ening calm 1t was about o. before
he got away. Then he made perfect
start, circling to the southwest and in
a few minutes disappearing from view
over the houses and trees. The crowd
watched for his return in vain. Min
ute after minute passed and one after
another came to the conclusion that he
had been forced to descend, when at
the end of five minutes he reappeared,
coming in over the Ninth street road.
Flies High
He flew over the crowd at an alti
tude of about 200 feet and went off TO
the north and west, rising steadily till
he attained an altitude of about 1000
feet. Going as far as the river he
turned back and again crossed over
the grounds at high altitude, turn
ing a second time to the northwest. On
his second turn two birds followed him
away into the sky, seemingly bent on
making a close inspection OF this
strange monster of the air. Out in the
northwest he rose till the setting sun
appeared under him and he seemed to
be travelling on the top of gold lined
cloud that lay low on the horizon. The
airship, with the two birds following
the clouds and the sunset made pic
ture that will not soon leave the minds
of those who were witnessing their
first aeroplane flight.
Returning the second time toward
the exposition grounds Ely dropped
gradually to within 400 feet of the
earth, arriving at the west end of the
grounds he shut off the motor and
dove to the earth in a spectacular de-
scent, amid the cheers of the special
ors.
Never ExceIIed Anywhere
1t was as pretty flight throughout
as one could expect to see. Even those
who had seen aeroplane performances
in the east and abroad said they had
never seen a prettier exhibition in the
getaway, the perfect control of the OPP
orator, and the descent. The spectat-
ors can judge for themselves as to the
distance covered. Ely was in the air
1919 minutes and covered about eighT
miles. He carried with him an aero
meter, an instrument that he seldom
has with him in flights. He says he
looked at it but once while out in the
northwest and it registered 1900 feet.
After that he became occupied in
watching the lay of the land beneath
him, or rather of the water, which he

BANK LAW TO BE AMENDED.
House Passes Bill Protecting Minority
Stockholders From "Freeze- Outs"

House Passes Bill Protecting Minority
Stockholders From "Freeze- Outs"
Washington, June 21.-To protect
minority stockholders of national banks
from freeze outs" the house passed
a bill'to amend the law regarding the
corporate existence of the banks. Upon
charter renewals stockholders have
slightly changed the names of the in
stitutions, Hquidated the old banks by
turning them over bodily to the new
ones and continued practically the
same business at the same place. The
minority stockholders thus lose the
value of the good will of the business
as expressed in the stock market value
and receive only its book value. 1t APP
peared to be the opinion in the house
that while it might be desirable to
have shares owned by estate transfer
red to active interests 1t would be fair
er to purchase the stock than to freeze
out in the way now sometimes prac-
ticed.
