has received a report from A. II.
Woodson, head of its educational bu-
rcau The report says in part:
"The distilers, brewers and whole
salers of Ohio assure me that they arg
unanimous in the determination to
put the law breakers out of the liquor
business in their state. Their view Of
the situation is that It is business sui,
eide to permit infractions Of the law
THE liquor interests have estab.
ishe a vigilance bureau and have put
out twenty sleuths to search for VIC
ati0ns of the law. They are gather.
ing evidence all over the state and In
several instances. notably in Dayton
ana Cincinnati, have forced lawbreai-
RS ont of business. In some cases
they have found that the local author
ties oppose the prosecution OF offend
lers and in such cases they present
their evidence TO the grand iuriss
and employ counsel In the prosecu
ton Official prosecutors if so In
clincd, can hamper the work in some
cases but in more fragrant cases dare
not act the traitor 10 the state In

ST. PEUE October 7.-S. Louis Puhl, pilot, and Joseph NJ. O. Reilly, aide of the balloon St. Louis III, unoflicially winners of the Lahm cup and cash prize offered by the Aero Club of St. Louis who landed their balloon at Wahkon, Minn., arrived in St. Paul late today.
 Awaiting them here was telegram from F. A. Faust of St. Louis, reading:
 "Unofiicially you are the winners of the Centennial and Lahm cups. We send congratulations.
 Speaking of their trips, Yon Puhl said regarding the raising of the ques. tion that he was not qualified for the race:
 "The fact that l entered the race was notification enough. Anyway, whether won the cup or not, I fol lowed the race for the fun of it and have the satisfaction of knowing that I made the longest flight. We left St Louis at 4:50 clock Monday afternoon the second to go up, and landed at Wan kon, near Mile lake at 9:35 O clock Wednesday morning.

ST. LOUIS SCENE IF MANY FLIGHTS BY
 MANY FLYERS
Curtiss Made Three Aero plane Exhibitions of
 Short Distances

ST. LOUIS, Mo, October 7.-Curtiss made three aeroplane flights here today One was more than quarter of mile and the shortest of the three 220 yards
 Curtiss last performance of the day was cut short by his engine failing when he was about twenty-five feet from the ground. The machine glided to an irregular landing place and the rubber guy snapped. The aviator said the machine would be ready for service tomorrow.
 Curtiss used a bi-plane with a twen. ty-fve- horsepower motor.
 George Francois Osmont, who is here with Farman bi-plane, which won the endurance prize at Rheims, attempted three times at dusk to satisfy the crowd that he could fly. He circled the field several times, but not fast enough to enable him to leave the ground
 Roy Knabenshue, Lincoln Batchey and Thomas Baldwin made flights in dirigibles. Baldwin started for an ex- tended flight, when motor trouble over came him and he was forced to land in the crowd. His second flight, after repairs had been made, was successful.
 Knabenshue and Batchey thrilled the spectators by mounting simultaneously and flying about two miles side by side. Knabenshue left Batchey's airship in the rear when the latter's motor be- came overloaded. Knabenshue then swept out over the park in great cir cle

RICH SAMPLE FROM COLE PROPERTY
 ON EXHIBIT
Specimen at Wilson & Wayne Office Would Run
 9 Per Cent

A specimen of high grade copper ore from the shaft of the Cole Development company is now on exhibition at the office of Wilson & Wayne and is at, tracting much attention from the many patrons of that firm. The sample weighs about twenty pounds. It would probably run fully 25 per cent. in cop, per, if assayed. It contains consider, able chaleopyrite and bornite and is q handsome sample.
 This specimen is said to be charac teristic of the ore taken from the bot tom of the 320 foot shaft of the Cole Development property after the first shot was made in the course of contin ued development work, after suspen sion of mining operations for several months. For some time the shaft has contained quantity of water that had seeped in while the mine was not being worked, but that has now been removed with skip and the resuming of oper- ations there is attended by excellent showings. Should the large vein that the Cole development company has opened and s now sinking on at g depth of 320 feet inclined or about 200 vertical continue to yield ore of the present rich nature, the future of this property as paying mine will be as. sured.
 Beside the high grade specimen de scribed above, there are several smaller samples of lower grade ore on exhibi tion at Wilson & Wayne's. This orc was taken from a crosseut tunnel l3O feet long which has been driven on the Cole Development property at dis tance of about half a mile from tho inclined shaft. These smaller samples are of good sulphide concentrating ma terial in altered schist.

ANOTHER ATTACK
 MADE UPON COOK

Washington, November That Dr. Frederick A. Cook could not have reached the pole and that Commander Peary did attain the goal that has cost the lives of so many intrepid explorers was stated tonight by Admiral c. M Chester, retired.
 The officer was member of the com mittee of the National Geographic so- ciety that passed upon Commander Peary's data and announced tn cir con- victions of it's genuineness. The lec- ture, delivered to scientists In the hall of the University club, created a pro- found impression for it practically was the first utterance by an official of the Geographic society, although given un- officially, which has fatly and openly cast discredit on Dr. Cook.
 Admiral Chester contended that Dr. point in his travels north he witnessed a remarkable sunset If he had been at that point, the speaker said, he would have found the sun high in the heavens.
 The testimony of the Eskimos who accompanied Dr. Cook also was re- viewed. This testimony, the admiral insisted, showed conclusively that the party witnessed the sunset at S1 de- grees north, a considerable distance from the pole. He also declared that pr. Cooks party would have been com pelled to travel 40 miles day to have accomplished tho trip. a speed that was impossible, even under the most fa- vorable circumstanoes.
 The speaker made numerous refer ences to the nautical almanac to dis prove Cooks contentious and to prove those of Peary.
 While last nights lecture was in- tended only for scientists. Admiral Chester announced that he had ih course aof preparation a statement to the public, which. he said, would es- tablish the truth of the matter.
