Great Expansion.

Four years ago The Davidson Com
pany was using 5000 square feet Of
floor space and really did not have
stock to fill that much. In a little
over a month they will have 1880
square feet of floor space In use and
every square foot of it needed to care
for and properly display their goods.
The most recent expansion will be
over the Conner Shoe Store, adjoin-
ing the present store of The Davidson
Company. The front seventy-five feet
of the Connor store has been leased
and will be connected with the sec.
ond floor of the Davidson store by an
arch way.
Plans for the change have been
drawn by the c. A. Wheeler Co. of
Chicago, who have had a representa-
tive here for number of days going
over the situation. This company is
the leading designer for retail stores
in the country and designs all the
changes and new fixtures for the Mar
shall-Field establishment of Chicago

Provincetown, July 12.-The gun
boat Castine, flagship of the subma-
rine Bonita during the maneuvers
yesterday was beached to prevent her
from sinking. No one on board was
injured.
Two of the plates of the Castine
were loosened. Her dynamos and
boiler compartments between frames
No. 10 and No. 81 are flooded, but the
bulk heads are said to be holding
firm.
The accident happened during a
mimic attack on the Castine by the
misjudging the distance and striking
the gunboat with considerable force.
The men on both boats felt the i'm
pact and some were momentarily
stunned, but no one was injured. The
Bonita escaped with the slight dent
ing of portion of her armor and
the loss of a small section of her
railing.
AS soon as it was seen how badly
the Castine was damaged it was de-
cided to beach her near North Truror
She will be thoroughly examined to-
morrow and preparations made for
repairing the damage.

COAST SUFFERS

Cloud of Pests So Thick at Night That

Special to The Netos.
New Orleans, La, July 12.-Great
hordes of mosquitoes are roaming
over the gulf parishes of Louisiana
and Mississippi and have almost
caused business to come to a stand
still in several places. The number
of the mosquitoes is beyond the COM
prehension of the human mind and
at night they form a cloud so thick
that it is with difficulty that the moon
is viewed through it.
In Cameron parish they have forced
all the lumber mills to close down,
while in Calcasieu, Vermillion, St.
Mary and Terrebonne parishes they
have driven the hands from their
work in the field. At Estherwood,
La, young deer was driven out of
the forest covered with mosquitoes
and many other incidents have been
brought to the attention of the au-
thorities of the departure of wild
game as a result of the plague.
The mosquitoes seem to stay near
the gulf and extend in direct line
from Port Arthur, Tex, nearly over
to Mobile, Ala, and. many of the
handsome summer resorts along the
Louisiana and Mississippi coast here
suffered greatly because of the pests,
which seem to be very healthy and
possess a wonderful sting.

Bournemouth, England, July H.
The first flying tournament of the year
in England was brought to a tragic
close this morning by the dramatic
death of the most daring and popu-
lar British aviator, Hon. Charles S.
Rolls, third son of Lord. Langattocky.
In the presence of great number
of spectators, the majority of whom
were ladies and children, and many
personal friends of the young aviator,
the Wright biplane on which he was
flying fell suddenly with a terrific
speed from height of 100 feet. 1t
struck the ground close to crowded
guardstand, and was smashed into a
tangled mass; before doctors could
reach the wreck Rolls was dead.
The event in which Rolls was com
peting was for a prize for the avia
tor alighting nearest a given mark
which was in front and near the
grandstand. Rolls had risen to g
good height, shut off his motor and
was gliding in a broad circle toward
the mark when, without warning, the
tailpiece of the biplane snapped off
The machine gave a sudden lurch, the
framework crumbled up in the air
and fell like a lead ball to the ground
