacular methods and self-adver-
tising issues rather than to the work
OF reform and retrenchment, upon
the promise of which he was elected
Governor two years ago. We insist
that in this most important feature
of his administration he has been
derelict and remiss. Instead of cut
ting off the tax eaters from the list of
oficeholders he has caused new ones
to be added to 1t, and in the two pub
lie service commissions which have
been brought into existence at his
suggestion and dictation, he has Gre
ated officeholders who have woefully
failed to better the condition of af-
fairs contided to their charge"

A TERRIBLE REWARD.
CromwelPs Payment For tho Capture
Of Pembroke Castle,

STo"we"S Fayment for tho Capture
Of Pembroke Castle.
During the struggle between King
Charles and the parliament Pembroke
castle was so we'll fortified that Crom-
well, with all his cannon, could not
take it.
After many failures he gave up his
intention and began to march on for
Tenby. But before he had proceeded
far a country shoemaker came up to
Cromwell and asked him whether no
would reward him If he would tell him
how to get the castle into his possess
sion.
Cromwell. very glad of this offer,
consented. Then this old shoemaker,
glad to get some money. as no doubt
he was rather poor, told him that there
was a pipe through which they got
their water and that if he were to cut
the pipe the castle would surrender.
Cromwell said. II thank you for the
information you have given me, but as
you have turned traitor to your coun-
trymen the only reward will give you
is that you shall be hanged on the very
next tree that I come to-"
Cromwell had the shoemaker hanged
and cut the pipe he had told him of,
leading to the castle. which then sur
rendered.--London Telegraph.

command of the Twenty-sixth infantry
(mostly volunteers from New England)
In the Philippines, he organized from
his regiment company OF mounted
scouts. To equip them for this service
he made requisition on headquarters
for the necessary outfit, including
eighty nosebags. Some Off1ciOus clerk
in the quartermaster's Office In Ma
Mia returned the requisitiOn to Colo
mel Rice with these written re-
marks: "Your report shows but sixty
men in your mounted company. Why
do you require eighty nOsebags?"
The coloners explanation was short
and characteristic. 1t was: ut is true
I have but sixty men. but have eighty
horses. The nosebags are for the
horses. not for the men,"
