But in the late fall the plant bears

insignificant In api -ance, and grow

which produce the seeds for the next

Blind Senator a Theaterqoer.

Washington.-One of the most per-
sistent theatergoers in Washington is
Mr.. Gore, the blind senator from Okla
bona. He attends all kinds of the
atrical entertainments. opera, drama,
tragedy and comedy, and If you sat
next to him you would not likely know
he was blind, for he applauds at the
right time and seems to enjoy the
show as much as though he could see
everything going on upon the stage.
Ills wife accompanies him and she is
able to describe the state settings so
that her husband loses little of the
play by his inability to see. The
music and the lines of the play he
follows closely, and misses none of
the points. Minstrels are Senator
Cores favorite form of entertainment.

BY NAVAL VESSEL.

intrepid Aviator Did Not Get Wet,
and Was Calmly Smoking Gig
arctic When Rescued-SIight
Damage to Machine.

Calais.-Herbert Latham, the French
aviator, made daring but unsuccess-
full attempt to cross the English chan
mel in his monoplane. He got away
splendidly under perfect conditions
from the top of the chalk cliff at San
gate and had covered more than half
: the distance at an average height of
SO feet when the motor slowed down
and he was obliged to descend.
The air spaces of the wings, how
ever, kept the machine afloat and the
monoplane, lying like a wounded bird,
] was stretched out on the water
when the French torpedoboat destroy
er Harpon. which had kept abreast
! throughout the journey, came along
side and picked up the aviator.
NJ. Latham was not wet, and still
sat on the saddle, which is located
above the wings and behind the mo-
] tor. He was calmly smoking a Gig
aret He Immediately announced that
he was not discouraged by the failure
i and would try again as soon as the
machine was repaired.
The injuries to the monoplane were
slight, the principal damage being
caused when it was hauled aboard
the torpedoboat destroyer. The mo-
tor is intact

MISUNDERSTANDING more conf
dence in himself than he has exhibit
ed this season, Orville Wright made
the most successful flights of the
year in the Wright aeroplane at Fort
Myer.
The first flight lasted rs minutes
and 18 seconds, during which time the
aviator circled the parade grounds, q
distance of about five-sixths of a
mile, 25h times. The second, which
continued until darkness prevented
Mr. Wright from remaining longer in
the air, was for half an hours dura-
ton and 291a circuits were made.
During both of the trials the ma
chine behaved splendidly and indica-
lions are that the Wrights soon will
have the aeroplane in condition for
the official flights. During the SIS min
utes the flyer was In the air last ev-
ening, 1t covered approximately 81
miles. Wilbur Wright, who carefully
watched every movement of the ma
chine. declared afterward that it had
attained speed of about Al miles an
hour. He said it had reached a height
of $50 feet.

Giuseppe Gerogei. % years old, of A

yignano, who is 81 years old, lived
with his sister at "a Monroe street. 1t
was his and his companions custom to
serenade some young women of their
acquaintance who live at "a and As
Monroe street, every Sunday night.
They were playing two guitars and a
either and singing last night when
Daniani emerged from his home and
asked them to desist. The musicians
scoffed at the young man, and. accord
ing to the story they have told the po-
lice, Daniani returned to the house and
came out a minute later with a re-
volver. He fired. striking Vignano in
the jaw. vignano spat out the bullet
and a tooth 1t had struck, and ran
toward his assailant. The latter turned
and fed. then suddenly stopped.
wheeled about and fired again at Wig

When taken back to the Third Pre-
cinct station house Daniani resolutely
denied that he was the man who fired
the two shots. He declared he had
eve owned a revolver.
Plianclothesman Brex, who was as.
signed to the case found q box %

URGES DIVORCE FOR
MRS. RAYMOND ON
CRUELTY CHARGE

HUSBANDS TEMPER
Threats Sometimes Used, Wom-
an Said, in Asking to Be
Freed from Lawyer.

case filed today former Justice Bennett
Van Syckel, who acted as special mas
ter, recommended that a divorce be
given to Mrs. Elizabeth G.. Raymond
from Assistant Prosecutor Thomas L..
Raymond on the ground of construc-
tive desertion.
The first news of the fling of the
divorce was published exclusively in
the STAR. Later, at a hearing in
Newark, it came to light that Mrs.
Raymond had supplemented her orig
inal charge Of desertion with a charge
of cruelty. In her testimony she said
that her husband had a violent temper
to which he at time gave rein. He
often INDUCED in bad language and
sometimes in threats, according to the
transcript Of the testimony which was
attached to the report of the special
master.
During the hearing of the case Mrs.
Raymond recited man. instances of the
brutal treatment accorded her by her
husband. 1t was alleged that the de-
PENDANT repeatedly struck his wife with
his fist, and that on one occasion he
either accidentally IT with intent
knocked her down stairs.
After repeated attempts to patch up
the family troubles of the Raymonds.
Chief Justice Gummere, Mrs. Ray
R~aynond's father. took his daughter
to his own home. The master was re-
quested by Judge Collins to advise a
decree of divorce in Mrs. Raymond's
favor on the ground of desertion.
