t ACCIDENT.
Baroness de la Roche falls Eighty Feet
from al Aeroplane. The Baroness

Dying.
Rheims. July 8.-Baroness de la
Roche, the most noted woman aviator
of France, is dying today as the re-
suit OF the fall Of her aeroplane at
Bethany Plains.
The machine fell a distance of $40
feet. Both arms and both legs OF the
baroness were broken and she suf-
cred severe internal injuries. She
was rushed to the hospital, but the
physicians offer no hope for her re-
coyery.
The aeroplane was demolished. The
accident resulted from the pursuit OF
the baroness's machine by two other
a~yiators.
She had been flying for ten minutes
in the aerodrome, when two other
machines whirled along either side oil
the baroness's bi-plane. She became
confused and tried to alight. She
pulled the wrong lever, however, and
the aeroplane overturned and dashed
10 the ground.
Owing to the popularity Of the baron
ess, the accident occasioned intense
excitement. A score OF persons rushed
to her aid and drew her unconscious
form from the wreckage.
The baroness was a noted sports
woman and achieved fame as an auto
mobile driver, motorcycles and a horse
woman before taking up aviation last
October. She drove a powerful auto
mobile from Berlin to Madrid in a
nerve-racking ace and finished with
high honors.
Last January, on the very day that
Leon Delagrange was killed while fly
ing at Bordeaux, the baroness was in
jured in a flight at Mourmelon. She
received the news of Delagrange's death
a short time before she assembled and
suffered a nervous collapse while in the
air from thinking of her friends tragic
end.
The baroness made a flight at Hello
polls, near Cairo, Egypt, last February.

new way. For many years Dr.. Osler has
studied tuberculosis Of various sorts. and
he announces his conclusions very def

We have learned how to recognize the

I'VE have learned how successfully TO

I'VE know that the disease IS not he

forth these various points ar length. and

Virginia. or any Of the other Southern
States were legally received into the
Union under new constitutions after the
civil war.
Virginia was received as a State after
the war, with q new constitution, with
Alexandria lily and county as a part OF
her boundaries, and there IS no way that
any part of that territory can now be
taken from her The ancient question
Of whether the rerocession was original
Iy constitutional IS a mere academic
question and Of interest only as such.
Few Alexandrtans seriously consider
the matter, but are practically all op-
posed 10 being taken back into the Dis
trict, II such were possible"
Attorney Gardner L. Boothe said he
had no opportunity to give it more than
a cursory examination, and would not
Ike to express an opinion. Apart from
any legal aspect OF the case, Il seems 70
me" he said, that condition Of affairs
which has been allowed 20 exist for a
period Of siXty-four years with the full
acquiescenCe Of the United States govern

Attorney James R Cation stated that he

it had become a political question and
could not be passed upon by the Supreme
Court.

field glasses at the west end of the
stand never lost sight Of the Frenchmar

when the puffy wind blew his machine
dangerously near the high tension power
wires in field north Of the concourse.
The American had gone aIoft at las
o'clock 10 try an endurance flight He
found the wind in the upper air rather
strong, and descended to lower plane.
He swerved from over the field, and
some lower catspaws caught him. With
mastery maneuvers. Hamilton worked
his biplane away from its dangerous
position and returned to the course. He
was forced to abandon the trial

and conditions were ideal for flights
Lieut. Paul W Beck. [. S. A, made
an ascent with Paulhan. He threw five
dummy be#abs from a height of 300 feet

forty miles an hour, the feat was thought
remarkable Hillary Beachy made the
first fight in the CHILDISH machine. The
biplane had never before been aloft and
the fight was successful.
The Paulhan machine went down the
course, and Beachy, who was reversing,
was forced to the center of the field
where he alighted safely, despite the fact
that his biplane was slightly damaged by
striking rough ground.
Paulhan took Clifford Harmon, Of New
York. for trip TO Venice, on Santa
Monica Bay shore The trip was made
just at sunset. and on the return the
aeroplane landed in front Of the grand
stand Just at dusk.
Hamilton attained height of 1900 feet,
but owing to a slight difficulty with the
engine, landed just a minute before Paul
han returned from the sea. The moon
had risen and the aeroplane cast a shadow
over the grand stand and several thou
sand persons who had remained.

ties for performing such operations The

Western High School debaters defeated
the Technical High School team yester-

question whether employers should be
held responsible for accidents TO work

loW-workmen. They were upheld in their
contention that no law should be enacted
