Enthusiasm Aroused.
These rich prizes are arousing as great
enthusiasm for aviation In this country
as has been manifested in France where
Reroplanes are almost as common as au-
tomobnes.
Even the Wright brothers, who here
tofore have held aloof from contests, n
dictate a desire 10 enter for the flight be-
tween New York and St Louis. Glenn

the new prizes, as will Cliff Harmon,

achievements 70 his credit than any

zion OF Glenn Curtiss, may bring over
his Farnam biplane with which he won

don TO Manchester, and go after the big
stakes on this side
Paulhan was so disguised with his
recent trip to this country that he an
nOunced that he had had enough Of
America, but the latest word from
