Special Cable Despatch 10 THE SrN.
DUBLIN. Sept - The executive com
mittee Of the Amalgamated Society of
Railway Servants is bitterly disappointe ed
at the lack of response on Thursday to
their order for general strike. At Dun
dalk a member of the committee declared
on Friday that the Scotch Great Northern
would go out the following day if the
union was prepared to fetch out the EN-
ployees of the United Kingdom on Sun
day. Before things were better. they
said, they would run England and Ireland
into civil war
After three days none OF the three grea
roads has been tied up and two Of them
are almost unaffected, The third, which
is the Great Southern and Western. is nc
worse of than it was before the general
strike order The Midland Great Western
is running on time.
The fact that the Great Northern was
able to run eighteen special trains on
Saturday for the benefit Of the Ulster
Unionists. anti-home rule demonstration
in addition to it's ordinary schedule shows
Its condition to be practically normal.

THE ALERT MILE. DUTRIEU.

Mile. Dutrieu. the French airwoman
was the star attraction at the hangers
yesterday afternoon. Every one stopped
to take look at the featherweight fier.
who tips the scales a ( 95 pounds and looks
even smaller. She does not speak word
of English. but through an interpreter
she answered all the questions that visi-
tors asked.
She was logged out in her aviation
costume. which is a two piece suit Of her
own design. Ii consists of a blouse and
a divided skirt. which are Joined by a
black patent leather belt Each half of
the skirt is provided with strap that
holds il fast about the ankle while she is
in the air. She wore patent lea ther shoes
with white kid tops and an automobile
cap When she is not flying Mile. Dutrieu
loosens the ankle straps and the trouser
effect is converted into walking skirt.
Yesterday afternoon she replaced the
cap with a soft white felt hat tilted at a
saucyange and stepped outside the hanga
to pose for the photographers. Soms
one asked her what she thought OF avia.

her shoulders she replied:
1T is the hest sport for those who are
anxious to die young"
Mile. Dutrieu said shc had met with
three accidents in her aeroplane, but she
had never been frightened, for the reason
that each happened so suddenly that she
did not have time to think.
Il was born with a desire for excite
ment," she said, "and could never con-
tent myself with the ordinary occupa-
tions | always wanted to do the thing
that seemed the most dangerous. and

performing this feat that she lost her
balance and had a fall that injured her
so severely that she was partially par

Mile Dutrieu began flying in 1909 in
a Demoiselle monoplane, hut found this
dainty little aero too tame and soor
changed for high power machine. She

Mile. Dutrieu says she is not going t'
