How He Was Shot.

Reports from the bedside of F.

He was removed to this city and
given medical attention. He has
made no statement as to how he re-
ceived the wounds. two in the head
and one over the heart, although he
has denied that they we're self in

him from talking until he is strong

and shot by robbers.

successful fight was impossible with
the machine that was being used But
in moment everybody was convinced.
There was the thing being done be-
fore their very eyes. The conquest Of
the afr. though accomplished now daily
elsewhere. was being demonstrated
here. 1t is not to be wondered at that
the people went wild. The worst
grouches were the most rabid of all.
Trophy for Altitude Flisht
To get down to actual figures, Ely
remained in the air about eight mill
utes, covering Eve miles or more. de
assembled at one time to an altitude
variously estimated at from ], ZOO to
2,100 feet He has hopes Of being
able to do even better while here. The
exposition directors have hung up a
special trophy to be given him IL he at
tains an altitude of 5000 feet during
the week, and he will try for it when
conditions are right.
II was about 5:45 when the damage
done to the aeroplane in the earlier
fight of the afternoon was repaired
The left end of the upper plans was
broken so 1t was necessary to put in a
new brace and the right guiding plane
was also slightly torn. At $50 the air
ship was taken to the east end of the
field, the people were gotten OF TO the
side lines and after short prelimi-
nary test of the motor the flight was
begun.
After run OF about 100 yards the
aviator tipped the forward rudder up
ward and rose as easily and gracefully
as a bird. Higher and higher he
went, heading of toward the south
west. He passed over the fence 50
feet in the air and continued on. Half
a mile out he turned slowly, climbing
steadily. Making wide sweep of the
south he sped away over South Rock
Island, being at one time lost to view

ELY IN CHICAGO
NEW YORK FLIGHT
Aviator Exhibiting Here One OF
Those Entered in Contest
For Big Prize.

Chicago, Sept. 14.-With the arrival
of ]. G. Mars, the aviator, today the
final arrangements for Americas great
est aviation meet will be completed
This will be preliminary to the $25,00o
race between Chicago and New York
for which the prize has been put UP
by the New York Times and the Chi.
cago Evening Post. All the COMPETE
tors IN the race, according to contract,
must qualify daily in speed and alti.
tude tests at the Hawthorne race
track, Chicago These daily tests will
begin with Saturday, Oct. 1, and con-
tinue until the following Saturday
when the air men will get away on
their long fight.
Should there be unusual setbacks in
the way OF wind or weather, there will
be a lee-way Of one week both for trial
fights and the start to New York.
However, a reference TO the statistics
of the weather office show the average
first week of October to be unusually
balmy and otherwise favorable TO air
contests.
The main competitors for the rich
pdize are Charles K. Hamilton. ]. c.
Mars, Charles F. Willard, J. A. D. Nc
Curdy, Captain Thomas S. Baldwin,
Joe Seymour, Todd Shriver. Philip W.
Wilcox, o. P. Hellings, Eugene Ely and
the English aviators Charles @. Har-
mer and James Radley. A Wright ma
chine is certain OF nomination but its
aviator has not been chosen.
In the exhibition flights, Glen H.
Curtiss and Clifford B. Harmon will
compete, the former certainly and the
latter in all probability. Mr.. Harmon
has the question of entering the race
under consideration. But If he COM
petes it will be as an amateur and
should he be successful the $4,000
cash prize will be converted into a
trophy.

Eugene Ely.
Why?
Ask anyone of the 5000 people who

afternoon. Or-wait-you don't have
to ask them. If you get within earshot
of one Of the bugs he'll tell you all
about it without any cross question

Not one who saw the fight, the first
successful one ever made in the Mis-
sissippi valley between st. Louis and
st. Paul, but became a wild enthusiast
on the spot. The instant Ely assembled
the crowd was transfxed Each indi-
vidual became an aviator for the time
being, rising as Ely rose, soaring as
he scared. tipping and dipping as he
did and finally coming back to earth
in one grand sweeping swoop.
Then everybody came out of 1t and
joined in a stampede for Ely and his
craft and he was Rugged and patted
and shaken by the hand and congratu-
lated till he was glad to get away and
take refuge In his tent.
Nobody but a circus press agent
could begin to do justice to the story
of the flight. This was the first time
such a feat had ever been accomplish
ed here and there were huudr eds who
saw the earlier attempts of the same
aviator who were firmly convinced that

London, Marcn 17-Winston
Churchill's advocacy OF plan to
modify English prison regulations

by suffragists as a veritable victory
for their cause. They see in his
championship of a less rigorous
prison regime a step toward the ac-
complishment of choir campaign
against the treatment of their mem

in public demonstrations.
Heretofore suffragists who have
gone to Jail have been treated like
