ing to long pastorates has the follow
ing comment on Rev. John Gammons:
'Anothcr pastor who has often been
re-appointed to the same work is Rev.
John Gammons of Cresco. Rev. Gam
mons has closed his ninth successive
year with his people at Cresco and
they expect his reappointment at this
session. His work has been very sue
cessful in this long term. Last year a
$4,000 debt on their beautiful church
was cleared off and more than $1,000
was expended in making improvements
on the interior of the building. Rev.
Gammons not only enjoys the hearty
cooperation of his own people at Cres-
co but is also very popular with all
classes there. The year just closing
has been one of his best"

Av|ATORS TO Cross The ALPS
MUST ASCEND 1000 FEET AND 20
MILES,.
MonopIanes to be Used by All Except
One-FoIIow NapoIean's
Road.

Brig, Switzerland, Sept 19.-Every
thing is in readiness for the great
across-the.Alps race, over the Simplon
Pass and down into Italy, crossing
Lake Maggiore, to Milan.
Under the rules, the contestants
may start at any time until Sept. 2d
but they must complete the air jour
ney to Milan in single day.
Many experts here regard the at
tempt as foolhardy as the aviator must
rise about 1000 feet Immediately on
leaving the ground and maintain that
altitude for not less than half an hour
to clear Simplon Pass. Descent any
where in the first 20 miles of the
rocky, precipitous gorge would mean
almost certain death.
A meteorlogist stationed on Simp
Ion during the last month reports that
the peaks of the mountains are snow
clad and the air currants strong. In
that time there have been only two
days in which the pass could be cross
ed in safety. Experts have calculated
that an altitude of 1000 feet would re-
duce the power of motor 35 per cent
George Chavez, the Peruvian aviator
will start in the monoplane with
which he recently made height rec.
ord of 8,792 feet at Issy.
Fears Extreme Cold.
He has been studying the route for
two weeks past and is confident of
success. He regards the extreme
cold of the mountain passes as the
greatest difficulty which he will have
to surmount. The other starters will
be Cattaneo, Paillete, Winoziers and
Weymann. With the exception OF
Weymann all the aviators will use
monoplanes. A telegram has been re
ceived from Latham withdrawing from
the contest. Latham explains that his
motor is incapable of reaching the
necessary height.
The start will be made from large
plateau 900 feet above sea level. The
route follows the road built by Napo
leon, over the Simplon Pass. which
is 6,692 feet high. The country is
broken and very difficult. There are
many chasms, notably the gorge OF
Yztte.
II the weather Is clear the aviators
can easily follow the road, but as an
extra precaution signal fires will be
lighted and flags will mark the route
and bouys show the way across Lake
Maggiore. Alpine soldiers will send
up photographic signals in the noun

will be illuminated.

~ Evidence To BE Submitted at
Hearing, Which Begins Soon.

,i LANSING. Mich. Aug. s0.-Railroad
Commissioner Scully arrived at his
ONCE yesterday and took up the mat
ter OF investigating the Durand wreck.
The attempt OF Grand Trunk officials
last Saturday to prevent the commits
sion ascertaining all the facts by re-
fusing them admission to the hearing
has heightened the determination OF
state officers to probe the wreck to
the bottom, and already they are In
possession OF information which lhui-

Ing here Wednesday, but the coroner =
Inquest Is fixed for that day in Durand
and unless that date Is changed the
commission will fix another time Tor
taking up the state inquiry. The COM
mission has been informed that wit
nessee may be secured who will swear
that there were no tail lights on the

out OF Durand the night of the wreck.
IL IS said that witnesses will also
swear that the fuse, torpedoes and
tail lights were all left In the diner
which was taken of the rear end OF

Today IL Is expected the commits

OF brutality are made against militia,
men today following the street car
riots OF last night when 40 men were
arrested and probably 200 suffered IN.
jury from night sticks and rifles. Res
idents OF the riot district make the
accusation that the soldiers welded
their clubs and guns promiscuously.
The sudden arrival OF Battery @
was big surprise TO the rioters and
police. The battery had been publicly
relieved from strike duty two days
ago but their coup OF last night leads
to the belief that the publication Of
their release was merely q subterfugs
to find out just how quiet the city
was.
Numerous minor riots followed the
one at Leonard-ave. In one instance
the militia dispersed q mob OF 400 per.
sons who jeered and roughly handled
street car passengers In front OF the
street car company offices short dis
tlnce from the capitol. There Is evil
