flight of s ga miles lasted 21 min

Curtis made his record fight Paul

performance through binoculars,
gave instructions to the crew to
start the motor biplane Immediately.
At the same time Willard and Ham

sight, that sent the crowd into a
renewed frenzy. Paulham landed
in few minutes, determined again
to regain some of his lost laurels,
and ordered one of his assistants
into the seat with him. In quick
succession Curtiss tried for the
starting and landing records. Cur
tiss started from marked square
in ten feet, flew about two min
utes and landed exactly on the
same spot. Paulham tried to beat
both marks, but the best he could
do was to rise in 12R seconds from
the time the engine was started and
the machine ran for more than 100
feet along the ground before ris-

Roy Knabenshue and Lincoln
Beachy, in dirigible balloons, rose
TO a height of 800 feet together

race by two lengths when the

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 11.-Glenn
Curtis, the American aviator, who
was completely eclipsed by Louis
Paulham, with spectacular feats,
during the first day of the aviation
meet yesterday, today defeated his
mercurial French rival in the race
for honors of the day. Curtiss es-
tablished new worlds record for
aeroplanes carrying passenger
flying at the rate of 55 miles an
hour with his manager, Jerome
Fancuilli, and set two other less i'm
portant records for aviation.
Not to be outdone, Paulham took
up one of his mechanicians and flew
three miles, but failed to equal the
speed set by Curtiss in the biplane
The breaking of three records in a
light with passenger, an injury to
an amateur aviator, and four aero
planes in the air at the same time
breasting a stiff wind, furnished the
$4,000 spectators with an exciting
finale.
Edgar Smith was the victim of
the first serious accident of the
meet this afternoon. Smith was
tuning. his machine for the first at
tempt to fly, and was struck down
by one of the metal blades of, the
propeller. His head was severely
gashed, and his left arm broken.
The fight of Paulham in a Bier

AMERICAN BREAKS AVIATION RECORD
ELECTED MAYOR
ON CAMPA PAIGN PLEA
Of YINDICATION
BY Associated Press


BOSTON, Jan. 11.-Boston today
in the first partyless election held
under the new charter, elected for
mer Mayor John Fitzgerald to fill
the mayors chair again, this time
for a term of four years, by giving
him 46,96S votes, plurality of
1928 over his nearest opponent,
James Storrow.
The most remarkable feature of
the election to many was the small
vote of, 1888 given to the present
mayor, George Hibbard, who re-
ceiver thirty thousand two years
ago, being elected on the "Re-
form ticket over Fitzgerald. The
fourth mayoralty aspirant, Nathan
iel Taylor, found only 629 support
ers. Fitzgerald won the victory in
spite of the fact that none of the
daily newspapers in the city sup
ported him. He based his cam
paign on the plea for vindication,
his previous term of office having
been conspicuous for the exposure
by the finance commission of graft
among his subordinates in the city
hail. Under the provisions of the
new charter the ballots bore no par
ty designations, only the candidates
names and addresses.

TO Change time
OF THE TONOPAH
GOLDFIELD TRAINS
SOUTHBOUND TRAIN WILL SOON
LEAVE RENO EARLY IN
MORNING.

RENO, Jan. 1.-THE officials of
the Southern Pacific company in
Reno received word on Saturday
afternoon that the time of trains
No. 23 and "a will probably be
changed some time this month. The
change will not matrially effect No.
23, the westbound train, but will
effect train No. a. to consid-
cradle extent. 1t will provide day
ride for the people over the des-
|ert from Reno to Tonopah and
Goldfeld instead of night ride as
is now arranged. Train No. "a, if
the new schedule goes into effect,
will leave Reno for Goldfield at
Z o'clock in the morning instead
of 1880 o'clock in the morning as
at present.
The time of train No. 23 may be
so arranged that it will arrive in
Reno one hour later. but again ii
may not be changed even that
much. The people of Nevada want
train No. 23 to run just as 1t does
at present as it is more convenient
on that schedule than it would be
on any other. Therefore the South.
ern Pacific company. in order tc
comply with the wishes of the peo-
pie will not materially change the
time of this train.

EXPLOSION OF
KITCHEN stove
WRECKS ROOM
MRS. w. l.. BERRY HAS EX.
TRENIELY NARROW ESCAPE
+ FROM INJURY.

While engaged in cooking dinner
Monday evening, Mrs. DR.. w. E.
Berry had a narrow escape from in
jury, if not from death, when the
kitchen range exploded from some
unaccountable cause. Mrs. Berry
was standing beside the range
when the explosion occurred and
received number of bruises on
her side where she was hit by fly
ing stove lids and smaller pieces
of iron. The report was heard
for considerable distance and bore
strong resemblance to the deto-
nation of exploding dynamite. From
this fact and the fact that the
stove was completely wrecked, 1t is
thought that there must have been
a stick of dynamite or percussion
caps in the coal. After the smoke
had cleared away and Mrs. Berry
had somewhat recovered from the
temporary fit of nervousness caus-
ed by the accident. she picked up
eighty-two pieces of what had once
formed part OF the range. Holes
were punctured in the walls and
ceiling of the kitchen by parts OF
the stove, showing that there was
quite bit of force to the ex-
plosion.
