PICKED UP At SEA
WeIlman and Grew Compelled
to Abandon AiTShip.
RESCUE IS A THRILLING C"E
Transfer of People From an Aerial
Craft to a Steamer Without
Parallel in History.

New York. Oct. 19.-Man's first at
tempt to cross any ocean in an airship
has failed, but Walter Wellman, five
companions and kitten, who essayed
the voyage, are safe. The airship--
the giant Americas a battered eer-
ial derelict, abandoned at sea, perhaps
still in the air, perhaps sunk beneath
the waves with her costly equipment.
When deserted she had been in the
air probably seventy-two hours, new
worlds record for dirigibles, and.
driven by the wind, has travelled
doubtless 500 miles. Whether the dis
lance record for dirigibles-S70 miles
also will be broken remains to be
computed.
Picked up by the steamship Trent
off the North Carolina coast Wellman
and his fellow air navigators are due
In New York today.
They left their craft only because
she was in distress and blown so far
from the line of transatlantic steam
ship travel that a continuation of the
voyage with the British isles as the
objective point was hopeless. So,
summoning aid by wireless, the diff
cult and dramatic transfer to the
Trent was accomplished and the
America was left to the fate of the
winds.
Transfe rred TO the Steamer
For an incident without parallel in
history-the transfer of passengers
from an airship to a steamship-mea-
ger were the details obtained by wire.
less. Wireless, at all times more or
less uncertain. was rendered more so
by the tropical storm which swept
northward, but wireless stations in
the vicinity of New York picked up
from the Trent word here and
word there. simplifying on the early
dispatches.
1t was learned that Wellman had
found it necessary to rid the airship
of the burden of most of it's gasoline,
retaining only enough to reach land in
the event the Trent had not come to
the rescue. When the steamship
needed the calls of distress and drew
near it's aerial sister Wellman shouted
his predicament through a megaphone
and decided that he would lower his
lifeboat, which swung from the diri-
gible's belly. AS precaution the
Trent lowered her lifeboats, which
stood by until the transfer was effect
ed and Wellman and his crew, even
down to the frightened, squirming kit
ten, were safe on board the liner, sur
rounded by the excited passengers.
The America is, or was, 28S feet
long and SO feet in diameter, with
lifting capacity Of 23,650 pounds. The
envelope alone weighed two tons.

David B. HILL DEAD
Former Governor Of New York
Passes Away.
HAD BEEF, AILIhG TWO WEEKS
Appeared to Be Recovering From
Bilious Attack When Sinking
Spell Causes Death.

Albany, n Y, Oct. 21.--David p.
Hill, ex-United States senator and for.
mer governor of New York, died sud.
denly at Wolfert's Roost, his country
home.
About two weeks ago Mr.. Hill was
seized with a bilious attack while at
his law office in this city and although
his condition was not considered seri.
Gus at the time his physician advised
him to remain at home until he recov-
cred. A cold developed and a few
days later alarming reports OF his con.
dition were circulated. These re-
ports, however, were denied by friends.
In fact, the patient appeared to be i'm.
proving until just before the end,
when he suffered sinking spell which
resulted in his death.
In the death of David Bennett Hill
another OF the country's great men
and forceful characters has passed
away Mr.. Hill never evaded an is
sue in politics or statecraft. He
thought out the problems which faced
him during long and varied career
along his own lines and acted accord
ing to his own belief as to what was
right. When he had the power he did
not hesitate to use extreme measures
in carrying out his ideas.

Wickham offered to go TO Hayward

RHEUMATISM
PAINFUL. g. DANGEROUS

Rheumatism is due to a diseased
condition of the blood cells and cor
puscles, brought about by an excess
of uric acid in the circulation. 1t is
not only a very painful disease but an
extremely dangerous trouble. The
brlny, acrid state of the blood gradu-
ally forms a coating over the muscles,
and by depositing a cement-like sub
stance in tile joints frequently ter1ni-
mates fatally, or leaves its victim a
hopeless cripple. 1t is natural to
doctor the spot that hurts, and it IS
quite right to use 1iniments, hot appli-
cations, etc, to get temporary relief
from painful joint or swollen tendon;
but Rheumatism is not a skin disease,
and such things, when depended on
alone make one careless, and the dis
ease gets frmer hold on the blood.
S. S. S. cures the disease because it is
the greatest of all blood purifiers. 1t
