tive Parents Tried to Secure r.

Mrs Dora Warren, wife of Arthur w
Warren, was childless. So DESTROYS Was

band agreed to induce another woman to
give her child into their permanent keeping
They succeeded in this, but their JOY was
short lived. for after the Warrens had gone
through all the usual ceremony Of announc-
ing the arrival of baby, the mother of
the child changed her mind and took the
child hack.
So Warren was in the Supreme Court yes
terday TO regain the baby on writ of ha-
beas corpus directed to the mother
The baby was born on February is last
and was named Walter Wellington Warren,
after the uncle of the supposed father. The
real mother of the youngster was Mrs.
Maude II. Campbell who was employed at
the St. Georges Deaconesses' Home. Mrs.
Warren. after arranging with Mrs. Camp
bell to adopt her baby. took to her bed and
had a physician call on her for several
days The child was delivered to the War
rcn home, according to agreement.
The supposed parents cared well for the
child and supplied him with everything
that he needed. But the mother love was
too strong TO thus give away her own flesh
and blood. and. asserting itself, Mrs. Camp
bell went to the home of Mrs Warren on
October IS and took her baby away.
Justice Davis dismissed the writ OF ha-
heas corpus and permitted the real mother

DREXEL OUT OF CLUB
WithdraWs Reflections on Air
Meet Committee in Letter.
DOESN'T GET HEIGHT MARK
International Rule Requiring
Previous Record To Be Beaten
by 100 Metres the Reason.

]. Armstrong Drexel. the rising young
Philadelphia aviator, has fallen. In so
doing he accomplished more aerial gym
nastics than Arch Hoxsey ever dreamed
of in his widest rebeIions against the re-
straining rules of Father Wilbur. He ac-
complished the remarkable feat of going
up in the air once on October 81 and again
On November q and coming down from
both ascensious on the same day-yester-
day. And he came down hard.
It happened thus: On the first date Mr.
Drexel went up In the air to the extent OF
about two typewriter pages denounclng
the action OF the Aero Club of America IN
refusing to allow GrahameWhite, the Eng
lishman, to compete q second time In the
Statue of Liberty flight, which was won by
John E Moissant, and announcing his de-
termination to resign from the club on
the second date Mr.. Drexel went UP in the
air to the extent of about 1887 feet, claim
ing Herewith the worlds record for alh-
tude. Yesterday. at a regular meeting OF
the governors of the Aero Club, MI Drex-
els resignation was accepted with annoying
calnness and without comment and yester-
day. too, it became known that Mr. Drex-
els worlds record wasn't worlds record
after all.
In these two descensions. The first was
q letter from Mr. Drexel to the Aero Club
explaining his action. The second was the
fact that Mr.. Drexel really did go higher
than any one else ever went, but couldn [
have the record because under the rules
Of the International Federation one fight
must exceed another by 100 metres in order
to he called a record
Mr. Drexel'S letter follows:
Gentlemen: In view of the Inisunder-
standings which have occurred and the
misstatements which have appeared In re
gard to the protest which l made on DC
tober 81, 1910, I am writing to you to define
my true position in regard to that protest
and to make clear the motives which
prompted my action
As the only American contestant resident
In Europe the foreign aviatorS looked to
me during the meet at Belmont Park TO
represent their grievances. and, indeed, |
felt responsible to them and to myself that
nothing should occur which would lay
American craftsmanship open to criticism
My plain duty was to prevent this at any
cost, no matter how unpleasant for my
self In the performance of this duty as
saw it. I necessarily took the initiative In
representing the foreign aviators through
an earnest desire to render impossible any

is the state of Iowa permitted to
exercise jurisdiction over the waters
of the Mississippi river when it comes
to regulating fishing? 1t appears that
the old state has answered this ques
ton to its own satisfaction in the at
f1rmative The men who make their
living by fishing, however, disagree
with the state in this regard They
do not deny that the state can regu
late its game and fishing within Its
boundaries, but they refuse to con
cede that this right extends to the
waters of the big river. With the idea
of finding out who Is right in this mat
ter, Burlington fisherman named
Fleurry, deliberately violated the Law
by fishing with bait net In the riyei
without license. He was arrested by
| Game Warden Dan Tubbs and his
hearing will take place on November
5. Fleurry is backed by the othel
fishermen in that city, likewise the
dealers. The matter will be fought
through the lower courts and carried
UP to the state supreme court and il
necessary to the supreme court of the
| United States The outcome of this
case interests fishermen from Keokuf
| to Dubuque. They will watch the
case closely. as 1t means much tt
them to be permitted to fish unmolest
ed in the waters of the Mississippi.
