The TANNED control wire arrested tn .
biplane's flight so suddenly as to cause
the machine to capsize, carrying Cap
tain Longstaff with it to the ground.
AS soon as the machine had fallen
men rushed out from the hangers and
started to assist the two men. 1t was
several minutes before Longstaff's
body was extracted. His skull was
badly fractured and many bones in his
body were broken. Chevalier. twenty
feet from the machine, was found to
have severe injuries about the head. A
piece Of one of the bamboo supports
on the machine had penetrated his
right eye, destroying the sight.
After the men had been rushed to
the hospital in the automobile Of Will
lam Kipp, a friend of Longstaff, the
Englishmans friends tried to get into
communication with his wife and step
daughter, -fiss Jackson Taylor. who
are said TO be in New York City.
Neither of the women had arrived at
the hospital when Captain Longstaff
breathed his last.
From letters found in Longstaff's
pockets it is known that he formerly
lived In Leeds. England, and after re-
firing from the army had entered the
service Of the Mexican insurgents as an
air scout. He held a pilots license
from the Royal Aero Club of England
and was about thirty-five years old.

SITUATION CHAOTIC AS
BOOMS HIT SYRACUSE
Governor the Logical Tammany
Candidate, but Murphy May
Throw Him Over.
BOSS TO BE IN CONTROL
Dix Won't Have Delegates
from His Own District
They Will Be for Mayor
Burns of Troy.

tFrom stan Correspondent OF The Tribune. ]
Syracuse, Sept. 2s.-Although the Demo-
cratic State Convention will not begin Its
sessions until next Tuesday boomers of
some ambitious candidates got here to-
night and began to display their wares.
They persisted in their booming, despite
the fact that Murphy, of Tammany, de-
clares he is for Dix and that Governor
Dix himself predicts his denomination. be-
cause the Democratic party can't do
otherwise.
1t is a highly interesting situation which
confronts the Democrats. They've got to
make their campaign on the record OF
their two years Of state control The
events Of those years have alienated
many important and influential Demo-
Gratis, because they demonstrated so com
pletely the power of Tammany Hall over
the rest of the Democracy. as it exists In
this state, and It's head of the Democratic
administration. That has come back on
Governor Dix, so that to-day he stands
virtually as the candidate of Tammany
Hall alone, and there Is no certainty that
Murphy won't dump him overheard when
ever ne pIeaSeS. lDUeeu, tHeie 10 c'i N'io
suspicion that he has intended to do 20
all along. and has just been playing with
the Governor and keeping him quiet by
letting him amuse himself with his sec
ond term boom.
The sentiment against Dix among up
staters is shown by the fact that he won't
have the delegates from his Congress
district for him. Joseph Murphy, OF
Troy. son OF ex-senator Murphy. Is here
with the tender boom OF Mayor Cornelius
j. Burns, of that city in his keeping. IL
is expected that he will have the dele

John A. Mason, secretary Of the Demo

tary TO Governor Dix, got here tonight 10

He proclaimed the utmost confidence that
the Governor would be a second termer

there is so much opposition at the start

for Dix's confidence, they don't let that

Sheep that are well kept and fed

and cannot only be kept in better
shape. but can be kept much more

pounds of grain will go toward getting

CARING FOR SHEEP
IN COLD WEATHER

One OF the first essentials Of manag-
ing sheep In the fall OF the year is to
provide proper shelter. says the Ameri-
can Agriculturist. The cold rains and
damp nights OF the fall season. like
those Of the spring. are a source OF con-
slant danger. Unless given proper pro-
lection they are sure to catch severe
colds and run badly at the nose and
sometimes develop chronic catarrh or
pneumonia and die. Sheep should
have a good dry shed to sleep and rest
in during the fall. and the shepherd
should take particular care that none
is left out overnight The shed should
be located on high and dry place and
should be kept well bedded to absorb
any moisture that may be present at
any time. 1t should also have plenty

Pumpkins are an efficient and cheap
fall feed for sheep. The seeds possess
great medicinal value as vermifuge,
while the pumpkins have considerable
nutrltive value. The pumpkins should
be scattered broadcast about the sheep

way into the pumpkins and will eat
them up clean with little danger of
