Shot by Friend.

DULUTH, Mimi. Aug. 11.-William
Halburt, "a 17-year-old boy of West
Duluth, was shot and killed last night
by William Little of the same age.
The two boys were out in the woods
about five miles from town and ex-
pected to spend tine night in a shack,
but found when they got there that it
was burned. They camped on the
ground, but hearing animals during
the night, got up to move another
point and were lost. Still hearing the
noises, they decided to climb trees.
William Little, hearing a noise be-
low which ne took to be a bear, shot
his revolver. 1t went off before he in
tended and before he had aimed. and
Halburt in the other tree got the bull
let and called out that he was shot.
Little heard his body fall from the
tree. The boy was terrified and re-
NAMED in the tree till daylight, when
ne found that Halburt was dead.

athletic character is quite insensible
to the appreciation of the crowd so
far as it's effect on his performance
is concerned. This is a mistaken idea.
The clever performer works better if
he knows he has the sympathy of the
audience. And there is no doubt in
the world that after applause for
the successful accomplishment Of one
feat, the next one is given with re-
newed grace, vim and dexterity The
aerial actor is just as impressionable
and just as liable to suffer from stage
fright as the dramatic player, and there
is nothing like appreciation and ap-
plause to put him at hisease and nerve
him to do his best.

brief that it is almost impossible to
record it, a score Of fleeting, yet con-
nected thoughts rushed through my
mind. Where will I strike? What will
be the result? Will my partner catch
me? Will 1 come in collision with
him? Will one or both of us be in
jured? Will this first attempt to ac-
tually fly through the air be my last?
These and a flood of other thoughts
crowded by brain. 1t is said that
drowning men review their entire
lives in their last fleeing seconds Of
existence After that experience
could believe it.
Beyond a few bruises, neither my
self nor my partner were injured, but
the accident did not serve to allay my
nervousness. The next attempt was
more successful but 1 shall never for
get how busy my thoughts were, nor
what a sigh of relief 1 gave when
realized that would land exactly in
the hands of the catcher. Persistent
practice gradually eliminated the
possibility of a complete failure, but
even today I never take those aerial
flights without mentally calculating
(while in the air. just where I shall
land and the possibility of accident or
injury.
Of course, a great deal of the sue
cess of the modern flying act de-
ponds upon the catcher. An instant's
relaxation of the slightest indistinct
vision on his part would result in in
jury to both. In old time aerial acts
it was common for the performer MAX
ing the flights to clasp the arms Of
the catcher and slide down until their
hands came in contact. In the up-to-
date aerial acts presented by the I'm
peria1 Viennese troupe with the Bar
mum & Bailey show in which Tode
Siegrist performs the difficult role of
principal catcher, We land directly in
each others hands. 1t can readily be
seen that this is the more difficult
method, because there is absolutely no
chance for recovery. There is no room
to slide. Either we catch and hold or
don't, and that is all there is to it. In
this big act which utilizes a dozen
aerialists, there are times when three
Of us are actually flying through the
air at one time, and singular as it
may seem, always know just what
the others are doing, and whether or
not they will land safely and success

elusive mental gift, either, for the

Viennese Aerial Artists.

AS nature didn't take the trouble to
furnish men with wings, no one can
say positively how it feels to soar at
will through the air. The modern
aerial act, with it's widely separated
trapeze bars and it's tremendous, un-
supported flights through space, comes
about as near flying as anything that
humanity has so far accomplished.
certain degree of confidence. for after
all, he is lifted into and through the
air by artificial means. The aerialist,
however, makes his flight at liberty.
rom the time ne leaves one trapeze
until he clutches the other from 20
to 40 feet away, or is caught by the
outstretched hands of one Of his as
ociates, he is as independent as a
proiectile. He is nevertheless more
than human cannon ball. He has
learned by persistent practice and
experience just how much propulsion
through the intervening space; but ne
must know at all times the exact mo-
lent to leave the initial trapeze. This
means that his mind must always be
on the alert; that his eyes must be
trained to detect the propitious mo-
ment for Highland that there can
never be a single instant during his
erial passage when he is not COM
plete master of himself. Nothing may
e left to blind chance.
| have been asked many times
whether a man, flying at such tremen-
o speed through the air, and re-
naming unsupported for so brief
time, really knows what he is doing.
ny answer is in the affirmative. If
This was not true, the accomplishment
of the most difficult and sensational
part of the act would be a mere lot
terry. 1t would be foolhardy and
dangerous thing for a performer to
hurl himself through the air, trusting
20 blind luck to reach the opposite
eapeze or to land safely in the arms
of the catcher. He must see the other
trapeze; he must follow every move
ment of those outstretched hands;
and he must know the exact moment
for exerting all of his powers in land
ng at the opposite goal.
All this means intense concentra-
ton. The mind must be keenly alert
every second. Empnatica1ly the per-
former must know what he is doing.
And yet it is curious how many fleet
ing thoughts will obtrude themselves
upon the mind under such conditions.
L recall my earlier attempts to per-
form long aerial flights. AS a boy

man ball. and tossed across the arena
from one artist to another, but in this
performance my movements were en-
tirely controlled by others. could
have closed by eyes-and probably Oft
en- did-and the opposite performer
would have caught me just the same.
When, however, I attempted the aer-
ial flight alone, and had to cooperate
with the catcher the conditions were
entirely changer. My first attempt
narrowly escaped being disastrous.
Being nervous. I attained too great
"omentum. and instead of landing in
the hands of the catcher, who was
hanging on the opposite trapeze mead
own, I came in violent contact with
his body. AS a result both of us
'ropped heading into the net.
Now there is a curious psycnolo-
lcal fact. The instant left my trap

From tho revelations recently made
regarding the Moroccan incident, Ger
