WILL HONOR CURTIsS
RECEPTION PLANNED FOR Sue
CEssFUL AVIATOR.
In Quiet OF Vineyard County Young
Man Evolved Plan to Conquer
Air--wife Gives Great
Aid

New York. Aug. 2s--The winning Of
the international aviation cup at
Rheims by Glenn curtiss. the Ameri-
can aviator, was received in aeronaut-
ical circles and by the general public
here with great delight, and prepar-
atoms will be made to give Curtiss a
hearty demonstration ON his arrival
from abroad. The American winner of
the James Gordon Bennett trophy Is
expected to reach New York the middle
of next month.
Glenn Curtiss comes from Ham
mondsport, N. Y. and there. in the
quiet OF the vineyard county. ne turned
over in his mind the ideas that led up
to the development of his marvellous
aeroplane. The aviator believed that
high power could be controlled on an
aeroplane just as he controlled high
power before on a motor cycle and won
a race at Ormond Beach. in time that
has never been eoualled. Curtiss work.
ed quietly away in mis- air-ship
shop at Hammondsport day after day
and the ideas took definite form.
Behind this quiet. unassuming
American stood his wife, confident in
his future success and squirting him on
when discouragements came. When
Curtiss sailed awav for Rheims early
In the month. his wife stood on the
pier and as the steamship Savoie cast
of her lines. she called to MIN:
'Be sure and bring back that cup"
'Tn do my best" called back the avi-
ator.
att won't be my fault If the Ameri-
can flag you gave me Is not first across
the line" Curtiss had been practicinG
with a biplane at Mineola. near this
city, for over a month before he sailed
for France.
His flights at Mineola convinced him
that the biplane could stand a higher
power motor. He went back to Ham
fnondsport and there built a new ma
chine with which to compete for the
Bennett cup.
This machine. according to A. M. Her
ring, partner of Curtiss. carries the
largest and most powerful motor ever
Installed on an Acceptance. though oddly
enough, the machine Is probably one of
the smallest that ever has made
flights. Curtiss took II abroad as his
personal baggage, as 1t only weighed
400 pounds. The motor is a sixty-horse
power affair.
Members of the Aero Club did not
inform Curtiss that he had been Sc
lected to represent America In the
Rheims conest until about four weeks
before his departure and his bIpIape
uaa hardly given a try-out on this
side OF the Atlantic before he sailed
Curtiss has promised to compete in
the Hudson Fuller memorial flights in
This city the latter part of next month
THE biplane recently used by Curtiss al

society, and is being flown by e. Foster

Death of Mike Maloney.

The Los Angeles Times that ar
rived at Nogales Saturday evening
of last week contained the follow.
ing account of the sudden death of
the well known Mike Maloney,
who made his home in Nogales
many years:
SANTA MONICA, June 10.-To die
suddenly, surrounded by gay bath
ers, none of whom knew that he
was passing away or even i'll, was
the tragic fate on the beach here
this afternoon of Michael Maloney,
wealthy mining man from Tue
son, Ariz.
1t was but a little after 2 o'clock
when Maloney rented bath suit
at the North Beach bath-house and
took a plunge in the surf. Walk
ing out of the water he laid down
in the sun on the sand. He was a
stranger and nobody paid particular
notice to him for few minutes,
till his peculiar expression and at
titude attracted attention. 1t was
found that he was dead, having
passed away without moan or
struggle, Less than twenty min
utes had elapsed between the time
he applied for bath suit and the
time his corpse was carried into
the bath-house.
Death is thought to have re-
suited from heart disease. The
Coroner will inquire into the cir.
cumstances. The remains are at
the Bresee-Todd undertaking par
lors awaiting the coming of that
officer.
Letters, papers and effects
found in the pockets of the dead
man identity him. He came to the
beach today, as shown by a return
trip ticket of the Los Angeles
Pacific trolley line. He had a
bank book showing deposits in the
Meschants' National Bank in Los
Angeles, and Cancelled checks show
ing that his signature had been
good for at least $4,000 in that in.

Contributions to the johnson
Monument Fund.

IT is to be greatly regretted that the
subscriptions to Gov. johnson Memo
rial fund the first of the week was not
more than half of the $4,000 confident
ly expected by the committee in charge
a month ago. The shame is upon the
large city of Minneapolis, where less
$1,000 had been contributed the first of
the week. But comparatively few
weeks ago, when the death of Gov.
johnson was announced, there was uni
versal sorrow, and when a Memorial
fund was suggested, it seemed as though
the voluntary contributions of dollar
or less would pour in; but the sudden
ebb only again emphasizes the fact that
human sympathy is short lifed in the
hurly-burly of everyday life, and like
the passing of boat in water, which
parts in the passing in great waves, the
water speedily resumes it's wonted place,
and all evidence of the boats passage is
lost.

Ia
The beggarly sum contributed thus
far from New Ulm and Brown county,
adjoining the home county of the late
Gov. johnson, to his Memorial fund,
should shame the city and county into
doing something noteworthy in the near
future, as token of the high esteem in
which the Governor was held as man
and as the Executive of Minnesota.
Common humanity and self-respect call
for it.

placed in the shop next week, when it
will take the place of more than half of

the general trend OF economy in labor
saving machinery which the inventive
genius of man is constantly bringing
into large manufactures of all kinds
with reslstless competition. That is to
say, to reduce the cost of production the
brain OF one man is steadily displacing
the manual labor of dozens and scores
OF men the sweat of whose brows is nee
essary for their existence and the exist
ence of those dependent upon them.

The early settlers of Minnesota will

the pioneer editors of the state, who
published a paper at Fairmont when
rat skins were legal tender for all
newspaper subscriptions. At that
time be used to ship his paper via
Waseca and haul it himself by team
from here to Fairmont. Many of the
early settlers will be interested in
learning that he is i'll in the city of
Washington suffering from the effects
of two wounds received during the
civil war. His condition, while not
serious, is unsatisfactory. Colonel
Lounsberry has been away from his
Office for more than two weeks. At
first his complaint was diagnosed as
rheumatism, but later developments
showed that his condition was due to
wounds of more than forty-6ve years
ago. He now holds a position as
examiner in the government general
land Office. We hope for his recovery

The Minneapolis Tribnne's political
gossip Of Monday morning states that
great pressure is being brought on ex-
Gov. John Lind to consent to become
candidate for Governor next year, and
that he persistently refuses, but there
is hope in the mind of Democratic lead
ers that he may finally yield. Ex.Gov.
John Lind, who has served four terms
in Congress, the last one from Mime
apolis, is not fool, politically or other
wise, and if he has even remote
thought of accepting the Democratic
nomination for Governor next year he
would be very foolish to say so nine or
ten months prior to a nomination and a
year before another election. He would
make great sacrifice financially to be-
come candidate, and with him politi-
cal honors are aboye par without it; but
there is scarcely shadow of doubt that
he could be elected Governor against
any old line Republican in the State.

IT has become common statement
that 10000 American farmers went to
Western Canada the last year, and that
Is, 900 have gone there this year. It is
also stated that on an average each one
took with him $1,000 in money and 9TH
er property. To that extent this coun-
try lost not only large sum of actual,
visible wealth, in addition to the loss of
1876, 900 good, swide-awake American
farmers. Now. those Americans are just
across an imaginary line 80 far as they
can see, and yet they are forced to
pay heavy duties under our tariff for all
American made goods, which will es-
TRANCE them their mother country. But
that is only small part of the tariff eff
feet. It Is common knowledge that
many millions of dollars have been taken
into Canada in recent years by Ameri-
can manufacturers to conduct their
business on equal terms with Canadians
in the increasing demand in Canada for
farm implements and machinery of va
rious kinds. But worst of all is it that
the new tariff wants to bully Canada to
trade with the United States, while cut
ting off trade with that country by the
threat to add IS per cent. to our tariff
unless they let in their lumber and 9TH
er goods that we want on equal terms
with their mother country, England.
Does any one believe that Canada can
be bluffed? By the way, what is the
statesmanship of this country coming
to?
