gested that the theatrical managers send a

before the Legislature and urge the passage
Of the bill permitting children on the stage.
He also said it was suggested by mem
Der of the Legislature present at the con-

Thomas Fortune Ryan Has Offered

By Associdted Press.

By Associated Press
New York, Oct. 27.-Such are the
caprices of October weather that
Ralph Johnstone and Arch Hoxey of
the Wright team of aviators, went up
for altitude at Belmont park this af-
ternoon and brought down the record
of the day for distance.
The fifth day of the international
aviation meet opened full of promise
and closed in a bowling wester that
filled the air with whirling autumn
leaves, slammed down benches in the
grand stand. ripped out the canvass
screens that bar the view of those
who have not paid, but gather to
gaze; and sent such a furious line
of dust devils dancing around the
track that flare lamps had to be
lighted outside the hangers for the
machinests to find their way about.
1t was furious end to day of post
ponements, disappointments and scat
tered feats of the most daring airman-
ship that have yet been shown to an
American crowd.
Officially, flights for the Gordon
Bennett elimination trials, to pick an
American team which shall defend the
international trophy won at Rheims
last year by Glenn H. Curtiss, open
ed at 9 o'clock this morning, but no.
body cared to come out for them in
the wind that was blowing.
At half past one o'clock the special
prize OF $4,000 offered by Thomas
Fortune Ryan for a flight from that
field to the statue of liberty and re.
turn, was open to any aviator, but
none of them dared try.
They chose to take advantage in
stead, of the latest largesse allowed
them by the committee-permission to
o'clock any afternoon during the
meet, provided only that they should
finish before $50. That narrowed the
program to one hourly event for dis
tance and altitude. Latham, Hoxey
and Johnstone were the only ones to
brave a gale of from twenty to twen-
ty-five miles an hour. 1t was stiff 60
ing. Johnstone and Hoxey tried to
initiate the gull. to set their wings
and soar into the gale, without ef-
fort. but they showed the way of
an eagle in the air. is still one Of the
things man does not understand.
They kept their poise beautifully,
but although the speed of the biplane
they were flying is nominally thirty
five miles an hour. and their engines
were running wide open, they were
pushed steadily out of view and down
over the edge of the horizon. The
upper gale they were iamming must
have been more than forty miles an
hour, but neither was willing to some
down before the other and they stuck
it out until forced to land by sheer
compulsion of the elements.
Both were driven miles off the
course. Word came from Hoxey first
that he had landed safely at Brent
wood, Long Island, about twenty-five
miles distant Johnstone, still resO-
lutte, stuck it out and was carried fifty
five miles, to Middle Island Village,

Quebec, Oct. 27.-Alan r. Hawley
and Augustus Post, the heroes of the
greatest balloon flight on record, ar
rived here tonight after an expert
ence that was more trying than ear
lier reports indicated, but nightly
pleased because the cup for which
they contested remains in America.
The first day after leaving the Am
erica II, on the banks Of the Peri
bonka river, Hawley's leg was injured
so badly that he was laid up for sew
eral hours, and he has not yet en-
tirely recovered.
The arrival of the aeronauts here
was made the occasion of the first
formal welcome back to civilization of
the men who for several days were
thought to be lost in the dense forests
of northern Canada.
Gebhardt Willrich, the American
consul, and several prominent men
of the city met the party this even
ing and escorted them to the Hotel
Frontenac, where an informal dinner
was given in their honor. After rest
ing until II o'clock, Hawley and Post
resumed the journey to New York.
There never was time," said
Hawley tonight, when l considered
that our lives were actually in dan
ger, but our supply of food was very
short, and l consider that we were
very fortunate in reaching Jacques
Maltais in the cabin in the woods
when we did Taken altogether, ii
was not a disagreeable experience by
any means, and best of all, the cup
for which we made the flight remains
at home"
From the data handed to Lewis
Spindler as representative of the Aero
club Of St. Louis and the accounts
of the journey given by Hawley and
Post tonight, it is plainly indicated
that America II was favored in catch
ing the eastward sweep of the gale

hold meeting this evening, which
they did, in the court house hall and
not withstanding the shortness of the
notice they spoke to literally pack
ed house.
Mr.. Johnson in his address, fully
and satisfactorily answered the
charge of Gov. Burke in attempting to
mislead the people, stating If he,
Johnson, is elected, he will be control
ed by Alex Mckenzie. His entire ad-
dress was a clean made, straight
forward statement and was accepted
as such by at least large majority
of the audience, upon whom he made
a most favorable impression.
Gov. Devine made the principal ad-
dress and his analysis Of Gov. Burke's
official acts, especially the one of ap-
pointing United States senator con-
trary to the express will of the re-
publican voters and equally the ex-
pressed will of the democratic vot-
ers, thus ignoring the $4,000 votes
Tom Marshall received and the 5000
that Cashel received, was especially
telling. His reference to Bryan thrice
repudiated by the republicans of the
nation and equally so by the thought
ful, conservative democrat arriving
in this state and telling republicans
where to head in and how to vote on
the governorship question, opened the
eyes of republicans who heard him,
to what the democrats of this state
are attempting to do.
1t was a good address and republi-
cans went home determined to stand
for their principals and hight out their
battles within their party instead of
voting the democratic ticket and al
lowing the party of Bryan and Burke
and 16 to 1 to do it for them, and
abide by the results Of the primar-
les as expressed by the vote of June
29th.

Utica, N. Y, Oct. 27.-Roosevelt
spent his fifty-second birthday in the
thick of the fight for the republican
state ticket. 1t was rainy, dreary
day and Colonel Roosevelt had no
time to celebrate. He continued his
attacks on John Dix, democratic
Nominee for governor, whom he as
sailed in his speeches here tonight
more severely than ever.
The colonel also criticised Win
field A. Huppuch, chairman of the
democratic state committee; saying
that he was man who should not
be trusted.
Colonel Roosevelt was welcomed en-.
Enthusiastically by large crowds. He
spoke at Fonda, Johnstown, Glovers-
Vile, Amsterdam and Little Falls,
during the day, and returning made
two speeches here tonight.
On Mr.. Dix labor record, Roose-
welt said:
Last Sunday there appeared in
the New York American an address
written by Mr.. Hearst and read by
Mr.. Shearn. in which it was definite
ly alleged that Dix and his partners
employed hundreds of men in their
paper mills; that these men worked
twelve hours day for $1.G5, and
that when the other paper mills of
the country had given their men an
eight hour day and raised their WAGES
to over 50. that Mr.. Dix as a conces
sion raised the wages of the men
ten cents day and provided as an
Offset that they should work thirteen
hours for five days in the week and
twelve hours on the sixth. Mr.. Dix
has not denied these statements. Tn
less they were true he would have
denied them tn minute they we've
made.'
