He more than repaid those who waited

almost directly against the top Of an

maneuvering got away from 1t all

over the Grove he sailed with thous-

some ten minutes he navgated about
and them unfortunately his propeller
struck the top of a tree and he was

All those that saw the fight were

that It did not come off earlier but the
heavy wind was to blame for that.

democratic channels. The resolutions
adopted were as follows:
BE It resolved by this mass meet
ing Of colored citizens of New Haven,
that in view OF our present situation
we send forth the following declara-
tons
First, we will stand by the black
battalion until they have been rein
stated with honor, without the loss or
pay or time, and we demand that the
Foraker bill be passed.
Further, we pledge ourselves to
stand by the Hon. Joseph Foraker,
that matches and intrepid knight of
the state Of Ohio, who almost alone
fought upon the senatorial arena
with gladiatorlal courage when he
compelled them to make true until
the 10th of next December, which
we think was the best under the cir
cumstances."
The resolutions then censured Sec
rotary Taft for his speech Of Decora-
ton day In which he referred to Gen
eral Grants early career, saying his
utterances were brutal and uncalled
for. They concluded with.
we advise all negro voters, espe-
cialy In the northern states not to
vote for any member of congress who
does not pledge for the full restora-
ton Of the black battalion to the
army Of the United States, and to use
his energies to bring this to pass.
we protest the seating Of the Lily
committee and the nomination of w.
H. Taft or Theodore Roosevelt by the
Chicago convention, demanding the
choice OF some candidate who has not
wronged colored soldiers or condoned

er in the hands of the police that was
their place to act.
One speaker, Mr. Armstrong made
a somewhat sarcastic attack on the po-
lice stating that they should not be
given control at the corner as they
We're not fitted to have It. He made
q reference to the fact that many Of
them were not born in this state and
inferred that therefore they were not
competent to handle the situation in
diligently. To this the chief replied
that there were many men who were
not born in Connecticut who knew
quite a little despite that fact He in
sisted that some one must have the
control.
The general discussion turned to
| some way Of relieving the present con-
gestion at the corner of Church and
Chapel streets particularly and most of
those present as OF the former meet
ings thought that the control by the
police would tend to help In this drec-
ton.
Attorney Charles Robinson as coun-
sci for the auto club thought that au-
tos should be included in the provisions
of the act although he thought from
the reading thereof that they were eX-
empted.
The matter Of a penalty for the vio-
lation of the ordinance and the speed
rates are to be determined by the com.
mittee but they have not yet been ar
ranged. The favorable report on the
ordinance will go to the board Of al
dermen at the special meeting next
Monday night.

Wilbur Wright Fu|f|Is
His Contract With
French Syndicate
From the Scientific American, l7th.

From the Scientific American, 17th.
After winning the $1,000 prize
offered by the Aviation Committee
of the Aero Club of France for the
longest fight up to October l, by
his flight of 49, kilometers go
niles, recorded in last issue, Mr..
Wilbur Wright set out to fulfill
the conditions of his contract with
the French syndicate headed by M.
WELLER, which required him to
make two 5O.kiIometer (31mile)
flights carrying passenger, within
a weeks time.
After spending several days ov-
erhauling and testing his moter,
which had been giving some troub-
lie through loss of lubricating oil,
and also after fitting a pair OF new
propellers which we're larger and
of slightly greater pitch, Mr..
Wright on October 3 again resum-
ed his experiments. After testing
the new propellers in the morning
in three short flights Of 4 minutes
81 seconds, 8 minutes 81 seconds,
and several minutes respectively,
and again in the afternoon in a
longer flight of Is minutes "a Sec
onds, Mr.. Wright took George B.
Dickin, Paris correspondent of
the New York Herald, as a pas
senger on a 3-minute 21-second
flight. His description of the SEN
sations he felt is interesting. In
starting, the sudden rush forward
was much like the sudden drop on
a water tobogga, or roller coaster,
but once the machine was soaring,
he felt perfectly secure, and found
heswift motion through the air
much more pleasurab1e than when
in an automobile, as it was unac-
companied by any shock or jar,
though the noise of the unmuffied
moter beside him was almost deaf
ming. The higher the machine
flew, the slower it seemed to be
travelling; while when it was near
the ground, the sensation was
much like that experienced in an
automobile. There was no shock
in alightlng. The two strongest
impressions received by this pas
senger were the apparently increas-
ed size Of the aeroplane while in
flight and the very great security
and stability in making the turns.
At dusk the same evening (Oc-
tober 81 Mr.. Wright. with Franz
Reihel of the Figaro as passenger,
made record flight Of 80 minutes
81 seconds, during which he trav-
ersed a distance of fully So kilo-
meters CSC miles,. It was shortly
before Z p. M, and dark save for
the moonlight, when the flight ter
minated. In making it Wilbur
Wright fulfilled the first half of his
contract. His previous longest
fight with passenger was IL min
utes and "a seconds. According
to calculations made by Aero Club
officials, the aeroplane in it's morn
ing flight attained a speed of over
"A. kilometers (45.95 miles) an
Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1908-10-22

| hour with the wind and 81 kilo-
meters 1888 miles, an hour
against it, while in the afternoon
the average speed was figured to be
81 kilometers (39.SS miles, an
hour.
On Monday, October 5, Mr..
Wright tested the weight carrying
properties of his aeroplane by max
ing three flights with heavier men
as passenger than he had taken up
before. First he took M. Leon
Bollee, who weighs 239 pounds, on
a 4 minute flight, and afterward
M. Rene Peller, whose weight is
1874 pounds, on a 2A minute and
74-minute flight respectively. No
trouble was experienced in raising
in the air, and the flights were
made with great steadiness.
The next day, October 6, Mr..
Wright made the second longest
flight with passenger, and there
by fulfilled the conditions of his
contract. This time, with Mr..
Arnold Fordyce as passenger, he
remained aloft / hour, minutes
and 26 seconds. The average
height during the flight is given as
about 70 feet, and the distance
covered slightly over 40 miles,
which shows the machine to be
quite capable Of fulfilling the con-
ditions laid down by our own War
Department.
After having successfully fulfill
ed the conditions required Of him
before the purchase of his French
patents for $1OO, 600, Mr.. Wright,
during the next few days, took up
numerous passengers on short
flights of from to 4 minutes du-
ration. On October Z, after first
making a 3-minute second flight
with Mr.. Hart O. Berg, he took
Mrs. Berg on short flight of 2
minutes and 3 seconds duration.
Mrs. Berg was the first woman to
fly in Wright aeroplane, and so
delighted was she with the exper-
fence that she induced Nine. Bolle
to make a flight the next day. On
October Z Mr.. Wright also took up
Michalo Pulo, an 11year old boy,
in one of his flights. Among those
who went with him on this and
the following day were M. Paul
Jamin; M. Soldatenkof, an attache
of the Russian embassy at Rome;
Sergeant Kasnakoff, Messrs. But
Ter, Brewer and Rolls, Major Bad
en- Powell of England and Com
mandant Bouttieaux of the French
Aeronautic Corps. With the lat
ter officer Mr.. Wright attained a
height of about IS feet. Among
the spectators was Queen Mar
gherita of Italy.
So enthnsed have the French
people become over Mr.. Wright
and his performances, that pub
lie subscription for a testimonial
to him has been opened at LIE Mans.

Committee of the Aero Club of
