WEST GROVE
ON A BOOM

There is big furry in real es
tate west of Hangman creek, close
to the right of way of the North
Coast railway. Certain pieces of
real estate in that region have
been advanced from 80 to 100 per
cent in the last four or five weeks,
and no one is ready to say why
ii is
The reason for the advance is
found in numerous purchases in
that region made by Baldwin &
Pfile, presumably for the North
Coast. 1t is reported that the
North Coast will either locate its
shops there or is preparing for
much larger switching capacity
than at first planned and that this
real estate is being bought for this
purpose. Anyway, it has sent the
prices of property in the West
Grove region soaring.

Father and boys called on Colonel
Roosevelt at his Office here this morn

was entertaining a patty of friends
from Colorado, but on being informed
who was waiting to see him he had
them ushered in at once and intro
duced them as ." my marshal and his

Another Flight :
Over the Ocean
FLYING OVER THE SEA MORE
CERTAIN THAN OVER LAND.
cURTIss At ATLANTIC CITY
Starting at $50 p. M, He Was in Air
IL Minutes-8o Miles an Hour Down
The Beach.

Atlantic City, n. J., July 6.-Glenn II.
CurtlSs this evening made another
1ngnt over the. ocean, starting at $50
and spending twelve minutes and thir-
teen seconds in the air. Curtiss on his
return to the beach declared that he
is entirely satisfied that flying over
the sea is more certain than flights
over land because of fewer sudden
changes in the air currents.
Saved Himself from a Tumble.
Failure to clear an incoming wave
as he attempted his first start allowed
spray from the breakers to strike the
propeller of the machine moving at
LOO revolutions a minute. The inn
pact split one of the blades and Curtiss
only saved himself from a tumble by
a quick descent to the beach.
A Test for Speed.
Curtiss decided not to follow out his
nrst intention of attempting an alti-
tude flight and instead made a test
for speed After facing the easterly
wind to the inlet he turned and drove
down the beach with the strong breeze
directly behind him at a speed which
he calculated touched 80 miles an hour.
Made Wide Circles Over the Sea.
Both in going with and against the
wind the plane held perfectly steady
and Curtiss afterward made wide cir
cles over the sea without finding any
air eddies.

1T is useless to hold up the hand of

the absolute necessity to keep the
negro race a little in check, for if it
once gets out of hand there will be
worse scenes under the Stars and
Stripes than have ever yet been wit
messed there
editorial this morning contends that
the fight at Reno. which was conducted
creditably and in a. fair and orderly
manner, proves nothing. A thousand
picked American whites, the paper
says, would probably beat on equal
terms thousand picked negroes in
any. conflict or form of physical en-
durance.
The American. feeling must frankly
be recognized says The Times. 1T is
easy in England, where there is no
color problem, to express indignation
at the lynchings If confronted with
entirely similar conditions thene is
much reason to fear that Englishmen
would not be more tolerant"

the whole question is the world wide
