FIELD OF FUTURE
WARFARE IN AIR,
Army Officer Discusses Posi-.
biIities Of AeropIane.
COULD DESTROY A NATION.

BY Dropping lncendiary Mixture Fly.
ing Machine Could Duplicate sar
\ Francisco Fire After circIing Two o,
Three Times Above a City.
Believing firmly that the field OF fu-
ture war operations will be at least
partly In the air, the heads Of the
United States army are looking into
! the matter OF trying out the aeroplane
as an offensive weapon. According TO
Major George o. squIer. president Of
the army aeronautical board. the aero
plane at the present rate of construc-
tion and art Of manipulation will be
capable of flying at the rate of 100
miles an hour within two years. Lieu
tenant Foulols. who accompanied Or
vile Wright In his five mile straight
away dash from Fort Myer to Alex
andria. Va. and return. says that at
one time the aeroplane was 800 feet
IN the air.
Since that flight Orville Wright has
attained height of 1900 feet in Ger
many. Foulois declares that Wright
could bave flown four times ms high as
he did at Fort Myer If he had cared
to do so.
Dropping Explosives From the Air.
II was suggested to Major Squier
that with the improved capacity of the
Wright machine to soar in the air,
practically ut the will of the aviator.
the aeroplanes may be made to carry
explosives for offensive purposes, to
be dropped on cities or warshlps.
1T will hardly be explosives" said |
Major Squier, that will constitute the
really dangerous weapon of the aero
plane. 1t will use what we term in
mixtures compositions con-
tanning phosphorus and other chemic-
ais which ignite readily on contact
with the air. Destruction by fire rath-
Pr than by explosion will be the real
war work of the flying machines. /
really believe that In two years or per-
1aps little longer we will have aero
planes that can fly at the rate of 100
niles per hour. and the dirigibles will
be making seventy or seven
y-tiye.
IAN aeroplane armed with hundred
'ounds OF the strongest of these In
endiary mixtures could duplicate the
Kan Francisco fire by circling two or
hree times around a city. The de-
truction which they could wreak at
otal expense Of $4,000. including the
eroplane. would surpass that of
by the biggest battle
hip feet that ever was got together
ring $10,00000O worth Of shot and
hell into the doomed town.
Terrible to Contemplate.
Army officers have not talked of
MS aspect of the possibilities In pub
c. The talk is rather 'scary.' but =
iere is no exaggeration in saying that
ie value of the acroplane as fight
X force to be reckoned with in the
airs of the future is something ter
BILE to contemplate. i
What may be done with the dirigi-
G is another problem. The dirigible r
neither as convenient nor as mobile

e OF carrying far heavier loads of de- a

Peterson was the next case and was am-

one time was an emyloye in Peterson's
drug store at Decatur. He, Smith,
claimed it had been the bargain that he

Cavanaugh appeared for defendant.
George McCole aud Burton Woodruff,
two Dawagiac boys Who had plead guilty
to breaking and entering dwelling house
H. Decatur were released on suspended
sentence. They had been called up for
sentence two weeks ago but on
account of the youth of the
offenders and the circumstances
surrounding the case, sentence was de-
ferred until Tuesday. Judge Des Noignes
gave the boys some good tatherly advice,
which if followed will make them good
citizens They are required to write to
the Judge every week, telling him where
they are and what they are doing Then
on the first of tue next October session
of court they are to appear and report
personally to the court. Their future
will largely depend upon their conduct
and behavior during their probation.

FINE FEATURE FILM
At GEM THEATRE
THE GEM THEATRE BEGINS A
SERIES OF FEATURE FILMS
TONIGHT-CHANG PROGRAM
THREE TIMES WEEKLY.

The Gem theatre announces that
beginning this evening a series Of
feature films will be presented in ad-
dition to the regular line of comic
and descriptive pictures which have
pleased the public in the past. A
brief synopsis of the feature films
for tonight and tomorrow night is
given as follows:
"Convict's Revenge.
A chain gang is seen on the high
way near the prison, where they are
working under the watchful eye of
guard, who stands near well armed
and ready to fire in case any one OF
the prisoners tries to escape. One
unruly fellow who gives the guard
plenty of trouble, manages to evade
the latter's careful scrutiny and
steals away. When the prisoners are
counted at the gate 1t Is discovered
that one is missing. and Immediately
a posse sets out to apprehend him.
The fugitive has good Roadway, but
1t is not long before his pursuers are
close upon him. He manages to
throw them off his track by con-
cealing himself behind some rocks on
the sea coast, and when the officers
come to the spot they, thinking that
the fugitive has jumped into the sea,
scan the surface and fire in the d.
rection in which they believe he
swan. Finally, giving him up for
lost, they turn back, but after lit
tie while the fellow comes from his
hiding place and manages to make
his way to the home of the warden,
to whom he owes grudge and
whose child he has decided to Kid
nap. 1t is not long, however, before
the youngster Is missing and again
the posse sets out in pursuit. They
ovretake him on the highway and are
about to shoot him when he holds
the child up to receive the bullets
in case they fire. Keeping his would
be captors at good distance he. runs
along the road, but all the while the
mother of the little one is pleading
with him to release her child. Final
ly he returns the youngster to Its
mother. ! -!

Opening Of White River Valley and
Lake Wenatchee Region.


Commissioner Kinney and Road
Supervisor Shaser were here the
first of the week, says the Leaven-
worth Echo. In conversation with
these gentlemen we learned that for
the past two weeks Mr.. Shaser has
been employed on the roads in this
portion of the county. In so far as
it is possible he has finished work
on the Chumstick road. The build
ing of the Wenatchee Valley &
Northern railway which crosses the
road in some places occupies the old
wagon road, makes the permanent
improvement of that road impossible
at this time, says Mr.. Kinney. The
matter of who is to pay for the work
necessary to put the road in as good
condition as it was before the rail-
road was built is not yet settled.
Mr.. Shaser will wind up on the
Eagle Creek road this week and says
he has given the people of that sec
ton a good road.
A. D. Allen, who has charge of the
roads from Chiwaukum to Wenat-
chez lake, has been busy for some
time and is getting the road to the
lake in satisfactory condition. A
good bridge across Mason creek is
one of the improvements on that
road, says Commissioner Kinney. He
also said that ferry would be put
on the Wenatchee river at the foot
of the lake for the benefit of the
residents Of the White river valley
and Wenatchee lake. A substantial
iron bridge, says Mr.. Kinney, will
take the place of the ferry just as
soon as the finances of the county
will permit such an improvement,
which will likely be within a year.
George Siverly, road commissioner
for the lake and White river. has
confined his work to the upper part
of the lake road and the White river
valley. Mr.. J. ]. Henry. who re-
sides in the White river valley and
owns a valuable tract of land, says
the roads in the valley have been
much improved recently.
When made accessible by good
roads and bridges the White river
valley and the region about the lake
will be the most desirable In Chelan
county. The land is unusually rich
and fertile and is especially adapted
to dairying. The timothy hay raised
in the White river valley is said to
be the finest in the state. Fruit rails
ing and farming is profitably fol-
lowed and in the past year the am
cunt of land that has gone into Guilt
walton has more than doubled.
Up to within the past year # was
not possible for residents of the lake
and valley to obtain title to their
idHu pcCduSe INC Io"HoHip Hdu hot
been surveyed. All this has been
settled and many of the homestead
ers obtained patents to their land
last fall and the past winter. This
makes it possible for owners to part
with a portion of their land and thus
make room for more settlers. The
development of this section of our
country will follow the opening of
roads and the building of bridges as
sure as night follows day.
