in the booth was a private exchange. the
single wire Of which led to the private
Office of the president. 1t was Ivan's duty
to answer the calls, and, IL they were of
sufficient Importance, to connect the in
ner telephone. 1t was a task which did
not strain his power Of endurance.
On the Saturday following Dicks disap-
pointfnent Ivan answered the telephone
about 10 in the morning, and was told
brusuuely to put the president on the
wire.

sham battle yesterday participated in
by the entire army division here under
the command of Major General Carter,
every branch of the army service gave
splendid account of itself. Theoretc.
ally, a command of the army was cut
off, isolated at Leon Springs, twenty
miles to the northwest. Not only was
this command cut off and in imminent
danger from the enemy intervening,
but the infantry was out of ammuni-
ton. There was no way to supply
this division with ammunition except
by the air men. Those in charge of
the flying machines distinguished
themselves by making many trips to
Leno Springs. carrying from 200 to
400 pounds of ammunition each trip,
turning the north flank of the sup
posed enemy in doing so. Both the
Wright and Curtiss machines covered
the distance to the Springs in twenty
four minutes and at places where the
wind was in their favor showed a
speed of siyty-five miles an hour.
In addition to this weight of ammuni-
ton, the ..right's machine carried two
m en- and encountered a thirty-five mile
wind on two of the trips. But not
withstanding this, the flights were
perfectly successful in every detail
and demonstrated beyond question the
utility of the flying machine in time of
actual battle. While theoretically the
enemy was defeated, the real victory
of the various departments of the
service was that won by the airmen
