ROOSEVELT AIDED EXPERIMENTS

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 30
There is the echo of a sem-tragic chap
ter in ballOOning in the tests to be begun
at Fort Meyer by the government next
week. The universal interest which
these tests has aroused has resulted in
the withdrawal of the veil of secrecy
which has been maintained by the Off
Gals of the Smithsonian institution in
connection with the aeroplane built by
the late Prof. s. Z. Langley.
If the Wright brothers and \. NJ
Herring should not succeed in carrying
oIt their contracts with the government,
1t is not at all unlikely that we viii
bring out the old Langley machine for
the purpose Of conducting experiments, -
said Gen. James Allen, chief signal
officer of the army and aeronautic en-
thusiast today. DIR. Cyrus Adler. acting
secretary of the Smithsonian institution,
which has the custody of the Langley
aeroplane, the "Buzzard," has a differ
ent opinion with regard to using the ma
chine for any further Investigations.
1t is Il relic and should be preserved
as such along with the others produced
by Prof. Langley, the pioneer of me-
chanical fight" were his words.

her fleet of six big fishing scho 2ners got
away for the region of fog and cod. All
are handliners; that is, they fish from
dories sent out from the vessel at anchor
With fairly good luck they should fill
their holds inside of three months and be
back at Bucksport. If they do we'll some
of them will be sent back for a second
trip. Time was when the BuckspOrt
fleet numbered twenty-five or thirty sail,
but in those days the vessels were small
and if they got a fare of 800 quintals
they We're considered doing well: while
1900 quintals is & moderate fare for the
present craft, all comparatively new yes
sells of the same model as the Gloucester
and Boston fishermen. In fact several
of the Bucksport feet formerly hailed
from one or the other Of these ports.
They carry a crew of eighteen fishermen,
besides the skipper and cook. In the
old times the crews were nearly all ma
tives of the town and vicinity, but the
native fishermen are now scattering and
the crews are mostly Prince Edward is
