NEED AEROPLANES.
y. S. Military Forces Are Not
Abreast of Times in This
Respect.
so DICKINSON REPORTS
War Secretary Urges Appropriation
OF 100000 for Coast
Defense.

Washington, Dec. 10.-Secretary
of War Dickinson in his annual re-
port Endorses the use of the flying
machine as a military aid and rec
ommends that congress appropriate
funds to provide the signal corps
with several machines for instruc-
ton purposes and field work. The
aeronautical equipment of the Unit
ed States now consists of one small
dirigible balloon, one Wright aero
plane and three small captive bal
looms.
The secretary calls attention to the
fact that the entrance to Chesapeake
bay, one of the most important
points strategically, on the Atlantic
sea coast, is unfortified. At another
important point-the eastern en-
trance TO Long island sound-addi-
tional guns are needed.
Coast Defense Needs $4,OOO,OOO.
Except for these instances, so far
as guns are concerned the sea coast
defenses at all home ports are in a
satisfactory state, but much remains
to be done in providing such auxil-
iaries as searchlights and in develop
ing the fire control system which viii
require $4,000,O00 of expenditure.
Congress is asked to authorize an
expenditure of $19.546,S43 for the
Notifications on the Panama canal
including the construction of posts
for the permanent garrison, and
100000 of this sum should be
made available Immediately in order
to complete the project within three
years. The additional sum of $4,000
900 is wanted Immediately to be ap-
piled toward the creation of naval
establishments in the canal zone.

MY WANTS.

What do | want for Christmas, dear
I'll tell you this very minute:
l want a little bingham frock
With a blue eyed lassie in it.
AS red as a cherry skin,
And a peach-pink cheek to press
I want a kiss from a pair of lips
against
My tough old be-whiskered chin.
There are two small arms that want
to feel
Around this old neck of mine.
II I'm reused by baby's shout of glee
l shall reckon my Christmas fine.
Oh. I want a hug and l want a squeeze,
And l want a smile or two;
Old Santa Claus never will come to me,
So I'm putting my faith in you.
1 don't want jewels or pipes or things,
Or anything gold can buy;
just want the love that baby brings
The light to a baby's eye.
So bring me a little bingham frock
With a blue eyed girl inside,
With kisses for me on her ruby lips,
And / shall be satisfied.

RUNAWAY TEAM HITS WALL
Brewing Company Outfit Collides
With Sand and Gravel Office.


With Sand and Gravel Office.
A team belonging to the G. Heilman
Brewing company engaged in short
but exciting runaway at First avenue
near Twentieth street late yesterday
afternoon. They were hitched to a
wagon which was standing near car
which was being unloaded on First
avenue near Twentieth street, when
they became frightened and dashed
away. They ran east and around the
corner at Twentieth street, missing a
number of other teams and several Pc
destrians by narrow margins and
bringinup against the Office of the
Rock Island Sand and Gravel company
half a block south. The pole of the
wagon was driven into the brick wall
and broke, and the strength of the tim
Der probably saved the horses due to
the wagon running upon them. No
other damage beyond broken window,
resulted.
