' nT • 1 w MittfMilgl i The McHenry Pialnflealer Published by F. a SCHREINSR. ALL OF PROMINENCE IN THE REPUBLICAN RANKS jfcHENRY, ILLINOIS. AVIATRIX IS KILLED MISS JULIA CLARKE OF DENVER DASHED TO DEATH IN SPRING­ FIELD, ILL. HER SKULL WAS CRUSHED Was Making Practice Flight at Illinois 8tate Fair Ground* When Biplane Wing 8truck Limb of Tree and Plunged to Earth. Springfield, 111., Jun<> 19.--Miss Julia Clarke of Denver, twenty-eight years old, and one of the three flying li­ censed female aviation pilots, 'was killed at the Illinois state fair grounds Monday when the t|lp of one of the wings of a Curtlss biplane in which she wag making a flight struck the limb of a tree and the machine was daehed to the ground, crashing her skull. Grimly suspicious of the machine •which was alleged to have had an unlucky record, Miss Clarke left a note requesting that if 6he were killed that her body be taken to Denver for cremation at the Riverside crema­ tory. The flight was in practice prelim­ inary to an exhibition to be given here on next fVWdf and Saturday. William Pickens of Chicago, one of the Curtiss-Wright exhibition promot­ ers and managers, has been here with Lansing Callan, a French aviator, and a number of mechanicians, preparing for the exhibition. Because some question had been raised as to the safety of the machine which was finally wrecked, Lansing Callan made the first flight in ft, circling about for five minutes. He descended and pronounced the ma­ chine in good condition. Miss Clarke, •who was in waiting, smilingly took charge of the machine for her flight, made a beautiful start and circled around the fair grounds for several minutes. As she made a very low sweep the few who were witnessing the trial thought Bhe was about to make a landing, but instead she flew close to the race track grand stand and attempted to skim by a row of tall trees. She did not clear the trees properly. The machine struck a far- reaching bough and the airship turned turtle, falling with ^ crash while mak­ ing a speed of forty miles an hour. The dying aviatrix was rushed to a nearby hospital in an automobile, but lived only a few minutes. Her skull had been fractured and her body bad­ ly bruised. Blood gushed from her mouth. She never regained conscious­ ness after the fall. TAFT SAVES GENERAL WOOD a President Vetoes Army Appropriation Bill in Message to Congress--Ob­ jects to Appended Legislation. Washington, June 19.--The presi­ dent vetoed the army appropriation bilL The president declares it repeated­ ly has been pointed out by his prede­ cessors that the practice of attaching legislative riders to appropriation bills Is dangerous. The veto leaves the army withput an appropriation for its maintenance for the next fiscal year, unless con­ gress hurries through a single appro­ priation measure without the legisla­ tive features. It also saves General Wood from being ousted from his of­ fice as chief of staff after March 4, 1913, and prevents reorganization of the army as provided In the bill. In his measure sent to congress with his veto the president criticized the appended legislation in the bill reor­ ganizing the army and causing changes which he held should be done by independent legislation and not included in the bill appropriating for the army.

Chicago, June 19.--More than a •core of men and women, among whom are members of the Georgia Taft delegation to the Republican nar tional convention, were injured here Monday, some of the delegates suffer­ ing internal injuries and broken bones In a head-on collision between a pas­ senger train on the Pennsylvania rail­ road and a train of empty coaches a few yards south of West Harrison street. The locomotives were partly wrecked and windows in several of the coaches were shattered, flying glass being showered on the delegates. All the delegates are colore^ Gale Wipes Out Village.

Angers, France, June 19 --Roland Garros, the French aviator, won the grand prize of aviation Monday. The prize was given by the French Aero club and was worth $10,000. The dis­ tance covered was 683 miles. Chicago, June 19.--With less than 12,000 seats in the Coliseum building, in which the nationel Republican con­ vention was gathered Tuesday, for the accommodation of tho&e who had tick­ ets of admission, and two or three timeB that number eager to find places where they might eee and hear the proceedings, the march on the build­ ing began 'early in the morning, with the result that the big structure was the center of a pushing, shouting, im­ patient throng long before the conven­ tion was called to order. Every seat in the Coliseum was numbered, and a ticket bearing a cor­ responding number was in the posses­ sion of some lucky person. Without a ticket no one was permitted to enter the building. There was a regiment of ushers and assistant sergeants at arms on duty in the building to see that ticket-holders got justice and to maintain order. They were reinforced by 250 police­ men, and another responsibility placed on the combined forces was to pre­ vent smoking in the convedfion hall. This was a police precaution for pub­ lic safety. While the convention assembled, and at intervals in its proceedings, several bands supplied music. Precisely at 10 a. m. the building was thrown open to the public, and from that hour until shortly after noon the visitors and assembled delegates chatted among themselves and lis­ tened to the music. About 12:15 Victor Rosewater of Ne­ braska, chairman of the Republican national committee and said to be the youngest man who ever held this re­ sponsible position, celled the conven­ tion to order. Mr. Rosewater did not make a spcech. A bare announcement of the event, of the purpose of the gathering, with a suggestion that the convention proceed with its work in an orderly manner, 'he of the chairman's address. He then asked for the reading of the call by Secre­ tary William Hay ward of the national committee, and that was followed by a prayer by Rev. J. F. Callaghan of St. Malachy's church on the West side'. Some little time was allowed to elapse before the formal presentation of the gavel to Victor Rosewater by Fred W. Upham in behalf of the Chi­ cago convention committee. Then, according to custom in all conventions of this character, Mr. Rosewater announced that the com­ mittee on arrangements had selected Senator Elihu Root of New York to act as temporary chairman. He es­ sayed to call Senator Root to the chair, but before he had a chanoe actually to do so a supporter of Theo­ dore Roosevelt, from his place on the floor of the hall, proposed the name of Senator William E. Borah of Idaho as a substitute for that of Senator Root, and preparations for a roll call began.

WOULD DRAW LINES CLOSER First Movement Made to Curtail the Power of Southern Republi­ can Delegates. Chicago, June 19.--The first fight in the Republican national convention looking to the reduction of the south­ ern representation In future conven­ tions. and the curtailing of the power wielded by the delegates from states which are not found in the Republican column in the regular elections, was started when C. Tyson Kratz, a dele­ gate from the Eighth Pennsylvania district, drew up for presentation to his state delegation a resolution clip­ ping the winga of the southern contin­ gent and the delegates from the iis.u'rir possessions and territories. The Kratz^ resolution follows: "Each state, territory, the district and insular possessions shall have one member on each committee (national committee on seats, committee on per­ manent resolutions and permanent or­ ganization) and members from the ter­ ritory, district and insular possessions shall be advisors only and shall have no vote. "Members from states having cast le?s than ten thousand Republican votes at the last presidential election shall cast one-half vote. Members from states having cast over 100,000 votes shall have two votes. Members from states having cast over 300.000 votes shall have three votes. "Members of the said committee shall be elected by the several dele­ gations to the national convention, provided that, if under the law of any state, or under any party rule of any state, the member of the national com­ mittee shall be elected at a primary LEADERS m PARTY COUNCILS Republicans of Prominence Who Re­ cently Have Been Occupying the Attention of the Country. Chicago, June 19.--In view of the universal interest in the impending national convention a special interest attaches to the personalities of the prominent figures that loomed up in the political turmoil. - WILLIAM B. M'KINLEY. Presiding over the Taft headquar­ ters was Congressman William B. Mc- Kinley, a quiet, unostentatious, bald- beaded, blue-eyed little man, really boyish in manner. Four years ago Mr. McKinley was at the head of the congressional campaign committee, and it is generally admitted that he has prodigious capacity as a political tactitian, and is a man of cool, calcu­ lating judgment and good organizing ability. JQ8EPH M. DIXON. The chief factotum in the Roosevelt movement, Senator Joseph M. Dixon, was four years ago conducting the speakers' bureau for the party. Sena^ tor Dixon Is a native of North Caro­ lina whose residence in Montana has not eliminated his southern traits. He is smooth shaven and dark, impres­ sive and earnest and, needless to add, widely acquainted and well informed. ORM8BY M'HARG. The widely known contest expert, Ormsby McHarg, is a lawyer, who first bobbed up politically in North Dakota, where he was once a member of the legislature which elected a United States senator, who opened the door of national politics to him. He is a tall, big-eyed, sharp-featured fellow with iron-gray hair and a clear-toned, musical voice, which he raises to a high pitch when he wants to say something forcibly. He had charge of the contests in 1908 on behalf of the Taft people, and astonished the com­ mittee at that time by the masterly manner in whictl he had prepared them, so perfect that the opposition could scarce find a flaw. He was made assistant secretary of commerce and labor when President Taft took office, as an accommodation to Secretary Nagel, it being stipulated that he would hold it but six months, al­ though he was afterward prevailed on to remain a little longer. CHARLES DICK. Former Senator Charles Dick of Ohio is a veteran in the po'itical army, lie is said to have been the confiden­ tial agent sent south and west during the preliminary campaign of 1S96 to string the wires by which the delega­ tions were to be brought in for Will­ iam McKinley. Ex-Senator Dick has piercing eyes and long, fluffy gray hair, combed back from a receding forehea#!. He is imperturbable, with a seraphic smile and a_ straightfor­ ward way in presenting his facts in logical sequence that goes right to the meat of the proposition. ' WILLIAM HAYWARD. One more conspicuous figure that should be mentioned is William Hay- ward, the secretary of the committee, formerly of Nebraska, but now of New York, who has grown up in every way during the last few years. He Is, as everyone in Nebraska knows, a great big, handsome fellow, and he has been making lots of friends by his courte­ ous attention to those who have had business with him in his official capac­ ity. The picture men have been hav­ ing lots of fun with him over the long, heavy black string attached to his eye-glasses, behind which, they say, he hides, and the beautiful gold- handled cane which was given to him four years ago as a souvenir testimo­ nial by his national campaign associ­ ates and which he has carried around the world. Hayward took a hand in the settle­ ment of the Louisiana contest case, having been one of the committee who went down to try to harmonize the factions there. FRANK B. KELLOGG. Frank B. Kellogg is popularly known as the "Trust Buster." Mr. Kellogg is small of stature, and has fine facial features. His carefully- combed gray hair against his pale- blue eyes and fresh complexion alone offsets a distinctly boyish appearance. In demeanor he is seriousness Itself, lapsing frequently into an attitude of thoughtful study. He has a peculiar pose when asking questions, leaning forward and pointing with big gold- rimmed round eye-glasses folded back, which pop open when he makes a more vigorous gesture. FRANCIS HENEY. A great querulist is Francis Heney, San Francisco lawyer, who is of an entirely different type. He is a shrewd- looking, smooth-faced, long-nosed, large-mouthed, bespectacled individu­ al. He gives the impression of wear- Ing a constant 8njirk, which, however, is natural and not artificial. Instead of liquid antiseptics, tablet* and peroxide, for toilet and medicinal uses, many people prefer Paxtine, which is cheaper and better. At drug­ gists, 25o a box or sent postpaid on re­ ceipt of price by The Paxton Toilet Co., Boston, MasB. The love of applause la responsible for many near actors.

Winnipeg, Man., June 19.--President John Corcoran of the Camp Corcoran Construction company and four labor­ ers were drowned in a flood which •wept over the camp west of High River, Alberta, Monday night. SEEK TO SAVE NEWSPAPERS Librarians Consider Means >•.> Prevent Obliteration of Prese«1t-Day Publications. New York, June 19.---The proposi­ tion that newspaper publishers turn out a dozen or more copies of each iBsue on durable paper stock for filing purposes in public libraries and vari­ ous other suggestions have been made to a committee of librarians and rep- | reaentatives of the New York city newspapers, which is trying to devise ' y;,\" Will Dissolve National Packing Co. Washington, June 19--Attorney General Wickersham was advised that the National Packing company would be voluntarily dissolved by the beef packers by August 1. In view of this j*ction suits will be abolished. some method of preventing deteriora­ tion and ultimate obliteration of the printed files of the daily newspapers. Chief Librarian Frank P. Hill of the Brooklyn Public library, has found that many of the newspapers pub­ lished within the last forty years, al­ though well taken care of, have be­ gun to crumble to an alarming ex­ tent. A German chemical preparation which would preserve news print pa­ per wan reported upon, but the ex­ pense was regarded as prohibitive. A Roosevelt Political Party. Pittsburg, Pa., June 19.--Attorneys representing five citizens filed letters patent for the. "Roosevelt party" in common pleas court here. The peti­ tion recites that the signers are resi­ dents of Allegheny county and have adopted the name of "The Roosevelt Party" to designate the party or pol­ icy of themselves and their associates. They state it is their intention to place In nomination a full ticket for all offices to be voted on in Allegheny county in the next election. Comes to Covntry He Loves. Copenhagen, June 19.--Constantin Brun, the Danish minister at London, has been reappointed minister to Washington at his own request. Mr. Brun represented Denmark in the United States for fourteen years. He says he loves America and that it Is the only plaoe for him as * diplomat­ ist. He never felt well In London, to which place he waa transferred against his wishes. He will be glad to return to Washington. The change will be made shortly Prince Can't Qet Ship Line. Berlin, June 19.--The federal coun­ cil has granted a concession for a steamship line from Emden to New York to the Hamburg-American and the North German Lloyd companies jointly, instead of to a rival company controlled by the so-called "Prince's Trust," according to a'report. The combination known aa the "Prince's Trust" is under the direction of Prince Max Egon su Flierstenberg and Prinoe Christian J^raft von Hohen- lohe-Oehringen. Governor Wilson in Sea Girt. Trenton, N. J., June 1ft--Governor WJlron left Trenton for Sea Girt, his country- home, where he will occupy "The Little White House" for the rest of the summer. He will be in Sea Girt during the Democratic na­ tional convention on June 25, but will be in constant touch with the con­ vention hall by a direct wire. The governor has arranged to speud Tues­ days throughout the summer in the state house. Was Determined to See Games. New York, June 19.--Harry Naugh- ton, a Toledo boy, was found a stow­ away in a lifeboat aboard the steam­ ship Finland, shortly after she sailed from this port with the American Olympic team. Col. Robert M. Thompson paid his fare. He was not discovered until the Finland had passed Sandy Hook. The boy said he rode the trucks of the Twentieth | Century Limited frcsn Toledo to New York. " ^ i v Half Fee in Devil-Driving job. Kaston, Pa., June 19.--An echo of the religious meeting at Nazareth about five years ago, when five-year- old Annie Miller was killed by Rob­ ert B. Bachman, who was "driving the devils" out of her, was heard in the Northampton county court. Dr. Aus­ tin Flint, the noted New York special­ ist, filed a suit against I. A Bachman for |500 damages. He alleges that he was to be paid $1,000 for his servloes, but received only $500. i Antiquated Device. The First Burglar (contemplating father's invention)--"Wot abaht the bioomln' burglar alarm?

OF A 8BEATMEBBIINE Doctors Could Not Help TempEetoxt--Regained Health through JLydia E» Pinkham's Compound* Hooper, Nebraska.--"I am very glad to tell how Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has helped me. For five years I suffered from female troubles so I was scarcely able to do my work. I took doc­ tors' medicines and used local treatments but was not helped. I had such awful bearing down pains and my back was so weak I could hardly walk and could not ride. I often had to sit up nights to sleep and my friends thought I could not live long. At my request my husband got me a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg­ etable Compound and I commenced to take it. By the time I had taken the •eventh bottle my health had returned and I began doing my washing and was a well woman. Atone time for three weeks I did all the work for eighteen boarders with no signs of my old trouble return­ ing. Many have taken your medicine after seeing what it did for me. I would not take $1000 and be where I was. You have my permission to use my name if it will aid anyone. "--Mrs. Susie Tem- PLETON, Hooper, Nebraska. ThePinkham record is a proud and peer­ less one. It is a record of constant vic­ tory over the obstinate ills of woman--ills that deal out despair. It is an established fact that Lydia E.
