lantic in a dirigible airship, was begun this morning at an early
hour, when the balloon "America " left the hanger and disap­

Wireless Operator Miller, just before noon, had again spoken

Wellman and crew hud decided to make the daring attempt to
reach Europe.
"We ure headed duo northcast, but have not taken observa­
tions and will not know our exact location until noon,'* it read.
The America's wireless has a radius of about one hundred
miles.
What little wind was blowing when the America started

Springfield, Mo., Oct. 15.—Stanley Ketchel, the champion
middleweight pugilist of the world, was shot and probably fa­
tally wounded this morning by an employe on the farm of R. R.
Dickerson, five miles north of Conway, Mo., where Katchel has
been since Tuesday for recreation. The employe used a target
rifle.
The cause of the shooting is not learned.
A bullet went through Ketchel’s lungs, and the man who shot
him escaped, with bloodhounds on his trail.
A special train has been sent to bring Ketchell to the hospi­
tal here.

Ketchel’s real name is Stanislaus
Keicel. He was born at Grand Rap-
ids 23 years ago, and about four
years ago began fighting minor bouts
In Montana, when he found himself
to be ’’good,” and went to San Fran­
cisco and whipped Joe Thomas, who
was a great favorite, Ketchel thenI
whipped one after another of the'
noted pugilists, and secured the ti-
tie of middleweight .champion from
Billy Papke. Later Papke whipped ,
Ketchel, but again lost his title to
the Grand Rapids wonder. A little(
over a year ago he went out of his
class to fight Jack Johnson, heavy­
weight champion pugilist of the
world, but was beaten In a rather
easy fashion in twelve rounds. Since
then Ketchel has been inactive in the
ring.
