CURTIss WINS $40, 900 PRIZE
Flies From Albany to New York in
His Airship, 1877 Miles.

Glenn H. Curtiss, the American
aviator, speeded down the air lanes
from ALBANY to Manhattan Island,
Monday, doing 1877 miles in 152 min
utes, better time than any limited on
the New York Central ever made,
and limiteds don't loaf. He not only
won the $40, 200 prize offered by
the New York World, but he made
an international record for sustained
speed and surpassed all records for an
aerOplane in long-distance flight.
There were times when his little
biplane, which is only half as big as
Paulhan's famous flyer, split the air
at more than a 0-mile-an- hour clip,
and his average speed was 81. 06 mile
an hour. The winds were good to
Curtiss and finer day for beating
space and time could not have been
picked from the calendar. The start
was from Albany at 7.O3 O'Clock in
the morning, under weather condi-
tions as near perfect as the most
fastidious aviator could demand. One
hour and % minutes later he had
made his stopping place near Pough-
keepsie, there there was an hour s
intermission. Resuming his flight
at 1926 he sped southwark and landed
within the boundary of Manhattan
Island at 1926. Only 100 yards north
of the point on which his craft settled
stretched Spuyten Duyvil Creek,
separating Manhattan Island from
the mainland. Had he failed to
cross chis his flight would have been
in vain, but as he swept "ver it, the
prize was his. Thence to Cover
nOr's Island his task was but a whim
of triumph and the concluding lap of
race already won. Paulhan' s
flight from London to Manchester
1876 miles exceeded the Curtiss feat
of Monday in distance, but not in
speed and danger. The Frenchman' S
average was 443 miles an hour.

MONEY BACK
Trimmed Card Sharp Trio With
Loaded Dice and Dined
Well.

4 few weeks ago three card sharps
arrived here from San Francisco on
the Pacific Mail liner Mongolia. They
were spotted on board by the captain
and some of the passengers and after
an effort 20 get into poker or bridge
games they gave up and betook them
selves to the steerage section. There
they cleaned out Honolulu Portuguese
young man, who told another Homo
lulan that the trio had trimmed him for
800. The story was printed IN The
Advertiser after the arrival OF the
Mongolia.
The Portuguese, however, decided
that he wanted his money back. He
aseertained that the trio had given up
trying to fleece lambs in Honolulu and
that they were going back on an early
steamer. He booked for the same YES
sci and confded in a friend that he in
tended doing the fleeing this time if
he had TO match their loaded dice with
others equally as good, or better. APP
parentIy MS were better, according to
the following letter received from him
yesterday in the Sierra mail:
"Oakland, Cal, Sept. 6, 1910.
Il followed those sharp gamblers
and played them with loaded iices,

better to keep out. | had a better din

find DIAMOND that
Weighs 1871 CARATS

New York, July 23.-A fine white
diamond weighing 191 carats and
worth s150,OO0 uncut is the latest find
at the Premier mine in South Africa,
according to advices which reached
Maiden Lane dealers this week. The
stone is described as absolutely flaw
less, measuring two inches long by
about three-fourths of an inch thick.
1t tapers in breadth from IA to 3-4
inches.
A Maiden Lane expert said, that
judging from the description of the
uncut stone, the largest perfect dia-
mond that could be cut from it would
be pear-shaped. The finished stone
will probably rank among the worlds
famous gems. When cut the diamond
should be worth at least 100000.

PROF. ". |. HUTCHINSON
WILL BE In charge
Plan Is To Have Institute To Last
One Week, And an Exhaustive Effort
To Secure a Good Attendance Of
Farmers Will be Made.

Special Agent Hearst of the ag-ioul-
tural department has received letter
from Prof. w. l.. Hutchinson, director
Of farmers institutes in Mississippi,
stating that an institute for Forrest
county will be held in Hattiesburg,
some time during the month of Au-
gust.
The movement for a farmers in
stitute for this county was inaugural
ed some time ago by the Hattiesburg
Com ule. .cial Club and was assisted by
Mr.. Hearst, who has worked up con-
siderable sentiment among the farm
ers in favor of it.
The Commercial Clubs plan was for
a two-day institute, the second day to
be taken up by an inspection of the
state experiment farm at Mcneil. Mr.
Hearst, however, is of the opinion
that a two-day session would be of
comparatively little value to the
farmers, as but limited number
could attend, while a six-day session
would allow a discussion of a wider
range of subjects and nearly every
farmer in the county could attend on
at least one day of the six.
Farmers of the county are sard to
be very much interested in the pro-
posed institute, and it is hoped to ar
range for course which will prove
of unusual benefit to them. Promi-
nent specialists in different depart
ments of agriculture will take part in
the discussions, and it is believed that
Mr.. Hearst's application for a six-day
session will be granted.

CITY and COUNTY
MAY Cooperate
State Law Provides a Tax On All
Dogs, And Failure to Pay Tax is
Punishable by Death of .he Dog
Many Worthless CANNES.

1t is stated on good authority that
the county and city may cooperate
in the work OF exterminating all
worthless dogs, and that the matter
will be taken up and disposed of at
the next meeting of the board Of SUI
pervisors.
For several years past the city has
enforced it's dog ordinance during tie
summer months, as recult Of which
many valueless CANNES have been
sent to tho happy hunting ground.
This year, however, the board of al
dermen have had some difficulty in
securing the services of dog catch
err" and as consequence the law
which prohibits the running at large
of dogs, unless they are properly
muzzled, has not yet been put in force.
Since the last legislature enacted
law providing for tax on all dogs,
and empowering the authorities to kill
such animals as were delinquent for
taxes it has been suggested that
the county and city might cooperate
very effectually in enforcing the law.
The suggestion which it is said will
be made to the board of supervisors
is for the city to agree to cremate all
animals killed by the county, and to
bear the expense of hauling the car
cases to the crematory. The county
is to furnish the dog catcher" and
do the work for both city and county.
1t is believed that if the county
should be rid of its large surplus of
worthless dogs, the sheep-raising in
dustry, which was once the most
profitable business in this section,
would again become popular, as it
was abandoned because of the fact
that owners of fiocks had no protec-
tion watever against worthless dogs
which killed sheep by the hundreds,
rendering the business Improbable.
This, it is said, will be the principal
argument advanced in favor of strict
it is believed that the suggestion of
cooperation between the city and
county would result favorably to all
parties concerned
