lily equipped a fast touring car as an
ambulance. Little Constantine was
placed in the car, but he died before the
City hospital was reached.
Next to the grief-stricken family of

Carthy brought him and several wit
nesses to sta ton to explain the acct
dent to Deputy Supt. Cain, the man who
had been operating the car wept and
removing a stickpin set with a diamond
and an opal from his neckte, implored

One Fatality in 24-Hour Race.

Brighton Beach Racetrack, New
York. May 14.-One man killed and an
other painfully MANNED and three more
badly bruised, was the hospital record
for the first ten hours of the twenty
four-hour race held at Brighton Beach
motordrome track last night and to-day
The cars, wit! the Buick pair in the
lead, ran without a serious mishap until
after midnight, and as the track was
then in excellent conditi there seem
ed ground for hope that the race would
be devoid of accident.
Eighteen minutes after midnight the
looked-for crash came. The Marion
through the fence on the turn of the
Anderson jumped clear of the wreck
ley, was so badly mangled that he died
an hour later from concussi on of the
brain and a fracture of the skull.
The second accident happened at
O'Clock this morning, when the Buick
car No. . driven by George Dewitt
crashed through the inner fence on the
escapsd unhurt, but the mechanician,
Jack Towers, sustained a fracture of a
leg and internal injuries.
About three hours later the other
Buick car was disabled by the breaking
of a crank shaft.
Louis Strang, after an hours delay,
had the Marion car going again, and he
made a good showing. In speeding
around the turn into the homesuetch
S trang had miraculous escape from a
spill as he tore through the fence and
came out through the other angle Of the
barrier without scratch.

The above is from correspondent of
the Register The principle involved is
both important and timely. And if the
Attorney General does not perform his
whole duty in the matter, not only at
the State but also at all County con-
ventions, the raising of a private fund
for this purpose becomes necessary; and
whatever amount may be needed to en-
force the laws of Vermont and sustain
our Constitution on this subject will be
Forthcoming.

Peru, Vermont, May Is, 1910.

c. j. Ferguson, Esq,
Supt. Anti-Saloon League,
My Dear Sir:
In reply to your inquiry of the 18th as
to how | stand, as a candidate for the
Governorship, in regard to the proposed
Referendum for the re-submission of
the liquor law question, would reply,
ANY effective measure for the sup
preston of the liquor traffic would meet
my hearty APPROVAL as | believe that
the major portion of the crime, misery,
degradation, and ignorance, of the land
is caused by that evil. Furthermore, |
would be pleased to see the entire sup
preston of both the sale and the manu-
facture of all high stimulants above the
grade of beer and wine.
But we must treat this matter in a
common sense light making the best of
our opportunities, and acting upon the
principle of not running extreme danger
of losing what we have in strife for
more | believe that the present local
option law, properly amended so as to
prevent small towns from adopting
license for the purpose of debauching
large towns adjoining, is working, as a
rule, quite well, and directly towards
what we want in the end; and, as mat
tiers are now, especially in view of the
pressing need of reform in our election
laws, | would not, now, favor the dis
tracing the attention of the people
from these much needed reforms.
1t is needless for me to add that your
warning that it will be dangerous for
any candidate to oppose your proposed
measure has no effect upon me and re-
greet, for the sake Of the cause, that you
have made it.
Sincerely yours,
MARSHALL j. HAPGOOD.

D[POSITOR LOSES
CASE AGAINST BANK

The suit of DIR. John Fitz Gibbon for
a receiver to take charge of all the
assets of the Hibernia bank was dis
missed by Judge Seawell yesterday and
judgment rendered for the defendant
Gibbons attorneys filed three COM
plants in the case, but each was
thrown out on demurrer
Judge Seawell decided yesterday that
the defects in the pleadings were in
durable and refused Gibbon permission
to again amend his complaint.
Gibbon was one of the first depos-
itors in the bank when it opened in
1859, and claims that under the orig
inal charter he and others similarly
situated are now entitled to an ac-
counting and distribution of the
profits and assets of the institution.
AS an original depositor he claimed to
be one of the Organizers" and claimed
that his contract, made with the bank
in 1859, had matured.

EMPORIUM EXHIBITS
|. FARMAN AfROPLANt
Machine Ready for Flight and
Many Models Shown at
Department Store

An educational exhibit of a prac-
tical Farman aeroplane and models of
many other flying machines, which
will give the people of San Francisco
their first view at home of the inven-
tions which more than anything else
will characterize the first decade of the
twentieth century, is now being held
at the Emporium. Nj. Lawrence e.
Dare, an aviator who has flown in the
Farman machine and who managed the
first aviation meet in the United
States. is in charge of the exhibit. The
collection of models. in connection with
the real machines. has excited un-
usual interest.
The Farman biplane, which is the
boast of the exhibit, has been swung
in midair from the central dome over
the rotunda, of the store and on a level
with the second floor of the place. \
model figure has been placed in the
seat of the bipIane. thus illustrating
the position of the operator during a
flight.
In Dare's exhibit there are models of
a Wright machine, a Bleriot cross
channeT monopIane, Santos Dumont's s
monoplane, 'Demoiselle," Prof f. P.
Langley's early tyne, Rogier-Sommers
machine, the Antoinette type, Cha
nue. glider, Dulhil machine and
others
The Farman machine is a counter
part of the machine with which Louis
Paulhan is achieving such wonderful
flights in Los Angeles at the present
time. The one on exhibition is 80 feet
from wing to tip and is equipped
ready for flight It is a duplicate of
the famous Farman machine which at
tanned "a height of 765 feet at Rheims,
France. surprising the Wright broth
ers' record of 5S5 feet. It's latest rec
ord is 5000 feet in height and its time
record is hours 3S minutes
There is a strong probability that
the businessmen of San Francisco will
secure an aviation meet for San Fran
cisco at the close of the Los Angeles
meet, and that makes unusually inter-
esting the exhibition on the second
floor of the Emporium. Dare and his
assistants will be present at the ex-
hibit while it lasts, during the next
two weeks, ready TO explain the mod
els and machines.
