the postponement Of the first flight which
the new Rex-Smith aeroplane was sched.
uled to make at the College Park aviation
field yesterday. All was In readiness

several hundred people on hand to wit
ness the exhibition. A stiff breeze swept
over the field. and it was decided to
postpone the flight.
Paul Peck, a Smith pupil, VINO made a
creditable showing with the machine on
Saturday, took the flyer In several trips
along the ground. He made several short
jumps into the air at about fifteen feet
and runs along the ground, In which the
craft showed great speed.
Anthony Janus. the former Smith
flyer. was at the park and was to have
taken the airship aloft. but because Of
the adverse air currents he remained on
earth. II weather conditions are favor
able to-day the machine will soar In the
sky in the evening. with Janus as the
birdman.

Boston aviator. from making the first

the park and expressed his willingness
to fly the plane after he saw It In a
spin or two, but because Of the mishap
he did not fly.

Washington Cricketers Defeat
Baltimore Rivals, 63 to SO

The Washington Cricket Club won from
the Sons of st. George Cricket Club, Of
Baltimore. yesterday afternoon by a
score Of s. to 80. The game was for
only one hiring. and at that lasted fully
three and a half hours.
Billy McWade was top score, with 10
to his credit. and his long smashes
brought the large crowd of spectators
to their feet, and on his retirement, by
being bowled by Lord" Henry Thomp-
son, he received a regular ovation from
the spectators on his return to the clubs
bench.
Another feature of the game worthy
of note was Capt Jimmy Roses smash
over the tall oaks that skirt the northern
boundary of the field. This is by far the
longest hit ever made on the home
grounds and netted Capt. Jimmy four.
Tom Irving and Dr.. ]. s. Cannon start
ed the bowling for the locals, the former
getting six wickets for twenty-six runs,
and the latter got two out for a total Of
nine runs.
Bulbs" D'Alcorn played a steady and
heady game when in the batting crease,
scoring ten. while Will Warren and Tom
Irving got four each.
For Baltimore. springham did the best
batting and bowling, knocking the hard
red sphere for sixteen and got four wick
cts for twenty-four runs.
Up to the fall of the sixth wicket the
Baltimoreans had only amassed twenty
one runs. They then took a brace and
scored thirteen before the next wicket
was smashed. After this the next three
batsmen were handily disposed Of with
only five to cir credit.
That cricket is gaining favor IN this
city is evidenced by the large attendance

PATENTS REACH
MILLION NUMBER
Auto Tire Invention Gets
LOng.sought Honor.

ingenuity Of the American people. patent
No. 100000, will be issued by the United
States Patent Office on Tuesday, August
s. The lucky patentee to receive the
honor is a Mr.. Hilton, whose patent at

features to adapt it for use on motor
cars.

nation concerning patents being made
public and so as to increase interest In
the contest. Besides being fortunate
enough to possess patent No. 100000, Mr..
Hilton will get much advertising for his
new tire at no expense to him.
From 500 to 700 patents are issued daily,
and as the numbers are now In the neigh
borhood of $4,000, the Loo 900 mark will
be reached August s. according to off,
ctnls

bered Up to July 2S, 1886, when patent
No. of the present series was issued,
there were s.s57 applications filed.
At present. more than $1,000 patents are
issued year The United States is far
In the lead OF all other nations, its
nearest competitor, France. having a to-
tai OF only $4,000 applications.

BOY MAYOR HOLDS
Up TOWN OFFICIALS
Continued from Page one.

the reservoir. Some citizens who were
road hurriediy' cancelled their orders.
certain that no further trouble with the
reservoir supply would be experienced.
Those who reasoned In this fashion did
not know their boy mayor. A brand new
idea-that is. brand new for Glen Echo
inspired him. He had recently delved
deeply into literature sent to him by the
American Conservation League. Now
was the time to conserve" he thought.
So he departed from his home in Prince
ton avenue at O'Clock yesterday after
noon. filled with tine brilliant plan of
conserving" the water supply. He said
he knew there was plenty Of water in the
reservoir, but that was no reason why
It should be wasted. Why not keep 1t
for future generations to enjoy. he
argued.
Key In His Pocket.
He confided his plan to the villagers as
he trapped along Conduit road. The key
clanXed ominously in his pocket, and con-
sternation spread through the town as
the news flashed along the cottages. In
haste all the available councilmen and
officers Of the village government were
brought together and urged to use moral
suasion on the boy mayor, and, IL neces-
sary, other kinds of suasion.
They reached the reservoir Just as the
chief magistrate had succeeded in turn
ing the reservoir valves, and he gave
them a triumphant lecture on the beau
ties Of conservation as they speculated
on the most painless method of getting
the key away from him. One council
man. utterly unimpressed with the doc
trines Of Pinchot origin, made a threaten
ing movement in his direction. Before
he had advanced two steps the mayor
pulled the revolver from his hip pocket,
1t is said, and defied them to his hearts
content.
The aggressive attitude Of the. council
men failed them at this juncture. and
they determined to fall back on moral
suasion. The mayor started q retreat
down Conduit road, with the three coun-
cilmen following at a safe distance
Suddenly he jumped in the automo-
bile Of a friend. and was whisked off
In the direction Of Cabin John Bridge.
Boy Mayor Pursued.
Then ths pursuit Of the mayor and the
key became strenuous. After two weary
hours Of marching and countermarching,
they located the boy mayor and learned
that he had done some mysterious re-
connoitering in the environs Of Cabin
John Bridge. with the object of getting
rid Of the key.
Three councilmen searched for the key
In the woods for an hour, and finally
found 1t in its hiding place by the bridge
In the meantime, the mayor was Joy
riding and laughing in his sleeve at the
perturbed aldermen. He was enraged
when lie learned they had found the key
and were proceeding on their way to the
reservoir.
When the mayor reached the reservoir
he found the councilmen, with a score OF
citizens to lend them support, had beaten
him TO It. He again drew his gun, it is
declared. While one Of the councilmen
was heatedly arguing with him shrewd
citizen made grab for the gun and got
It, while others pinioned his arms. That
was the end Of the celebrated attempt 70
rob Glen Echo Of its water supply.
And the boy mayor was promptly sent
home to bed.

The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1911-02-09

The League of American Sportsmen
for the Preservation of Wild Life is
sending out literature all over the coun-
try urging the enforcement of laws, where
they exist, and their enaction, where they
do not, for the preservation of birds
and game and fish from wanton slaugh-
ter. The league points out that the use
of the automatic or machine shot gun is
largely responsible for~this shameful kill
ing of the insectiverous and song birds,
and asks that laws preventing the use of
such arms for. hunting be passed. They
ought to be on the statute books of every
state in the union. When to woman's
pride and the dealers capidity is added
the bloodthirsty instinct of man, it will
not be long till the wild bird life of the
country will become practically extinct
a state of affairs which, from the merely
utilitarian point of view, would result
in the loss of incalculable millions to the
agricultural interests of the country.
