written to Charles l.. Doran of Cincin-
natl lodge No. ., who is at the Alexan-

satisfactory to the Elks.
Grand Exalted Ruler Holland says in
his letter to Mr. Doran:
There are many difficulties encoun-
tered in obtaining grand lodge news
and while many matters must neces-
sarily be kept secret, still there are
manys things which it is perfectly
proper to make public, and there is
no reason why the newspaper mon

obtaining this information. l desire to
cooperate with the news fraternity and
assist them in every way possible. l
would appreciate it as a great favor if
you would take this matter up with the
representatives of the local papers and
arrange for a conference with them as
soon as convenient after my arrival,
which will be either on the evening of
July or on the morning of July 8. If
they in the meantime, will formulate
their ideas as to the best plan to be
adopted l shall be very glad indeed to
conform to their plan if I find 1t pos
sible to do So"

M. II. Benson. mining man of Cres-

which he dubs ''paroplane," in which
he has combined aeroDlane and or
thopter principles, with a gas vessel
attached to diminish weight, He says
his craft is capable of making $50 miles
an hour.
Mr.. Benson has associated with him
Arthur Boyce and George w. Condor
of Los Angeles, and will begin work
on South Main street building a two
passenger machine which he proposes
to fly to San Francisco this fall His
application of the orthopter or bird
flight idea is new, as it is applied to
the front and back of his craft in

CYCLIST INJURIES
WOMAN AND GIRL
HUSBAND DRAWS HIS KNIFE TO
ATTACK RIDER
Offender Taken to Police Station,
Where He Declares Accident Was
Unavoidable and Gains
His Release

Mrs. Little Montgomery of 4410 Kala-
mazoo street and her daughter Helen,
8 years old, were struck by motor
cycle ridden by Adolph Smith, 4S1 North
Burlington street after they had
alighted from street car at Temple
street and Lake Shore avenue, knocked
to the pavement and bruised painfully
yesterday afternoon.
r. G. Montgomery, the husband, be-
came hysterical when he saw his child
and wife fall to the street. drew a
knife and attempted to injure the mo-
torcyclist. But for the prompt action
of bystanders a tragedy might have
been enacted.
Hurled from the Wheel
Montgomery and his family left the
car and started toward the curb A
number of other passengers also
alighted and were walking toward the
sidewalk when Smith on his motorcycle
appeared. He attempted to stop the
machine and avoid collision, and find
ing he would have to run into the
crowd behind the Montgomerys, collide
with the latter or steer into the curb he
tried for the sidewalk but struck the
little girl. She was knocked to the
pavement and the force of the col
lision hurled Smith from the wheel. AS
he fell he collided with Mrs. Mont
gomery, knocking her down.

persons and assisted them to the re-
ceiving hospital, where the police sur
geons dressed their injuries and pro-

Other witnesses corroborated his state
ments and he was allowed to go.

Cyclone Flying Machine

The tornado principle is applicable
in operating a flying machine, accord
ing to Professor Orville owen of De
troit, who has formed a company to
exploit his idea, which he describes as
follows:
Il use seven bells, cast of metal and
of a peculiar shape. They are tuned
in harmony. Inside each L spin a
OGDEN top as close to the metal as
possible without touching it. On the
bottom of each top is a drumhead,
which can be frightened or loosened to
bring the top in accord with its bell.
1.-THE spinning, humming top brings
about a harmonic vibration in the bell.
With seven tops and seven bells re-
spending tremendously to them l have
fourteen tones, which become a har-
monte tone, and this sWells and rOars
like a cyclone. The tops will also act
as horoscopes and balance my aeria!
car, just as the gyroscope balances the
Brennan car on a mOnorail.
"As the cyclone lifts much more than
its own diameter, our mechanical cy-
clone will lift loads wider and longer
than it's bells. L have lifted and held
in the air with a small top and bell
twenty-five tons of sheet steel My
lifting device has so little friction that
the airship can be kept in the air an
indefinite time and may be brought
gently to the ground when desired"

If the Chutes park management can
find some person who will pay for the
cost of the gas and return charges on
the balloon for the privilege of taking
an aerial voyage the balloon Los An
geles which is now in captive service
at the Chutes, will be sent away on an

ascension every month in the year.
This has never been done in any part

was made in January two in Feb
ruary, four in March, one in April and
two in May. In the east the balloon
ing season lasts about five months, but
it is possible twelve months in the year

WRECK BALLOON
BIG GAS BAG RESISTS MANY
CARTRIDGES
ONLY ONE IN 100 SHOTS PUNC-
TUREs AIR CRAFT
Infantry Will Be Used to XIII Men in
Basket, While Artillery Fire
Will Be Used to De-
stroy Airship

The amount of rife fire a balloon will
successfully resist has been made d
matter of experiment by the German
military authorities, who are satisfied
the opinion of aeronauts that a balloon
may be injured but not demolished by
bullets is a correct one. AS a result
Of the experiments the German regu-
lations hereafter will provide that the
infantry shall confine their efforts for
destruction to the men in the basket,
and if the balloon itself is to be de-
molished that procedure is to be left to
the artillery
In the German experiment 1900 car
tridges were fired at a forty-foot ball
loon by two companies of infantry at
the shooting ranges at Juterborg,
about forty miles from Berlin. The
distance was 1850 yards, and while the
balloon was captive the wind blew in
gusts from varying directions, so that
it undoubtedly reVolved and ducked.
The day was clear.
The main company fired 1890 car
tridges in five minutes without the
slightest effect on the balloon being APP
parent. The machine gun company
was then called into action, firing 200
cartridges, but without any visible eff
feet. When the balloon was hauled
down it was found that seventy-six
DullelS ndd gone through the fabric,
but it was evident the balloon might
have remained up with passengers for
some time and would have come down
gently because of the loss of gas. But
if a basket had been attached it was
evident its occupants would have been
hit.
In spite of these encouraging expert
ments from the aeronautists' stand
point the Aero Club of America looks
with diSfaVnr on thp idaA of TaOoaGeaA
Kentucky and New England farmers
that a balloon is a legitimate mark.
The club will probably devise some
means of making it more easy to APP
prehend persons who shoot at bal
loonists.

CHAMP CLARK FACET|OUS
LEADER. TALKS
OF LIARS AND FIGURES.
Comments on Chairman Payne's
Downward Revision Argument
MI. Mccall Shes q Castor.

Figures may not lie,' said Champ
Clark in the House last Saturday, but
some liars certainly are figurers." He
was discussing the facility with which
different results may be obtained by diff
ferent people with the same set Of figures
in calculations on the effect of the tariff
schedules.
The application of his argument was
that while Chairman Payne had calcu-
lated downward revision from the prac-
teal working out of the schedules as
fixed in the conference report. he Clark
would prove that it was upward revis-
ion
After him came Mr.. Mccall of Massa-
chusetts, who declared that the 1gurer
who furnished the basis for the Clark
computation was certainly the cham
peen liar" and the poor laymen went
away from the hall of the House that
night resolved to support their respective
figurers. according to their policy.
In the Senate yesterday Mr. Bristow,
one of the republican progressives. found
fault with the figures on the conference
report and gave his ideas of what the
practical effect will be when they are
applied.
In some other quarters the charge was
made that the Payne figures were all
wrong, because they had included lump
sum of free importations which should
have been deducted, 1t Is claimed, from
the total of impOrtations before beginning
to compute the ad yalOrems.
1t was contended that this failure to
substract had led to an error in Mr..
Payne's figures and that instead OF the
conference report showing a reduction,
under existing law, of ninety-seven hun
dredths of / per cent. it is in reality
higher than the present law by 1.1o per
cent.
