Successful Thanksgiving Entertainment.

The Thanksgiving entertainment given
at the Gondran Theatre last Tuesday eve
ming was a grand success financially and
artistically. The house was crowded,
standing room being at premium. The
program was varied and highly entertain
ing, and the choruses showed the thorough
training in voice culture which is given at
our Catholic schools.
The pretty .Babyland' song charmed
everybody by the grace of movement and
the sweet voices of the little girls. The in
.strumental duets were well rendered,
while the defamation by Miss Georgette
Richard sustained her reputation as a
fine elocutionist. The sword drill and flag
drill brought out succession of beautiful
figures, and what with the blend of col
ors and lit of the march of young
and vigorous feet, was elimination of
the beautiful which elected rounds of APP
plause from the delighted audience.

Penitentiary Nine Takes
Fort TOssers Into Camp

Classy ball on the part Of the Nav
ericks and the failure of the soldiers
to make connections with the ball
at critical points of the game were
responsible for the defeat Of the First
Cavalry boys yesterday by score of
Z to 8. Good hitting on the part of
the penitentiary bunch in the first two
innings, aided by errors on the part
of the soldiers. brought two Mavericks
to the home plate. After this neither
side made a tally until the seventh
inning, when the Mavericks connected
safely with Mortinson's offerings for
five runs. Wilmering pitched a con-
sistent game and was not scored on
until the eighth when one soldier sue
ceeded in getting home. Umpire Ulms
decisions were fair and prompt, and
the game was not marred by any
wrangling. One of the features of the
game was a three Dagger by Cook
The game was played on the new
diamond in the jute mill yard. A large
amount of work has been expended on

Airship Rules
Are Laid Down

PARIS, March 2S.--Rules and re-
gulations controlling the navigation
of the air have been formulated
by the Aero club of France and
have been submitted to the French
government as the basis for a ma
tional law.
The code, elaborated after much
study. aims to meet the rights and
balloonist flying through space and of
man and mans property on the earth
below.
Following are some of the clubs
suggestions:
Aerial craft, whether aeropalne or
dirigible balloon, must not circulate
lower than $50 feet above private
property.
Flying above cities requires per-
NIT from the municipalities.
Flying in fog is not allowed and
the transportation of explosives, ex-
cept hunting ammunition is prohib-
tied.
The fixation Of general aerial routes
is recommended as a way of avoid
ing collisions and aeroplanes and dir
igible balloons should keep off a GER
tain distance from spherical balloons,
so if accidents happen to the dirigible
machines the spherical may not be en-
dangered.
For the protection of the aeronaut
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1910-03-28

it is recommended the proprietors of
high buildings and other structures be
required to illuminate their property
at night at each level of $50 feet,
while electric wires strung above $50
feet from the ground should be mark
ed each 600 feet with a white flag by
day and a white light by night. Other
suggestions relate to the establishment
of aerial ports of access" to large
cities.
The project is now being studied by
Mr.. Miller and the minister Of pub
lie works.
