Forest Bureau Weakened.

The forest service is much stirred
over an order of Acting Secretary of
the Interior Pierce which arbitrarily
takes from the forest bureau super
vision over timber lands on the Indian

FRENCH AVIATOR'S TRIP TOOK
TWENTY-THREE MINUTES.
Airship Makes the 20 Miles Successfully
Watched BY Great Crowds-M.
Bleriot Wins Fame BY Being First
Person to Make Journey-Mile a
Minute-He Wins $4,000 Prize.

Dover, July 26.-Louis Bleriot, the
French aviator, accomplished the re-
markable feat of flying across the En-
glish channel in % minutes. The dis
lance from his starting point near
Calais to Dover is about % miles, and
he therefore travelled at the rate of
nearly mile minute.
By crossing the channel M. Bleriot
wins the prize of 500 pounds offered
by the London Daily Mail. The fight
may be regarded as the most successful
and daring ever taken by an aviator.
An immense throng had gathered up
on receipt of the news that Bleriot had
started his fight, and as the little spot
of white, like a bird, appeared over the
channel, mighty cheer went up.
Great Speed.
Bleriot was flying at height of about
300 feet when he was sighted from the
English coast and was speeding through
the air at terrific speed. AS he near
ed the coast the monoplane seemed to
sink and at one time it was below the
level of the high cliffs. Bleriot evil
IDENTIFY manipulated his machine at this
point and it rose again until it was
high in the air.
Down in the channel the fleet of
motor boats and the flotilla of French
torpedo boats, headed by the destroyer
Harpoon, that had followed the dar-
were watching anxiously lest the TRIP
AS the monoplan shot over the edge OF
the white cliffs, shrieking sirens from
the feet below joined with the shouts
Of the throngs on the shore.
Bleriot was high in the air when he
impatient to descend on English sol
after his periolous trip.
Shoots Earthward
From a height of about 300 feet
above the channel, or about 100 feet
above the cliffs, he shot suddenly down
ward, the monoplane swooping almos
in straight line for the ground. Tht
machine landed heavily, breaking some
of the planes and throwing Bleriot from
the seat. He was badly shaken up, bu
was not seriously hurt. The aeroplan'
will need considerable repairs before
it can be used again.
AS soon as Bleriot was extricatet
from his damaged machine he was hur
ried to Dover and placed in a hote
here. Doctors were summoned to exam
inc the aeronaut, while cheering crow
filed the streets about the hotel. TIL
surgeons announced that Bleriot is no
seriously injured and that he will b
able to be about in a day or so.

PRIZE FOOD
PaIatabIe, Economical, NourIshlng.

A Nebr. woman has outlined the
prize food in few words, and that
from personal experience. She writes:
AFTER our long experience with
Grape-Nuts, 1 cannot say enough in its
favor. We have used this food almost
continually for seven years.
I'VE sometimes tried other adver-
tised breakfast foods but we invariably
returned to Grape-Nuts as the most pal
atable, economical and nourishing
OF all.
when I quit tea and coffee and be-
gan to use Postum and Grape-Nuts I
was a nervous wreck. I was SO ir-
ritable I could not sleep nights, had
no interest In life.
after using Grape-Nuts short time
I began to improve and all these all
ments have disappeared and now am
a we'll woman. My two children have
been almost raised on Grape-Nuts,
which they eat three times a day.
They are pictures of health and
have never had the least symptom of
stomach trouble, even through the
most severe siege of whooping cough
they could retain Grape-Nuts when all
else failed.
"Grape-Nuts food has saved doctor
bills, and has been, therefore, most
economical food for u.s.
