SHOULD GET THE PRIZE.
Parisians Strong Supporters of San
tos Dumont. the Aeronaut.

New York Oct. 21.-The question
whether Santos Dumont technically
won the Deutsch prize arouses great
interest in sporting circles, and is edi-
torially discussed today by the leading
Partisan newspapers. With the excep-
ton of the Matin, which supports the
contention of the Marquis de Dion that
Dumont did not accomplish the course
within the timeslimit of thirty minutes,
all the papers. including Figaro. the
Gaulois, the Temps. the Debats and the
Steele, hold that Santos Dumont won
within the time limit prescribed by the
conditions.
This is also the opinion of Daron de
Zuylen. the president of the Automobile
club, who is recognized as an unques-
tionable authority on such matters
says the Tribunes Paris representa-
tive. Popular feeling meanwhile is
running high in favor of Santos Du-
mont. and considerable Indignation is
expressed against the members of the
technical committee, who are accused
of quibbling to debar an enthusiastic
amateur ballOonist, who, although by
no means millionaire. has expended
100000 francs and risked his life twen-
ty-five times to win the Deutsch prize.

code suicides are not entitled to a
funeral with military honors, but this

The old man participated in too many

among officers and enlisted men alike
and was one of the oldest men at the

VISITED CALDER'S PARK.
State Fair Officials Paid q Visit to
New Grounds.

SLstIe ar OmCld1S RalQ q Visit TO
New Grounds.
Governor Wells, President Empey and
number of the directors of the State
Fair association went out to Calder's
park yesterday afternoon and looked
over the ground to see what would be
needed to convert the place into state
fair grounds. None of the gentlemen
would speak for publication after their
return, and nothing more will be given
out in regard to the matter till after
the board of directors has passed upon
it in an official way. This may not be
done for several days yet
Councilman Robertson, chairman of
the finance committee of the city coun-
ell, said yesterday that the council
would throw nothing in the way of the
State Fair association in carrying out
its scheme. The $4,000 that the city
had agreed to pay the association for
its interests in the Exposition grounds
would be paid i'm full on Dec. 1. Mr..
Robertson said the money could be paid
out of the general taxes that would be
in the treasury at that time, and the
treasury could be reimbursed from the
sale of the ground. The city has given
the board of education of the city the
first call on the block If il did not
take it, it would be cut up into resi-
dence lots and sold in that way.

The rapidity with which the police
could get to the scene of action in case
an attempt should be made to rob one
of the banks of the city was demon
strated last night when by a mistake
the burglar alarm was turned in from
the Deseret National bank. In less
than two minutes after the alarm bell
sounded at the station the police patrol
wagon and four officers were at the
bank, ready for action. The hurry call
was an accident, but the police are well
pleased with the facts which it demon
strated.
The alarm came in about $50 o'clock
last night. When the bell sounded in
the station there was a wild stampede
of policemen. headed by Chief Hilton
himself. He and officers Chase, Hem
