A1.y 800 Sn sal1etIeS OF each class.
The bipIane does not flap its wings
UP and down In fight as does the
goose or that other celebrated bird OF
passage, the turkey. The wings re-
main stationary and the only thing
about the biplane that fops is the
tail, and this goes around at the
rate of four million revolutions per
second. When a biplane is doing its
durndest 1t makes a noise which re-
sembles q cross between q saw mill
and a boiler factory. 1t rattIes like
the bones end of a minstrel first part
and sends forth aroma like, that of
a combination tannery and glue fac
tory.
The quietest one I have heard
sounded like a 50 automobile going
over q corduroy road with its dia-
phragm banging against Itr rear
smokestack is on the biplane. They
keep 1t carefully concealed and !
don't know when they dump their
ashes. They stay up two or three
hours at a time and never spill a
thing on the crowd excepting, per-
haps, a few monkey wrenches and
now and then a mechanieian Or an
aviator.
The monopIane is the most grace
full and the fastest of all air craft.
1t carries it's revolving tail In front
and travels like a ~soft-shelled crab
going to war. The aviator rides on
top Of 1t, the same as one would ride
a bucking broncho or a wooden gil
raffe on q merry-go-round. The en-
CINE of the monoplane Is SO arranged
that you do not have to crawl under
meath 1T and lie on your back to fix
1t as was often the case with the
older type Of automobile. ] do not
think that a single aviator has ever
crawled under his machine to fix 1t
while 1t was In the air.
The main difference between q
monoplane and q bipIane is that in
q monoplane you have only one
chance, while In a biplane you are
said to have two, but whether 1t is
two chances to get killed or two
chances to escape I really have for
gotten. ] think 1t depends a great
deal upon which kind is sold by the
party from whom you are getting
your information.
! understand that a%eroplanes are
now being perfected which cannot
fall. A hangar is a hangout for the
aeroplanes when they are not flying
Il have spent q great deal OF time
around the hangers c~onversing pleas
antly with men who seemed to be not
only willing but anxious to give out
interesting information. / was told
by one OF these me- that the aero
plane cannot possibly fall IL now
In course of construction. Al nan

THE REGISTRATION.

Registration figures published
yesterday, while showing a falling
off when compared with last election
are not out of proportion for what
is commonly called an off year,
Thoae who feared that the new reg
~istration law would keep the voters
away from the polls find there was
no aus for the alarm. Perth AM
boy shows up we'll and there is
every reason to believe that a nor
NAL vote will be polied here next
month.
Voters who registered first found
'tnar ere new system was nor nearly
as bad as some had declared. Every
sensible men readily saw the reason
for tho questions asked and he re-
joiced that such q safeguard had
been placed upon the registry list.
When 1t is realized that the Quea-
lions asked here are not as numer-
GUS as those asked In New York and
some other states. 1t Ia readily seen
that New Jersey ia merely taking
the precautions that she should.
In the larger cities In the state
the registration showed the great
est falling OF, although nothing
more than was to be expected
where 1t was known that gross
frauds had existed. There liz nc
doubt that the registry list every
where has received d thorough
cleaning. whether it is as large az
It formerly was or not. The honest
voter can feel far more certain this
year than eyer before that his bal
lot is not being nullifed by a fraud
uient voter. The election in No
vember is going to be one OF the
fairest and cleanest that has taken
place In New Jersey In many years.

THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK.

The political outlook, both In the
state and nation, Ia very doubtful
for the Republican party. The re-
cent convention OF the Progressive
Republicans. held in Chicago, deyel-
oped greater strength than the reg
ulars had anticipated. There were
delegates present 0 q stares
ana a great deal OF enthusiasm was
manifested for Senator Robert M.
La Toilette. their unanimous choice
Tor nomination of President in 1912.
The rank and file of the Republi-
can party are becoming more and
more progressive. although thus far
the old leaders have been able to
hold on to the organization and
appeal that they are n com
troll. But as time passes, It becomes
evident that the Republican party
cannot obtain the upper hand until
ii has passed into the control Of
progressive element, lust as the
Democratic party has done.
The opposition to President Taft
is growing throughout the country
IN epita of all that he can do to stem
the tide. His present tour through
the west was planned for no other
reason than 70 hold the party to-
gether for him In 1912. While he
has been received with great en-
thusiasm In mery places 1t has been
entirely due to the fact that he is
President OF the United States, and
such donors are always paid to the
office and no to the man. The fact
that the President has decided to ex-
tend his tour eighteen days longer,
20 y to enable him to touch many
Of the middle southern states is evil

uataon \ is leaving nothing I'M

party - clearly spiit IN TWO. There

Harvard Crews Delayed
In Getting Into Water

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, March 1.-THE
Harvard crews will be later this year in
getting upon open water than in any
season since James S. Wray, the present
varsity crew coach, assumed charge of
rowing at Harvard. A year ago the
varsity and freshman cights first Dut
their shells into the waters of the
Charles river as early as Washington's $
Birthday, but this year 1t will be
another week and possibly ten days
before the ice leaves the river.
Yesterday afternoon Coach Wray
made several soundings of the ice off
the varsity boathouse and found he
had to drill through several inches be-
fore striking water. Around the float
the ice is more than foot thick, bDt
further out in the stream it isn't more
than half that thickness. The ice would
probably bear up a team of horses to-
day, but in spots it is rather soft and
rotten, and q warm rain would eat
into 1t in hurry.
George Sims & Sons, the English row
ing shell manufacturers, have notified
the Harvard athletic authorities that
they expect to have the new shells or
dered for the Harvard crews ready for
shipment by April l. The old shells.
which were damaged on the way here,
will probably be purchased from the IN
surance company and employed for
training practice.
