boys of his own age, he was on his
way to Glennview golf grounds, where
all were employed as caddies. Pass
more spied the bird floating down
stream with one wing hanging and as
soon as he could throw off his clothings
plunged into the stream.
Friends Attempt Rescue.
The boy succeeded in reaching the
bird, but the current was so strong he
was unable to turn back to shore. and
he sank in a few moments. The other
boys jumped into the stream in an
effort to save him and WClff. who was
unable to swim, barely escaped a SINH
lar fate. He was rescued by Thorsen.
THAT was Passmore, all over,
sobbed Wolff. "he could not bear to see
anything in pain He never passed

friends with him."

by a Storm.

Much Property Damaged.
PANIC IN MARKET PLACE
Roof of Ball Park GrandStand
Is Lifted
And Dropped Down Upon the
Assembled Farmers.

Grand Rapids, July 13.-Grand
Rapids was hit early today by a tor
nado that injured forty or more per-
sons and did thousands of dollars
worth of damage. The storm entered
the city from the southwest about 4
o'clock. The first place struck was
the city market and the Grand Rapids
Central League baseball park ed-
joining.
The market was crowded with
farmers and their teams, as trading
had just begun. After the storm struck
the roof of the ball park grandstand
was lifted off and scattered all over
the market A panic followed.
Horses were killed and a great many
persons were hurt, some so badly they
had to be sent to the hospital The po-
lice reserves and fire department -yere
called out. The storm then swept
across town, striking the best resi-
dence district.
Storm at Kenosha.
Kenosha, Wis, July 13.-Mrs. E.
Printz, of South Kenosha, was killed
and many people injured in tornado
which passed through the suburbs of
Kenosha early today. The storm was
the most severe known in this section
of the state in many years and LETT n
path of desolation behind it. Houses
were blown down, trees uprooted, barns
collapsed and crops ruined by the force
OF the storm.
Tidal Wave on the Lake.
Racine, Wis, July 13.-A terrific cleo
trio storm in this vicinity today was
featured by a small tidal wave on Lake
Michigan. The water in the river rose
several feet then receded, leaving the
level one foot lower than the normal
stage.
In Racine much damage was done
along the lake front by lightning while
throughout Racine and Kenosha coun-
ties, where the rain amounted to a
cloud burst, railway tracks were
washed out and traffic interrupted.

CAR WITH WINGS.
Makes Sixty-Two Miles an Hour in
Speed Trial.

Paris, July 13.-An automobile called
the Winged Car" designed by Comte
Bertrand de Lesseps and propelled by
a pair of revolving wings somewhat
similar to the propeller of an aero
plane, has successfully made a trip
from this city to Lyons, distance of
800 miles.
The novel machine has the appear
ance of an ordinary motor car except
that its front is shaped like the prov
of a ship and from the extremity of
this PROV extends a shaft on which
the wings are fastened. The latter
are small and strong and revolve in a
cage driven by 40-horse power
motor. There is no other mechanism,
brakes
A trial speed of 81 miles an hour
was made.
curious feature is that the car
makes no dust.

NOT THIS SUMMER.
The Archibald Impeachment Trial Has
Been Postponed.

Washington, July 13,-It was prac-
tically determined today that the
Archibald impeachment case will not be
tried by the senate this summer This
indicates an earlier adjournment Of
congress than seemed possible a few
days ago. The delay is said to be in
accordance with the wishes of Judge
Archibald.
1t was arranged today that the senate
should be notified of the house resoIu-
ton of Impeachment and that the man
ayers should formally appear nexr
week to demand trial. While the house
managers were anxious to have the
case heard at once they met opposition
on both sides of the chamber The hof
weather, the rush of other business and
the approaching political campaign all
combined to favor a postponement of
the trial.

II am ready" he added dramatically
as he took his seat.
The roll was then called on the reso-
luton The ousting of Lorimer had
been fully expected but it was believ-
ed that his strong speech had swayed
several doubtful votes. The taking OF
the vote was preceded by a pathetic
incident. Senator Tillman, taking the
floor just before the calling of the
roll began, asked permission for the
clerk to read a statement he had pre-
pared but which he himself was toe
weak to read. 1t stated his convic-
ton that Senator Lorimer had been
elected without fraud.

TAFT CAMPAIGN PLANS
The President VIII Not Make Any
Long Trips.

Washington, July 13.-President Taft
indicated today that he would not make
any extensive campaign trip this fall,
when he declined an invitation to at
tend the Minnesota state fair in Sep
tember.
While he will not take any long trips
it is believed the president will make
several long speeches setting forth his
view of the issues that confront the
country.
No engagements for such speeches
have been made and probably will not
be made until after the organization
of the Republican national committee is
completed.

The Strength of Taft.

An analysis of the makeup Of the
Chicago convention, published yes
terday by the Associated Press,
gives Theodore Roosevelt All in
structcd uncOntested delegates, as
against but 20l for William II. Taft.
The number necessary to choice Is
30.
ON the face of these figures the
Roosevelt boomer might well claim
that all was over but the shouting.
An analysis, however, will show
how strongly intreanched the Taft
forces are and reveal the great ad-
vantage possessed by the operators
of the party machine.
MIR. Taft has 20l instructed, I'M
contested votes. But the activities
of the Republican National Com.
mittee since that body began to
hear contests last Friday have Civ
en- him Is votes more. This brings
his strength to 20.
or the total number Of contested
votes -2ji--l76 are still unawarded.
Taft has more than three-fOurths Of
the National Committee. The fact
| that the California contest Is to be
taken mp last would indicate that
the Taft men propose tc give the
| California seats To- Roosevelt; but
! il is surely reasonable suppose
tion that Taft will be awarded four
! hfths of the total number of seats
I involved in contests not yet passed
upon. This would give him lll del
egates more, "A total Of 40, while
! Mr.. Ro0seyelt's strength would be
increased by - to I46.
There remains the body Of unin.

I OF these, ninety are from New

/ Taft managers will be to win l4O
delegates out of 1866, supposing that
the thirty-siX votes pledged to La
| Toilette and the ten instructed for
I Cummins are not added to the
strength OF either of the chief con-
/ teStants.
/ This is by no means an impossi-
bic task The policy of the Roosc.
welt managers has been to seek in.
structiOns wherever there was IA
chance for victory. 1t Is probable
that all but relatively small frac.
tion of the uninstructed votes will
go to Taft.
1t Is still anybody's fight. The
/ Taft delegates seated by the com.
mittee's decisions in contest cases
may be counted upon to remain
firm. If the Roosevelt managers
can corrupt the Southern delegates

Republican Steam Roller
History Repeating Itself.

In 1908 Mr.. Taft had .is7 instruct
ed delegates, which was l04 short Oi
the number then required to nomin.
ate--4gl. AT that time the news
came from Chicago, under date of
June ., 1908, that the nominal ion
"hinges absolutely upon the decision
of the members of the national cem-
mittee." The national committee
went to work with IA will, and acted
In exact harmony with the wishes
Of President Roosevelt, who man
aged the whole show by long dis.
lance wire from the White House.
When the committee finished it's la
bcrs 1t appeared that of the 2l9 con-
tests the committee had decided PIG
In favor of Mr.. Rooseveit's, candi.
date and "friendn-Mr. Taft.
The 3S7 Taft delegates increased
through the committees ministra.
tions to BO3, or more than 100 above
the number required to nominate.
There never was u more aggressive
use of what Is called the steam roller
than that. Mr.. Roosevelt at that
time denounced the contesting
Southern delegates as most unde-
sirable citizens; the national COM
mittee, of course, only did its duty
virtue triumphed and patriotism
prevailed.--N. Y. Times.

Tariff Reform the Issue.

There is no hope Of tariff reform
from the Republican party. Upon
that question the Republican party
is hopelessly divided. The cOntroll-
ing element, which enjoys great
power through its ability to finance
campaign funds and thereby to die.
tate the acts OF political committees
and legislators, IL committed to con-
tinuancc OF existing conditions sub
stantially unchanged. a Republi-
can minority in Congress, that rep
resents large but not well organ
lied part of the Republican rank
and file, is impatient with the ex-
actions aud cNtortiOns Of the stand
pat element, but still Is SO welded
to the doctrine and practices of pro-
tectionism that even were 1t to gain
control the people would have no
reason to expect substantial relief.
ON the other hand, we see the Dem
"cratir party, both in and out Of
Congress, united as it has not been
IN many years, upon the platform
Of tariff reform.
1t is evident, therefore, that upon
the issue OF tariff reform the Presi-
Dental campaign of 1872 will he
fought and won. II is proper that
at Democratic gatherings, as well
as In the debates in Congress, those
who are in position to outline the
Democratic party policy and belief
should freely and frankly discuss
this great question.
| write as manufacturer and
business man, l declare with all the
emphasis | can command, that there
is no occasion whatsoever for man
ufacturers, for business men, for
employers or employees, to entertain
the slightest fear that they will be
disadvantageously affected by the
.ceming Democratic revision of the
tariff.
On the contrary, the manutoc-
luTtl, the VI blit ttii-
ployer of labor and the wage-earner
will profit greatly, through the re-
lief of industry from the shackles
which deny American capital and la
Dor It's appropriate access to the
markets OF the world, which: pro-
duces periodical gluts, panics and
,prostrations of business, and In
general Is a hindrance and distur-
'bance to industrial development in
stead of being an aid to American
enterprise and industry.
Tariff taxes on the raw materials
of industry and on the necessaries
Of life are In effect an edict against
the growth and development of Amer
lean trade IN the open markets of
the world. Abolish the handicap of
extortionate taxes on American in.
dustry, and American enterprise and
efficiency will do the rest.
