In almost all of the engagements
during the late revolution it was rota-
BILE that the casualties in the ranks Of
the rebels was small IN proportion to
the number Of shots fired. Ordinarily
this was ascribed to poor marksman-

according to Manuel CrQuidi. one OF

far to explain the apparent weakness

contained such small amount Of pow

STATUE TO BRYANT
Unveiled, Tuesday, in Bryant Park
New YORK, by Donor John Bigelow.

New York. Oct. PA movement
launched "a years ago to honor the
memory of William Cullen Bryant,
bore fruit, today, in the presentation
of a statue of the poet to the city of
New York. The statue has been erect
ed in Bryant park, at Fifth avenue
and And street and was unveiled, this
afternoon, by the Century Associa
ton its donor. John BigeloW, the
venerable diplomat and writer, I'M
yelled the memorial, and Mayor Gay
nor accepted il on behalf of the city.
The Rev. DR.. Henry Van Dyke made
the principal address.
Mr. BigeIow was chairman of the
committee appointed by the Century
Association in 1883 to raise funds for
the statue. Individual subscriptions
were limited to $3.50 and the necessary
amount was raised years before the
committee could procure a suitable
site. In recent report to the associa-
ton Mr. Bigelow said that efforts to
procure a site in Central park were
hampered many years ago by the city
administration on account of Mr.. Bry-
ants editorial attacks on the Tweed
ring. It was not until 1895 that the
committee succeeded in obtaining per-
mission to erect the statue in Bryant
park. The statue is designed by Her
bert Adams, who took four years to
complete the work. 1t is of bronze,
cast in enc piece.

Wright Breaks
Glider Record.

Kill Devil Hill. n. c., Oct 24.-In a so
mile gale, today, Orville Wright went
aloft and remained virtually stationary
in his glider with which he is conducting
experiments in aerial stability. He was
up minutes and 40 seconds and made an
altitude of approximately $50 feet.
The record breaking flight was the
18th of series that began, today, when
the rain ceased. The success of the eX-
pertinent is understood here to mark .
long step forward in the science of avia-
ton, and to point the way toward solving
the problem of automatically preservint
the equilibrium of heavier than air ma
chimes When Lorin Wright and Alex
ander Ogilvie the English aviator
brought out the machine for the inl-.a
| flight the wind gauge showed that tn
| gale was 50 miles and freshening. In thu
opinion of the experimenters no more
irving weather conditions under whict
to make the test of the machine could bs
found.
The glider was equipped with rear
rudder of "A feet spread In front TO pre-
serve the balance 10 pounds of sand was
swung on the end of rod extending
eight feet in front of the aviator's seat
The ailerions or balancing wings on th'
sides of the machine were adjusted, anc
Orville Wright lifted himself into th'
seat
Let 1t CO." he shouted. Lorin Wrigh
and Ogilvie thrust the glider into thu
face of the gale and it shot up. Again
and again this was repeated, each high
becoming lengthier, until for almost i
minutes Wright scared like a broodinl
buzzard on the rush of a 50-mile gale.
Ogilvle made several short fights q
the close of the day, but none even ap
proximated the success made by Wright
1t was apparent that the maintenance D
poise and balance rested as much on thu
stability and skill of the aviator as upoi
the mechanical contrivances by which
the Wrights hope to minimize the perilS
of flying
Orvile Wright admitted his satisfaction
with the results and declared the condi-
tons under which the flight wSs made

Without shoes or head clothing. in an
open boat that threatened to capsize in
the high running sea, she went out to as
sist two soldiers from Fort Adams VINO
had been in a sailheat that was upset
in the storm. Although both men We're
unconscious she managed to take them
into the boat and bring them to the light
house. where they We're revived. For
that achievement, which brought to wild
err notice her previous record of life saw
ing Miss Lewis was thanked by Congress
and by the General Assembly of Rhode
Island, and received silver medal and
500 in cash besides countless presents
and letters from different parts of the
world In later years she received from
the American Cross of Honor Society
membership in the orders and its cross
of honor-the first woman to be SO hon
ored-and from the Carnegie Hero Fund
she received a first class medal and an
annual pension. Her salary as keeper
of the lighthouse was only $50 year.
In addition she has drawn life pen
sion of $50 month from the government
since 1907.
Miss Lewis narrowly escaped death
in 1881, when she was pulled through
the ice in the harbor by two soldiers
from Fort Adams. whom she was res
cuing. The little woman barely es-
capped drowning and was almost be-
numbcd when she finally got the sol
diers to safety.
For this feat Congress again voted
her a gold medal, the Massachusetts
Humane Society presented her with
one of silver, and the soldiers at Fort
Adams gave her silver service.
Within the past five years, Miss
Lewis has saved the lives of several
individuals. 1t was reported two years
ago that she had performed another
quadruple rescue, but with her char
acteristic modesty she made trip To
the mainland expressly to deny the
report. 1t is believed a number of her
feats of hercism have never become
known.

that no girl in the world could COM

But trouble that | had not dreamed
of arose. 1t was nothing l could have
prevented. Avis mind concerning her
ambition for the future underwent a

opera singer instead of passing her
| time in n parsonage as the wife of a
minister of a small church. And that
| is the cause of our broken engage
ment. When she remained determined
| in spite of my endeavors to have her

That action was taken by Avis Lin

And when it becomes necessary /
shall produce three witnesses who can
bear ne out in this. They knew all
about our match falling through, and
they will tell the reason, just as

The Cause Of Colds and a Safe Cure.

A common cause of many colds is
the sudden checking of the unconscious
perspiration by exposure to change of
temperature. Colds, whether taking the
form of Coryza with sneezing, running
nose, and perhaps sore throat, or with
chilly and feverish symptoms, should
never be neglected in the earliest
stages, serious illness often results
from such neglect.

the body well warmed, and most i'm
