| WALTER WfLlMAN
HEADS FOR EUROPE

New York, Oct. 16.-With
clear sky a fresh breeze anc going
25 miles an hour, Walter Wellman,
in his big dirigible balloon, Amerl-
ca, flashed by Nantucket Lightshlp
at IL o'clock today on his way
across the Atlantic. Two hours
later Wellman was reported south
of Nantucket Island making Is
miles an hour without using the
Americas engines.
This information, posted by
bulletins, answered the questions
of thousands who are interested in
the progress of the first attempt to
fly from this country to Europe.
Since last evening the whole coun-
try has been awaiting eagerly for
news from the America. From
the the time she vanished in the
fog after her propitious start from
Atlantic City her journey was the
center of interest to all who admir-
ed daring and novelty.
The news of the electric storm
off Cape Sable caused grave alarm
to those waiting for news at this
point and led to redoubled efforts
TO get in touch with the party,
while the promise was made that a
government tug would be sent at
once to rescue thcI expedition If
this was deemed necessary
Through the night and early hours
today wireless stations along the
North Atlantic coast continuously
oueried, attempting to get in touch
with the America or with some
steamship which knew the where
Iabouts and condition of the balloon
1t was believed today that the first
wireless report from Wellmar
would come from a steamship, u
the leader of the expedition con
tinued in his determination to keeT
towards Europe.
LATER-The British mail steamer
Trent picked up Wellman and hi
crew from the wreck of the alrshll
375 miles off the North Carolina
coast the 18th. No one reported In
iured from the i'll fated aircraft
The America broke all previous rec
ords by travelling for u hours.

A WOMAM'S HAT.

There's a Large Pot Of Trouble Brew
ina For One Milliner.
Mr.. Standish Was mad when he went
into the millinery establishment. and
the longer he stayed the maCSrr he
got. Presently he walked ov,~ to
stunning black creation that hung on
a peg near the window and said:
"This Is the hat l want to see you
about"
The proprietor came forward.
"What can I do for you" he asked.
"You can fix this hat over the way
my wife asked you to-" said Standish
explosively. "She wants the feather
put on the other side, that bow moved
to the front. and she wants the rim
to bulge a little more over the tenn
PIES"
Seeing a guilty flush creep over the
proprietor's face, Standish went on
with increased heat:
"She says you have refused to make
any alterations on the ground that a
stitch added to or subtracted from the
hat is bound to ruin 1t, but tell you
that's all nonsense. My wife knows
how she wants her hat to look. and II
she can't stand up for her rights I'll do
1t for her. She is coming around this
afternoon to try the hat on again. II
1t isn't ready by that time there will
be no end Of a row."
The proprietor twirled the black hat
on his forefnger and looked from 1t to
the head saleswoman lugubriously.
81 remember" he said, that the lady
who ordered that hat did bring it back
yesterday to be remodeled. Perhaps 1t
will be possible to make the altera-
tons suggested after ALL"
The managers humility made Stand
ish feel very proud Of himself.
THAT'S the only way to deal with
those fellows" he said when he left
the shop. you've got to meet them on
their own level. 1t takes man - do
that. No wonder women get cheated
out Of their very eyeteeth. They
haven't got sand enough to say the
things that have to be said to secure
their rights"
Throughout the day Standish con-
tinued to revel In self congratulations,
and he actually went home half an
hour ahead Of time to see II his wires
hat had been metamOrphosed into the
thing of beauty he had suggested.
"Well," said he jubilantly, "was the
hat all right?"
"All right2" said Mrs. Standish.
"They hadn't even touched 1t. How
could you expect it to be all right when
you didn't stop in to see about it?'
"But 1 did STOP" protested Standish.
II saw everybody about the place and
laid the whole establishment out In
great shape. Here's their card to prove
was there / picked it up as / was
passing out"
Mrs. Standish took up the card and
read the name aloud.
"O.o-o-hg she cried. 'Is that where
you wentY Why, you got into the
wrong place. What on earth will that
manager Think He must think you
are crazy"
~ don't care If he does" said Stand
ish Imply, "but ! would like to know
what the owner of that black hat Will
say when she sees 1t made over &C.
cording to my directions" York

The gladiators were originally male
factors who fought for their lives or
captives who fought for freedom. They
were first exhibited at the funeral cere-
monies Of the Romans. 263 b. c., and
afterward at festivals about 215 B. G.
When Dacia was reduced by Trojan
1000 gladiators fought at Rome for 123
days In celebration Of his triumph. 1t
is said that in the triumphs Of Pompey
the Great 10000 fought through a
series of many days. These combats
were suppressed in the east by the
Emperor Constantine about A. D. 325

County History rlention.

In general, a history of any coun-
ty is of special interest only to the
neople of that county, or to scat
tered persons living elsewhere who
were born in the county or whose
parents were born there. The pop
ulation of Highland being under
5000. it is entirely out OF the ques-
ton to sell its history at the price
of a common school book or a pop,
ular novel. 1t cost much time and
labor to get up a, county history,
and when 500 are printed, the coS'
of manufacture is nearly as mnch
as when $500 are printed. 1t is
only a quite populous county that
can absorb an edition of 25OO cop
les. Another thing to be consider,
ed is that such books are printed
from type and not from plates. the
probable demand governing the
number of copies printed. Uonse-
quently, a second edition is scarce,
" thought of by the publisher, and
it would cost almost as much a.
the first. He wishes the first and
only edition to be large enough,
vet not so large as to leave any con-
siderable number of books remain
ing unsold. l..
Those citizens who are awake to
the Importance of history OF their
county will not grudge the cost
But the proposed History OF High,
land will cost decidedly less than II
issued in the way such books are
usually published. In fact, it will
be within the reach of any person
The exact price will be announced
at an early day. =
Still another thing to be taken IN
to account is that every advance
subscriber is entitled to the book
at a lower charge than if he waits
until the book comes out and ther
has to be visited by a canvasslne
agent. Road canvassers are scarce
and their services cost money
Many people have an idea tina

Economical.


A good story is related Of an Eng
lish theatrical manager who by thrift
and hard work had amassed a fortune.
Previous to the production Of one play
the stage carpenters had to repair a
trap, and the head carpenter went to
the manager and informed him that 1t
could not be done in the dark.
"Well, lad, thee won't have t gas,
answered the manager. "Here, tax
this and buy candle"
And he handed him halfpenny.
The carpenter pleaded that they
wanted two in order to get sufficient
light.
"How long will t. job TAX theer'
asked the manager.
"About ten minutes" was the reply.
"Then cut t. candle in two" was the
answer. "Thee won't have any more
money"

Getting the Kinks Out Of Custom
House TangIe.

GETTING the Kinks Out Of Custom,
House TangIe.
In the far east rules and restrictions
may be made to yield to influence with
a latent force behind 1t, as instanced
by this serio-comic incident found In
Captain A. B. Townshend's book, "a
Military Consul In Turkey" A certain
highly influential foreigner at Adrian
ople wanted a Christmas tree and Or
dered one from Sofia to come by train,
but when the tree, an unpretendous
little fir about ten feet high. arrived
at Adrianople station some one discov-
cred that it was illegal to receive
"plants" from abroad.
"Yasak" lit is forbidden, said the
custom house.
"Yasak," echoed the sentry on duty.
The foreigner said whatever was
the equivalent to rubbish" and de-
manded the tree.
Here was a nice quandary for the
authorities. Evidently 1t was a most
fearful thing to receive a tree from
abroad, and yet the consignee was
capable Of getting some one into very
serious trouble If he did not get his
tree, and he said he must have it with
in forty eight hours.
Some one at the custom house scared
above the difficulty. The tree was sent
on to Stamboul on the Orient express,
an eight hours journey. 1t came back
to Adrianople by the next train. and
the person for whom 1t was intended
received a notice that "a tree from
COnstantinople" had arrived for him
and would at once be handed over
to his messenger.
So the wretched little Bulgarian tree
had become a Turkish one. brought
from Constantinople. and by that
means it satisfied offlcialdom and serv-
ed Its purpose in the end.
