DECK HAND
IS DROWNED
John Day, Colored, Fell Ov-
erboard from the River
Steamer Mary.

The river steamer Mary, new
boat recently put into commission,
arrived here yesterday afternoon and
reported the loss of a member of the
crew On Monday morning at Ii o'clock
at Suckout Bend on the Choctawhat
chez river, as she was proceeding on
her way to this city. The victim was
John Day, 20-year-old negro, who
had been employed on the boat but
short time, shipping from Pensa-
cola. The body was not recovered.
There were several witnesses to the
accident. Day was engaged in chop
ping wood in the stern of the vessel
when his axe struck a Stanchion be
hind him and he was swung off his
footing into the water. The boat was
going at full speed, but was stopped
as soon as possible and returned to
the spot where the man went down.
AS he could not swim it is not believed
that he came to the surface, the cur
rent being very swift at that point.
Several of the negro deck hands on
the local wharVes are acquainted with
Day, who remained here for several
days looking for work. But little is
known of him, beyond the fact that
his home was in Jacksonville, and
that he had run away from his par
entS.

fhese are the days when the young
aeronauts are seeing visions and the
old aeronauts are dreaming dreams.
Human mastery over the air." says
Capt. Ferber, the aerostatic expert OF
the French army, us virtually
achieved. None OF the startling
achievements Of the past, neither
steam, electricity, nor the telephone,
can compare with what the future
now holds in store for us. Not only
will the life of individuals be revolu-
tionized, but governments will be
compelled to devise, in almost every
department, new methods to meet the
changed conditions. This change
will come with amazing suddenness,
and France is taking the precaution
to meet It," In this last sentence,
says the New York Post, Capt. Ferber
doubtless refers in part to the pur-
chase by his government of the fly
ing machine built by the Wright bro
theirs OF Dayton, o., and still credited,
although their demonstration was Sc
cret, with the only sustained flight
ever made by a machine not sus-
tanned by gas bags. But he evidently
has no notion that one inventor or
one country will monopolize the de-
vices for successful flight. AS soon as
one man comes into the open with a
machine with which he can sail about
practically at will, dozen others will
promptly learn the trick. To-day the
world Is waiting to learn the art Of
balancing. 1t may come, as Capt.
Ferber expects, by "a coordinating
central mechanism which will permit
the operator, with an instructive
touch of the helm, to right his ma
chine when it dips to one side or the
other, as the bicyclist to-day main
tains his equilibrium by the instinct
i've inclination of his body" On the
other hand, the mere human hand
and eye may attain that quickness
and dexterity which Lilienthal and
Pitcher lost their lives trying to ac-
navigation through atmospheric cur.
rents and blow holes" and whirl
pools. The everyday airship trip, at
best, is likely to be as hard on the
pilot as run through the Lachine
rapids.
