police OF the new Tenderlon station. Their front
room is large and lofty that It has been hope
less talks try and heat II with the steam pipes
The man behind the desk has wished often for
the comfort OF a carriage heater and Esquimau
clothing.

asked Commissioner Bingham some months ago IL
a storm door could not be built. He said It could.
Then the police waited.
AS Captain O'Brien sat the steps last night,
mopping his forehead and tanning himself, four
husky men approached with section of polished
oak They said they had come 10 erect storm

that we &C not cultivate intensely they do in
other countries. For instance, raise an average
q only twelve and a half TO thirteen and half
bushels Of wheat an acre. according 10 Mr. Bar
rows, whereas in England the yield is thirty-six
bushels an acre. anc other countries produce in

BALDWIN In THE AIR
Goes Up an His DUigible for Fesc
Minutes at CarniCal.

Captain Thomas S. Baldwin was there with his
drigibie balloon, and because of that fact the
carnival at North Arlington, N J., began at 6
p. m yesterday to have real aeronautic flavor
Captain Baldwin arose gracefully, and came back
to earth at the end of four minutes. His balloon
had before been tried out, the breezes that
blew were gusty, and anyway 1t was time for the
twenty thousand persons who had waited patiently
for six hours for something to appear that was
more aeronautical than carousel to go home to
their dinners Many lived miles away in the
country.
The aeronautical carnival. so-caled by the West
Hudson Aero Club. of New Jersey, it appeared
yesterday. with the exception of the short excite
ment furnished by Captain Baldwin, resembed g.
small comber of Coney Island without an ocean
In the matter of hard fare and soft drinks gypsy
shows and merTy-go-rounds the temporary Jersey
resort positively to the fore. Aeronautically
the exhibition was disappointing TO many persons.
The carnival was opened by Governor Fort. who
arrived at the grounds at $3.50 o'clock, accompanied
by members of his staff. He was the chief object
of interest in long procession that formed at the
railroad station. Governor Fort said: Nothing
has ever occurred that will be of a benefit
to America than this wonderful discovery OF aero
nautic appliances If we had been told not so many
years ago that would travel under the Hudson
River in a tunnel talk through the telephone to
Chicago. we would have called the man maniac
who thus prophesied It is not possible for US to
measure the genius of America. 1 welcome and
join with you to-day in welcoming these inventors
of aerial appliances to New Jersey"
Assembyman Edward Kenny was introduced by
". c. Eakins of the West Hudson Aero Club. The
other speakers were Evelyn Baldwin. the Arctic
explorer, and Representative Eugene A. Kinkead.
An informal luncheon was given 10 the Governor
and guests in a by, and then all eyes were
again turned toward the Baldwin diTigible.
An aeropIane and a "fapping wing" machine
were exhibited in sheds behind some bushes on a
