A TEST OF BALDWiN's FLYING

Aerial Experiment Association, With
Prof. Alexander G. Bell at the
Head, Expects to Do Things
Ere Long.

Hammondsport, N. Y, May 1S.-A
preliminary trial was made last even
ing of the aerodrome white Wing,
designed by F. w. Baldwin and con,
structed by the Aerial Experiment as.
soclation. of which DR.. Alexander Bell
Ia chairman.
The navigator's seat was occupied
by Lieut.. Thomas Selfridge of the
United States army. The people OF
Hammondsport turned out In large
numbers to witness the experiment.
No attempt was made to rise into
the air. The machine has been pro-
vided with wheels, but the steering
gear was not attached to the wheels
as Il was thought that the aerial rud
der would control the motion of the
machine while on the ground. This
proved to be insufficient for the pur.
pose, for the machine could not be
kept from running off the track to
one side or the other.
II was decided to make a slight
change in the attachment of the front
wheel and provide it with steering
gear so as to enable the operator to
steer the machine on the race track
for a distance long enough to gain
sufficient speed to get into the air
No attempt will be made to fly until
the operators are satisfied that they
have the machine under full control
on the ground.
The Aerial Experiment association
which has it's winter headquarters at
Hammondsport, is an association OF
eXperimenters who are working con.
jointly to promote the progress OF
navigation in America. At present
there are FIVE members, Alexander
Graham Bell, f. w. Baldwin, j. A.
McCurdy Glen n. Curtiss and Thorn.
as Selfridge. Their common object
is the construction of practical
aerdrome or flying machine driven
through the air by it's own motive
power and carrying man.
The association has already built
two aerdromes - No. /, Selfridges
Red Wing" upon plans approved by
Lieut.. Selfrldge, and No. 2, Baldwins
white Wing" upon plans approved
by f. W. Baldwin. The tetrahedral
aerodrome of DR.. Bell will probably
be No. 3 and then will follow No. 4
and No, 5, the aerodromes of Mr.
Curtiss and Mr.. McCurdy.
1t is expected that all these aero
dromes will be built within the pres
ent year. The two that already have
been completed have been wrongly
ascribed at times in the public press
to Dr. Bell, the chairman of the asso
citation. His aerodrome has not YET
been completed.

nine Art.


Making up." as applied to the ap-
pearance, Is by no means as modern
an art as many people imagine.
In the days of Roman supremacy
the women tinted their eyebrows with
black In emulation of "ox eyed Venus"
They painted their faces, sprinkled
themselves with perfume aud even
wore false hair or tinted their own
locks in accordance with the prevail
ing fashion.
The Greek ladies of the same period
employed maids who rubbed out their
mistress wrinkles, decorated" her
face with red and white paint and
darkened her eyebrows. 1t was then
also the fashion to coat the face with
white Of egg and goose grease to pro-
tect 1t from the sun and wind. 1t is
even said that they had a recipe for
turning blue eyes to black.
These fashions all had their origin

THE JUDGE AND THE vlRAG0
An Ancient Joke Of Which There Are
Many Modern Versions.


The following tale was translated
from q very old Chinese book for Col
ller's Weekly:
A certain magistrate upon opening
his court observed one of his llctors
whose face was covered with wounds
and asked him what was the matter.
Replied the lictor. Yesterday evening
was reclining and enjoying the fresh
mir under my grape arbor. which was
suddenly upset by gust OF wind and
fell on me and caused these injuries"
But the judge was skeptical and
said: "That is too thin. 1t Is easy to
see that the marks on your face are
from scratches from nails. II must be
that you have had row with your
wife and got n clawing from her. Is
this not so2'
The lictor crimsoned all over and re-
piled, "Your honor has truly guessed
It."
Then said the judge: "Why is your
wife so fierce as this? Wait till sum
mon her and give her beating and
you your revenge"
While he was yet speaking the Judges
own wife suddenly came out from the
house and fierceIy said. "Who is this
you are going to beatT'
The magistrate hastily announced to
the lctors and ting chat It's: This
