TRIUMPH FOR AMERICANS.
Mr.. David Lloyd-George Greatly Ina
pressed by Wright Machine.

London.-Mr. David Lloyd George:
Chancellor of the Exchequer, re.
turned from Rheims, where he went
to witness the exhibition flight of
aeroplanes. He declares that he was
greatly impressed with the marvellous
feats he had witnessed, and especial
ly with the Wright aeroplanes.
1T was great triumph for the
Americans" said he. "The Wright
machine was the most sure and de-
pendable of all. M. Lefebvre seemed
able to do anything with it. With the
others there was always the half ner-
vous apprehension that they might
descend at any moment l saw no
reason why the Wright machine
should not go sailing on forever. /
felt rather ashamed that the English
are so hopelessly behind
"As to the use of the aeroplane in
warfare, it appears too frail and
fiimsy to be taken seriously and I
apprehend no danger OF any airship
invasion.

agencies in Europe. This can be
taken as an indication of the business
activity likely to follow these races"
The example of M. Sommer. who is
one of the substitute pilots in the
contest for the International Cup, is
suggestive. Six or seven weeks ago
he first saw flying machine. He
bought it, and within few days had
made world record for flight. 1t is
not so many years ago that the auto
mobile was no further developed than
is the aeroplane to-day.
NJ Lambert, who pilots a Wright
machine, expressed his conviction that
automobile speed tests will be re-
placed by those with the aeroplane.
Even at this STAGE" he said, lit is
real racing, not merely demonstra-
tions, that is taking place. The fin
ishes are close and at times the aero
planes can be seen struggling for
supremacy in speed. I believe this
meeting will do large amount of
good from a sporting standpoint"
That the aeroplane has passed the
initial experimental stage is certainly
impressed upon the tens of thousands
of spectators who see the assemblage
of human birds at Betheny preening
their great wings and soaring like
eagles. That the endurance contest
of five laps around the great course
total distance of more than thirty
one miles--is not difficult may be in
ferred from the flight of M. Paulhan,
and Mr. Curtiss' fine performance in
qualifying for one of the contests in

ternational Cup will set a new stand.

DIES SIGNALING FOR

Wireless Operator Sticks to His
Post Too Long.
FOUR OTHERS ALSO LOST
Vessel Hits Rock and Slides on Into
Sea, But All Passengers Are
Saved in Boats-"Good-bye, ;"
Said Sinking Operator Eccles.

Seattle, Wash. Five lives were
lost when the steamship Ohio, of the
Alaska Steamship Company, sank on
Steep Point, Alaska, and many more
deaths might have resulted had not
the wireless operator sent out frantic
calls of &c. @. D." The vessel ran on
a reef at about / o'clock a. M, and
the 1913 passengers we're taken off in
small boats. The ship slipped off the
reef and sank thirty minutes after
grounding, carrying down four of her
crew and the wireless operator, Geo.
e. Eccles, of Winnipeg, who stuck to
his post to the last minute calling
for aid
The &c. O. D." calls were received
first on shore in Ketchikan, Alaska,
by an operator named Booth. Soon
he heard the danger signal answered
by operators on board the steamships
Humboldt and Rupert, of the McKen-
zie Brothers Steamship Company.
Both those vessels we're asking the
position of the Ohio. AS soon as
they got it they fastened to aid the
sinking ship. When they arrived they
found the passengers adrift in small
boats with most of the crew. The
Ohio had sunk with her gritty wire
less operator, her purser, F. ]. Ste
phen, of Seattle, two seamen and the
quartermaster. The women were
taken off the sinking ship first.
The survivors told thrilling story
of the laundering of the ship. Com
ing when most of the passengers were
sleeping, the grounding of the vessel
caused much excitement. The cap
tain, John Johnson, ordered the crew
to man the lifeboats and take on the
passengers, many of whom were
dressed in night clothing. Meantime
Eccles stuck to his place at the wire
less apparatus and kept sending out
calls for help and giving the position
of the ship. The vessel ran clear on
q ledge of rock. A large hole was
stove in the bottom and the water
poured in rapidly. One of the first
messages sent by Eccles was:
"Ohio sinking fast. Cannot hold
out. Passengers are being taken off
in small boats. Captain and crew will
stick to the last"
Soon after that message was re-
ceived by the other ships and on
shore came this one:
Passengers all off and adrift in
small boats. Captain and crew going
off in the last boat. Waiting for me
now Goodby."
That was the last word of the OPP
orator, for he stuck to his post too
long AS he was sending that mes
sage the Ohio slipped off the rock and
down to the bottom, carrying him
along, as well as the four members
of the crew who were waiting for him
to join them in the last boat.
The passengers who were left adrift
in the small boats all we're saved.
The Rupert and the Humboldt ar
rived in time to pick most of them up.
Others were taken ashore at Swanson
Bay and the fishing boat Kinghsher
saved others. The rescued passengers
on the Humboldt were to be landed at
Ketchikan and the Rupert City took
part of the survivors to Vancouver.

dominated, were extremely enthusiast
tic over the cold water issues, and
every resolution in furtherance of the
Prohibition cause was upheld agrees
sively and unanimously.
Toward the end of the session the

This gentleman had recently returned
from abroad, where he had been re-
cuperating from his arduous work in
behalf of temperance. Smilingly ac-
knowledging his tumultuous recep-

THE AIR HAS BEEN CONQUERED.
That the Aerane Has Passed the Experimental Stage Was Impressed
Upon the Spectators During Aviation Week at Rheims They Saw
the Human Birds Preenng Their Great Wings
and Soaring Like EaQlcS.

Rheims. France.-The worldwide
interest in the doings of the aviators
at Rheims increased as each day saw
some record broken, some new feat
accomplished.
No one can read the story of the
performances and retain any linger-
ing doubt that the conquest of the air
has been achieved and that it now
only remains to further develop and
perfect the aeroplane.
The popular impression that as
cents were practicable only in very
calm weather will be dispelled by the
performances in wind blowing twen-
ty odd miles an hour and with strong
eddies. M. Paulhan's flight of nearly
nineteen miles, part of it at the great
height of nearly 500 feet, and in the
course of which he overlook and
passed railway train, gave the as
semblage magnificent spectacle, and
it is not surprising to read of the
boundless enthusiasm he excited.
In view of the high wind there
might have been no racing but for a
visit from the President of the Re-
public, accompanied by members of
the Cabinet and distinguished officers
of the French and British armies.
That flights were successfully and
safely made In the circumstances not
only demonstrates the practicable
stage that aviation has reached, but
seems to prove also the superiority
of the biplane in the matter of stabil-
ity over the monoplane. At any rate
the latter type of machine did not
figure in the records.

NEGRO SHOOTS q
men IN MONROE, La
Half Crazed. He Dashes Through

Fatally Wounded.

Monroe. La.-Half-crazed either
by whisky or cocaine, Bill Way,
negro from Pine Bluff, Ark. dashed
down the main street Of Monroe with
doubie-barrelled shotgun, firing in
every direction. Citizens returned
the FIRE and the negro finally fell dead
after receiving score or more Of
wounds. Twenty-one persons were
injured in the fight.
When the negro fell his body was
dragged into the street and later
taken to public square and burned
In the presence of several thousand
people.
The negro appeared on the street
with his shotgun under his arm and
his pockets filled with shells. When
he started to fire, those citizens who
were armed covered him and forced
him into doorway. where he held
his ground. He would fire, step back
into the doorway, reload his gun and
fire again. Several men returned his
fire every time that he appeared and
he finally fell with bullet through
his heart
Four of the twenty-one citizens
VINO were wounded by the negro were
in serious condition, while the in
juriessof thesseventeen others weretof
minor nature. 1t was feared for a
time that mob might wreak ven
geance on other members of the race,
but the authorities took prompt pre-
cautions and quiet was maintained.
Two officers who closed in on the
negro were fatally wounded. They
are Patrolman Bigger, shot in abdo-
men, and T. A. Grant. Deputy Sheriff,
shot in breast and neck. Simon
Marks, merchant, received serious
wound in the breast. George Nc
Cormick had his arm almost torn of
by shot, but will recover. Among
those who received slight wounds was
Mayor Forsythe.
1t is believed the shell used by the
negro contained small shot, for only
those close to him were dangerously
wounded.
The body of the negro was placed
on pile of rubbish and about ten
gallons of coal oil poured over it.
Mayor Forsythe, despite his injury,
went to the scene and pleaded with
the mob, but his entreaticr were in
vain.
