TROPHY IS WON
BY BALLOONISTS
NEW YORK LANDS SAFELY
AFTER LONG FLIGHT
Harmon and Harrison by SkiIlful
Handling of Big Bag Make
a Record of 79o
Miles
[speclal to The Herald. ]

AUSTIN, Ark, March 1.-Clifford b.
Harmon and his aid, George b. Har-
rison, who set out from San Antonio
In the balloon New York to beat the
long distance record, landed safely in
Lonoke county, Ark, 100 miles from
San Antonio, at o'clock this after
noon.
Only the most skillful handling of
the balloon secured such a distance, as
the balloonists fought strong adverse
winds for four hours in this state.
The course in Texas was maintained
from San Antonio to the extreme
northeasterly border, which was
reached nine hours after the start.
By this fight Harmon wins the
Lahm trophy.
The big bag will be shipped to San
Antonio presumably to await more ia
vorable weather for a second distance
flight.
The New York was sighted at Velo-
MIA, thirty miles southwest of Little
Rock, at noon today. After descend
ing sufficiently to permit of communi-
cation with those on the ground and
dropping a postal card to be mailed
to the starting point, the balloon re-
ascended, travelling slowly in a north
easterly direction. The balloon was in
sight for three hours, disappearing for
an hour and then coming to earth.

trains through the Cascade tunnel were
also swept from the tracks and carried
100 feet by the avalanche.
The mail and express train does not
carry passengers, and as it had been
stalled for several days it is thought nc
one was on board.
According to reports received here
there is eighteen feet Of snow at the
east end of the Cascade tunnel and
fifteen feet at the west end. Traffic is
at a standstill between Cut Bank and

EDUCATORS SPLIT OVER
QUESTION OF SMOKING

INDIANAPOLIS, March 1.-While
smiling young women school teachers

hail. where the department of super
intendence of the National Educational
association met today, offered the men
delegates cigars with the words,
Smoke on Mobile" in the hope of win
ming next years convention for the
Alabama city, the thousand educators
within doors enthusiastically ap-
plauded Horace H. Cummings of Salt
Lake City, who declared none of the
teachers in the high schools of his city
smoked.
Mr.. Cummings, in discussing Meth
DDS of Reducing Moral Truths to
Practice" said that the child is a doer
rather than thinker, and it's prime
instinct is for imitation. The moral of
a school or city whose teachers drink,
smoke, gamble or are insincere, the
speaker said, cannot be on a high

IMPERIAL LOSES
BOTH LICENSES
POLICE COMMISSION REv0KES
TWO PERMITS
Cafe on Broadway Declared to Have
Been Notorious All Over the
Coast-Second Blow
to Roster

The Imperial cafe, 242 South Broad
way, and the Imperial saloon, 24S
South Spring street, are without liquor
permits. Both these permits were re-
voked by the police commission last
night after hearing several witnesses
testify to the character of the I'm
perial cafe.
These witnesses testified that from
their own knowledge the place was a
resort for fallen women who openly
piled their calling in the restaurant,
and that the place had a bad reputa-
tion, as regards this feature, all over
Southern California.
This is the second time the heavy
hand of the police commission has
fallen on John Roster, proprietor of
the Imperial. About four years ago
he conducted the Del Monte tavern
on Third street, between Broadway
and Spring In connection with the
restaurant a number of private rooms
We're conducted on the second floor.
One night a party of young men and
women occupied one of these rooms.
All were in a jovial condition as a
result of many drinks served from
the restaurant below and one girl
danced on the table. While. dancing
she slipped and fell and injured her
self so severely that she died soon
afterward.
The incident aroused so much public
Indignation that Owen McAleer, who
then was mayor, and his police COM
mission inquired into the case. Evil
dence of such a damaging character
was produced against the. place that
the commission revoked the Del Monte
restaurant liquor permit The Del
Monte struggled along without a per-
NIT for several months, but without
success, as patrons of the place de-
manded liquor. Roster & Lonergan
then bought the Imperial. Mr.. Loner-
gan retired from the firm about a
year ago and Mr.. Roster has conduct
ed IL ever since

PHILADELPHIA, March 1-With
the withdrawal today of the last de-
tachment of state police on duty mere
and the discharge from strike service
of the State Fencibles, the city gave
up the last evidence or martlal law
that has existed since the car men
strike began seven days ago.
To fill the place of the state troopers
a special cavalry force was organized
bv the city authorities. Until late
hour not one act Of disorder had been
reported in any section of the city
interest centered today in efforts TO
induce the philadelphia Rapid Transit
company to listen to proposals of ar
bitration. After special metlng OF
the board of directors the company
again announced there would be no
arbitration.
Hopes for Settlement
c. o. Pratt, leader of the striking
trolley men, however, says he still
hopes for a satisfactory settlement Of
the differences before the sympathetic
strike becomes effective Saturday.
Declaring that it would be better
for the members of the Ministerial as
sociation to preach order and peace
to their parishioners than to adopt
resolutions favoring arbitration, Mayor
Reyburn today reiterated his oppo-
sition to submitting the differences be-
tween the company and the strikers to
outside parties.
The mayor said, while he is repre-
sentative of the city on the board of
directors of the company, he need not
necessarily follow instructions given
by councils, because that body did not
elect him.
Councils can only instruct its rep
resentatives what to do" he said.
1.-TWO men represent councils on the
board That does not affect me. be-
cause councils do not elect the mayor.
He is a representative of the city by
virtue of his office. And If the three
city representatives attended that
board meeting and voted for arbitra-
ton, they would find seven or eight
others opposed to them"
"Do you mean that those seven or
eight directors are opposed to arbi-
tration?'
st certainly do mean that. They will
never consent to arbitration. And I
agree with them. These men will not
permit the 1000 or more loyal employees
who stood by the Rapid Transit COM
pany in this crisis to be punished"
"But will not such an attack force
the threatened general striker"
'I don't know about that, but if it
is coming, it will have to come. 1
don't know any way to stop it,"
George H. Earle. one of the city's
representatives. on the transit board,
said: "The real difficulty in this mat
ter is not to get peace. but permanent
peace. The greatest difficulty is that
while the company is permanent
body the union is a shifting one. and
nothing done with it amounts to much
if the men change or are persuaded
to change their minds"
President C. o. Kruger reiterated the
refusal of the company to consider
arbitration in any form.
Director Clay of the department of
public safety said he would be fully
prepared to protect the city in event
of a general strike Saturday

BRIGHT'S DISEASE

Late estimates on the percentage
Of recoveries under the new emollient
treatment for Brights Disease are as
follows:
Where patient rs much weakened
and crises may be expected IN from
i've 10 ten days. probably not more
than 10 per cent 10 20 per cont re-
cover. Where physicians aid with ef-
forts TO restrain fatal symptoms this
percentage is increased In cases
where patients have from thirty to
sixty DAYS OF life the efficiency Is very
much higher
Where patients do not wait until
bed-ridden probably three-fourths
yield.
And in cases that take the new
emolllent treatment on the appear
ance OF the disease nearly nine out OF
ten respond.
Albumen Casts and dropsy do not
prevent recovery. The point Is that
