NEW YORK, March 25.-1n celebration
Of it's splendid triumphs in winning the
two championship trophies OF the world
during the last year. the Aero Club OF
America held it's fourth annual banquet
at the st. Regis last night.
Among the two hundred guests present
were many business and professional men
who have become interested in aeronau-
tics, and in the speeches many prophe
cies were made concerning the develop
ment OF aerial navigation in the near
future.
that has been done by foreign govern
ments. especially Germany, in equipping
themselves with the most modern and eff
fective aids to warfare supplied by the
developments of aeronautics. He said
that the United States has done prac.
tically nothing, and its shipping in all
Its great harbors, as well as valuable
property in vast amount elsewhere, would
be at the mercy Of martial aeronautic
attack by other powers better supplied.
The only way to fight airships is in the
air, he said and 1t has been completely
established that no terrestrial armament
can be effective for defense against
them.
To make the martial arm Of this gov
eminent ready to meet in the air the at
tacks which others can today bring
against it, he said, must necessarily be
a work Of careful and rather slow up
building. consultation and employment OF
aeronauts and engineers. and the train
ing Of a corps for such work.
mo adequate means can De quickly
supplied in an emergency to meet such
needs" he said. In concluding he sug-
gested that the assemblage he addressed
was in the imperial city, and New York
would honor itself and aid Its country
nv forcing and fostering the development
of the new and important science OF aero
nautics.
After the speeches a series Of moving
pictures was shown, illustrating the most

realistic representation Of battle In

AGED LOVERS FIGHT DUEL
NONAGENARIANS CONTEST FOR
WIDOWS AFFECTIONS.
Each Combatant Wounded, But
Honor Not Satisfied-Another
Bout in Prospect.

ST. PETERSBURG. March 25.-Two
ancient fire eaters, both on the verge OF
the grave. have fought a duel at Nikolsk
Ussorski. and, although both were
wounded, their bloodthirstiness is not yet
stated. Prince subaloff. ninety-one years
old. and Wjarjanin, ninety-three years
old, a member of a noble family, were
the combatants. They are the owners OF
adjoining estates, and had been good
friends for half century.
Lately they were in the habit OF
meeting daily at the residence OF Nine.
Deiansky, an attractive widow OF forty
wears. and this proved the undoing OF
their friendship.
Each INDUCES in Sarcasm.
Prince subaloff the other day called
Wiarianin an empty headed coxcomb and
declared he ought to know better than
fiirt with a young woman when he had
one leg in the grave. Wjarjanin retorted
that he was young enough to avenge an
Insult. and a duel was arranged. 1t was
ARRANGED at first that they should night
with the swords they used as omcers IN
the Russo-Turkish war, but these were
found to be too heavy Tor tneH strehsth'
so pistols were chosen.
Prince Subaloffs right thumb was snO'
away on the first fire. he promptly
transferred the pistol to his left hand
and lodged q bullet in his opponents
shoulder. Then the seconds stopped the
duel and had the irascible nonagenarians
taken home and put to bed, where they
are recovering
Each insists that his honor is not sat
isfied and they will fight again.

terminating the young. the ultimate ruin
of the home and the soul, therefore
BE it resolved, That we commend The

our help to drive them out.
Mrs Haines severely arraigned the
lawbreaking saloon keepers who, she
declared 'have been caught in their
vampire work. and In order to escape
the well merited punishment of an out
ragged community now plead present
obedience to the law SO that they may
live to repeat their work when public
sentiment has been allayed."
Arrangements were made for a moth
ers' meeting at headquarters April 20.

authority. that Judge Daniel Grinnan,
of Richmond. holds a check, signed in
blank by Mrs. o. II. p. Belmont, of
New York, TO be filed in and used for
whatever funds are necessary in fight
ing IN the courts TO prevent the Ma
sonic lodge of this city from using the
site of the old burying ground for the
erection of the national Masonic
memorial to Washington.
This check is said to have been re-
ceived some time ago by Judge Grinnan,
Mrs Belmont's interest in the matter
being occasioned by the fact that her
grandmother is buried in the cemetery.
Recently, however. the Masons, at a
meeting here, decided not to force the
issue and TO seek another site for the
memorial. Richmond Leader, March
