LEAK INTERRUPTS FLIGHT.
Balloonist From England Reaches
France, But Not Paris.

CORBEHEM, France, November g.
Cruisl Willows, the young Welshman who
assembled I'm his dirigibe airship at Worm
wood Scrubs. England. at 3:25 o'clock
yesterday afternoon for fight across
the English channel and to Paris, ar
rived here safely this morning.
After taking on a new supply of fuel
he prepared to proceed for Paris.
Willows attempt to renew his flight
failed temporarily, as he discovered
rupture in tube which permitted an
escape of gas. This he set about repair
to the loss of an unexpected quantity of
gas.
Willows plans to resume the trip to
Paris tomorrow morning. In landing the
understructure of the airship was dam
aged and repairs are being affected.
The aeronauts left NORWOOD Scrubs,
near London, at 1926 o'clock yesterday
afternoon. They slipped over the English
coast at $50 O'Clock last even ng, and for
over the channel. During this time they
suffered intensely from cold. At $50
o'clock they sighted the French coast
and later passed over a river, probably
the Somme.
They coated about in the darkness until
o'clock this morning, by which time so
much gas hed escaped tina they were
obliged to descend. They made a land
ing IN field some distance from this
place. and rested until Z o'clock. when
they telephoned to the Brayelie Aero
drome. Airmen Breuget and Dernv re-
sponded, and, fighting to the point of
descent, assisted the aeronauts in get
ting their airship in shape for a new
start.

Final Decision in Regard to Name

The row between the descendants of

the name of the small post office In

should be Bentley Manor or Totem

tenyille.
After a thorough investigation b. two
post Office inspectors. Postmaster Cen
eral Hitchcock has decided in ac-
cordance with their recommendation to
make the change.
The abandonment of the old name
Tottenville and the substitution of
Bentley Manor created much feeling
in the community, and in response to
a large petition from the citizens Of
the place Mr.. Hitchcock ordered a
thorough investigation to determine
what the real sentiment Of the COM
munfty was with respect to the name.
The inspectors detailed to make the
Investigation reported that the prefer
ence Of the people was decidedly fof

The District Commissioners this after
noon unanimously Endorsed the tentative
agreement entered into between DR..

and representatives of District, Virginia

The agreement provides that no new
cow or bull can be brought into the Dis
trict and remain INFESTED longer than is
necessary for it to undergo the tuberculin
test; that any COW or bull suspected of
tuberculosis must be segregated from the
herd and tested. and If found to be in
fected must be dispatched at once; that
in regard to all applications for milk
dealers licenses. prompt action will be
taken by the District authorities in adj

passionate desire for an education
in an American university and the fail
ure Of the source of funds by which he
expected to complete his studies is
given as the source of his troubles with
the police by George E. Gladstone, who
was brought to Washington today from
st. Louis, where he was arrested.
Gladstone claims to be n scion of the
Gladstone family of England, and is
wanted here to explain certain trans
actions with Photographic supplies
houses. which claim to have been
yictimized by him.
at the City Hall today he talked at
length with Attorney NJ. f. O'Brien,
who has been retained to defend him.
Gladstone says he came from England
last year, at the request of rich
uncle, who had promised to provide the
means for his education.
He says he passed the Yale entrance
examination and was admitted there.
Taking a liking to q suit of cloIhes
belonging to a roommate. according to
his counsel, he purloined them, and
served u short time in the New Haven
Jail.
Later. Gladstone declares, he entered
Exeter, but when the president of that
college learned of his prank at Yale
he was dismissed. In the interim, he
states, his uncle died, and he was
thrown on his own resources in a strange
land.

COAST ARTILLERY RECORD.
Seventy-Nine Per Cent of Hits in
Pretentious Target Practice.

The battle command practice of student
officers of the coast artillery at Fort Mon

lives were lost through the premature
discharge of a gun. showed the best rec
ord from the standpoint of efficiency ever
attained by that branch OF the military
service. y statement is made by Gen.
Murray. chief of the coast artillery corps.
Five heavy gun batteries were in action
at the same time-two 12-inch. two 1O-inch
and one 6-inch. These were trained on
two floating targets thirty feet high by
sixty feet long. which were stationed in
Hampton Roads nearly three and one-half
miles from the Notifications

the mark The firing continued for two
minutes aud thirty seconds.
Considering the battle command as a
whole, the percentage OF hits was 10.
one OF the targets was practically de-
stroyed.
, The firing was prosecuted as nearly as
possible under battle conditions. The
practice was conducted on a more pre-
tentious scale than ever before attempted.

Chamber of Commerce to
Stand for Caterers Loss
While Entertaining.
Who got away with the spoons !?

Who got away with the spoons?
This is a question which is puZzling the
board of directors of the Chamber of
Commerce, and particularly a caterer
whose spoons disappeared during lunch
con which was given by the Chamber of
Commerce in the rooms of the chamber
to a number Of visitors from other cities
recently.
According to the careter, nineteen ice
cream spoons never came back home
after that luncheon, and three teaspoons
were just as careless. So he has sub
rnitted a bill of $40 to the Chamber of
Commerce for the spoons. Now the cham-
Der had appropriated something like 1928
to pull off this luncheon. but had neglect
ed to say anything about purchasing
spoons. So when it came time for the
auditing committee of the board of di-
rectors to pass upon this bill the COM
mittee went up in the air. To spoon or
not to spoon was the question.
Finally the chairman Of the committee
asked the board how about it.. The
board let out laugh that could be
heard half way down the block, and de-
decided that the spoons must be paid for.
But no one has yet cleared up the ques-
ton as to who got away with those
spoons.
John L. Weaver of the board spoke
right out in meeting, saying that he
didn't care IL the spoons were gone to
other towns, provided they were stamped
as souvenirs Of Washington. But no one
could settle that question, either. 1t has
