Northwestern Trainmen Securing
Funds to Help Railroad
Mems Home.
ISSUE ALBUM; EXPECT $4,000
Money to be Turned Over to Insti'
tuition Located in Chicago Suburb
Illinois Central Employees
Say They will not Strike.

Chicago, Aug. 21.-Conductor
on the Northwestern railroad arr
promoting a plan for obtaining a
least $4,000 for the support of thu
home in Highland Park for aget
and disabled railroad employees.
The money is to be raised through
the sale Of an illustrated album
issued by the conductors employed
by the company, and all members Of
the Northwestern family" are be.
ing urged to spend dollar in buy.
ing a copy. The current issue OF
the Northwestern, the official journ.
al of the employees of the road, con.
tains an appeal for support of this
scheme and points out that the
home is an exceptionally worthy in
stitution.
Surely you don't say you can't
afford to spend this dollar in this
way?" says the Northwestern.
Most of you smoke or do something
else as a regular habit solely for
your own pleasure. If you are op-
ulent and smoke '10-cents,' deny
yourself one cigar day and your
album is paid for in ten days. If
your salary is only a few thousands
year and you feel you have to
economize on nickel cigars or sto-
gies, it will take you only twenty
days to pay for the book. The edi-
tor intends to raise his dollar by
tackling corn cob and 'shag' for
a month.
Every railroad in the land and
in Mexico and Canada is contribut-
ing to this home. Let US all pull
together and make a record for the
line in our united eff
forts to support one of the worth
lest institutions in this broad land"
Officials Of the Illinois Central
railroad declared Saturday that they
are not worried over efforts Of union
leaders to start a Strike fever"
among shop employees at South Chi
cago
Our shop workers are satisfied
with their wages and working con-
iitions," said an official of the CON-
pany. 1--WE have agreements with
the various crafts which still are in
force. No notice has been served
Upon us that any of these unions
wish to terminate their contractual
Citations, and we do not expect any
abrupt termination Of existing con-
litions. 1t will take more than soap
'ox oratory to induce our workers
o quit their jobs"

Underwood, Aug. 21.-Frank
Cash, a druggist of Underwood,
while cleaning out the cistern at
his home discovered and recovered
tub of butter that had been in the
cistern for at least seven years. The
butter had apparently been hung in
the cistern to keep cool by former
tenant of the place, Mr.. Cash stat
ing that in the seven. years he has
occupied the house no butter has
been placed there. The butter was
as sweet and apparently as fresh
as the day 1t was made. the con-
ditions in the cistern being just
right to preserve it.

Aviator Wanders Around for Hour
Unable to Get
Bearings.
HIS RECORD IS IN DANGER
Delay Causes Serious Setback in At
tempt to Lower Worlds Mark
For Cross-Country Aero
plane Flying.

Syracuse, N. Y, Aug. 22.-Lost
with his aeroplane in trying to fly
from St. Louis to New York, wan.
dered about in the air for almost an
hour late yesterday afternoon and
finally was forced by darkness to
land five miles west Of Syracuse
The delay caused a serious setback
in the attempt which the aviator IL
making to break the worlds record
in cross-country aeroplane flying.
Atwood assembled at Lyons with
the purpose of flying in airline nine
ty-eight miles to Utica before night,
Just after he started, he decided to
detour from the course which he has
followed along the tracks of the
New York Central railroad and cut
across country to give the crowds
at Auburn view of him. But he
lost his bearings and, not wishing
to alight, he kept circling about,
hoping to find Auburn. Over vii
lagos and farm houses he wandered
without avail.
Meantime great uneasiness was
felt as to his fate by thousands OF
people who waited in parks and on
housetops to see him at Syracuse
and Utica. Anxious messages were
sent over the telegraph wires, but
word came back that after leaving
Lyons he had ventured off his course
to the southwark and nothing later
had been seen of him.
The usual ten minute reports of
his progress were lacking. No tele-
graph or telephone communication
could be had with the farm houses
in the country over which he mas
disappeared.
1t was 4:24 o'clock when Atwood
left Lyons. At $3.50 o'clock he sud-
denly appeared over Auburn and
landed there.
Fearful of again being lost, since
he was away from his regular
course, Atwood did not venture
away from Auburn until GAS
o'clock, when he assembled, uncer-
tainsas to his destination.
Then began another exciting
search for him, extending all the
way from Auburn to Utica. All tele-
graph wires were burdened with the
query: Where's Atwood?"
Ten thousand people at Utica
awaited him until shutdown. SYRIA
cuse also was kept anxious, until at
7:17 o'clock word came that he had
landed safely at Belle Island, five
miles west of Syracuse.
Atwood said that in yesterdays
he had flown at least
seventy-five miles, but could claim
for his record only the forty miles
between Lyons and Rhode Island.
His total flying times was one hour
and twenty-eight minutes.

GEN. DUPONT
in HOTEL DEALS.
Invests $l,lOO,OOO in New
York HOStlrey That Will
be Worlds Biggest
ALSO INTERESTED IN
WASHINGTON BUSINESS

General L. Coleman dupont, presi-
dent OF the r. /. DUPONT de Nemours
Powder Company, has just closed one
of the most important financial deals
that New York has known In some
time. General DUPONT has Invested
Sl,lO0.OOO in the McAlpin Hotel now
under construction on Herald Square
aud has accepted a position on the
board OF directors OF the company.
This large investment Will have the
result of placing General duPnt,
Charles p. Taft, Of Cincinnati, and
Frank M. Andrews OF New York In
direct control OF the property, which
Is to be the largest public house in
the world, not only from the size Of
the structure, but also from the pos
sibility of the accommodations OF
guests The building company is
capitalized at s13,500,OOO. The hotel
will contain 1,60O rooms and will be
opened in September, 1912.
That General DUPONT considers ho-
tel property valuable investment
is shown in the fact that last week he
also associated himself on the board
of directors and as purchaser of
the Arlington Hotel in Washington,
District of Columbia, and Mr.. Taft,
the Presidents brother, is also asso-
ciated with Mr. DUPONT and Mr. An
drews in this enterprise. The origi-
nal conception OF the idea OF a now,
magnificent Arlington IN the Ma
tons capital came from James F. J.
Archibald, the war correspondent
who, with George Howard, banker
Of Washington, interested these men
who have so successfully put the Nc
Alpin deal through. The news that a
new Arlington Hotel is an assured
fact in Washington has been received
with a great deal OF interest In that
city which is rapidly becoming a
more important feature as a stopping
place for the travelling public.
