PRINCE NELSON
DOES HEROIC
ACT At FAIR
REscUEs MAN FROM WIRE WHO
HAD BEEN SHOCKED INsENsI.
BILE BY ELECTRIC CURRENT
MAN WILL RECOVER,

Prince Nelson, the tight wire walker
at the Interstate Fair, and the only
man who has ever walked a wire
across Niagara Falls, risked his life
in a most daring manner yesterday
afternoon at 8 o'clock when he walked
out upon the tight wire without any
article with which to balance himself
to save the life of one of his employees
who was shocked into Inconsistencies
and was dangling in mid-air from the
wire, being held only by a strap
fastened to his waist.
Albert Kolas, an employee of Prince
Nelson, was arranging an electric wire
across the wire upon which Prince
Nelson performs, when in some man
ner he touched live wire which sent
1900 volts Of electricity through his
body. When the current hit him he
fell head downward, only one leg
touching the wire and he was thus
suspended fifty feet above the earth
with the current still shocking him.
Prince Nelson Hero.
The crowd who had been watching
the workman was horror stricken and
no one dared approach the high poles
for fear of being killed by the cur
rent. Without hesitating a minute,
however, Prince Nelson climbed up the
high pole, and, with bare hands, twist
ed the heavy copper electric wire in
two and then walked out across the
wire, high above the ground. 1t was a
relief to the thousands who witnessed
this act of daring to see the hero reach
the body of Kolas. Large canvass
cloths were secured and hundreds Of
willing hands held them below, into
which it was intended to drop the body
of the electrician, but the hero had a
clear head and while he steadied him
self upon the wire and kept the victim
from falling from out of the belt
which held him, directed that a block
another volunteered to ascend to give
the assistance of rescuing the ap-
parently lifeless body.
Perilous Work.
In christening the body from the
wire and placing 1t into the arms Of
the man in the trapese was perilous
work, requiring the risk Of three lives
and a wonderful amount Of nerve and
strength. Balancing himself upon the
wire, Prince Nelson unstrapped the
body from the wire and placed it into
the arms of the trapeze man, who was
then lowered to the ground bearing
the limp body of the electrician.
For a moment the crowd forgot
about the unfortunate man, all eyes
being conferred upon the hero in the
red costume, and despite the serious
accident and without knowing whether
Ko1as was dead or not the crowd gave
a cheer for the man who risked his
life to assist his friend.
Physicians on the grounds gave i'm
mediate assistance to Kolas and-he
was rushed to a local sanitarium in
an unconscious condition. Attending
physicians announced last night that
the young man was severely shocked,
but that he will recover.
A representative of The Journal was
one of the witnesses to the unfor-
tunate occurrence.

New York. Nov. S.-Some large gains
We're made by inactive stocks in the early

gained 4 points and Consolidated Cas-

Northern Pacific, st. Paul and Rock

The trend of prices became definitely
downward and some of the strong special

their gains. United States Steel was sold

Irregularity prevailed in the stock mar
ket throughout the morning. Movements
were hesitating and contradictory, but
in spite of large gains by inactive indus
trials the list as whole developed pro-
nounced weakness. Heavy selling Of the
speculative leaders depressed prices Of
these issues and the market seemed to
possess little raIlying power. The cotton
ginning report was without effect, al
though it established a new record. Mar
ket observers regarded the movement or
stocks natural in view Of the recent ex-
tended advance and the reduction of the
short interest. The selling pressure re-
Taxed during the second hour. Prices.
however, showed little inclination to
harden, speculation becoming almost
stagnant around the new low levels and
the professionals stopped selling. A few
stocks showed independent strength, but
their movement was Ignored by the gen
eral market. Rock Island stocks adj
vanced 1 to 1 1-2 on rather inactive deal

The market developed a gradually

The monthly figures of the copper pro-
ducers showing a decrease in stocks on
hand of nearly 6,000,0 pounds and a
large increase in foreign and domestic

COTTON MARKET
CLOSES STEADY

New York. Nov. S.-The cotton market
opened steady at an advance of to Z
points In response to higher Liverpool
cables than expected. The census re-
port showing 9,9S6,172 bales ginned to
November 1 comparing with 1855 953 last
year was considered quite in line with
beariSh expectations, and the tone be-
bear1sh pressure, scattering liquidation
and selling of December by houses with
southern connections The latter feature
attracted considerable attention, as
suggesting the probability of shipments
here from the south for delivery on con-
tract, and the market later in the morn
ing eased off to about the closing figures
of Monday.
The wet weather in the month seemed
to make no impression on sentiment as
temperatures were not unreasonable and
the easier tendency noted right after the
call continued until the market showed
net loss of about to 9 points with
January contracts selling within a point
of the low record of the season.
A considerable demand was encountered

CHICAGO GRAIN
AND PROVISIONS
BY Associated Press.

Chicago, Nov. S.-A rebound in the
wheat market today followed further
decline due to weak cables. The buying
which caused the rally was said to be
the result of bullish dispatches from the
Argentine. First prices here were 3-S, to
1c down. December started at go to 90
3-S. a loss of 1-2 to lie, and then rose to
92 rs to 93c.
Corn rallied promptly when it was found
that offerings were slim. Better weather
and bearish foreign news had depress-
ing influence early. December opened
IA to 3-Sc off to like amount up and
afterward climbed to So SAC.
In the oats pit the course of prices
was moderate. December started IA to
3-8c lower at as to 46 1-Sc, and assembled
to IS 1-2 to 5-Sc.
General selling by commission houses
carried provisions in a downward direc-
ton. The slow market for hogs appeared
to be responsible. First transactions
were 1-2 to 10c higher with May de-

WONBY WOMAN
MRS. OSCAR WILLIAMS, OF MUS
coeEE, WAS SUCCESSFUL CON-
TEsTANT YESTERDAY, MAKING
SECOND YEAR IN SUCCESSION
- THIS PRIZE HAS BEEN WON by
HER.

For the second time in succession,
the prize in the corn judging contest
was won by a woman at the Interstate
Fair yesterday, the winner this time
being Mrs. Oscar Williams. Robert
Coley took second prize and w. H.
Wilson third. There were nine con-
testants.
This is one of the most instructive
contests of the entire fair and that in
terest in it is increasing is shown by
the number of entries this year, which
is considerably in excess Of the num-
Der who contested last year.
The contestants were allowed to
judge and score several specimens OF
corn, after which the expert judges
in charge of the affair passed upon
the judgment of each, scoring them
according to the regular standard used
in judging corn.
The complete scores and standing of
the contestants was as follows:

rain was shown over the cotton region,
but the rains had no stimuIatfve effect
on the market. At the end of the first
half hour of business, prices were to
points under yesterdays close.
A recovery put the most active months
l to s points over yesterdays close and
this slight advance tempted heavy selling
the bulk of which appeared TO come from
strong bear traders who were basing
their operations on the ginners' returns
heavy rains were reported in private de-
spatches from many parts of the belt and
the prediction was made that bears would
md the low grade of the crop a powerful
weapon for their use later on. The Cos
sip OF the market in connection with the
census figures was TO the effect that they
confirmed crop guesses of Il, 600, 900 bales
Selling was scattered late in the morning
and prices were to IL points under yes
terday,s close. At noon prices were to

MIRACLES ARE
YET POSSIBLE
ONE HAPPENED YESTERDAY
WHEN ONE BACHELOR Gov
ERNOR AND TWO FARMERS
GAVE SATISFACTION AS JUDGES
AT BABY SHOW.

One bachelor governor and two
sturdy farmers accomplished the i'm
possible yesterday afternoon when
they presided as judges for the baby
show at the Interstate Fair. 1t is
always supposed that no matter what
the decisions of the judges may be
that the mothers of the babies who
fail to get the prizes will be angry,
but such was not the case yesterday.
Mothers of babies who were not
prize winners were so well satisfied
with the decisions of the judges that
they went by the tent of the Daugh-
tiers of Isabella after the show to tell
the ladies in charge of the movement
that they thought the judging was as
fair as could be. This is an unusual
procedure but is a high compliment
to the able Judges.
