 Cowherd has carried Buchanan county by 1000. Reports received here indicate the result is in doubt The friends of Cowherd contend he has won, but the Ball men are just as confident Ball has carried a number of counties in this section of the state, on the face of the returns, but his pla- ralities are very small.
 In Galloway county Ball received 1,195. Cowherd S57, Wallace 963 and Staple 25. It was believed this coun- ty would go for Cowherd.

St. Louis, Aug. 6-With the returns still meager from the country, there is no good reason for doubting that Will liam s. Cowherd has been nominated for governor. Morton Jourdan has been busy with the long distance tele- phone since daylight calling up friends in country towns.

Echterdingen, Aug. LA dramatic end came Wednesday to Count zep. pelin's long endurance flight in his monster dirigible balloon and Wednes. day night the proud airship which Tuesday was cutting rapidly through the air and outdistancing pursuing automobiles, lies in an open field near here a mass of twisted, useless metal. A chapter of accidents occasioned by bad moods of nature and the failure of mechanical appliances combined was responsible for the untimely end of the balloon, the flights of which have held the attention of the world, and for blasting the ambitions of it's inventor Count Zeppelin. The count, almost heart-broken and unable long. CT to endure the sight of his shat. tered craft, has left by train for Friedrichshafen.
 The airship had left Naekenheim, the scene of it's first mishap, and over night had visited Mayence and begun on the homeward journey when mis fortune overlook it.
 Over Echterdingen, Count Zeppelin decided to land. Although this was the first time that such a maneuver had been attempted with a rigid bal loon, the landing was effected easily aud smoothly, only one of the steel wire stays being broken. Count Zep pelin telcgraphed to Friedrichshafen for more gas cylinders and then went 10 neighboring inn for luncheon He was away for over two hours and was destined to see only the wreck of his airship when he re turned.
 At 2.5S o'clock a formidable gust of wind struck the airship broadside. At first the craft heeled over and then her bows rose in the air, carrying with them a number of soldiers hold ing the ropes. After poising for mo ment at a height of 50 feet it dashed forward against cluster of fruit trees. The impact uprooted them. The airship returned to the earth even more suddenly than 1t rose and came crashing to the ground. With thundcrous report the forward motor exploded From the bows of the balloon shot forth a livid flame, while from the rear escaped thick clouds of black smoke which caused the entire structure to disappear from the view of the thousands of spec tators When the air cleared the bal loon was seen lying in an open field on a high plateau with only the ragged. tangled strips of the alumi- mum envelope still remaining. The metal stays and bands and portions of the motors were strown about in pieces like old iron, and blackened with smoke and scorched.
 Count Zeppelin was immediately sent for. When he arrived and saw the hopeless wreck he broke down. His head was bowed on his chest and tears were streaming from his eyes as he stood in an attitude of despair in front of the shattered mammoth aeroplane Then friends induced him to enter a motor car. and return to Stuttgart whence he left by train for Friedrichshafen.
 An explanation of the accident by experts is that probably one of the balloonettes. of which the immense envelope was constructed, burst and spark from the motor ignited the gas when the balloon was carried into the air,
 Count Zeppelin's secretary said Wednesday night that the count is al- ready preparing plans for another bal loon.

Write out Your Notices

The Tribune must insist upon hav-
ing notices for meetings Of societies
and like things written out and sent
to the office. It is often impossible
to comply with the wishes Of patrons
when requests for such notices are
sent in BY phone. For instance. last
night lady phoned In to run the
same notice, about some kind Of do
ing or. other, that appeared in Sun.
days paper. A search Of the paper
did not reveal such notice and q
great deal Of time was taken chasing
through number OF papers In vain
for that particular notice. A notice
written out and left at the Office will
insure prompt publication. This ought
to be fair in view of the fact that
their publication Is free.
