DOUBLES RECORD FOR
FLIGHT IN AEROPLANE
Orville Wright Stays in Air at Fort
Meyer 81 Minutes and 81
Seconds.
HIGH SPEED IS MAINTAINED.
Aviator Has Perfect Control o. His
Machine and Says He Could
Have Continued Flying.

A new world record in aeroplane
flights was established at Fort Myer,
Va, early Wednesday, when Orville
Wright circled above the broad parade
grounds there fifty three times and re-
manned in the air fifty-seven minutes
and thirty-one seconds, official time.
Mr.. Wright's smashing of all pre-
vious records carried out his promises,
after his two remarkable ascents, when,
DIT the maximum height Of sixty feet,
going ten and three-quarter miles IN
all and averaging thirty-six miles an
hour, he spent eleven minutes in one
fight and eight minutes in the other.
The achievement was accomplished
under ideal weather conditions and In
the presence of about twenty-five spec.
tators aside from the soldiers. The
ascent was made at s 10 o'clock In the
morning. 1t was an easy ride in the
air, the machine was under perfect
control and the aviator Travelled at q
speed approximating thirty-six to thir.
ty-eight miles an hour.
Wright Is Highly Pleased.
Mr.. Wright expressed himself as
highly pleased over what had beer
accomplished by his machine, and de
clared that had he known he was Sc
close to being in the air an hour he
would have remained a little longer
He said that he came down because
his motor slipped once or twice, and
that he thought he had been in the air
only half an hour
Except for the slipping of the motor
no trouble was experienced in the
working of the aeroplane. Everything
went as smoothly as the most perfectly
adjusted clock, and the man who eS.
sayed to beat all records in this branch
Of aerOnautics handled his invention
with rs perfect ease as a trained en-.
gineer would handle the throttle Of his
locomotive.
Record Broken Nearly in Two.
By his wonderful fight at Fort
Myer Wednesday morning Orville
Wright almost broke in two the best
official record ever before made by
heavier than-air machine. 1t was only
the previous Sunday that Leon Della.
grange, president Of the Aviation Club
of France, established a new world
record by remaining in the air 20 min
utes and "a seconds. He circled the
field at IsSy, near Paris, fifteen and q
half times and covered fifteen and 8
quarter miles. Monday Delagrange
after installing fuel tank of increased
capacity ON his machine, made flight
of thirty-one minutes, but the record
was rot allowed to stand three min
utes being deducted because the aero
plane touched the ground while max
ing it's first round Of the field.

Form of Ballot Changed.

A new form OF ballot will be used ar
the election in November. One cross at
the top of party ticket will still vote
the entire ticket including candidates
for state, congressional, legislative and
county officers and presidential electors.
This may be done by putting cross in
a circle at the top of the ticket
But the change comes in that the
presidential electors are no longer at the
head of the ticket They are now at the
bottom and in division set off by itself
The candidates for governor head the
ticket and are followed down in order
by the other candidates for state offices,
then the candidates for county offices.
And way down below those come the
names of the candidates for presidential
electors.
The change was made at the last ses
sion of the legislature along with some
other changes One of those changes
was discovered last spring at the cleo
ton when it was found there was no cir
Gle or square at the top of the ticket for
city election. No straight ballots could
be cast by voting at the top of the ticket
1t is claimed that the general election
ballots will make difference as to who
runs ahead in the state. The presiden-
tial electors have always run ahead here,
tofore, but In the case of split tlckts are
now the ones that are quite likely to be
neglected and overlooked and their votes
may not number as many as those for
governor or county Offices.

FalIinq ln Love.


do not doubt that as the world goes
on deeper sense of moral responsible
ity in the matter of marriage will grow
up among us. But it will not take the
false direction of ignoring these our
profoundest and hottest instincts. Mar
rage for money may go, marriage for
rank may go. marriage for position
may go, but marriage for love, be-
lieve and trust, will last forever. Men
In the future will probably feel that a
union with their cousins or near rela-
tons is positively wicked that a union
with those too like them in person or
disposition is at least undesirable; that
a union based upon considerations Of
wealth or any other consideration save
considerations of immediate natural
impulse is base and disgraceful. But
to the end of time they will continue to
feel in spite of doctrinaires that the
voice of nature is better far than the
voice of the lord chancellor or the
royal society and that the instructive
desire for a particular helpmate is q
surer guide for the ultimate happiness
both of the race and Of the individual
than any amount of deliberate consul
tatiOn. tits not the foolish fancies Of
youth that will have to be got rid OF,
but the foolish, wicked and mischie-
yous interference of parents or out
siders.--Grant Allen.

son and the latter to Douglas, but were unsuccessful in their hunt.
 The prisoners wao escaped were all long-term men, three Mexicans and two white men. Ed. McManus was committed for ninety days for jump ing a board bill contracted at the place ot Mrs. N. E. Tedaldi; Robert Sinclair was arrested in Douglas last week charged with jumping board bill at the Hull boarding house in Upper Lowell. and was to have been tried this morning; and the three Mexicans, Victor Palahos, Estanislado Lopez and Manuel Lopez, being in for sixty days for beating up fellow countryman with a piece of gas pipe. McManus and the three Mexicans were to have been taken to Tomb stone on Sunday morning by the dep uty sheriffs.
 At the present time the officers are working on a clew regarding the identity of the man who passed tools to the prisoners, and it is not improb- able that he will soon be in the tolls.
 During the early part of Saturday evening passersby heard some noises coming from the jail, but believed it was nothing unusual, so did not re- port the matter to the officers. It is reported that one person upon making an examination of what was going on at the jail was ordered off by one Of the prisoners.

 A successful jail delivery was per petrated at Lowell on Saturday nigat, at which five prisoners made their es- cape. The men gained their free dom at about 10 o'clock by cutting the bolts from the hinges of the heavy iron door. Four men, two Americans and two Mexicans, who were also in the jail at the time of the delivery, remained in prison. These men were short termers, and would have gained but little by escaping. As soon as the officers were notified of the escape they at once began a thorough search of the hills and valley, but without success.

That the need for larger quarters has been con ceded by the department is evident from the action of U. S. Inspector Hall, who was in Douglas this week look ing over the proposition, and now has the matter we'll in hand. It is likely that on his return visit, which will be within short time, a call for bids will be issued by the department. The question of a change in the location of the postoffice is one which is of especial interest inasmuch as it will have great deal to do with the com plexion of G avenue.

He grabbed his wet clothes and ran towards the mine, where he fell from weakness caused by the great loss of blood. He died about two or three minutes after wards. His path from the Hume to the store house was vividly shown by a trail of blood. Dr. Nj. D. Williams was summoned and pronounced the man dead. An autopsy was ordered by the coroner, which has not yet been held. The inquest has been postponed until tomorrow evening at o'clock. An effort has been made by the local officers to determine the identity of the dead man, but no Mexican in the district has been found who knew him. At the time of his death the man had quite a sum of money on his person.
