The sight From the Union Lines.

Nearly the whole Union army could
see the imposing splendor of Pickett's
advance as IL looking down upon pa

First and Eleventh Corps on Cemetery
Hill, the Second and Third Corps on the
Ridge, the Fifth Corps on Little Round
Top and the Devils Den, the weary
Sixth Corps lying back in reserve, all
had il in full view across the level, open
fields. Only the Twelfth Corps and parts
of Others. far around TO the right on
CUPS Hill, or hidden by intervening
timber, were out of sight of the Won
derful spectacle. AS the portentous ar
ray burst thru the vail of trees behind
which it had formed and presented it,
self in all its stupendous power, gasp
of astonishment and soldierly admira-
ton ran thru the ranks. 1t seemed as
If the whole world were out there, mar
shaled and panoplied for war.
Then the Union artillery burst forth
in angry resentment of this gigantic
offense against the flag. The deep-voiced
Napoleons along the front roared bull
like as they sent their shrapnel hurtling
into that weIl-ordered array. The long
range rifles on Cemetery Ridge and Lit
tie Round Top, with ear-splitting
crashes, crossed their fire upon the de-
voted column. Great gaps were torn in
the ranks, but at once closed up by the
Rell-disciplined bartalions. Officers rid

SENSATION CAUSED.
Coroner Finds Body in Fire Not That
Of Mrs. Guinness.

Laporte, Ind, May 9-The under
taker who prepared the fragments of
the body of Andrew Helgelein for bur-
hal, claims that he found a handful
OF yellow hair in one hand indicating
that the murdered man had made a
struggle for his life
Harry W. Richter, dealer in
building materials. says that Mrs
Guinness purchased quick lime sever
.al times during the past year, and also
gives evidence that she purchased a
Humber of gunnysacks.
The coroner today completed his
investigation of the burning of the
Guinness home and finds that the body
in the morgue is not that of Mrs Gun
ness. The finding has caused a sensa-
ton.

Word has come from the Chicago Of
ticials that they have information that
Mrs. Guinness is alive and also that an
examination of the premises she form

disclose many additional murders.
The discovery of a blood-covered ak
and trunk containing important let
ters that will shed light on the mys-
sery of the Guinness murders followed
the eXhumation of the tenth body
from the lime-filled murder farm that
now occupies the shocked attention of
the nation.

in the trunk were letters written to

Many other letters were found,

Probable That City Council
viii Pass Ordinance for the
Proper inspection of Local
Buildings.
OLD CITY LAW Is NOW
OF NO USE TO THE CITY.
Its Provisions Do Not Cover
Present Day Conditions
Not Probable That Building
Inspector Will Be Named.

Next Wednesday evening the ordln-
anCe committee of council will hold
meeting for the purpose of tormulat-
ing an ordinance providing for the
proper inspection OF buildings regard
ed as unsafe. 1t is expected that the
new ordinance will give the board Of
public works authority to condemn un-
safe buildings. The ordinance will
not create 4 new public office-that
of building inspector. because mem
bers of council are of the opinion that
the city's expenses are already too
high 1t is probable that the fire chief
will be named as building Inspector
The old building inspection ordin-
anCe is a very weak one. 1t delegates
to the board of public Improvements -
and the city council the authority TO
condemn unsafe buildings. Since the
enactment of the towns and cities
code the board of public improve
ments" has been eliminated. The old
ordinance also fails to cloth the prop
er officials with complete authority in
this resneCt.
The new ordinance will probably be
drawn up, in compliance with the acts
Of 1905 so that the fire chief shall
be required to inspect all buildings
If he finds any which he regards as
unsafe for the reason that they are
improperly constructed and in danger
of COllapsing or because they are dan
serOus for fire reasons he shall report
his findings to the board of public
works. 1t will then be up to the
board to serve notice on the owners
of the condemned buildings to immed-
lately put them in proper repair. un-
der the supervision of the fire chief,
or TO tear them down.
There are many ancient piles in
this city which will be effected by this
new ordinance. should it he enacted
by council. and its enforce ment will
be a great benefit to the citizens of
mis- city. 1t will not only lessen the
dangers they are constantly exposed
to but it will also serve to beautify
the city.
There appears to be no chance of
the ordinance being defeated as coun-
Gil has been thoroughly aroused by the
colonial fire. the Fl Wayne holocaust
and the burning of the COllinwood
school building.

Wright Brothers Seem to Have
Mastered the Question of
Aerial Flight as They Make
Successful Trip.
THEY SAILED FAR OUT
OVER THE OCEAN,.
Eight Miles Were Travelled and
Young Men Could Have
Gone Further Had They
Cared-Another Flight Soon

II has remained for two former
Wayne county young men to come the
nearest to the solution of the problem
of aerial flight by other means than a
balloon. Orville and Wilbur Wright.
who have been acquiring fame in re
cent years as nayigators of the atmos-
phere. made a flight in their aeroplane
near ManteO \. G. yesterday, that
proved superior to all previous at
tempts. Their machine was operated
with as much ease and grace as a sea
gull sails over the water in search of
fish for dinner, The flight was eight
miles out TO sea and return TO the place
of the Wright Brothers rendezvous in
kill-Deyil Hill Nags Head. North Car
olina. The brothers will endeavor to
make their next flight from Nag's
Head to Cape Henry. a distance of ~
miles
Not only did the aeroplane make a
successful flight over the sea. but all
up and down Nag's head. which is
nothing more than an island for a dis
tance of about - miles. The machine
sailed with perfect ease. at all times
under perfect control of both the
Wright brothers. who were in the ma
chine. The machine was at least 5000
feet in the air at one time and II was
apparent from the maneuvers that the
two inventors were particularly inter
ested in proving the aerOplane capa-
bic of making sharp and decisive turns
in all directions under all conditions
For some time the machine was sail
ing about almost in a circle: then it
would glide away on a straight course
and make a sharp turn back to the di-
rectiOn from which it started
Eight Miles Over the Sea.
It is estimated that the machine
was eight miles away on the sea at its
greatest distance. and could have gone
farther. perhaps had the inventors
cared TO make the trip.
The brothers will endeavOr either to-
day or Sunday TO sail in their aero
plane from Nag's Head to Cape Henry
distance OF about % miles.
While the two inventors are averse
to discussing their invention in any
manner. they are confident that they
have solved aerial navigation. and are
anxious TO prove it 10 the United
States government. France is said
TO have made them an offer of 2J0.oOp
for their invention. but they are not
eager to sell TO any foreign country.
We are confident Of success" said
Orville Wright. We believe We have
solved aerial navigation. and are going
10 prove it. Our past experiments
have been all that We could have de-
sired, and anything We attempt in the
future will speak for itself Our aero
plane will sail under any weather con-
ditions. The direction or velocity Of
the wind will not materially affect its
progress.
