LOST YOUNG CHILD
Yale Students Again Quick to the Aid of the
 Distressed.

The assistance of Yale men to towns people and the general courtliness of the sons of Eli has apparently greatly increased since Alderman Emil Loos of the eighth ward drew up his resolution to have them jailed for unbecoming outbreaks.
 Yesterday morning at 10:30 o'clock a young French lady who later gave her name as Mrs O'Clair came out of Malley's department store and found the go-cart in which she had left her little three-year old child empty. She immediately became excited, called for assistance and said that her baby had been kidnapped. Several Yale men who had come down street to get their morning cup Of chocolate, were at tracted by her cries and offered any aid they could give. She begged them to find her child and. searching parties were immediately organized, one of the students running for a policeman. Be- fore the aid of the officer of the law was invoked, however, two of the stu dents found the little girl playing on the grass by Trinity church with a couple of new found acquaintances.
 Chief Wrinn or his successor will undoubtedly commend the students in his next report to the commissioners.

 tion Free of Debt. $o0 IS ALREADY RAISED Send in Your Contribution and Help Out the Young
 Athletes.
$9o IS ALREADY RAISE

The fund for clearing off the small debt of $15O of the New Haven High School Athletic Association, which, if not liquidated, would have caused the abolishment of all interscholastic ath- letics, Is steadily growing. The fund which was started on Wednesday with BIO, was gratifylngly increased yester- day and now stands at $9O. It is expect ed that the remaining $6O will be raised in short order, It is hoped the grad uates of the high school will not hesi- tate to send in their contributions at once to The Journal and Courier.
 The young athletes of the New Ha- ven high school, who have made such an enviable record during the past few years should be given the encourage ment of knowing they are being back ed by debt free association.

FINANCIAL AID
 FOR OPERATORS Trades Council Votes Spe- cial Assessment for
 Telegraphers'
 Support. TWO STRIKERS GO BACK TO THE KEYS Associated Press Employees Suspended For Not
 Responding to
 Call.

The strike of the union telegraphers locally took a decided turn yesterday when the Trades council voted to sup port the strikers Financially as long as they would remain out on strike, fol- lowing the national order. This action came as a great surprise to the local union and at a moment of great dis couragement for the money in the trea- sury of the New Haven local had been exhausted and two strikers had gone back to work at the Western Union tell egraph office
 The Trades council, in which the tele- graphers' union has been represented for several months took the action last night without the solicitation of the Commercial Photographers union and voted a small assessment on all the unions which the council is composed of, for the support of the telegraphers. The support of the Trades council throughout the state can continue the strike of the operators in New Haven indefinitely.
 Two of the men who went out on strike have returned to work, They are night operators at the Western Union, simon p. Lonergan and Harry c. Gropp. Lonergan was member of the local union and withdrew in order to go back to work. Gropp was member of the union fin Boston and has been in New Haven about four years.
 The members of the union who are employed by the Associated Press and who refused to leave the keys when the strike was ordered, have been sus- pended from the local union. There are four Associated Press operators who belong to the union.
 The members of the local union who are still in good standing hold meetings morning and afternoon daily in their hall at 63 Orange street. Be- fore the support came from the Trades Council there was violent split in the ranks of the order about returning to work, the majority stren- uously insisting on staying out, and carrying the day.

Continued from First Page) struck 1t, colliding with the timbers that supported a huge coal pile in the gas plant yard. The basket scraped a moment, threateningly, but prompt work by the aeronauts In throwing out sandballast caused the balloon to shake itself free from the coal pile undam- aged and shoot straight up several hundred feet. Then 1t swept toward the northeast and was soon lost to view.
 The first report received from the aeronauts was a message dropped near Leesburg, Ohio, and telegraphed by the finder to the Associated Press office in Chicago.
 The message stated that the bal loonists had dropped it at a. m. and that they were then travelling southeast rapidly
 Later the ballonists were seen pass ing over Gallipolis, Ohio, and by the middle of the afternoon they were in West Virginia, near Point Pleasant. There the balloon started up the Ka- nawaha valley, according to a tele- phone message to St Louis. Members of the international balloon contest committee and other aeronauts to- night said that the flight would estab- fish an epoch in balloon sailing.
 The Lahm cup was instituted by the Aero club of America soon after the international races at Paris in 1908, when Frank P. Lahm won the James Gordon Bennett cup for the Aero club of America. So joyful were the members of the club at the victory that the cup was named for the pilot of the balloon United States" and it was put up by the club to be won by the aeronaut who travelled more than 4O2 miles, the distance travelled by the United States in the Paris races, provided the start was made from American soil.
 Lieutenant Lahm has never held the cup, and this was the first time 1t was ever won.
 The balloon Stevens No. 21, in which Alan R. Hawley and Augustus Post, ascended at 6:S0 o'clock last evening, landed to-day sixteen miles from Indi- anapolis and about 225 miles on a straight line from St. Louis The bal loon carried 55,OOo feet of gas, and Hawley and Post made the ascension simply as test flight.
 The bag was filled with gas of an inferior quality as compared with the gas used by Mccoy and Chandler
 Oscar Erbesloeh and Hans Helde- mann, who will pilot the balloon rep Presenting Germany, in the international contest this afternoon made an ascen- sion in the small balloon Psyche Just after they cleared the ground at the Rutger street gas plant the balloon traveled straight for a high brick wall. Quickly they cut away ballast bags cleared the wall and made directly fol @ smokestack. Again, quick use of knives in cutting away more ballast averted a collision with the smoke stack, but the car struck guy wire which snapped. The balloon, frightened of considerable ballast, leaped into space while the spectators cheered Jus tily. After a voyage of two and hall hours, the Psyche descended without Imishap at Red Bud, H., thirty miles southeast of St. Louis.
