ANOTHER RECORD
0rvilIe Wright Who NsvIgsies ihe Ar Was Up Nearly an
 B0ur.

Washington, Sept 9.--A new world record in aeroplane flights was established at Fort Myer, Va, early to-day, when Orville Wright circled above the broad parade grounds there 5S times and remain ed in the air 57 minutes and 31 sec onds, officia ltime. His smashing of all previous records carried out his promises of yesterday evening after his two remarkable ascensions when at the maximum height of 60 feet. going 10% miles in all and averag- ing 36 miles an hour he spent II minutes in one flight and eight min utes in the other.
 To-days achievement was accom- plished under ideal weather condi- tions and in the presence Of about 25 spectators aside from the sol diers. The ascension was made at 8:15 o'clock this morning. It was an easy ride in the air, the ma chine was under perfect. control and the aviator traveled at a speed ap- proximating 36 to 3S miles an hour.
 Washington, Sept. 9.-Mr Wright declared that had he known that be was so close to being in the air an hour he would have remained that much longer. He said he came down because his motor slipped once or twice and he thought he had only been in. the air for half an hour. He promptly announced that he would make another attempt later In the day. Except for the slipping or the motor no trouble whatever was experienced in the working of the aeroplane. Everything worked as smoothly as the most perfectly ad. iusted clock. Orville Wright has all along expressed complete confidence in his ability to break all records. He did not even rest content with his performance this morning for imme- diately after alighting he sent for more gasolene and prepared for further flights.

THE LABOR CASES
Judge Gould Bss Appointed ". 5. Smith 10 Take Testimony
 10 the Injunction Affairs.

Washington, Sept 9.-In the case of the contempt proceedings against Samuel Gompers, John Mitchell and Frank Morrison of the American Fed erat!on of Labor, in connection with the Bucks Stove & Range Co to-day, Judge Gould decided to appoint an examiner to take testimony and Will liam H. Smith was designated to per- form that service. Thirty days were given to each side for the purpose of taking testimony.
 The answer of Messrs Gompers, Mitchell and Morrison to the con tempt proceedings was filed with the court this morning.
 In their answers to the petition of the Bucks Stove & Range Co to have Samuel Gompers, John Mitchell and Frank Morrison of the American FeGeration of Labor punished for contempt on the charge of violating the order of Justice Gould enjoining them from continuing the boycott against the stove company by pub fishing the name of that company in the "We-don't-patronize" list which was filed to-day in the supreme court of the District of Columbia, the three defendants named asked that the is- sues be tried before jury and not by Justice Gould alone. Most of the spe- cifications of the petition relate to publications in the American Feder- ationist, the official organ of the Fed eration of which MT Gompers is edi- tor, and to public addresses made by him, and his response is of much greater length than those of Messrs Mitchell and Morrison, both of whom whom profess ignorance as to the majority of uterances quoted. For the most part MT Gompers admits the correctness of the quotations from his speeches, interviews and edito- rials, but he declares that none oi them were intended to be in con tempt of any decree of the court.
 The principal charge in the peti, tion refers to an editorial by MI Gompers. This is declared in the answer to be not contempt but faiI criticism of the conduct of one of the officers of the government. Itsis de clared that there was never any con- spiracy to bring about the publica. tion of the editorial in question.

Excursions on Beautiful Black River.

Kingstree, S. G., April Is.
The gasoline boat, the "Mer-
, cedes" has just returned from a
a trip to Georgetown and will
be ready on all week days to
take pleasure parties on trips
up and down the beautiful Black
river and to pleasant picnic
grounds and fowing artesian
wells. Price is reasonable: only
rs cents for a ride of many miles
on the bosom of one of the low
liest streams.
Parties in the country can
arrange dates to visit our at
tractive little city and others
can come by railroad. Arrange
ments may perhaps be made for
the local train to stop at the
railroad bridge near the picnic
grounds and an artesian well of
fine wafer, or they may get of
at Kingstree depot and short
walk of four blocks will bring
them to the river, where the
boat will take either up or down
stream for the small sum OF Is
cents. Those not pleased with
the trip may have their money
back.
l guarantee my boat to be safe
and strong apd can make a
speed of ten miles an hour.
Come and enjoy yourselves
and take a day OF recreation
and rest. You will wish to come
again.
Lemonade and ice cream cam
be served ON the grounds. Fine
bathing places and shallow
water on white sand banks for
the children to wade in.
Write me that you are COM
