ST|RS THE AERO CLUB
EFFORTS OF AUTOISTS TO CON-
troll AVIATION MEET.
Believed That Washington Has
Good Chance to Secure the
International Event.

1t is believed that the action Of the
American Automobile Association in
reaching out for the control Of national
aviation meets in the United States will
add considerably to the chances of Wash
ington and Baltimore for landing the
next International meet at College Park,
or some other place between Washington
and Baltimore. It is a certainty that the
Aero Club of America will not give up
the control of aviation without a strug-
gle, and in order to hold its affiliated
clubs 1t will do everything in its power
to make them contented with its direc-
ton in national and International affairs.
Since the contest for the aviation meet
has practically narrowed down to Wash
ington and New York, it Is held that
there is little doubt that New York. in
view of all the circumstances, will favor
Washington because of the fact that out
side cities like st. Louis, Chicago and In
dianapoliS, each of which wants the meet.
say that, failing its own selection. it
would rather see the international meet
go to Washington than to any other city.
Washington the Natural Center.
Washington, 1t is conceded by all, is
the natural center for an international
gathering and there probably will be more
foreign aviators attracted to the meet,
if it is held here owing to the presence
of the national government and the dip
lomatic corps than If 1t were held in any
other city.
New York, Of course, is anxious to a.
sure itself of the loyalty and good feel
ing Of its affiliated clubs, and this Is the
crucial time when 1t can secure this
support better than at almost any other
period. Therefore. it is held. the mere
fact of the American Automobile Asso-
citation going after the national control
of aviation will have considerable effect
on the decision of the Aero Club of Amer
lea as to where the next international
aviation meet shall be held.
With a subscription of 5000 the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad raised the Balti-
more end of the guarantee fund for the
International meet to $4,000. The guar
antee fund is thus growing somewhat
slowly but quite surely and Mayor Ma
hool and Col. Joyce say there will b.
little trouble in raising the remainder OF
the $4,000 which is Baltimore's share.

Priest Dies From Overwork.

CHICAGO Ill December 4.-Rev.
Henry ]. Dumbach. former president of
st. Ignatius College, died of uraemia in
his apartments at the college building
yesterday. He had been suffering from
nervous collapse. brought on by too close
application to his exacting duties as head
of st. Ighatius College. About two years
ago his ailment intermittently developed
symptoms which were considered alarm
ing. About a year ago his entire right
side was paralyzed, but he steadily and
repeatedly declined to go to a sanatorium
for treatment, and at the time Of his
death was assistant pastor of the Holy
Family Church.

ness or thankfulness. They were of
good physique and lived partly by ag.
riculture, but their habits were loath-
some. 1t was largely due to his abil.
ity to keep his temper even under
provocation that Mr.. Pratt was able to
manage them. They fancied that the
traveller must have superior natural
powers to control his anger, and in ad
dition to that they were notified by
the Dutch authorities that any harm
to the naturalists would meet with
prompt vengeance.
Perpetual warfare is waged among
the tribes, for treachery is constant
and every death leads to blood ven
geance. The naturalists were often
goaded to near the danger point Of
shooting, but restrained themselves,
and so won to some extent the conf
dence of the savage. Head hunting Is
a custom of the land and not merely
are villages at war against villages,
but also houses are at war against
houses The result is that fear and
treachery stalk like twin demons
through the island. Women never go
out except under armed masculine
fuard They do the work in the fields
with man guarding them with his ma
tive weapons. European and Chinese
traders who have attempted to treat
the savages with their own methods
have rued the day, for vengeance has
fallen swiftly in the night =. 1t is a
country where every rustic may mean
the approach of death-bearing treach-
cry. Even their warfare is stealthy
murder, not open fighting in which
bravery is required.

elers went to Humboldt Bay, where

logic peculiarly its own, that this
shows that the plea of law enforce
ment is joke" The joke is on the
forty-one DRINKS. II the law had not
been enforced, these DRINKS would
still be wallowing in the gutter in
stead of working on the city works.
No law was ever written that was
not violated. The laws written upon
Mount Sinai, prohibiting murder, adul-
terry, stealing, lying, is violated every
day, and every hour of every day, and
every minute of every hour of every
day. And it is no joke when one of
these murderers or rapists feel the
halter of the law. It is Law Enforce
ment, the one thing this country most
needs.

In Mansfield, La, two men were
convicted of selling intoxicating
drinks contrary to law, and fined in
the aggregate 5000. Afterwards five
of the six hundred dollars were wiped
out upon the promise of the defend
ant to be good in the future. There
is no law enforcement in such pro-
ceedings as that. That is a mere
make-believe, deceptive practice, to
catch, deceive and satisfy the unwary.
A law loving community ought not to
put up with any such palpable decep-
ton. Laws that are for the public
good ought to be enforced; honestly,
fairly, impartially enforced. All
other laws ought to be repealed. No
law breaker should be paid to be
good. And especially should no fav-
ors be shown to the unscionable ped
dlers of a poisonous stuff for men
to put into their mouths to steal
away their brains.

The room to be protected by the
cleptograph contains system of
wires and contacts that are properly
distributed over the windows, odors,
safes, ETC., being connected with all
objects of value.
AS soon as the stranger penertrates

voluntarily and unconsciously touched
by the person, will direct itself auto
matically toward the contact, that is
toward the thief, and after having
opened the objective shutter, will ignite
the magnesium powder intended to
supply the flashlight, and again close
the objective after the view has been
taken, then exchange the film, get
new portion of powder ready and
register the exact hour.
The whole of these divers opera

other view, as soon as the intruder

cleptograph thus follows any motions
of the thief, in order to prepare
set of authentic and irefutable docu-
ments, to assist the police in their
search for the criminal.
The current required for working
the apparatus is either half of that Of
an ordinary battery or-after due re-
duction through proper resistances-
the current derived from the cleo

entirely hidden from the burglar, the
cleptograph cannot possibly be harm
