SOME OF DREXEL' FEATS.
Mr.. DrexeI, who arrived on the Lusi-
tania last Thursday night, is the son or
Anthony Drexel and the brother of Miss
Margarita Drexel. who last June married
Viscount Maidstone, of London. He is not
an American in the sense that the virgins
or Brookins or Curtiss answer TO that de-
scription. for, although born in Philadel-
phia, he was schooled at Farnborough,
near Aldershot, and later went to the
famous Elton College, Windsor. where he

to fly must fly as though life and death
were equally attractive. Then you can fly
anywhere you like. III you think of dan
ger" says he. you're a dead man"
Drexel learned TO fly at Pau. At Bourne
mouth he beat Grahame-White, altogether
English, in nearly every event. He won,
next to Morane. the most prizes. At Lam
ark, Scotland, he established a worlds
height record-6.75O feet. When 5000 feet UP
his left side was paralyzed with intense
cold. but he kept on rising. He will try for

The Roosevelt Reception.

It is likely that the controversy over
Roosevelt's reception at New York
will be prolonged. When it is passed
there will be people to argue that It
should have been different. The origi-
nal idea seems to have been that his
home city and home state pay suitable
tribute to the ex-president and be
Joined by an adequate national rep
resentation. In point of fact, this pro-
gram in itself would bring into the
streets and squares immense crowds.
To provide for a national turnout,
with ceremonies to suit, a national oc-
casion would require more than one
day. and it may be doubted If New
York has the advantages for such a
celebration within a limited time.
Since preparation began the idea
seems to have grown that nothing
short of a national affair will do. That
might mean that organizations from
all over the Union should take part
in a parade to be reviewed by the ex-
president. 1t has been explained that
a parade to crafty all claiming equal
right to participate would require
twenty-four hours in passing a given
point. Such a demonstration is diff
cult to manage and likely to end in
deeper heartburnings than will re-
suit from a limited parade and brief
ceremonies. On the other hand, local
demonstrations would give the masses
a chance to hail the return of Roose-
welt. The Mckinley %obsequies were
marked by a national tribute. Every
city and town took part: The national
feeling could not be expressed in New
York even should 5000 organizations
mastering 100000 men assemble and
parade there.
