AUGUSTUS POST DlSCARDS
AUTOMOBILE FOR BIPLANE
UnIuCky with Airship, Friends Say
WhiSkers Interfere

NEW YORK, Sept. 2.-Augustus
Post, having failed to find sufficient
excitement in automobiling or balloon
ing, has taken to the air with Curtiss
biplane, or at least he has endeaVored
to take to the air several times, but
so far about all that he has accom-
plished has been to wreck several ma
chimes.
Post has gained fame as a driver of
autos and as daring balloonist, but
it can hardly be said that he is quail
fed as pilot of heavier than air craft.
The fact that he is the only aviator
to wear beard has caused his friends
to assert that the only reason he fails
to leave Mother Earth when he sets
the propellers of his machine going is
because of the whiskers.
Post declares that he will finally
learn to soar and when he does his
teachers expect some wonderful flights,
as he is known to be most enthu-
siastic pupil and deeply interested in
mans effort to conquer the air. He
has thrilled his watchers several
times by attempting flights while other
ayiators feared to ascend, and on one
occasion his machine ran away"
smashing fences, posts and finally
landing ip heap at Sheepshead Bay
race track.

AviatorS Assembled for Nine-Day
Contest Which Promises to

BOSTON, Sept. 2.-All the hustle and

apparent early today on the Harvard
aviation field at Atlantic, where the
nine days aeroplane contests of the
first Harvard Boston aero meet will
begin tomorrow. Graham White and
A. V. Roe of England, the Wright
brothers, Glenn II. Curtiss, Clifford B.
Harmon, Augustus Post and other
aviators are present. Interest is mani
tested in the showing Of the Wright

believed the Wrights have a surprise
In store for the ayiators of the world,
as well as for the spectators at Attain
tic in the new model biplane, which
Brookins will use tomorrow.
Secret flights have been made, and
it is claimed Wilbur Wright is elated
at the performances, and 1t Is not i'm
probable that he will be seen in the
chassis himself before the meet is over,
contending against Mr.. Curtiss, who
has declared that he will make his last
flights aloft at the Boston meet.

tspeelal to The Heraldl

SACRAMENTO, Sept. 2.-Aviation
at night a gigantic aeroplane rushing
through the air, racing with an auto
mobile in the glare of a gigantic
searchlight; this is new feature that
has been added to the program for the
Fiesta of the Dawn of Gold, at cost
of $50OO
Charles K. Hamilton, the daring avia-
tor and the most sensational aerial per-
former in America, arrived in Sacra-
mento yesterday afternoon with two
aeroplanes, one a 60-horse power ma
chine and the other 115-horse power
1.-THE conditions here for making
flights are perfect said Hamilton last
night, "and / think l can give you
something in the way of new records
that will be worth telegraphing and
cabling around the world"
Hamilton came back with an offer to
ing of the executive committee of the
Fiesta of the Dawn of Gold last night
when the subject of night flights was
brought up following a suggestion that
some entirely original feature in the
way of aviation would be very accept
able TO the fiesta committee.
Hamilton came back with a offer to
make flights at night. His proposition
is to race with a fast automobile ten
times around the track at Agricultural
park, keeping his biplane about twenty
five feet above the ground and with a
searchlight trained on 1t. He agrees
that in the final lap he will shoot
ahead of the auto, and dropping to the
ground make a sensational finish just
ahead of the buzz car in front of the
grandstand. Hamilton says these night
fights have never been attempted on
account of the danger attached, with
the exception of trial fight which he
made at Nashville, Tenn, for the
United States government and for
which he received a handsome diamond
studded medal.
Those flights will be made every
night during the. fiesta, beginning with
Saturday night, September 8. The daily
exhibitions will begin Monday morning
at 10 o'clock, according to the original
contract between Hamilton and the
fiesta committee. The exhibitions at
night will prove one of the most thrill
ing and sensational stunts ever pulled
off and will undoubtedly attract thou
sands of spectators to the fair grounds
on each occasion. The flights will take
place at p. m, Immediately preceding
.he big fireworks exhibition.

were some of the largest and most
modern hotels, equipped in magnificent
style. The sharp competition existing
between , these establishments, the
heavily increased cost in maintaining
them, and the generally unfavorablo
economic conditions are given as the
chief causes Of these failures. The
guests who come for a cure by means
of the well-known mineral waters have
not increased in number. nor has their
expenditure of money counterbalanced
the increased number of hotels and

there was a decrease of II per cent.
Other country districts have so far
shown but little better. The only con-
clusions to be drawn from these fig
ureS are:
First, that our home increase Of pop
ulation is rapidly falling; second, that
the cities are not only absorbing the
immigrant population, but are drawing
heavily from the rural districts; third,
that at the present rapid decline in in
ternal increase it will be but another
decade before, except with the aid of
immigration, we will show positive
decline in population.
OF course, it is barely possible that
the estimate of 90,o0OO00 may prove
incorrect and that our population may
show up 10O,0O0,OO0. But the calcula-
tions have been scientifically made and
returns so far have borne out the ex-
perts.
