What the

pionship cup won by Glenn d. Curtiss
at Rheims. In France recently purse
Of 10000 francs was offered for elm
ination races for the selection of
French international team, the object
being to select three aviators to come
to America for the contests with spe-
cially built racing machines.
In addition to the international team
of three 1t is expected that at least six
other French aviators will come over
with the expectation of flying away
with several Of the prizes. From Eng
land will come another team of three
speedy aviators, who will seek to show

The speed contests will extend over
eight days. In the first three days an
elimination race will probably take
place for the selection of the three
American aviators who are to eonsti-
tute the cup defending team. Racing
aeroplanes of special design are now
being built in this country and abroad
to be used in the speed contests, and it
is the expectation of some of the fore

international trophy this year will
have to show a speed Of seventy miles

however, he was recalled to the uni
versity to become Jay professor Of
law and held that chair until 1887.
when he went to Cornell university to
aid in organizing the newly formed
law department of that institution.
AS professor of law and associate
dean he remained at Cornell until
1895, when he again returned to Michi-
gan to become dean Of the law depart
ment
When President Angel went to Tur-
key in 1897 to be United States min
lister to that country Dean Hutchins
was chosen acting president. Thus
he was tried in the most important ex-
ecutive Office twelve years before his
second appointment to 1t nearly year
ago, and his good record in the first in
stance was the cause Of his being
chosen again. -
President Hutchins will guide the
education Of between 5000 and 5000
students, the registration Of the uni

dents than are enrolled at any other
institution Of higher learning in the

won the distinction Of being the first OF
the bird men to course over the open
ocean, and from the beginning to the
end Of the journey he was greeted
with tremendous enthusiasm. At times
he drove his biplane at speed which
reached mile minute. although. the
course being unmeasured no officin'

as large as the Zeppelin airship. being
238 feet long. with lifting capacity

including the wireless operator. The
great problem to be overcome IS 10
keep the balloon in the air for the re-
quired time, six to ten days, with the
varying temperature. which causes
contraction and expansion of the gas
in the envelope. A system of auto
matte equilibration, however, has been
adopted. which is expected to coun,
teract all the weather influences.
II this feat is accomplished sue
cessfully the first chapter In the MS
tory of modern air navigation will be
finished this year The great success
of the aeroplanists here and abroad
of late will form thrilling episodes III
that chapter, but when the crossing OF
the broad ocean through the air has
been accomplished the triumph OF ar
manship will be complete.
With the swift developments OF the
art Of flying-an amazingly swift prog
ress when one recollects that 1t IS less
than five years since the Wright orotn,
ers made their first successful fights
at Dayton and only little more than
two years since the first fight IN pup
lie Of more than a mile was made by
Farman at Paris-the need OF laws
regulating the conduct OF flying ma
chimes has now become apparent IN all
the civilized nations of the world. Ne
eotiations are now In progress on
treaty between the United States and
Mexico to prevent smuggling by this
new means of transportation. the
flights Of Charles X. Hamilton last
February repeatedly over the border
line Of the two countries having
shown how easily smuggling could be
conducted by means Of an aeroplane.

The Carnegie made its first trip Aug.
q. 1909, and after journey of 5000
miles returned to New York within six
months. Within that time errors OF
Importance in the best charts now
available were disclosed. and the Car
negie results are accepted as correct
by leading photographic officers.
On her magnetic survey around the
world the Carnegie will find the areas
of magnetic attraction ann make
known their effects for the guidance OF
