MOTOR DRIVEN
10 FEET DOWN
BY THE FALL

Cologne. July 14.-Persons who to-
day visited the spot at which Captain
oscar Erbsloeh's dir1glble balloon
dropped were able to form an idea Of
the force with which the airship
struck the ground. They found that
the motor was driven ten feet into the
soft earth. Those who saw the bodies
Of Captain Erbsloeh and his four COM
panions say that the hands of all the
victims Of the disaster were clenched,
a. though the men, as they were
hurled with Lighting like rapldity to
the ground, clutched at the frame OF
the falling airship In their vain search
for something to lift them from he
clutch of fate.
Erbsloeh was one of the most re-
nowned of Germans a%eronauts and
aviators. He won the International
cup In the distance race for balloons
at st. Louis In 1907.
The distance Erbsloeh's dirigible fell
is estimated at from 1900 feet to 5000
feet.
The bodies Of the FIVE men, crushed
beyond recognition, lay beneath the
debris of the wrecked balloon when
those who witnessed the fall reached
the spot where 1t fell. The accident was
caused by the explosion Of a benzins
tank.
The dirigible Erbsloeh belonged to
the Rhine Aerial club. 1t resembled a
miniature Zeppelin dirigible, being but
one-sixth the size of the airship of the
famous inventor. The Erbsloeh con-
sisted Of twelve balloon nets placed
side by side In a rigid and covered
frame like the watertight compart-
ments of a ship. A long aluminium car
for the engines and passengers was
swung below the gas bags. The car

their home cities. AS the discussion
Waxed warm, a third party suggested
that whichever of the two men could
write in ten minutes some good rea-
sons for his championship should be
pronounced victor. While the New
YORK merchant chewed his pencil
and made strokes on the paper. the
Boston man wrote as follows:
Boston has more wealth per capita
than any other city in the world and
It's investment has built up civiliza-
tlon and prosperity in every state of
the Union and almost every land on
the globe.
Boston and her suburbs present
more localities rich in historical and
biographical associations, more
beautiful scenes, interesting muse
ums and charming summer resorts
than any other city in America.
Boston was the birthplace OF
scene of action of the majority of
the artists, authors, educators, phil
a~nthropists and diyines whose lives

states a place in art and literature

MAYOR RUN
CITY FROM
PRISON CELL

Salem, Mass, July 14.-With the un
pleasant experience of seeing for the
first time the mayor Of a massa-
chusetts city sentenced to prison, the
residents OF the state and particularly
the Inhabitants of Lawrence are now
trying to solve the curious problem as
to whether the convicted mayor can
continue to hold Office while serving
his term In prison.
Found guilty Of c~onspiring to secure
the confirmation by the board of alder
men of the appointment Of James 4.
Hamilton as chief Of the Lawrence fire
department and of conspiring later to
secure Hamilton's removal from that
position, Mayor William P, White OF
Lawrence was sentenced to serve
three years in the Essex county house
of correction and to pay a fine OF
$1,000. Samuel Kress was sentenced
to two and a half years imprisonment,
Matthew Burns to two years M
George D. Smart to a year and a half.
Ernest DUDE also was convicted but
not sentenced, his east being placed on
file because he had given evidence for
the prosecution.
Hamilton is now under indictment
for alleged bribery in securing confirm
alton Of his appointment. 1t is expect
ed that he will be placed on trial In
September. He still holds his position
as fire chief.
Mayor White made an impassioned
address to the court, saying that he
had been innocent of any wrong In
tention. Burns spoke In similar vein,
while the other convicted men made
nc statement.
Judge Schofeld was not long in an
nouncing his sentence. He spoke Of
the enormity of the offense Of city Of
icia1s in violating the dignity of their
Office. He also censured the other men
for working In cooperation with the
mayor In his illegal work.
Mayor White was first to receive his
sentence. He showed many signs of
nervousness. 1t was thought by his
friends that he might be placed on
probation on account of the dignity of
his office. AS the sentence was read
by the clerk White fell back into his
chair.

Furthermore, the women arc opposed 10
the granting of any franchise TO the
Saltair railroad of any character with

Would Congest Traffic.
The members of the club take the
stand that the granting of the franchise
would block traffic during the summer
seasons, in that the company would not
be able 10 ruH enough trains to accom-
modate the public and at the same timo
keep the streets clear for the regular
street car traffic.
Owing TO the high price of living, the
club appointed a committee, consisting
Of Mrs. George Ross, Mrs, NJ F. Bur
meistcr, Mrs. +. Nj. Wheeling and Mrs.
NJ. i. Parker, TO draw up petition TO
be presented 10 the city council, asking
that the peddlers license of 500 q year
be repealed. Owing TO the license, it
Is not possible for street vendors and
pcddlcrs 10 offer foodstuifs for sale TO

hopes that fhe repeating of the license

creasing competition between street ven
dors and the ordinary dealers and there
