ties an increase of heat with depth.
But man is in possession of a Nigh
ty engine almost infinite in power, be-
sides which picks and spades, drills
and dynamite are mere toys. This
powerful engine 50 much greater than
all else in the hands of man is: math-
ematics. All things human wane and
fade in presence of mathematics. The
instruments used to find the State
of the earth's interior after boring
machines are useless as pencil and
paper. The fundamental base upon
which computation stands Is thhe
cardinal fact that the earth is
depressed at thhe poles. Thus TO-
So4, 1896 subtracteed from 20,025,S67 di-
vided by 1892 gives a quotent of
POS, a highly important number
that is, the earth's polar diameter
Is 1926 less than the equatorial.
See these things: The highher an
alysis shows that If all the materials
of the globe were uniformly distrib-
uted the depression at the poles
would be 1920 and IL 1878 of the mai
mass We're concentrated at greater
desiEy near thhe center. Since 1926
Is in, between these values, neithr OF
these conditions exist within our
world
The fact is, the density doees in
crease greatly toward the center but at
such a rate enormous quantities OF
matter are out near the surface. This
rate of increase of desity enables com
puters to find the diameter and densi-
ty of a metal core in the earth which
will satisfy equations. And 1t is
four-fifths the diameter of the whole
earth and in density almost that Of
Solid iron, which is 7.7S greater thar
that OF wafer.

Secretary Of Agriculture Warns
Vendors Against Its

Washington, d. c., March 2S.-To
Manufacturers, Vendors, and Con-
sumers of Bleached Flour:
Flour bleached by the Alsop process
contains add poisonous and added
deleterious Ingredients which render
the flour injurious to health.
Flour bleached by the Alsop process
contains a substance known as ui-
trites, which reduces, lowers and in
jouriously affects the quality and
strength of the flour
Flour bleached by the Alsop process
is mixed, colored and stained in
manner whereby damage and infer
iority are concealed.
For these reasons flour bleached
by the Alsop process is aduBlerated
within the meaning Of the Food ana

There was involved in this case
the issue of misbranding and the de-
cree of the court was that the flour
was misbranded. Your attention is
called particularly, however, to the
aduKeration feature because OF the
misleading circular which being

FRENCH AVlAT0RS BREAK
REC0RDS.F0R FAST FLIGHT
Bird Men Give Remarkable Exhi-
bitionS in Rheims Meet

BETHANY PLAINS RHEIMS,
France, July 9.-Many records have
been broken at the aviation meeting
here during the week, but the most
sensational flights have been made by
Leon Morane, the French aviator, who
today in a new 100 horsepower Bleriot
monoplane, covered five kilometers
(3.10 miles) in minutes and 56 sec
onds, and ten kilometers in 8 minutes
and AZ seconds, and by M. La Bou-
chere, also a F'renchman, who broke
the worlds record for distance, flying
$40 kilometers (211.14 miles) in a single
fight in 4 hours 81 minutes and 45
seconds.
The most remarkable achievement
of a remarkable day was that of Nor
ane, who made his fight of more than
a mile a minute while ten other ma
chimes were in the air. AS compared
with him they seemed to be standing
still. LIE Blanc will use the same
type of aeroplane in the Gordon Ben
nett contest and French experts con-
slider that he has a splendid chance
to capture the trophy, as the speed
developed by Morane today was more
than four minutes under the winning
time of Glenn H. Curtiss for the same
distance last year.
Olieslagers reduced the 100 kilometer
record (622 miles) to hour and min
utes. Aubrun, in a monolane, with a
single passenger, covered 195 kilo-
meters (S39 miles) in 2:09:07. La Bou-
chere was awarded a special prize of
$1,000 for breaking Olieslager's record of
250 kilometers.
The constructors prize for the great
est total, distance covered by three
machines of one design goes to the
Antoinette monoplane, which covered
2,744 kilometers Q076 miles).

Brookins Breaks Altitude Record
and, with Engine Dead
SWoopS to Earth
DARING ACT WINS $4,000 PRIZE
Aviator Makes Highest Flight in
History Over Ocean at
Atlantic City
Associated Press1

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., July o.
Walter Brookins in Wright biplane
broke the worlds altitude record here
this evening when he attained a height
of 6175 feet. He used his last drop of
gasoline at his highest altitude and
was still climbing when his engine
missed explosions. The aviator brought
his machine back to level to get the
last drop of fuel out of the storage
tank to reach the line of vision of en-
gineers on the beach. Reaching the
imaginary line. Brookins started to
glide to the earth and his engine stop
ped entirely when he was $500 feet in
the air and still over the ocean. His
circling glide to the beach, which the
crowd believed to be a, bit of fancy fly
ing, was done to save himself from div
ing into the sea. BrookinS was ready
to collapse when he reached the ground
and did not tell of his plight in the
air until midnight after he had partly
recovered.
officials at midnight gave SITS feet
as the exact height of the fight from
calculations of engineering experts.
The paragraph record is 5000 feet, leav-
ing but 25 feet difference. 1t is eX-
pected that the record will stand with
out protest.
By his feat today Brookins wins the
$4,000 prize offered by the Atlantic City
Aero club for breaking the worlds rec
ord unless a higher altitude is reached
here before the end of the present meet.
Brookins spent l hour, minutes and
35 seconds in the air, according to the
official timing.
About 81 minutes of this time was
made in the circling ascent the rush
of more than a mile to the ground
less than seven minutes.

President of Mexico Writes PreSi-
dent Taft Regarding Central
American Republic
REPORT OF KNOX SUBMITTED
Correspondence Made Public in
Newspaper Published at
Mexican Capital
Associated Press1


WASHINGTON, July 9.-The atti-
tude of the Mexican government
toward the Madriz cause in Near
aqua and the light in which President
Taft views Central American affairs
were made palmer today when the
text of the correspondence which re-
Gently passed between President Diaz
and President Taft on the subject
became known. This conference took
place several weeks ago, but further
than bare statements about the eX-
change and it's purport, the state de-
partment had nothing to say about
it. The letters were printed in Span
ish in Mexico City and were translated
here today.
President Diaz wrote to President
Taft as the result of the circulation
of the telegram Madriz sent to Cen
trail American governments protesting
against the attitude of the United
States in Nicaragua.
ERRONEOUS INFORMATION
"If these facts are exact in all de-.
tails" said President Diaz, after re-'
ferring to Madriz's protest, Il permit
myself in the most friendly spirit to
recommend most earnestly to your ex-
cellency that. inspired once more by
that high spirit of justice which has
always marked the government of the
United States of America, you would
reconsider these instructions where
Nicaragua complains to the end of
permitting the government of Madriz,
within a prudently brief period, to
accomplish that complete pacifcation
which is offered, since a prolongation
of a state of war in that country
might perhaps harm all of Central
America. If your excellency believes
that my good offices may prove sue
cessful in any manner for the pacif1ca-
tion of Nicaragua, I shall be always
disposed to exercise them
SENDS KNox's NUTS
President Taft, in reply, sent Diaz
the text of the report which Secretary
Knox had sent to Madriz himself
through Consul Olivares. This already
has been published
In addition President Taft spoke of
conditions in Nicaragua as deplorable.
He said:
IT esteem your excellency's friendly
interest in the relation of the United
States with Nicaragua, which is at
present in a deplorable condition, and
the well-being which, as well as that
of the other republics of Central Amer
lea, the government OF the United
States and the government of Mexico
period of the Washington convention.
DIAZ'S LETTER
"As your excellency will have sur
missed, the telegram which DIR. Madriz
ordered sent to you, as well as the
telegrams sent to a large number of
other governments in which the con-
tinuation of the struggle in Nicar-
aqua is attributed to the policy of the
United States, evidently has been
under erroneous informa
ton with respect to the actual facts
and the principles of international law
applicable to the case.
LAS to the statements made in the
1 communicate the text
Of a declaration which the secretary
Of state has ordered to be delivered
TO DR.. Madriz through the American |
consul at Managua, as we'll as to the
Estrada faction through the consul at
