crowd of Spectators here last night their

The wind was blowing very hard when
Mr.. Grahame- White first appeared. but after
twenty minutes wait the aviator said he
was ready. and jumped into his seat When
he attained a height of 160 feet Grahame-

distance being little over a mile He

The election of Mr Perry was a COM
piete surprise. He had not been prom

the convention began ballOting early III the
afternoon about twenty names were sub
mitted. The first ballot taken showed that
DR.. Fiske, the Rev. DR.. Leighton Parks,
rector of St Bartholomews Church. New

Philippines, were the leading candidates
Bishop Brents name was then withdrawn
by Rathbone Gardner, who said that the

that the Red Cross desires 10 have them

dead letter office of the PostofiCe was
packed with missives bearing only the Red
Cross stamps. Many ignorant persons and
some not so ignorant believed that the
seals prepaid postage About forty millions
of them were printed last year, and the
sum realized amounted to about S250,Oo1-
