WASHINGTON. Oct. Thirteen
states have declared October 10 a
legal holiday, and the citizens Of
these divisions of the nation will
honor the memory of Christopher Co
lumbus in various ways. It has been
largely through the efforts of the
Knights Of Columbus. an organization
of Catholic laymen, that so many
states have enacted laws giving the
people a holiday. II was Colorado
that took the lead in the matter. On
April l. 1907, both branches of its
legislature passed a resolution set
ting aside the 18th day Of October
each year as a public holiday. to be
known as Columbus day" The gov
ernor. who was heartily in favor of
the measure, signed 1t Immediately,
and the bill became a law. Other
states that have made Columbus day
a legal holiday are California, Con
necticut, Illinois, Kentucky. Maryland,
Massachusetts,, Michigan, Missouri,
Montana. New Jersey, New York and
Pennsylvania. II will doubtless sur
prise many to know that there are no
less than twenty-nine statues and
monuments to Columbus in America.
There are six in Spain and seven IN
Italy. What is believed to be the first

FriSbie Breaks Machine
and Quits

Although the wind was too strong
yesterday for "Phenom" Frisbie, the
aviator. to make a flight at the Will
mington Aero Club meet, at Horse
Show Park, Frisbie entertained the
large crowd of persons by skimming
along the ground in his machine until
he came to grief by colliding with
tree. He smashed of the front con-
troller Of the aeroplane. He said
at the. time that it would be possible
for him to make repairs in about
twenty minutes, but that the wind
was entirely too strong for a fight,
and the committee Of the Wilmington
Aero Club finally decided not to at
tempt a flight The machine was re-
paired the first thing this morning,
and if the weather permits Frisbie
will make q number of flights be-
tween o'clock and darkness.
The public seems to have a mis-
understanding of aviation. II is im-
possible to make a fight when the

Advance. in Powder Co. Stock.
The Philadelphia Ledger says.

Inc Fnllduelpnld Ledger says.
Holders of Powder securities COM
mented upon the sale of DUPONT In
ternational Powder preferred stock at
Sc, this price representing an advance
Of points over the last previous sale,
and Of IL points over which the Amer
lean Milling Company recently sold
the 1853 shares so long held in the
treasury. The advance in the price of
this stock is generally considered as
foreshadowing action by the directors
OF the company toward clearing up the
arrearages in dividends in January.
The deferred dividends amount to
2 1-2 per cent, requiring a payment
of a little over 100000. To enable
such disbursement, the operating COM
pany, the International Smokeless
Powder and Chemical Company, would
first have to declare an extra disburse-
ment of approximately / IA per cent
This additional dividend is expected
by holders Of both classes of powder
securities in January.
