NEWS OF THE AERONAUTS
SUGGEST LOVING CUP FOR
LOS ANGELES AERONAUT
Member of Aero Club Believes Roy
Knabenshue Entitled to Testimo-
NAL for Records in Aerial
Navigation

Samuel A. King, the veteran aeronaut
OF Philadelphia, has been presented
with valuable testimonial by the Ben
Franklin Aeronautical society, together
with memorial letter in appreciation
OF his services in forwarding aeronau-
tics. The gift is a miniature balloon
complete in every particular, even to
the equipment of the basket By me-
chanical means it can be operated to
ascend ten or twelve feet In the air.
Il should like to see a more general
appreciation of the sacrifices and eff
forts made by other pioneer aeronauts
of the United States" said a member of
the Aero club of California yesterday.

we could do that to advantage in Los
Angeles if some appreciation were made
OF the work accomplished by Thomas
5. Baldwin and Roy Knabenshue, which
has been of benefit to Los Angeles. No
one has ever presented Mr.. Knabenshue
as much as silver cup yet he has done
an immense amount of pioneer work.
He is living in Los Angeles and has
made some Of his best records here.
Not only that, but he has made his own
way and has asked no favors of any
one, which is an American spirit I like
to see appreciated. I think Los An

ANDERSoN-APACHE ASSAY
SHOWS RICH LEAD VALUES

DOUGLAS, Jan. 17.-If the operators
OF the, Anderson-Apache mine ever rim
into well defined vein of the chara ctar
or some silver ore recently encountc ed
which is regarded as probable. the
copper deposits already known to exist
VIII have to "go some" in value to keen
from being a secondary product. Some
samples taken by superintendent Houl-
ton from one of the WINES at a point
forty feet below the 300 level gave SIR
pr1sing values. One Of these ran 68 ner
cent lead and 682 ounces silver. A sec
ond sample went 50 per cent copper and
l54 ounces in silver. In the earlier DAYS
of the mine, on the upper levels, large
punches Of rich silver were frequently
encountered.
But that is largely speculative and
copper still remains king on the Ander-
son-Apace works. Development work
during the month past has been cen
tered largely on two wines below the
300 and the big drift that is being run
towards the intersection of the two
faults. Both wines, which are about
forty feet below the 300 level, have
gone down in ore that has paid the way
of each of them. The drift is in 400 feet
on the contact and every few feet some
ore is encountered.
Another item Of interest in the
Apache field is that Michigan people
are sinking shaft about so feet north
of the Anderson-Apache line. The shaft
is already down $50 feet. This will tend
to prove up the Anderson-Apache.
The management and directors of the
company were never more enthusiast
tic over their property than now.

WANT UNIFORM RATES ON
TRANSPORTING BALLOONS
Express Companies Have Reduced
Charges, but No System Exists,
and Appeal Is Made to
Commission

Aeronauts who have felt the high
transportation charges on balloons will
be glad to learn that the express COM
panies have cut down their charges to
the regular rate. Charles A. Coey has
received a letter notifying him that
hereafter the regulation charges will be
imposed upon balloons, and the special
charge heretofore made has been an
nulled. In some cases this special
charge has been as high as eight times
the regular rate.
The lack of uniformity in charges for
transportation of balloons is illustrated
locally by the fact that Mr.. Coey was
charged $3.50 for shipping the "Ville
de Dieppe" from Indianapolis to Los
Angeles by express, while the Santa Fe
charged Dick Ferris $102 to bring the
United States back from Arizona. At
the regular rate from Indianapolis Mr..
Coey would have been charged about
one third of the amount he paid.
The question of balloon shipping
rates has been taken up with the in
terstate commerce commission by a
number of aeronauts, together with the
rate for transporting airship frames, in
an effort to have established some uni
form set of charges.

of fainting. The tone of Blake's voice
revived her instantly.
There were no more scares. A few

cliffs; but from there to the beach the
forest was separated from the wall of
rock by little sandy plain, covered
with creeping plants and small palms.

was hardly more than a quarter of a
