carry Georgia for Taft has come to
light. The fact is made public that
a Georgia negress is housekeeper for

part about the story is that it was
not the Atlanta Journal that brought
it to the front.

ASCENT IN STRONG WIND.

BaldzCin Di1igible at st. Joe.

st. Joseph. Mo. Sept. 1S.-Tn the face of stiff
aerial trip dangerous Lieutenant B.. D. Foulos
and Sergeant Edward Ward, of the aeronautc
corps took the Baldwin dirigible balloon out for
its first trial trip in St. Joseph about o'clock
this evening Rising to height Of 800 feet they
circled about the military tournament grounds for
fifteen minutes before alighting.
Once in the air, strong wind. blowing about
fifteen miles hour. struck the balloon and
turned it's head from the southerly which
1t had been set. Sergeant Ward energetically
worked the steering wheel ard guided the balloon
in a circle. The wind made accurate steering
almost impossible, and. while the balloon answered
the helm readily when going with the wind. 1t
swayed and plunged when facing the breeze.
In descending accident was narrowly averted
Sergeant Ward threw out coil of rope to be seized
from the ground. Instead of reaching the ground
It became tangled and dangied twenty-five feet
from earth With his hand off the steering appara-
tus the big bag rocked dangerously, and the crowd
which witnesses the fight feared another tragedy
was imminent Sergeant Ward reganed the con-
troller however and a soldier managed to grab
the rope as the balloon dipped. 1t was speedily
brought to the ground
The wind was blowing strong" said Lieutenant
Foulois. Trying to fly in its face was rather
dangerous undertaking.
Another trial trip is planned for tomorrow. II is
probable that Sergeant Ward will take the place
next week of Lieutenant Seifrdge. who was to
have assisted Lieutenant F0uois and who was
killed in the wreck of the Wright aeroplane at Fort

lief expressed among those who were watching the

Wilbur Wright. the brother of Oryille, WAS

telegram was sent this morning to Wilbur Wright

close friend of the Wrights who represents the
foreign interests OF the Wright brothers: Wilbur
Wright lie Mans France OTvile in good shape
this morning.
The report of the condition of Mr.. Wright this
morning had been eagerly looked forward to, for
it was felt that any internal injuries that might
have been sustained and not shown at the diagnosis
made just after he taken to the hospital would
be manifested by morning, and the fact that no
reaction has set is taken to mean that it is now
only a question of time when Wright Will be able
10 leave the hospital
Mr. Flint. who made inquiries at the hospital as
early as o'clock this morning, said later that he
believed from the doctors reports that Wright
would be out again within perhaps six weeks.

| PLANS FOR CONGRESS-
International Meeting ON TubercU-
Iosis an Washington Nert Week.

washington, Sept. 1s.-Although it is expected
that there will be at least ten thousand persons
in attendance upon the sessions of the fnterna-
tional congress on tuberculosis, which convenes
here next week. the majority of whom will be
from this country every effort will be made TO
preserve the international character of the con-
vention. At past congresses the criticism has
been made that the delegates from the country
in which the congress was held received prefer
the visiting delegates when it came
to question OF speaking. Particular pains will
be taken to prevent any such criticism of the
coming congress DR.. John S. Fulton, secretary
general of the congress, had this to say to-day
relative to the matter:
at is a common criticism of international con-
crosses that when in actual operation they lose
their international character by the force
of numbers supplied by the country in which the
congress happens to meet. At international
congress in France Germany strangers having
urgent but futile desire to speak apt to
complain that they crowded by French
Germans. Possibly some such criticism
will be heard at after the American Interna-
tional Congress on tuberculosis. but precautions
are taken to give the visitors preference at the
Washington meeting
1.-The programme is strongly representative Of the
participating nations There speakers from
more than twenty countries, and there will be
four hundred or five hundred congresssts speaking
other languages than English 1t is very good
rule that the visitors from other countries like
~ 10 Drlng more important views than an eGuai
number OF congressists living in the United States
THE United States will furnish n great majority
of the congresssts, and perhaps it will be difficult
for us to maintain the modest bearing of pupils in
this great school. leaving the teaching functions as
much possible those who bringing the
experience and wisdom OF other lands. This is the
proper relation of the visited nation toward the
visiting nation. but it is difficult TO maintain. The
presidents of the sections, all of them Americans,
will bear this constantly in mind and will endeavor
to preserve the international character of the
ceedings.'
