gent and Barnes county 1t began rain
ing early in the day and has continued
for hours almost without interruption.
It is an easy gentle rain, coming

farmers had the say. k3~es s.
This is the first real soaking rain
that Ransom and La Moure counties
have received since the beginning OF
the drouth and It will do a vast

Bismarck and throughout the entire
Red river valley on both sides OF the
river and as far north as the boundary
line.
Already farmers who were the most
pessimistic are beginning to take cour-

grains. One farmer stated today that

WOULD KILL, BUT DROPS DEAD.
Insane Husband Stricken as He Tries
to Stab Spouse,

Yonkers, N. W. July 13.-Mrs. Peter
Tripoli owes the fact that she is alive
today to an attack of heart failure
which cased her husband to fall dead,

grew worse as the heat increased and
eventually got into a quarrel with an
iceman over a 10-cent piece of ice.
Suddenly he attacked the iceman with
an ak. His wife and neighbor dis
armed him and soon afterward Mrs.
Tripoli saw him take up knife from
q table.
She tried to disarm him, but he
fought frenziedly, screaming that he
would kill her Finally the woman, ex-
hausted, relaxed her hold. Tripolt

HURLED To
|. THE GROUND
Oscar Erbsloch, Most Noted
Flyer, a Victim
He Won the st. Louis Bal
loon Race Of 1907
Paoted Great War Balloon
POmmern 866 Miles

Leichlingon, Rhenish Prussia, July
13.-Oscar Erbsloch, the German aero
maui who won the international ball
loon race at st. Louis in 1907, and four
companions were killed today when
the dirigible balloon Erbsloch burst at
height Of several hundred feet and
dropped to the ground a crumpled
mass.
The dead are:
OSCAR ERBSLoCH, inventor and
balloonist.
HERR TOELLE, manufacturer Of
barometers.
ENGINEER KRANZ.
ENGINEER HOPPE.
MOTORMAN SPICKE.
The craft was of the non-rigid type,
176 feet in length and 33 feet in d.
ameter. The motors were of 125-horse
power and drove the airship at a speed
of 2Sz miles an hour. The war de-
partment recently purchased one OF
Erbslochs balloons.
The cause Of the accident is a matter
of conjecture, but it is believed that
the bursting OF the bag was due to the
expansion of the gas by the warm sun
shine. The wreckage fell so heavily
that the gondola was broken to bits
and the motor buried in the ground.
The victims were frightfully torn.
Oscar Erbsloch had made many dar-
ing and successful balloon flights. In
the st. Louis aerial race when he won
the international cup which had been
taken the year before by Lieut.. Frank
P. Laham at Paris he covered dis
lance of SIS miles. Starting at st.
Louis he landed at Asbury Park, N. j..
two miles further from the point of
ascent than his nearest competitor, NJ.
Leblanc of France, who came down at
Herbertsville, N. J.
Erbsloch on that occasion piloted the
balloon Pommern.
In February. 1909, Erbsloch made a
remarkable balloon trip across the
Alps. His balloon, the Berlin, remained
in the air for thirty hours. reaching
a maximum altitude of about $4,000
feet On an average a temperature OF
about IL degrees below zero was ex-
perienced.
