WILL PROTEST DREXEL'S
RECORD FOR ALTITUDE
Wright Agent Says Conditions MOI
Complied With

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 24.-Thomas
2. Jackson, one of the representatives
of the Wright brothers on the Pacific
coast and who is in San Francisco ne
gotiating with a local committee for
flights by the Wright team on the av-
iation meet to be held in this city in
January, declared tonight that the
Wrights would protest to the Aero Club
of America against the acceptance Of
the flight of J. Armstrong DreXel in
Philadelphia yesterday as the worlds
record altitude flight.
"While not questioning Mr. DreXels
Veracity in the matter" said Jackson,
"the fact remains that he did not COM
ply with the conditions required for
record flights and l do not think that
his figures of 1870 feet will be accepted
by the Aero Club Of America as an Off
cial record. 1t is the intention of the
Wright flyers to enter a protest against
the record being allowed to stand offi-
ciaUy.
"The conditions for official records
require that the flight must be made
within sight of the judges and that the
aviator must land where he started
from, or at least near the starting
point Mr.. Drexel landed twenty-five
miles away.
"Ralph Johnstone, who was killed in
Denver two weeks ago, held the official
altitude record and as a matter of 10y
atty to him. if for no other reason, we
are going to protest against the rec
ord being given to Mr., DreXel unless
he makes a fight complying with the
official requirements as did Mr.. John
stone"

MRS. SAGE PLANS MODEL
TOWN FOR NEAR POOR
PhiIanthropist to Spend Millions
on City for Persons of
Moderate Means

NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-Preliminary
plans of the Russell Sage foundation,
established by Mrs. Sage as memorial
to her husband for the establishment
of a model suburban city, providing
healthful and beautiful homes for per-
sons of moderate means, were announc-
ed today.
Briefly, the project is to utilize a
tract of 412 acres in Forest Hills Gar
dens, Long Island, nine miles from New
York city, laying out town for 150O
families.
The initial financial expenditures for
the purpose, it is announced, now
amount to $2,25OO0 How much more
will be needed to carry the plans to
completion is not known, but the foun-
dation trustees state that Mrs. Sage
is prepared to supply all the funds re-
quired to carry out her ideas.
Through today's announcement it is
made plain that the enterprise is not a
charity but is to be made self support
ing and is to yield fair return on the
investment. Its purpose is to enable
persons in moderate circumstances to
own their own homes at minimum
cost but amid ideal surroundings.
TOWN FOR POOR LATER
The minimum cost of paying for a
home there, it is estimated will be $25
a month, including principal and in
terest.
For the present, labOring men whose
wages are small will not benefit direct-
ly from Mrs. Sage's enterprise. The
cost of land in Forest Hill, it is ex-
planned, precludes provision for the
working class. Intimation that they
will be cared for later, however, is
given in the trustees statement.
Forest Hills Gardens is to be made
a "real spotless town." as nearly as
money and skill can make it. 1t has
been laid out by a landscape gardener
and its architectural development will
be scrutinized by an expert. Applica-
tions for homes will have to submit to
examinations as to their character and
antecedents.
The present plans contemplate the
opening of the model town early next
year.

CALLS ON CHURCH TO
MEET ADVANCE OF WORLD
Minister Says: Don't Face En-
Iarqinq Intellect with Force

LONG BEACH, Nov. 24-The duties and
obligations of the Christian churches formed
the theme of the Rev. Henry Kendall
Booths Thanksgiving sermon, delivered be-
fore an audience which crowded the new
Presbyterian church this morning. The Rev.
o. H. L. Mason, pastor of the Presbyterian
church, presided The Rev. T. c. Bradford
the Rev. George II. Lehigh, the Rev. Henry
l. Rasmus, the Rev. George W. F. Dixon and
the Rev. Charles E. Hiatt also participated
in the service, while other local ministers
acted ushers.
To-day the church stands by the shore OF
a mighty deep-a vast sea, horizoned SEEM
ingly only by inhnty," said the Rev. Mr.
Booth. 1--WE are living in a wonderful age,
in a time of the largest vision, largest knowi-
edge and largest opportunity ever known in
human history.
LET us this morning face this expansion
of modern life and thought. The sea of
larger knowledge has no dangers for Chris
tianlty. The church has everything to gain
and nothing to lose by frank facing of the
facts of modern knowledge and a serious
attempt to answer the questions 1t propounds
to faith. Let us no longer meet the enlarg-
ing intellectual life of our day with opposition
or timidity,"

Eighty-seven little hearts were made glad
through the kindness OF Al Levy, who played
host to the klddlss of the Jewish orphans
home at a delightful Thanksgiving feast in
the big dining room OF his cafe yesterday af-
ternoon.
At each place at the big table, which was
decorated profusely with carnations, was an
American nag, which each child proudly bore
home 1t seemed as though they had never
eaten such good turkey and cranberry sauce,
and there was a fine lot Of IL, too There was
soup and mashed potatoes and tartlets and all
the goodies that boy or girl could ever de-
sire.
bers of the Miranda band, hearing OF the
party, came in and played several selections.
When the feast was over all the omldreh
went to Mr. Levy to tell him how much they
enioyed the feast. One Of the walters who
had spread the bread for several OF the little

WILL BURN POORHOUSE
AS HOLIDAY PASTIME
MontCIair N. j., People to De-
stroy $4,000 Structure

NEW YORK. Nov. 24-Citizens of
Montclair, N. j., will be entertained
some time in the Christmas holidays
by a $4,000 bonfire, the material for
which will be provided by the town
poorhouse and its contents.
The poorhouse stands on knoll north
of town, and is to be abandoned next
week, when its thirteen inmates will
be transferred to the Orange poorhouse.
The building is on a park tract which
the Essex county park commission de-
sires to improve and the commission re-
Gently requested the town to remove
ii. The town authorities, however,
decided the best method of disposal is
by incineration. 1t was feared the
house, having long sheltered the sick
and decrepit, might contribute to the
spread of contagion.
The bonfire will be under the super
vision of the MOntclair fire department,
which will have lines of hose stretched
to prevent the possible spread of the
flames.

.DREXEL LOSES HIS WAY
DURING AERIAL JAUNT
Grahame-Whi Goes Searching
the Clouds at Philadelphia
for Rival Aviator

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 24.-Follow-
ers of aviation in Philadelphia were
kept busy today watching the fortunes
of j. Armstrong Drexel, who yesterday
established a new worlds altitude rec
ord, and of Claude Grahame-White,a an
English aeroplanist, who brought to a
close a series of successful exhibitions
at the Point Breeze race track.
DreXel again proved to be the star
attraction. He attempted to fly back
from Orland to Philadelphia in the
same Bleriot moncplane in which he
reached a height of 1870 feet yesterday
He became lost and was forced to land
at Trenton Junction, four miles from
Trenton, n. j. Orland is about thirteen
miles from Philadelphia but Drexel in
his flight of one hour and ten minutes
Travelled twenty mites.
DreXel landed because of a shortage
of gasoline. He mistook the Delaware
river for the SchLylkill and Travelled
north instead of south.
WHITE SEEKS FRIEND
Claude Grahame-White and several
thousand persons were awaiting DreXel
at Point Breeze and when word, which
proved to be untrue. was received that
the former was coming down the river,
White arose in one of his machines and
sailed up the river to meet him. This
gave hundreds of persons whose homes
are south and west of Philadelphia a
thrill. After his descent word of Drex-
els landing was received.
White gave several exhibition flights
today and on one Of his trips took aloft
General James Allen, chief signal Of
ficer Of the United States army.
General Allen was taken around the
field several times at height of sew
eral hundred feet. He was. so much
at ease that he was taken for a trip
over the Philadelphia navy yard, which
is about a mile from Point Breeze.

boys shoulder and told him 20 disre-
gard the influences of evil associates
there and come out man,
I'll try to-" said the boy as the tears
gwelled to his eyes. "But ] will never
give up the girl. No court on earth
can make me do that and she will
