. Scouting by Aeroplancs.
(from Cleveland Leader.

The failure Of Herbert Latham s
first attempt to fly across the English
| Channel in his aerOplane signifies
little. The accident which stopped
him argued nothing against the sue
cess or the next trip. His miShap
showed that dip into the sea caus-
ed no serious damage to his flying
machine and involved nothing worse
than a wetting for the aeronaut.
There Is every reason to believe that
Latham will soon cross the strip of
salt water which separates England
from France, and that others will do
the same thing with flying machines
of various patterns.
But every attempt at a real jour
ney, in al aeroplane-starting from
one place and landing in another
miles aWay--shows, once more. how
difficult 1t will be to do effective
scouting, in war, with any flying ma
chine yet devised, or anything SINH
lar to the best of the aeroplanes.
They -have~to- wait-feF- stiH-days,o
days with little wind, and in war
events do not hinge upon calm wealth
Ell. 1t 1s necessary to have smooth
and open place for landing, and that
Is not to be counted upon in military
operations. The flying machines are
noisy and could do nothing In secret
or in silence. Unlike an airship of
the engine-driven and rudder-steered
balloon type, they can't shut off their
power and drift noiselessly over an
enemy's camp or Notifications.
All that has been accomplished, 30
far, In the navigation of the air indi-
Gates that the advantage is heavily
on the side of the gas-bag airship. II

RECALL JONH MULDOON
ONCE OF CHARLESTON?
A TRAGIC WAR STORY

DO any Of the older inhabitants of
Charleston remember John Muldoon,
who lived here about the time Of the
Civil war? Ills son, James Muldoon,
has just learned his real name. Lis
ten to this dispatch from st. Johns,
Mich:
FOR "A years Clinton county
resident has been living under a
name which didn't belong to him,
and 1t was only recently that he
learned what his name was The
name which he bas used 80 long and
which he now discards for the real
one OF James Muldoon fs Henry
Preutz. His story is a strange one,
and 1T has taken nearly half CEN
fury to secure the facts.
"At the breaking out of the Civil
war, John Muldoon, his wife and
their three sons and one daughter
the latter all small children, were
living in Charleston, w. Va. The
father enlisted In the Union army
and went South. In few months
word reached the mother that hel
husband had been killed and she
moved to Detroit, In the hope thai
she could find work to support the
children. Soon after reaching there
however, she sickened and died, ant
the children were scattered through
out the State, being taken by differ
cnt families. James, then four years
old, was placed in the home Of Mr.
and Mrs. Andrew p. Preutz, who la
ter moved to this county.

The Business Outlook.
From baltimore American.


Dizziness usually charRcterizes
trade movement in midsummer, but
this year furnishes u gratifying ex-
ception. Business. long held in leash
by the unsettled conditions Of q year
or SO ago, is pushing forward to make
up for lost ground. The boom is
here. despite the depressing effect Of
uncertain tariff legislation. Railroads
are finding their equipment made
Quate and have been making large
purchases, while the activity in their
repair shops testitles to the demand
made upon their resources. All this
has had stimulating effect upon the
iron and steel industries, which for
the most part are working up to their
capacity. Many new orders at Spar;
rows Point are local evidences of the
return Of better times.
Public confidence in the increased
earning power OF large corporations
Is shown by the enhancement of the
market value Of securities, and there
is a Willingness to absorb new bond
issues. Weather conditions have to
an extent affected the crop estimates,
but the agricultural outlook is in eve
ry way satisfactory and encouraging
Corn, the main crop, promises to be,
bumper yield, and as prosperity be
gins and ends with the farmer the
country wears the smile Of content
ment. Rains may result in some
diminution Of the cotton crop, but
the opinion is that it has suffered lit
tie. The wet weather, which was re-
Gently used AS q bull argument, now
appears to have actually helped In
stead of hurt conditions in the west,
The trade volume of general mer-
chandise is increasing through the
fact that stocks which were greatly
depleted are now being replenished.
The whole outlook is one of unus-
ual promise and testifies to the won
derful recuperative power of the
country. Its production in all lines
will be abundant, and with no ex-
traneous conditions interfering with
the normal operation of the law of
supply and demand there is every
reason for widespread satisfaction.

Huntington, W. Va, July 21.--1One

a remarkable sight, which sgnay BIO
seen by the person sufficiently inter-
ested to leave his or, her bed in time
to reach this section Of the town, by
$50 or 6 O'Clock in the morning. In
former years these hucksters have

In lines on the two sides of the street

as they pleased in an innovation made
by the new police force. !: The pa

Nothing furnishes a more conyitc-
ing proof OF the city's development,
than this array Of wagons, Witch
serves to show the vast amount Of
green vegetables consumed by the
people Of Huntington In q day. Hunt
ington is the favoTite market Of the
whole tri-state region; and draws
gardeners from twenty-five miles
from the city. ;, e. :. ,III>>. y: .%51>
The great distance wfiiSh they are
required to travel to reach the mar
ket has peculiar effect on the hab-
it's Of the gardeners themselves. The
produce Is gotten ready for market
in the evening and as soon as It, Isl
ready and the wagon loaded the gar
dener starts for che ferry either; at
Chesapeake or the one operating be
tween ProctorvilIa and Guyandotte,
to wait there until the ffrst boat runs
at dawn often they ssy.congregate
thiokly on the banks an69it REQUIRES
some hours for the boats to handle
them. AS the MOST advantageous
market Is open to the man reaching
Huntington ahead of all others there
is always a rush for the fret boat.
Not all Of the hucksters, however,
are from Ohio, there being truck
gardens on the West Virgfnia aide
which are paying handsome dividends
to their tenders. In this matter
Huntington has a great advantages
