Second Mishap Keeps Ely Down Chicago to New York Flight is De layed by Fog and a Drop Into a Ditch. CHICAGO, Oct. 10. A second accident to. day delayed Eugene Ely, the aviator. In his attempt to fly from Chicago to New York. The wheel broken last evening had been repaired over night, but owing to a dense fog which delayed even the trains, Ely waa unable to leave the ground until 8:23 o'clock, when the mist had cleared away. He arose about seventy-five feet, bat had gone only a short distance when he noticed that his angina waa again missing the spark. ! The ground looked good for a landing, but he discovered when he brought bis biplane to earth that the Jong-' weeds In which he bad alighted concealed a ditch. 'The 'flimsy covering gave way an the-biplane- settled Into the mud and water. It was announced that It would be several hour before this damage could be remedied. , .'. ' , . FOUND THE - RIGHT CREEK Aathor of s Story About "llell-Fei- Sartaln" Qoea to See h Plaev. John Fox, Jr., one wrote a story called ''Hell-fer-Sartaln," which so he says- mad him' famous..' Though there really Is a Heil-rer-Sartaln creek down In the Ken tucky mountains, the writer -of, the. story had not been there until recently, when he set out to repair the omission. "There, was a church en Hell-fr-8ar-taln," writes Mr. Fox In Scrlbner'a, ''and I had heard there was a Sunday school known ufflcU'.!)- cs' ih Hill fer Sirtaln Sunday school, and moreover that a phll- anthroplcal lady had offered to glv thl school a library provided she should be permitted to design tb book, plates. ' More over, I had heard of the preacher of Hell- fer-Sartain, and ha fitted the niche In which Imagination would place hlrn. About him I had beard these words; "'He's a good man an' there ain't a word - agin' him' the speaker ' paused leastwise not for a long time. Bout fifteen year ago he got In a fus with a fat-feller an' he an' a friend o' hln waited for him In the lorrel an shot him, but they didn't kill him. They're good friends now. The preacher paid the feller not to prosecute him an' atter the thing wag over he tot' as how bain' nervous he put a bullet be tween hta teeth when ha saw the fat feller comln', an' he was so blam nervous that he bit the bullet In two.' " 'And he kept on preaching?' I asked. " 'Oh, yes, folks have never held that up agin' hlni.' And he was still preaching on Heil-fer-Sartaln. Now In the story I wrote the creek had gotten Its name from the fighting character of the dwellers thereon. As the teller of the story says to the listening stranger: " 'Jus' turn bp the creek beyond the bend thar an' climb on a stump an' holler about one' that la on mountain method of Issuing a challenge 'an' you'll see how the nam com. Stranger, you'll get hell fer sartaln.' "As I was nearlng the waters of the same I asked a mountaineer leaning on the fence about the name and he grinned: " 'Folks say an ol bear hunter goln' up the creek met another one coming down. "Whar'd you coma from?" he says. "1 com down a devil of a place," t'other feller says. "Well," says the fust man, "you're goln' into hell fer sartaln now." ' "From that point I was to ride up a little creek that trickled past my Infor mant's cabin and on top of the ridge I would strike Devil's Jump branch of Hell-fer-Sartaln. Then I could ride on down to church. It was a wild ride up that little creek. J lost my way, recovered It, struck the head of Devil's Jump branch, followed the rocky path and In less than an hour I emerged at Its mouth between j massive superimposed boulders to see the placid stream I sought gleaming under; more great boulders' below. "I halted in the road and looked back at those massive, moss-grown, rhododendron tufted bouldera that branch anyhow was! well named and I couldn't help thinking what a perilous lean t that point th old boy would have Into his domain. A 1 rode down I waa politely told the nam! of i'u. Oi, by a Ar. a.-.d by' a wrr.in. ! each, without a aril la and each correcting my pronunciation to Hvll-for-Certaln far the present generation of mountaineer Is' losing It dialect fast." ...

Oct.' 10-Each ot the five local sporting - writers In commenting on yesterday's American lesgue base ball game between the Cleveland nnd St. Ixiuls teams, charge today that certain of the local team allowed Lajoie to obtain hits The object of this, It Is charged, waa to enable hlrn to score more hits during the season than were credited to Cobb of ! trolt. ' Lajoie Is credited by the official scorer as being at the bat four times In each gam of the double-header. Each time ho obtained a hit. In the summary he Is also given a aaorlflce hit. The first time he hit a liner and made three bases. The ball went over the center fielder's head. Six other times he bunted down the third baa line and elthni beat Third Baseman Corrlden's throw to first base or else Cor liden did not attempt to throw. Another time Lajoie grounded to Wal lace, who threw wild to first base. Onoe Lajoie bunted to Corrlden. who fielded it. but threw wild to first. This was the play that gave Lajoie tho sacrifice hit. When Lajoie waa at bat Corrlden played far back of third base. He ran up each time Lajoie bunted. Malloy and Nelson were the St. Louts pitchers. In the only other game which Malloy pitched against Cleveland Lajoie got on hit in three times at bat. Nelson never pitched to Lajoie before. President Hedges of the local team re fused to discuss the team's playing. Denial of Charges. "Lajoie outguessed us," said Manager O'Connor. "W figured he did not have the nerve to bunt every time. He beat us at our own game. I will not send any of my players in to play up close to Lajoie when he tries to bunt." In explaining his playing, Lajoie, In a telegram to a newspaper, sent from Cin cinnati, said: "After 1 made my hit, a clean drive to center for three bases, the St. Louis men played deep, expecting me to pound the ball out every time. I fooled them right along. Th pitchers did their best to deceive me, I am certain." Corrlden and Pitchers Malloy and Nelsort could not be found today. CHICAGO. 111., Oct. 10. President B. B. Johnson of the American league announced late today that no more prises will be of fered or permitted while he continues at the head of that base ball organization. : President Johnson stated that he had taken this position as a result of the Lajoie Incident ' He also said that he was making an Investigation .of the allegations made unofficially by SL Louis sporting writers. "Even If the assertions prov Ainfound d," said President Johnson, "th merest suspicion of crookedness works Irreparable Injury to the gam and from how on rio more Individual contest for prizes will be allowed."' v i - ,' ; i ,. Pttehefs Not lan4U-i Several Chicago gporting writers, In dis cussing the Lajeife Ineidewt, deolared they do not. think blame could be attached to the St. Louis pitchers, Malloy. and Nel son. They said, however, that , the case presented the possibility of an understand lng between Lajoie and soma of the fielders of the St. Louis team. His feat Sunday was not a new record in major league circles, but it has not been excelled for many years. The nearest thing to It in recent years was the work of Tycker of the Chicago Nationals, whb, In a double header at New York, made seven hits In succession. DETROIT, Mich., Oct. 10,-Frank J. Navln, president of the Detroit American league base bail club, declared today that th hitting of Lajoie In St. Louis looked suspicious.. "It looked ilk a raw deal," he said, "but I don't know whether or not the league wiii tuke action. T&s league car. throw out games for justifiable reasons. "I think when th average are given out It will be found that Cobb is the leader. At least I hop so." , President Navln also stated that th league will probably take action towards the elimination of prizes and bonuses , for President Navln, "only created dissension President Navln, "only created distention on a team." CINCINNATI. Oct. 10. Auitust Herr mann, chairman of the National Base Ball commission, In discussing the .Lajoie Inci dent tonight, said: "Lajol and Cobb, according to unoffi cial averages, have th race for the leading batsmen In both leagues bet 'teen thein. Which will win I don't know fd the na tional commission cannot decile until it receives the official average I of both league. "1 do want to say one thlriS1, sine the question came up as to the genuineness of the hits made by Lajoie at St- Louis, and that is that no more prizes or bonuses will be permitted under the -Hies of th national commission. We sir. 11 be very careful to eliminate anything If the kind In the future." FROM THE BOOK OF BILDAD Bom Breeay Reflection the Oat. net of Com m o v M a alius.

Our Letter Box Contribution e Timely Subjects Hot Hxceediag Xwo Hundred Words Are lavltd from Our Badr A Protest. NEW YORK, Oct. 8. To the Editor of The Bee: In behalf of Franklin county's citizens, some of whom for five or ten years, others for twenty, thirty and thirty five years, have borne burdens developlmj this county, I nrotent against George K. Hall, democratic candidate for- state treas urer, being charged up to Franklin or Franklin county. Hall came to Franklin lust November, only eleven months ago, and In eleven months more may be gone; he Is hence not enough of a Franklin man to be charged up to us. I speak of this for three reasons: First, the press, naturally, not knowing these facts, have been calling him a Frank lin man. Second, It was Franklin's good name that helped nominate Hall; and, third, years hence, when the democrats of Franklin county want to put up a man on the state ticket, or the Franklin re publicans have a candidate. It will not be thrown up to them that Franklin or Frank lin county had a candidate In 1910 on the state ticket. If Hall were to be charged up to us, then Hall, who has only been In the county a few months, would perhaps roh some long-time worthy citizen of our county of a deserved honor. Hall Is not Franklin's kind of a man, and his views on some of the moral issues of this campaign are not in harmony with the views of three-fourths of the citizens of Franklin, which Is a further reason why he should no be called a FrankU; man. Again, Hail Is alleged to be a general seeker of office. He had barely arrived here before some one, stepping off the train, said, "Isn't that George Hall of Verdon?" and then predicted he would soon be running . for county . treasurer or some other office. In March he talked of running for mayqr of our city, . although he had been In .town but four months. He did, in fact run. for city treasurer, and worked hard for It, but was defeated, two to one, r Hall could nqt, help being nominated,. (n the prinutries for state treasurer,, with two unknown name on the . ballot with him and,, with th goad name of Franklin at tached to his name.-, , . . , T(ier. 1, howevrc scarcely a possibility of his election,, withy the normal republican majority, of Xrom(! JO.O00 to S5.000. -against him. Without doubt, the battle will be fought out on the iu?ad of. the ticket, and It would be .unusual If the offices of auditor, treasurer and "similar offices were much affected by the, contest Therefore, my letter Is not for the pur pose of losing Hall' votes, but is a protest against his being charged up,, now or in the future, to Franklin county or Frank lin I am at present in New York, on mat ters connected with our .Kearney-Beloit railroad, but return to Nebraska In about two weeks.

I see' from, jour paper that the Fire and Police Commissioners are offering fire protection to the , people of Dundee for M0. I don't think the taxpayers of Omaha would be willing to maintain a fir department at their expense In order to protect people that are dodging from paying taxes. 1 don't think that our police commissioner stopped to think that they can lose one pair of horses In one trip to Dundee and they will be but the 1600. If th people of Dundee want fir protection let them Join Omaha and pay taxes, but they can get something for nothing. A TAXPAYER. Jerry Adda Avplanae. ''' SOUTH OMAHA.

Big Camp of Soldiers Disappears from Fort Omaha. SEVENTH AND SIGNALMEN MARCH Infantrymen nnd Fnsilneer fin t Their Pent Inat Inn by Train One Private of Knalnerr Corp Killed r Train. Folding their tents, the visiting army of men representing every arm of the military service, carried out a systematic departure from the city Saturday evening and Sun day. The battalions, companies and squads and the mascots. In regular order found their way to trains that were to transport them In scattered directions to the posts far removed and which they had not seen for many weeks while away at exhibition maneuvering. The officers and men were a tired but a happy lot. Those captains and lieutenants who had a chance to speak for the do parting cavalcade freely declared Omaha had treated them fine, and Omaha was the best town they had ever seen. Company K of the engineer corps was the first detachment to got away, taking its train Saturdn) evening. The Fourth infnntry, the Thirteenth Infantry and the Seventh cavalry followed In close order Saturday night and Sunday morning, the Seventh to march overland to Fort Riley. The Fifth field artillery departed shortly after noon Sunday. The Fourth Infantry regiment left In the afternoon. A de tachment of cooks and baker left in the morning. Finally, starting on a momentou Jour ney, Company I of the sltmal corps left on foot. The signal corps men are to march from Omaha to Fort Leavenworth to take part In special signal work. The Journey Is ISO mile. Of all the visiting military men the Fif teenth cavalry remained behind. The cav alry Is held here for the turning over of their mounts for use In the ninety-mile test rides that are . to take place from Omaha Thursday by officers stationed here. Brigadier General Frederick A. Smith and his staff officers deserted Fort Omaha Sunday morning to resume their business at the local headquarter of the Depart ment of the Missouri. PHIVATH SOLDI Hit DECAPITATED Body of It. O. Carrot!, of the Kngl eers, Found on Track. Either by accident In attempting to board a Missouri Pacific freight train upon which it I supposed ho Intended to beat his way to Fort Leavenworth. Kan., or by committing suicide from some, one of sev eral reasons, R. G. Carrolt, a soldier ot Company K, of the engineer corps, was . killed Saturday night by a train at Fif teenth and Pratt streets.

Tn searching around for thr remnant of the loot taken from the Illinois Central railroad by mean of padded car repair bills In Memphis and Chicago, the com pany' sleuths pounced upon a bank bal ance of 130.000. supposed to be th fag nd of th fortun of Henry C. Ostermann, head and front of the looting combination. Up Ilk a rocket, down Ilk a tlck, epitomizes the career of Ostermann. One day he blazoned on the front pages of the papers from New York to 'Frisco with plc tuies of 120 bills used as cigarette light ers, champagne bottles In silver hooped palls of Ice, and portraits of the spender himself in all the poses or his reckless prodigality, and the next day he couldn't get a stickful of notlc In the eighth col umn of the thirteenth pge of the dally of any self-respecting managing editor In any city of the fifth magnitude on the con tinent. Ostermann Was brooding over Idea and nursing ambitions the day h was wear ing a conductor' cap, and he "made good" with a car coupler. It was an excellent device. The railroads liked It. A company came next In order for the manufacture of the patented coupler. Mr. Ostermann be came the president of the corporat'on. He turned in his uniform and his punch and stood before hi former associates a a man of genius and a leader of Industry. The business prospered greatly. Chicago began to nolle thl new concern, located In the city as It had been only a short time. Larger enterprises began to beckon to Ostermann. Result, a great car repairing Industry at Memphis, Tenn. That concern prospered, too. Had this man the Midas-touch? The railroads gave htm lota of business. The Illinois Central was one of the best cus tomers. And Just here begins to glisten the slime of the trail. There has been a good deal In the papers lately about the methods by which the Memphis company drew large sum from the railroad car poratlon. There were bill for repairs padded, It I ald on the witness stand by the bookkprs, to th extent of 1.000 per cent. Things were decidedly looking up for Ostermann. There were certain offi cials of the road who were "In right," and their pockets. It I undertood, began to bulge. The former conductor had Invented a coupler, but, when the fickle goddess of fortune began to scatter gold In his lap. he was not equipped with any sort of a brake, and his spending pace suddenly be came greatly accelerated. He first displayed his prowess In Walla Walla. Walla Walla took notice because Walla Walla Is not quite so Inured to the spectacle of laving spending as Broadway. Three days he went the dizzy pare thftt western town, and people gasp yet when his name If mentioned. It Is mated upon -'V-nt authority that a party of Walla Walla solid men made choice between see ,i.t, uto Maltle exposition and seeing Oster mann in action, and that they chose the latter. They were Just about to start for the exposition when they heard the great news, and they stayed to se the how right at horn. A (100 bill torn In half and one-half given to the orchestra leader as an earnest that the other half would come If he satisfied demand at pstetmann's little private dance, bellboy scrapping in the hotel lobby for the right to answer the Ostermann call nd get Ska.-Ostermann tip, these i would have been below par as head line occur rences in New York, but then Walla Walla Is not New York - Last November Ostermann blew Into De troit and started In to tnnke that town sit up and take notioe. At the cahiei-'s desk he flashed a 11,000 bill, and gave the clerk a fiver for the trouble of making change, he ordered champagne for the crowd and the crowd grew rapidly at the bars about town, he liked the color of the flame of the twenties with which he lighted his cigars, and lie was In the midst of a very good time, Indeed, when, alas! and alack! Mrs. Ostermann appeared upon the scene and ordered him to go home at once.

The beneficial effects of washes, Bprays, inhalations, etc., are only temporary, and when left off the old condition returns, because the blood is infected with catarrhal matter and impurities. This impure condition of the circulation Irritates and in flames the delicate mucous mem branes and tissues and produces ther well known symptoms of ringing noises in the head and ears, mucus in the throat, headaches, watery eyes, partial deafnes9, sore throat, general impairment of health, etc. This con dition will remain, growing worse as long as the catarrhal matter is al lowed to remain in the blood.' Being a specific blood impurity, there Is only one way to cure Catarrh, and that is to purify the blood. Nothing equals S. S. S. for this purpose. .It attacks the disease its head in, the circu lation and by thoroughly renovating the blood and cleansing it of all impure mattei, makes a perma nent and lasting cure of the dis ease. For forty, years S. S. S. has been recogniad as the best blood purifier, and the thousands of cases of Catarrh it has cure4 is proof that it is the very medicine needed by those who suffer with this trouble.
