WHERE DEATH Turks

The style of strap used in the cars
is one which affords an inviting field
for germ incubation. 1t is composed
of two pieces of leather stitched to-
gether In the center OF the strap, be-
tween the two pieces of leather which
lap at the ends. is a strip of coarse
burlap as a filing. In the case OF the
specimen examined by the bacteriolo-
gist the stitching had burst or worn
and the filing had been stained as
well as the leather, with the hand
perspiration OF the thousands OF per-
sons of all classes and colors who had
used it in the years that it had done
service. Throughout the city there are
hundreds Of such worn and germ in
fected car straps. ever source OF dis
ease, a lurking place for death
1t is probable that immediate recog-
milton will be taken of the facts ex-
posed by Doctor Dannenbaum's efforts
and an ordinance enacted by the SUI
pervisors that will eliminate the dan
ger as it now exists. 1t has been
proposed that heavy canvas straps be
substituted for the present leather
ones. These could be detached weekly
and funligated and would be inexpen-
sive.
From the observations of car equip
ment and the announcement OF the
varieties of death to be found inside
the car it is the opinion of Doctor DAN
nenbaum that there is more danger
behind the streetcar tenders than in
front OF them.

LONG DEFERRED ATTEMPT OF
WELIIMAN TO CROSS
OCEAN BEGUN
SIX PASSENGERS ARE ABOARD
Wireless Message Received at Noon
States That Machinery Is
Running Smoothly
By Associated Press.

ATLANTIC CITY, Oct. 15-
The long deferred attempt of
Walter Wellman, the journal
list, aeronaut and explorer, to
cross the Atlantic ocean in a
dirigible airship, was begun
this morning when his balloon
America" left it's hanger and
disappeared in the fog over
the ocean. There are six men
in the airship, provided with
provisions for a month. Their
only means of cooking is a
small oil stove. 1t is estim-
ated that the two engines with
which the craft is supplied will
push the balloon through the
air at the rate of 26 miles an
hour. A wireless message re-
ceived at noon from Wellman
said: "All well on board, fog
lifting. Machinery working
smoothly, making twelve knots
an hour"
Tonopah daily bonanza. [volume] (Tonopah, Nev.) 1906-1929, 1910-10-15

The America is a larger craft
than the one in which Wellman
started to the North Pole. The gas
bag, shaped like cigar, is 22S feet
long and So feet wide and is said
to be capable of lifting twelve tons.
In addition to the two gasoline en-
gines for motive power, there is a
small donkey engine. Beneath the
passenger car hangs small boat
for use if the balloon should become
wrecked. 1t is intended to sail the
balloon at an average height of 200
feet.
Word has just been received from
the weather bureau at Washington
that a West Indian storm and hur-
ricane is coming up from the east.
Efforts are being made to warn
Wellman by wireless telegraphy.

This EVENIN
BRIDE-TO-BE ARRIVES TO-DAY
FROM EASTERN HOME
TO BE WED

w. r. McCaw, formerly of the
local postoffice force, but who is
now conducting the pool rooms on
Main street, left on this mornings
train for Millers. He was all logged
out, even to a boiled shirt, and
gave as an excuse that he was going
to the mill city on business. OF
course none disputed his word, but
when he returned ON the noon train,
accompanied by Miss Emma Wilson
of Waterveliet, New York, it became
apparent that the sound of wedding
bells would soon be in evidence.
The wedding will come off this
evening at the residence of Mrs. T..
Thomas and Rev. H. L. Burnham
will officiate. "Mc" secured the
license this afternoon and had the
clerks office sworn to secrecy.
Somehow the news leaked out and
if the couple are not given a real
serenade by the kids, it will be be-
cause the weather will not permit
the youngsters to be about
The couple have been engaged for
several years and Miss Wilson left
her eastern home about a week ago.
Just why McCaw wished the matter
kept secret is not known, but as he
has tendency to be bashful, it is
presumed that he desired to spring
surprise on his many friends.
At that, the entire affair is a
secret and, of course, secrets should
not become known. However, we
extend our congratulations. The
couple will make their future home

The shooting was done by Walter
A. Hurtz, a quarrelsome ranch hand.
The men exchanged words last
night and Hurtz retired in an ugly
mood. Entering the. room this
morning where Ketchel was eating
breakfast Hurtz aimed rifle and
ordered him to throw up his hands
Instead of complying Ketchel arose
with his back half turned to his
assailant and Hurtz, who was only
few feet away, fired, the bullet
entering below the right shoulder
blade and going through the right
lung. Ketchel fell to the floor and
Charles Bailey, who rushed in, saw
Hurtz disappearing through the
doorway. Pointing to the rapidly
vanishing man, Ketchel said: "He
shot me-" and managed to briefly
tell the details before lapsing into
unconsciousness. He did not revive
until 2 o'clock this afternoon, wher
he recognized friends. The physic
ians say Ketchel will probably die
Hurtz is still at large.
