WIND DRIVES OVER WATER
Germans Are in lead-BreeZe Carry Ing Aerial Travellers Up Great Lake Almost LengthWise,
 Making Long Crossing.

St. Louis, Oct. 19.-Following the best balloon route in America, that across the Great Lakes and into the vast stretches of Canada, seven Of the ten aeronauts competing in the in ternational race that started from St. Louis were reported in a cluster in the vicinity of Milwaukee, Racine and Chicago
 Their distance from St. Louis was PTS to 335 miles, and several of them are heading boldly across Lake Mich igan.
 In the lead are the Germania, pilot ed by Baron Hugon vonAbercron. and the Rarburg H., piloted by Lieut.. Leopold vogt, with William F. Ass man of St. Louis aboard as aid. Both are rubber army balloons from Ger many. The Germania was the last to start from St. Louis. but distanced its rivals in the night.
 Both the Germania and Harburg III. sailed over Milwaukee at about 6:3O a. m, their courses set directly across Lake Michigan. In a message dropped from the balloon Von Abercron stated

New York, Oct. 19.-The long cam Poe to the Hall of Fame seems to have ended successfully. Next Friday afternoon the senate of New York university will canvass the votes cast in the Quinquennial balloting of the electors, and the men who have urged the cause of the poet and tale-writer since his defeat in 1905 feel sure their fight has been won.
 In an official announcement that the balloting was over there was an ad- mission that the Poe campaign had undoubtedly been influential.

that he would sail across the sea- meaning the lake.
 The Million Club, p1loted by s. Louis von Phul of St. Louis, was sighted over Springfield, Wis, ten miles west of Racine. At and 6:30 two balloon ists, unidentified, passed over Racine going northwest, at such an angle that if they attempted the lake pas sage they would have to cross Lake Michigan almost lengthwise.
 One Said to Have Landed.
 A message received from Von Phul and his aid, John M O'Reilly, stated that they had only IA bags of sand left and they hesitated to attempt to cross the lake on account of the angle at which the wind was carrying them Later a telephone message to Racine announced that balloon had landed ten miles north, near the shore of the lake.
 A message received from Harry E.. Honeywell of the St. Louis No. 4 shows that he is crowding on the heels of the leaders. He passed Gran vile, near Milwaukee, 335 miles north of St. Louis at eight a. m. He was heading due east toward the lake and had A bags of sand left. After a nights trip he had more sand than either of the French balloons took from St. Louis.
 About six miles behind Won Aber- cron, Vogt and Honeywell. tho two French balloons passed over Chicago together at 6:3O a. m. The Condor, the first to start in the race, had fallen behind, possibly because 1t was heavily laden with luxuries.
 Ls Blanc at Zion City.
 La Blanc in the Isle de France, was reported passing over Zion City. Ill.,. 275 miles from St. Louis, at 6:30 a. m. The Condor, piloted by Jacques Faure, was few minutes in the rear.
 Both balloons were travelling north east toward Lake Michigan. The Con- dor was only 400 feet high, and Faure and Ernest G. Schmolck, his aid, could be seen plainly.
 The route followed by the balloons indicates a possibility of breaking rec ords for the Gordon Bennett cup race. In 1907, when the race started in St. Louis, many of the balloons travelled east of northeast and were stopped by the Atlantic seacoast. Oscar Erbs- loeh, the winner, was compelled to descend at Asbury Park, N. J., al though his gas was far from spent.
 Two of six balloons which passed over or near Milwaukee, Wis, and started across Lake Michigan, are known to have made the trip in safety and to be flying over Michigan to Canada.

Best Stomach
 Remedy Free

It is an old saying that if the stoni- ach is sound the whole body IS safe, because so much depends upon the proper working of the stomach. Many persons find themselves with a dis order of the stomach which pro- duces dyspepsia or peculiar state of biliousness.
 If you suffer from both stomach trouble and constipation you are on the way to g. very serious disease. From just such con- dtions come appendicitis, rheumati tism, skin diseases and similar disorders, be- cause the waste matter that should have the bowels has found its way into the blood and vtiated it. What is needed at this point Is not simply a violent cathartic tablet salt, which usually does more harm than good, but a gentle laxative tonic like Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. which people have been using for these ailments for nearly a quarter of a cen tury. It cured J. c. Lanham, of War rensburg. Mo, of stomach trouble of long standing, also William Voll, of 903 Ellis trouble for fifteen years.
 However, If you have stomach trouble you want to know from personal experi- ence what Dr. Caldweirs Syrup Pepsin to the doctor and a free trial bottle will be sent you. You are urged to send for the free bottle, ais the results from it will be the best recommendation Of pr: Cald- wells Syrup Pepsin. Then you will do as over two million people did last year-go to your druggist and buy a regular bottle at 50 cents or $1, according to the size you prefer. We could mention hundreds and hundreds of families who are never without it. You can never tell when some member of the family will need a laxa- tive, and then no time should be lost taking DE. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin.

PROBE DEATH OF F|GHTER
kETCHEL INQUEST IN PROGRESS
 IN SPRINGFIELD, MO.
Feeling Against Slayer of Pusilst Runs High and Violence
 Is Feared.

Springfield, Mo. Oct. 19.-The in quest of Coroner Nichols of Greene county into the staying of Stanley Ketchel, ruiddleweight pugilistic cham pion, near Conway, Mo, Saturday, was begun here. The court room was damned with friends of the dead fighter and others attracted by morbid curiosity.
 Feeling against the slayer of Ketch- el runs high still, and the authorities debated for some time as to whether to bring Dipley from Marshfield, Web ster county, to testify at the hearing.
 Charles Bailey, foreman on the Dickerson ranch, who encountered Dipley a few minutes after he had shot Ketchel and Goldie Smith, alias Fannie liurtz, are the principal wit nesses. That Dipley will be held re- sponsible for Ketchels death Is con- sidered certain, but a recommends ton of indictment for murder is con sidered improbable. The trial of Dip ley will take place at Marshtield, al though Ketchel died in Greene county. A preliminary hearing for Dipley will be held at Marshfield Friday, murder being charged.
 The officials at Marshf1eld contend Dipley's self-defense story is doubt ful. They assert he had a motive far deeper for staying the pugilist.
