Dover, England, July 27.-Hubert
Latham in his aeroplane fell into the
sea when two miles off the British
shore after having made a flight from
sangatte. near Calais, in a driving
rainstorm.
The heavy weather caused the aer.
oplane to be lost sight of by spectators
at CAla1s. Latham was picked up from
the sea by a torpedo boat.
Failed in His Boast.
When Latham left Sangatte he de-
clared he would outdo NJ. Bleriot by
flying over the channel to Dover and
continuing without landing until he
reached the city Of London. Immense
crowds had gathered and mighty
cheers sped him on as his craft lef,
the cliffs headed for England. The
rain came down in torrents. Up to
the moment of starting, few believed q
start would be made. On account Of
the heavy, weather the aeroplane and
warship were soon lost to view from
the French shores.
Aeronauts declare Latham's attemp'
today in a heavy rain was one Of the
pluckiest and most remarkable feats
ever undertaken by aviators. They be-
lieve the downpour of rain responsible
for Latham's failure to land on Eng
lish soil.

tage OF the special rates which will

Washington, July 27.-The willing

the slightest danger OF a presidential

The National tribune., 1909-05-27

Gov. Stubbs has received a rather
Impressive lesson that National politics
are run on somewhat larger lines than
the Kansas brand. He had a very good
candidate for a position in the Attor-
ney-Gcr.e=afs Department, and the
President agreed 70 appoint him. This
good. luck was too much for Stubbs,
and he lost no time in informing his
people thru his chain of papers that he
had landed a $4,000 place all by him
self, without any help from the rest of
the Kansas delegation. Then the Sem
ators and Representatives from Kansas
rose to a parliamentary inquiry, and
the result was that the President re-
Voked the appointment with a rather
caustic letter to the Governor. The
President was not siding either with
Gov. Stubs or with any of the factions
In the Republican Party in Kansas, nor
was he for moment thinking of turn
ing down and disregarding any of the
Kansas delegation. Gov. Stubbs is a
fright man. generally means well, and
mas always learned by experience. He
knows more now than he did some
weeks ago.
