RAN A RINGER.
Charge Against Sadd Before Board oi
 Review at New York.

The following account, that has To- cal color, was printed in the New York World, Thursday morning:
 The case that provided the "big noise' at the board of reviews ses- sion at the Murray Hill hotel yester- day, was that of Grisley Sadd of Will limantic, Conn, who was charged with running a ringer" The board charged him with. passing off a horse named Billiken, as colt trained by Frank Edwards of Harrington Conn, by the name of Goldbeater.
 The witness for the board was Charles McFarlane of Willimantic, Conn. He testified on Tuesday that nearly everybody in Willimantic, Conn.,, knew that Sadd was running Billiken as a ringer and also that it was generally known that his broth CT, Chauncey E. McFarlane, was mixed up in it. Charles MeFarlane severely f1ayed both Sadd and his own brother. Chauncey E. McFarlane was on hand, and he denied his brother s statement He declared that his brother Charles didn't know a horse from a jackass" This remark aroused Charles, and he turned loose string of charges until stopped by the pres ident of the board Sadd took the stand and became SC excited that he had to be excused for fear that the extreme heat in the room would lead to for-all be | tween the McFarlane brothers and l Sadd. The case was continued until I.next May.

SAGE TEA DARKENS THE HAIR. Restore Faded And Gray Hair to
 Natural Color.

There is nothing new about the idea uf using Sage for restoring the color of the hair. Our grandmothers kept their hair dark, glossy and abundant by the use of a simple Sage Tea" Whenever their hair fell out or took on a dull, faded or streaked appearance, they made a brew of Sage leaves, and ap- piled it to their hair with wonderful beneficial effect
 Nowadays we don't have to resort to the old-time ttresome method of gathering the herbs and making the taa- This is done by skillful chemists better than we could do it ourselves; and all we have to do is to call for the ready made product Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, containing Sage in the proper strength, with the addition of Sulphur another old-time scalp remedy.

DirigibIe Balloon ExpIodes in
Flight at Atlantic City
AT HEIGHT OF 1000 FEET
Victims Entangled in the Wreekage Lie

Explosion of Bag.

Atlantic City, n. j., July 2 Melvin
Naniman and cEew OF four were killed
when the dirigible balloon, Akron, ex-
ploded at height of thousand feet
half mile off shore over Absseon inlet
to-day. The other victims were Calvin
Vaniman, Melvin's younger brothers
Fred Elmer, Walter Guest and George
Bourtillion.
The explosion of the huge gas bag
was probably caused by its expansion
from the suns rays, and three Thousand
spectators ashore saw the accident. A
mass of flames hid the airship after the
explosion and then the fine disappeared
and the dirigible fell into the water.
The men were held in the car by the
meshwork; the car broke away and a
moment later the smoking gas bag
dropped. One body was later recovered
and the others We're found entangled
in the wreckage, beyond reach for the
present, in eighteen feet of water.
Mrs. Vaniman collapsed in her cottage
and became unconscious. Mrs. Bourtil-
lion and Mrs. Elmer were with Mrs. Van
imam when she recovered consciousness.
Naniman recently expressed confidence
that the Akron would do all claimed
for it, and that he could cross the At
lantie in it. The gas bag was 25s feet
long, and its diameter AZ feet. 1t was
made of a composition of rubber. The
car was about $50 feet long, with a
gasoline tank i'll the bottom. covered with
a platform on which rested the motors.
Vaniman appeared to have complete con.

One theory is that the gasoline exploded
and communicated to the gas in the
bag.
