company, for I went on the stage When
I was 13 years old. The invitation was
most cordial and earnest, but refused.
Prefers to Make Own Headway
IT preferred to make my own mead
way without depending on FAMOUS
cousins. The fact is, never pankeu
on this relationship fact, TINS IS sle
first time I ever talked about 1t Tor
publication, and it's first announcement
in print. If you want to know the
truth. I never even saw my famous
cousin except once; then my 1atner
held me up as a child, during his hrst
campaign, that 1 might wave my mana
at him as he went by in procession.
When the invitation came, few years
later, 1 was on the stage and was not
even tempted to accept it, though OF
course it would have been a great nom
or. Although my mother was Mr.. NC
Kinley's own first cousin, we have new

fession appealed to me, and went IN
for bicycling on professional lines.
soon became an expert and have teen
at that work ever since. 1t is dlilcult,
of course, but not nearly so fatlgulng
for me as the constant routine OF STOCK

Miss La Velle bears considerable re-
to the earlier pictures OF the
famous martyr president showing the
family traits rather strongly. But sne
is reluctant to talk of the relationship
and avoids it, especially as a subject
of newspaper publicity. But every
year, on the anniversary of McKinley's
death, her wreath is placed lovingly on

memory. The girl, who IS only IS
years old, is graduate of the Bloom

enough, it was there that she took up
trick bicycling. Her first public APP

BALLOON MAKES
SUCCESSFUL TRIP
LOS ANGELES SAILS OVER CITY
TO COLEGROVE
After Interesting Voyage Through
Varying Currents, Gas Bag AIiehts
Gently in Barley FieId-Le-
royxez Follows Flight

The Los Angeles, piloted by George
Duesler, made an ascension from
Chutes park at ii o'clock yesterday
morning, and after making 5000 feet
above the business section, sailed over
the Westlake district and landed at
Colegrove, near the corner of Estella
street and Santa Monica avenue.
The balloon was in the air two hours.
From an aerialist's standpoint the
voyage was an unusually interesting
one. The balloon was held at the
Chutes until the fog cleared away, and
in the meantime the air currents,
shifted northward. AS Duesler went
up he caught land current taking
him northeast, but at 1000 feet a con-
trary current took him straight south
over main street. He circled back and
forth over the city, catching varying
currents and going as far west as
Central avenue.
Over East Sixth street the pilot
allowed the balloon to drop consider
ably before checking it, and to coun-
teract this threw out enough ballast
to take him up to the height of a
mile At this altitude the Los Angeles
went southwest and then turned more
westerly until directly south of Cole
grove. Duesler picked out a barley
field as a landing spot and opened the
valve several times, the balloon sail
ing northeast as it came down into
the lower current.
Successful Landing Made
The landing was made with the
valve" which in aeronautics means
that the rip cord was not pulled, but
the gas was allowed to escape without
tearing the envelope. The balloon
came down neatly over the Colegrove
trolley wires before the trail rope
touched the ground, and as it came
earthward Earl Terry and William
Lowden, who had followed the aero
stat in an automobile, seized the rope,
and with the aid of judicious spill
ing of sand by Duesler, guided the
basket down so gently that the land
ing was made with less jar than in
stepping from car.
Frank Leroyxez, who built the ball
loon, trailed its course with an auto
mobile, watching the action of the Los
Angeles minutely, as it was his first
opportunity to see it make flight. 1t
was built completely in Los Angeles,
even to the valve and wicker basket,
which are of the most approved pat
terms.
IT never saw a better behaving bal
loon," said Duesler, NOR prettier
one. It is planned ideally for pleas
ure ballooning, and for that reason
was well named, for there is no place
in the country for balloon trips purely
for pleasure like Los Angeles"
The Los Angeles will be sent by ex-
press today to Oakland, where 1t will
be sent UP by it's new owner, Gen. P.
A, Van Tassell, early next month.

WORKS OF ART TO BE
PRESENTED TO SCHOOL
Statuary and Paintings to Be Given
Los Angeles High In Honor OF
Commencement

Statuary and paintings which the
alumni of Los Angeles high school
have been three years in accommodating
will be presented to the school this AFT
ernoon. The morning will be given over
to various exercises by the students
marking the beginning of commence
ment week.
The statuary was made by the IA
nous Boston sculptor, Caprone, and
comprises a large number of pieces of
historical and classical design. A life
size statue of Lincoln, busts of Diana
and Hebes, the Grecian goddesses, and
the singing boys Of Della Robbia. A
life size statue of Jean d Arc and pusts
of washington and Longfellow are
among what is probably the finest col
lection of statuary ever presented to
high school in the United States. Sew
eral paintings and other mural decora-
tions executed by the students OF the
school will also be presented.
Harvey Housh will make the presen-
tation speech in behalf of the winter

liver a similar address in behalf of the
summer class of 1908. The 206 members
of the class of 1909 will receive the COW

that what will probably be the event OF
the season will attract large number
of the 5000 alumni and other persons
who have been and are connected with
the Los Angeles high school,
