FLIES ACROSS
CHANNEL IN FOG

DOVER England, May 21.-For
the second time within year the
English channel was crossed today
by an aeroplane, and again the honor
rests with France. Count Jacques de
Lesseps, a grandson of the late Fer
dinand de Lesseps, the celebrated
French engineer, driving monoplane
of the same model at that with which
Louis Bleriot conquered the straits
July 25th last, duplicated his country
mans feat in dense fog today, start
ing at Calais and landing safely at
WINSTON Court farm. Fifty minutes
were consumed in the journey. Bile
riots time was 80 minutes.
De Lesseps intended making the trip
from Calais to Dover and return with
out alighting, in an effort to win the
Ruinart prize of $500, but the mist
compelled him to descend. He expects
to resume his flight at daylight,
Leaving Calais amid the cheers CT
an immense crowd, the aviator sent
his monoplane up to height of 400
feet ana then headed it in the direction
of Dover. When scarcely a mile out
from the French coast the Scarabee,
as the monoplane is known, was lost
to sight from the torpedo boat destroy
er Escopette, which was racing under
meath it to render aid should the avia-
tor and his machine fall.
De Lesseps' only means of reckon
ing his whereabout were the rays OF
the sun, which dimly penetrated the
banks of fog in which he was en-
shroudeG. He determined to keep on
however and in order to avoid
the possibilities of colliding with the
cliffs of Dover, he sent the monoplane
to height of 1000 feet, at the same
time keeping it pointed in the direc-
ton in which he believed the English
coast lay.
The Frenchman's courage soon was
rewarded by the sight of the gray
cliffs Immediately beneath him. There
he stopped the whirring motor and lei
the machine glide to earth, landing
without mishap at the WINSTON Court
form, a mile inland and midaw be
tween Dover and Deal.
Few saw the intrepid AVIATOR come
to the ground, for, when the news
was flashed from Calais that De Les
seps had started, the crowds assemb
led on the field where Bleriot de
scended in his epoch-making flight
expecting that the new seeker for
scross-channel honors would choose
the same spot. That was what De
Lesseps intended to do had not the
fog interfered.

HAMMERING AWAY ON
THE BOOTH ESTATE

HI. b. Lind has three shifts of men ai
work on the Booth, driving crosscut
to the east from the old Durgan shaft,
at the 36O-foot level. Owing to the
nature OF the ground it was deemed
advisable to start work IN crosscut
to the west of the shaft, some yards
out from the shaft, and swing the eus
al ound the shaft to the east side. THIS
has been completed, and now the cn'
is headed due east, after the ked TOP
vein. which Mr.. Lind and associates
believe to be that direction.
Steady work is in progress IN the
ground of the Booth Leasing company
controlled by Arthur Weber OF Gold
field and Messrs. Reese and McLaugh
lin Of Lincoln, Neb. The drift 1ion,
tho vein to the north is still being sen
in. The face OF the drift is now in
.horsen or fault, and is barren. Thi
formation will be cut through to Sc
what laws on the other side.
The Goldfield news. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1904-1911, 1910-02-26

The drift on the 125-foot level Is be-
ing extended, and the formation is get
ting more regular and better values
showing. A few days ago quite
bunch of the brown and blue ore, for
which the mine was famous in the early
days of the camp, was found in the
drift. and altogether the signs are most
encouraging. The property is we'll
