AMERICAN FIRST
BALLOON TO LAND
"UNITED STATES" COMES TO
EARTH NEAR HAMILTON,
ONTARIO.
GOES 700 MILES IN AIR LINE
GERMAN BALLOON HEADED FOR
ONTARIO AND MAY BEAT
AMERICAN.

st. Louis, Oct. 23.-The beginning
of the end of the greatest balloon1ng
race ever held in America, the sec.
ond contest for the international
Aeronauts' cup, was signaled last
night by the landing of the American
balloon, United States, at a point
twelve miles south of Hamilton, Ont
near the shores of Lake Onatrio The
United States" is believed to have
held the lead in the race at the time
of landing and in it's twenty-five
hours of flight from st. Louis had
covered a distance of approximately
700 miles, measured in an air line.
The United States is the present hold
er of the cup and the record for the
race, having established it in the
flight from Paris last year at 4O2
miles.
German Nearest Rival.
The pilot of the balloon is Maj.
Henry B. Hersey of the United States
weather bureau at Washington, who
acted as aid to Lieut. Lahm of the
United States army, who piloted the
balloon in its winning race OF 1906.
Lieut.. Lahm was too i'll to partici-
pate this year.
The nearest rival to the United
States" is believed to be the big
chrome yellow German cruising bal
loon, ''The Pommern," which was last
reported as whirling across Lake
Erie in the teeth of a thirty-five mile
gale. ''The POmmern" passed over
Cleveland during the afternoon and
sent down a message reporting 'all
WE'LL
Others All in the Air
1t is figured that THE Pommern"
was but a little distance behind the
United States during the afternoon,
and if she is able to remain up after
crossing the lake there is a belief
that she may exceed the excellent rec
ord of the Omitted States"
The report of the landing of the
United States" not having been re-
ceived until several hours after the
descent, has led to the conclusion that
some of the other contestants may
have come to earth in places remote
from telegraph facilities. In the abb
sence of definite reports, however, the
other eight balloons are believed. still
to be in the air
With the exception of the United
States" and THE Pommern," all of
the other contestants seem to be scat
tered over the state of Ohio, several
of them nearing 4he West Virginia
border line.

if the Tree FalIs, What of the Ivy?
 We hear a great deal about the mod ern girl developing mannishness, inde- pendence and losing her femininity. A great many people are much alarmed because girls are not trained. as for merly, in womanly gentleness. It is a beautiful figure of speech to describe the feminine character as the ivy which clings to the masculine oak for support and in return covers and beau tifes its hideous knots and scars.
 But if the oak falls what becomes of the ivy?
 There is too much of this ivy clinging and beautifying idea in training girls. They should be taught that 1t is just as necessary to be Independent, to be self supporting, as to be able to cling and beautify. In other words, they ought to be able to stand alone if the tree falls and not go down with it. Success Magazine.

Are Women's Watches Inferior :?

"Yes, madam" said the jeweler showing watches to woman custom. CT, "this is a sixteen point action, the best that is ever put in lady's watch"
 Don't you put just as good works in q )ady's watch as fin a gentleman's?' asked the woman.
 "Why. no. not at all, madam. La dies do not need such q good watch. Most always they wind up their watch once in awhile, and then they let it be for week or two without using it. This is as good as any lady needs
 The woman explained that she was business woman and just as depend ent on trains and boats as a man, but the ieweler remained unmoved in the conviction that sixteen point was all any woman needed.-San Francisco Call.

Great Pigeon Cities In the Swamps.

Each spring in May all the rosy gulls of a wide region somehow agree to re- sort to q particular one of various marshy lakes for the purpose of rear ing their young Just how they decide the important question is not for us hu- mans to know. At any rate, what they do select is a great area of grass, reeds or rushes growing out of the water, and there, out of the abundance of dry stems, each pair builds partly float ing nest, side by side with others. thousands upon thousands of them. These great "cities" of the prairie pi- geon present one of the most dramatic. spectacular sights in the bird life of this continent, comparable in way to the former breeding "roosts" of the real wild pigeon Herbert K.

Most gleaners of the wonderful con- sider the leaning tower of Pisa to be something unique in architecture. This h an error, however, for there are two others in Italy and several in other European cities. The two at Bologna are the most remarkable. One of them 1s S21 feet in height and leans over six and a half feet from the perpendic- ular, and the other is 161 feet high and has "a lean" of over nine feet
 The oldest of these two remarkable structures was built in the year 111O.

Flies,

The astonishing abundance of flies during the latter part of the summer Is accounted for by the estimate made by an eminent entomologist that the progeny of single house fly in the course of one summer will number 2,OS0,32O. If it were not for the in- numerable enemies provided by nature for the destruction of the fly, the whole air would be filled by the end of Au- gust with swarms of flies, which would render life insupportable.

JUDGE DENOUNCES
 MRS. GOULD'S ACTION
MOTION TO VACATE AN ORDER OBTAINED BY HOWARD COULD IN DIVORCE SUIT CONDEMNED BY THE JUDGE.

New York, November 19.-The motion of counsel for Kathrne Clemons Gould to vacate an order obtained by her hus- band, Howard Gould, for the eXamina- tion of Helen Mer, before the trial of Mrs. Gould's suit for a separation from her husband, was denounced by Judge German in the supreme court. Miss Mer, a resident of London, is at present in this city, but intends to return to Eng land before the Gould suit comes to trial.
 The nature of the testimony which Miss Mer is expected to give was dis closed in an affidavit filed by MT. Gould in connection with the order for Miss Mer's examination. In this affidavit MT. Gould said that before his marriage to Miss Clemons she told that she was a person of good moral character and that her relations with William F. Cody CBuf- falo Bib, had been of only a business nature. He is now convinced on informa- = tion and belief, he declares, that Miss Clemons' relations with Cody were mer- etricious and 1t is further alleged that Miss Clemons made a confession to Miss Mer bearing on this point.
