BALLOoNIsT's DARING LEAP.
From Burning Craft Falls Through
Roof and Lives.

Berlin. Extraordinary good for
tune favored a German aeronaut who
leapt from a burning balloon and es-
capped death. The wind blew the bal
loon toward Augsburg and then, sud
denly, dense clouds Of smoke and
flames were seen issuing from the en-
velope. The balloon began to fall
rapidly and the aeronaut, realizing
his immediate danger, took his life in
his hands and leaped, to the horror
of the thousands of spectators who
were watching from below.
The houses stood thick beneath him
and he fell on the roof of an English
girls school and crashed through it
He escaped injury miraculously and
crawled downstairs. After sailing oveI

demolished by the flames.

How to Keep Them In Good Condition
In an Apple Cellar.


An apple cellar should be the tidicsr
and sweetest corner Of the house.
Nothing else should ever he stored in
it. Its walls should be at least twenty
inches thick, and it should have album
dant light All summer it should be
open TO drafts Of air and kept free of
any decay.
There should he no moldy boards or
any smell Of mildcW In other words.
the air should be fit to breathe. When
the apples are stored the drafts should
be stopped, and when steady cold sets
in you should shut the cellar tight and
let it stay tightly closed until May.
You can place such a cellar as this
conveniently under part of your barn
or under your carriage house, only
there should be no stable adjacent.
The floor overhead should be covered
with autumn leaves spread thickly to
prevent any change Of atmosphere be
low The thermometer all winter
should stand at about SO, Just above
freezing. Put your apples in shallow
bins, cement the floor to keep out rats,
and if barrels are used set them up
somewhat from the floor.-Outing Mag

How to MANAGE a Life Preserver.

"The worst trouble about life pre-
server" said an old sailor, lis that
few people know what to do with one
when it's thrown to them. Many a
man would drown in trying to get a
life preserver over his head. The av-
erage person struggling about in the
water would try to lift up the big life
ring and put it over his head. That
only causes the man to sink deeper
and take more water into his lungs.
The proper way to approach life
preserver in the water is to take hold
of the side nearest you and press upon
it with all your weight. That causes
the farther side to fly up in the air
and down over your head, ringing
you as neatly as a man ringing a cane
at a country fair. After that mister
drowning man can be rescued"

NOTHING TO CONCEAL.
Chester I. Long Discusses His Connec-
ton With McMurray.

Washington , June 27.-The senate
committee appointed by Vice President
Sherman to investigate the charges OF
irregularities in connection with the
McMurray contracts in Oklahoma will
meet in Washington and outline the
work to be done. The committee is to
do It's work in the vacation of congress.
II has been announced that the house
committee will be gin work in Oklahoma
City early in August. and 1t is a prac
teal certainty that the senate commit
tee will begin work first. The scope
of the work authorized by the senate
resolution is much less than in the
house resolution, and 1t may be that
the senate committee will do its work
soon and finish for the summer, though
most of tire senators wish to go home
before taking up other work.
Chester l. Long, former senator from
Kansas, who has been frequently mem
toned in connection with the charges
n ade by Senator Gore, may conduct
the defense N the house and senate
committee Investigations into the Gore
charges Long has said that as there
is no charge that he had any part in
offering anyone money OF attempting to
use undue influence in any way there is
no reason for him to make a statement.
That 1 have been an attorney for
McMurray and expected to be interest
ed in the contracts if they were ap-
proved s known to everybody" he said.
L
HE publicity when they printed a story
that if the contracts were confirmed
they would make me million dollars.
I would be glad to receive that much
money, but am afraid I would not get
it if the contracts were approved. OF
course, I would receive d very good
compensation. 1 have appeared for Nc
Murray before the department of the.
interior, and with Senator Thurston !
appeared for him this year in two very
extended hearings before the attorney
general, Mr.. Wickersham, and the Sec
rotary of the interior, Mr.. Ballinger,
but there was never any attempt by
me or by McMurray to hide that con-
nection. We simply made the argu-
me mt to show why we thought the con-
tracts ought to be confirmed. l have
every reason for believing that Mr.. Nc
Murray can show that neither he nor
anyone authorized to speak for him ever
offered Senator Gore or any other SEN
ator DOLLAR"
Long has been McMurray's attorney
for about year, or at least he has
been connected with the effort to get
the approval of the contracts made by
McMurray with the Choctaw and Chick
asaw tribes of Indians
Just exactly what his connection was
to be with the division of the money
is not stated. but it appears from 9TH
err information that McMurrsr was so
handling his fight that whoever helped
him was TO be ta,.en in on a percent
age basis. There are said to be sew
eral persons who were to have per-
centages of the proceeds of the sales
of Indian lands If the attempt won,
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1910-06-27

but it is probable that one of the first
things shown in the investigation Will
be that McMurray was not paying out
of the three-quarter million dollars
that his firm got as a fee in another
transaction for the same Indians but
merely taking in some partners.
In addition to the sales that were to
be made of the segregated lands there
is . contract to collect from the gov
eminent some 6 or millions claimed
on account of the leased lands. The
two tribes claimed to have owned GER
tain lands in Western Oklahoma which
have been opened to settlement. and
the Indians claim that thew were not
paid for it. Legislation to pay the In
dams was necessary, and McMurray
has contract which would make
him the agent to get the legislation
and give him 10 per cent on that. That
legislation has not been passed, but
McMurray is patient man, and
though he has lost for this session on
both transactions. he has by no means
lost faith in his ultimate ability to get
them both.
The defense will, of course. be that
no1itics is behind the fight. The Choc-
taw and Chickasaw tribes are allowed
the right of citizens and SO far most
of them have voted the Republican
ticket The Indians. of course, want
the money. and for that reason many
of them would rather that the sales
were made and the claims collected.
McMurray's Republican friends assert
that if they had been able to get the
money McMurray would have been
able to bring most of the Indians into
the Republican camp.

have not forgotten this day, which
their ,forefathers always celebrated,
and this year, under the auspices of
this organization the day was cele-
brated by the Scandinavian people in
old country style. The festivities COM
menced at o'clock in the evening.
The music for the occasion was fur
nished by the M. w. A. band.
The principal speaker was Rev. A.
Sjolander of the Swedish Baptist
church of this city. A special feature
of the program was the Swedish May
pole march, a feature which is always
a part of a Scandinavian midsummer's
day program. Several of the old
Swedish games formed part of the
entertainment for the evening.
A large crowd was present and an
enjoyable time was reported by every
body. In fact the occasion was in
every way a success. and it is the in
tention of this organization to make
the celebration of this day an annual
event.

Secretary H. L. Cook of the Kansas
State Fair association this morning
Arrangements are progressing salts
factorily, and entries for the live stock
and other departments are gratifying
THE wall of the stock pavilion,
which will accommodate $50 head of
cattle, have been completed and the
contractors now are ready to put on
the roof. improvements will be made
on the interior of the agricultural
building in readiness for county ex-
hibits, six of which already have been
promised.
Then the north wing of the building
will be f1oored and finished for the fine
arts and textile departments. Here
demonstrations and lectures on cooking
will be given by the domestic science
department of the Kansas Agricul-
tural college.
Ten thousand japanese fans, adver-
Using the fair will be distributed on
trains and in agricultural communities,
and five hundred pairs of large horse
covers bearing the words, Kansas
State fair, Topeka, September 10-17,
will be given to 407 rural free delivery
carriers and drivers of delivery
wagons in Kansas.
ION the fair grounds water already
has been put in, and sewer connections
are being made. There are other i'm
provements contemplated which will be
completed before the opening in Sep
TENDER.
Race entries indicate the best line
of horses that ever have run in topeka
will be here for the exposition.
"The Great American Ladies band
under leadership of Miss May Butler
will give daily concerts in the fair,
commencing with a sacred concert
Sunday afternoon, September T."
Through I. D. Graham. some inter
esting features have been promised py
the Agricultural college.
DR.. F. S. Schoenleber will show path
illogical specimens illustrating the Ell
fects of the hog cholera, and Will make
practical demonstrations of the use OF
The new hog cholera serum. This
doubtless will be a drawing card for the
farmers.
There will be a real dairy on the
grounds under the supervision of Pror.
J. c. Kendall. All tools necessary in
the operation OF a sdccessIul daIry Will
be on exhibition
Prof. A. M. Ten Eyck will show
grains anc grasses with special rela-
ton to the development of farm crops
through seed breeding, and probably
will lecture on the subject.
Mrs. Mary p Van Ziie of the domes-
tic science and arts department of the
Agricultural college, will arrange an
exhibit for the fair, and will give prac-
teal demonstrations, in cooking.
Prof Kenzer will exhibit breeding
stock, and as he is cattle expert this
department should be of high stand
ara.
There will be $3.50 to be turned over
to the fair association on account of
the recent aviation meet. 1t was

anteed the meet would have to make
I'D a deficit The total receipts were
