Farnau Flies Like a BIRD.

Rising from the ground like a giant
bird and darting through the air at
express train speed. Henry FaTmans
aeroplane, the interesting heavier
sshan-air flying machine he brought
0yer here from France to demonstrate
his ability to fly, made its initial flight
in this country at Brighton Beach,
L. i. 1t rose from an especially pre-
pared runway at the viii of the inven-
tor and after attaining a height of
twenty-five feet few straight ahead on
direct line, finally alightning with ex.
quisite grace when the noted air pilot
diminished the motor power
During the brief space of time in
which the aeroplane was skimming
over the centrefield of the race track
the few hundred spectators. most of
whom were friends. of the inventor or
rival navigators, Watched the flight
with GREATNESS interest The Instant
the trim-looking machine landed cheers
rent the air-cheers far more enthusi-
astic and vociferous than those of a
race track crowd. Farman was sur
rounded and literally Rugged by the
jubiIant aeronauts. Members of the
Aero Club of America, under whose
auspices Farman will conduct his pub
lie flights at Brighton, wanted to carry
the successful inventor off the field on
their shoulders.

W. K. vanderbiIt's stepson Killed.

In one of the most terrible automo-
bile accidents in many years in
France, g. Winthrop Sands, stepson
of w. X. Vanderbilt, was killed just
outside the grounds of Mr. Vanderbilt's
beautiful country seat, the Chateau st.
Louis de Poissy, twenty miles from
Paris.
Mr.. Sands was driving his fifty
horsepower car along at terrible
clip, in a desire to reach the chateau
where Mrs. Sands and her infant
daughter are staying. He had always
been known as a reckless driver, and
as he had been delayed at railroad
crossings, he opened the throttle wide
as he approached the chateau grounds
Almost Immediately tire burst and
the machine crashed into tree, turn
ing turtle and burying Mr. Sands under
the forward part and pinning the
chauffeur, Pickins, to the ground. An
explosion followed, and in moment
the car was in flames. The chauffeur
was not seriously injured.

600 in Fernie, making the total loss
So 600 900. and 5000 persons of that
citys inhabitants are homeless. The
residents have been taken in trains to
places of safety and are now destitute.
Thousands of dollars have been sent

Fernie. with its lumber mills and
railway terminals, is wiped out The
fire is still raging around Hosmer and
Sparwood. but Michel is safe, the wind
having dropped. If a gale springs up
that city will be again in danger soon.
Seventy men in the camps of the Elk
River company persisted.
The exact number of fatalities may
never be known, and there seems no
way in the meantime of procuring an
accurate list. Reports are conflicting.
Reports received at Michel place the
number of dead at Fernie at 102, with
sixty-four others burned in logging
camp at Elk river. An unofficial state
ment said to have come from Fernie
places the official list of dead at Fer
ME and the surrounding camps at 125.
with the property loss at $8,000000.
Saturday night was a frightful one
of excitement, and many heartrending
scenes were witnessed. 1t was spent
in getting many of the women and
children on the trains and starting
them for Cranbrook.
Many narrowing tales were told.
One woman of West Fernie had just
emerged from her home, which was
on fire. She dropped dead of heart
disease. Neighbors buried her in her
garden, and then ran for their lives.
In another part of the city an old wo.
man, an invalid, was carried a short
distance, but the heat became too
great and she psrished.

ALL AIRSH|P
RECORDS BROKEN
Count Zeppelin Completing 500
Mile Journey.
MADE REPAIRS IN RIVER.

German Navigator On Twenty-four-
Hour Flight Above the Valley of the
Rhine-Trouble With the Propeller
Caused Him to Descend to Make
Repairs, After Which the Trip Was
Recommended - Averaged Twenty
nine Miles An Hour-saiIed Over
Cities at Night.
Friedrichshafen, Aug. 5. - Arising
from its floating dock on the dark
green waters of Lake Constance, the
great dirigible airship of Count Yep
pelin was sent away for a twenty-four
hour journey in the air to Mayence and
return. Late Tuesday night the apex
of the triangular flight had been turn
ed and the monster of the air, with
nose pointed southwark, was reported
speeding along toward Friedrichsha-
fen, where it is hoped the journey will
end. The airship averaged twenty
nine miles an hour The flight to May
ence, however, was not an uninter
rupted one for something was wrong
with a propeller while speeding along
above the valley of the Rhine, and
Count Zeppelin was compelled to bring
the airship down to the surface of the
river at Nackenheim, eight miles from
Mayence. where repairs were effected.
The dirigible again was sent on high
and the trip that will prove record
one was recommended.
The ship of the air rose majestically
to height of 400 feet and, crossing
the lake, circled the town of Constance.
then turning, retraced the path of its
fight and, describing a perfect circle,
passed over F'riedrichshafen and then
scared westward over the lake to
Basic, on the Swiss frontier Turning
the vessel slightly toward the north
west, Count Zeppelin steered it over
Mulhausen and then directed its flight
northeastarly to Strassburg. thence
following the valley of the Rhine north
ward to Mayence, distance altogether
of over $50 miles.
Everything was going smoothly
when the trouble to the propeller oc-
Cured and somewhat impeded the pro-
gress of the airship, but when the bal
loon had been brought down Count
Zeppelin found the defect so slight
that he teIephoned his secretary at his
Office in Friedrichshafen:
I'VE will start again and complete
the trip"
His expectations were realized. for
in less than four hours everything had
been made perfect. A detachment of
military engineers kept a curious pub
lie away from the balloon, to which
they had gone out in boats. The people
then gathered on the banks of the
stream and sang patriotic songs and
cheered for Count Zeppelin
The airship rose again from the
rapidly flowing Rhine and scared mo-
mentarily over the spot where her in
jury had been repaired and then turn
ed her bows toward Mayence, where
she passed over the gas-lighted city

Altering Little Girls Skirts

In making garments for girls it is always important to arrange for 1eng' thening the same, says the Philadelphia Bulletin.
 First-One of the usual methods is to have a series of tacks at the hems. This is somewhat of a trimming and later proves convenient by letting out the tacks, one or more, as is required.
 Second-lf the dress or skirt is plain the hem may be let down aud facing put under.
 Third--If No. 2 does not give snf. ficient length, then, instead of facing when letting out the hem, add an ex, tension hem that will give the neces- sary length, being careful to match the design, if there is any in the ma terial. A row of feather-stitching may be made over the joining or a finishing braid may be placed over it.
 Fonrth-Several rows of insertion may be set in near the bottom of the skirt.
 Fifth-For girls little older, cir. eular or pointed yoke may be put in al the top of the skirt.
