MORE STARS FOR OLD GLORY
Additions TO BE Made by Omnibus Bill
I'm Behalf of Three Terri
tories for Statehood.

WASHINGTON. May 4.-The principal
feature Of the program in the house this
week will be the bill to place three new
stars in the American flag. The omnibus
bill for the admission of Oklahoma, New
Mexico and Arizona to statehood will be
called up on Tuesday. The friends of the
bill do not desire protracted debate on 1t
and will trysto secure a vote on that day.
There is considerable opposition to the
bill on the republican side OF the house on
the ground that the territories are not yet
fitted for statehood, but the friends OF the
bill entertain no doubt Of it's passage.
The democras in caucus agreed to give 1t
their united support, and at least sixty re-
publican votes are counted on.
Tomorrow is District Of Columbia day.
After the statehood bill Is disposed Of war
claims will be given attention and then the
naval appropriation bill will be taken up.
Three important measures of general leg
islation-the He'll financial bill, terminating
the coinage OF silver dollars; the Ray anti
anarchy bill, and the Shattuck bill. codi-
flying and extending the immigration laws
are to be taken up whenever opportunity
occurs, the rules committee having de-
cided Saturday that these measures should
have early attention. No time is set for
them, but the decision Of the rules COM
mittee will bring them forward whenever
appropriation bills and special orders are
lacking.

SEvERo MAKES FIRST FLIGHT
Brazilian AerOnaut Successfully Nav
iEateS AirshiD La PAix In Spite
of Threatening weather.

PARIS. May 4.-In spite OF the threat
ening weather Senor Augusta Severe, the
Brazilian aeronaut, made a successful hrst
trial with his airship at Vaugirard, Aero
static park. today Senor Severos airship
is called La Paix
The balloon, held by a rope, ascended
forty metres. The motors were then started.
The balloon obeyed the impulse OF its pro-
pellers, steering easily and maintaining
perfect equilibrium.
After maneuvering for a short time
senor Severe safely returned the airship
10 It's shed. The few persons VINO were
present at the park enthusiastically ap-
plauded Senor Severe and the two assist
ants who accompanied him in the ascent.
La Paix is not uplike Santos -Dumont's 3
airships in appearance but IT differs from
them in many details The gas capacity OF
La Paix is nearly four times greater than
than Of Santos Dumont's airship. II has
three main propelleTs and two smaller
ones used for steering and in ascending
and descending The two petroleum motors
OF La Paix are twenty-four and sixteen
horsepower, respectively
senor Severe said he would not make an
other trial until there was perfectly fair
weather, and that he would then attempt
to extend his fight.
