DIDN'r LAcR FLYING PoWER
Profssst Langley Explains the Accident That
sent His Bird to Water.
(By the Associated Press

Washington, Oct S.-Speaking of yester-
days experiment at Whitewater with his
aerodrome, Professor Langley said today
that he was not an eye witness of the ex-
pertinent, having been detained in Wash
ington by business. but that Mr. Manley s
first impression that there had been de-
fective balancing was corrected by a
minute examination when the clutch,
which held the aerodrome on the launch
ing ways and which should nave released
1T at the instant of the fall. was found
to be injured, Prof. Langley continued:
The machinery was working perfectly
and giving every reason to anticipate a
successful fight, when this accident, due
wholly to the launching ways drew the
aerodrome abruptlEdownward at the mo.
ment of release and cast it into the water.
near the house boat. The statement that
the machine failed for lack of power to
fly was wholly mistaken one
1.-THE engine, the frame and all the mole
important parts were practically unin-
jured. The engine is actually in good
working order. The damage done was
confined to the slighter portions, like the
canvas wings and propellers, and these
can be readily replaced.
The belief of those charged with the
experiments in the ultimate successful
working ow the machine is in no way af-
fected by this accident, which is one OF
the large chapted of accidents that beset
the initial stages of experiments so noVel
as the present ones. 1t is chiefly unfor-
tunate as coming near the end of the
season when out door work of this sort
is possible
whether the experiments will be
continued this year or not has not yet
been determined"

Suit for a Rec siver.
(By the Associated Press.l

Norfolk, Va Oct. S.-Following cor
fession of judgment in the Court of Law
and Chancery for $2,S3616 this afternoon
by the Bay Shore Terminal Company in
favor OF Henry E. Finck, of Baltimore,
suit was entered in the United States
court for the appointment Of a receiver
for the Bay Shore Company.
The plaintiff in the present proceedings
says that the Bay Shore, which in March
1902 gave the Atlantic Trust and Deposit
Company a mortgage for 100000, selling
good many bonds covered by this, and
then placing on deposit as collateral Sc
eurity, bonds to cover an indebtedness of
100000, is now without sufficient money
to complete its lines and that receiver
is necessary. The idea is to have the re-
ceiver complete the road which the plain
tiff says will then be a most valuable
piece of property.

MANAGERS OF THE DIsPgNsARY.
Let Zone but Successful Men Who Favored it
be Chosen.

The people of Raleigh wish the disnen-
sary run as strict temperance institu-
ton by men who will not desire to sell
liquor, but who will desire to dispense as
little of it as possible. Ii was voted for
by temperance men as a measure TO mini
miZe the drink evil.
l was talking about this yesterday to
Il gentleman who did much effective work
to secure the establishment OF the dis
peEsary, and he said:
The interviews in the News and OBJ
server yesterday morning with some OF
the members CT the Board Of Alderllen
gave the dispeIsary advocates much en-.
enlargement that the dspens&Ty would
be placed in the hands of good, honest,
capable men-men who are successful in
the business life CT the city. If such men
are elected by the Board of Aldermen
next month, there will be no such thing
as the failure of the dispensary venture.
But there were two notable statements
in the interviews printed this morning
and they were the ones from the two
aldermen who are in the saloon business,
suggesting that the men elected to the
positions should have some knowledge
of the business Should the suggestion
gain ground, and the Board of Aldermen
elect men with some knowledge of the
business, then we may not expect TO
very much good to come from dispen-
sary run by men who have experience as
retail liquor dealers.
''The men to elect as managers of the
dspensary should be the very best bust
Eess men in Raleigh-men who have &C.
complished something and above reproach
and to make the dispensary a success,
these business men should be taken from
among those who worked so hard to
carry the election for the dispensary. With
such men as the moving spirits in the
management of the dispensary, there cal
be but one result-success.
Had the people of Raleigh desired that
the liquor traffic remain in the hands Of
the result of Monday would have been
different. 1t was to get it out Of those
hands that the handsome majority was
given the dispensary, and the people now
have right to demand that successful
business men be elected to manage the
dispensary, and not be put in tho hands
of men who have been in the liquor bust
ness. The people of Raleigh want sue
cessful business men at the head of the
dispensary who worked for it, and with
them in charge the good citizens have 70
fears as to what the outcome will be
with the advent of the dispensary in this
city,"

Caution !

This is not a gentle word-but when
you think how liable you are not to pur-
chase the only remedy universally
known and remedy that has had the
largest sale of any medicine in the
world since 1868 for the cure and treat
ment of Consumption and Throat and
Lung troubles without losing it's great
popularity all these years, you will be
thankful we called your attention to
Boschee's German Syrup. There are so
many ordinary cough remedies made by
druggists and others that are cheap and
good for light colds perhaps, but for
severe Coughs, Bronchitis, Group and
especially for Consumption, where there
is difficult expectoration and coughing
during the nights and mornings, there
is nothing like German Syrup. The 25
cent size has just been introduced this
year. Regular size rs cents. For sale
by w. E. Pelham & Son.
