that's a fine old scrap between
Old Doc and Kid Peary. 1t amt
no six-round J. Whatshisname-
Biddle thing, either. It's to a

Old Docs the one best. Between

There amt nothing in it but
that glory thing, either. Fine
trick, warming your pants on a
hunk of ice as big as the Flatiron,
shaking loose toes out of your
socks and watching the scroots
grab them. Even a mutt must
have a change of grub, and cold
storage toes puts 1t all over old
boots and tallow.
You've got to give 1t to Old Doc
for that first wallop. That counts
like a loan broker adding inter

phony. Somebody's been blab-

One thing helps Old Doc,
though. 1t wasn't his fault his

to be refused yesterday because
of the lack of accommodations.
The poultry and fresh fruit ex-

Tomorrow is governors day and
Governor Hay is expected to de-

German Aviator's Balloon
Sets New Record by
Forty-Hour Flight.

STUTTGART, Germany, May 31.-Af-

airship. Zeppelin H." crashed in a
tree near CophiHgnon, in Wurtemburg.
al 10 O'Clock this morning. and was so
badly damaged that TIE return to Fried
richshaften, the starting point of the
wonderful cruise. had to be abandoned
for the day. The bow of the airship
was stove in and other injuries sus-
tained which made 1t necessary to send
20 Friedrichshafen for expert mechan-
les
At the time of the accident the airship
had been aloft for forty hours and fif-
teen minutes and had Travelled approx
imately 800 miles.
Only Interruption.
The only interruption of tie flight
which began Saturday n; yht shortly be-

The descent at Untertuerkhefn ter
minated a continuous voyage of close
20 forty hours, and is an achievement
that has again set all Germany to
singing the praises of the aged aero

event in German aviation and of
equal Importance with the aeroplane

From Friedrichshafen - BiperfeId
and thence TO Cntertuerkhein is about
600 miles in a direct line. with the
deviaions, however, that Frequently
contrary winds forced the ship 10 fol-

will be al least eco miles
As an Illustration of this the first
descent was made near here. After the
