years ago to relief from backacha,

WONDERFUL FLYING.

Tith Mr.. Wright. Again and again
+his was repeated, each time for a
longer flight until finally Mr.. Wright
romained motionlesss for minutes
ind As seconds at an altitude Of about
$50 feet.
The following enthusiastic COM
ment upon this epoch-making fight is
from the Boston Transcript.
Words almost fail us in describing
the feat or in pointing out the posi-
bilities which are shown by the per-
formance. To harness the wind it
self and force it to do the work form
erly effected by human agency, this is
an achievement indeed! Orville
Wright weighs approximately $50
mounds. His glider, perhaps, weigh
ed fifty more. The wind alone, there
fore, sustained a weight of 200
pounds for a period of ten minutes,
and not only that, but in addition
raised it to a height of 200 feet.
But it is not the record for soaring
only which makes the flight the most
remarkable in the history Of aviation.
There are not many flyers who have
braved a wind blowing fifty miles an
hour, and only in Orville Wright's
case has this been done with inten-
ton. Ralph tombstone, 1t will be re
membered, encountered a gale when
aloft a year ago this fall over Long
Island which drove him back against
the orty-mile-an-hour speed Of his BIZ
plane for fifty miles, while Vedrines,
the French pilot, flew $50 miles in
30 minutes in front Of wind velocity
Of so or 80 miles, being forced to land
because Of rough going. In both
cases, however, the altitude Of the
air-man was well up over a mile,
where the currents were comparative
ly smooth.
Just imagine the aerial maelstrom
which Orville Wright must have sur
mounted close to the brow Of hill
which was DETECTING the gale! Here
was riding the storm-wind with a
vengeance. Whatever aid may have
been lent to the skill Of the aviator
by such new automatic stabilizing de-
vice as the Wrights may have been
trying out, the fact remains that Or
vile Wright gave a mastery eXhi-
bition of flying, and one which must
go down in the annals Of aviation as
one of the finest and most note
worthy ever made"

Have I helped when I could?
Have I cheered when / should?
Have I given my best
To the tasks that were mine?
Have I wandered along
With a snatch of song?
If I have, then tonight
I've no cause to repine.
Have I kept my heart clean
From the base and the mean?
Have I kept my head up
In the heat OF the fray?
Have I made a new friend?
Then tonight, at the end
Contented L am
With the work of the day.
I'm richer, you say,
Than I was yesterday,
For nothing I've done
That will add to my pride;
I've won no new fame
That will cling to my name,
But IL I've been true

Railroad men who investigated
say they found the throttle was set

One on the Editor.

A good joke on an editor who
went one evening to report a
party at home recently blessed
with a new baby. He met his
hostess at the door, and after the
usual saluations he asked after
baby's health. The lady who
was quite deaf, and suffering with
the grippe, thought he was ask
ing after her cold, and answered
that although she usually had
one every winter, this was the
worst one she ever had; 1T kept
her awake at night n good deal
and at first confined her to bed
Then noticing that the newspa-
per man was getting nervous she
said she could tell by his looks
that he was going to have one
just like hers, and asked him to
go in and sit down.

THE YAQUIS
TROUBLESOME

A despatch from Tucson, dated
there recently, says: That an
other uprising of the Yaqui In

ent is the information brought
here tonight by passengers ar
irving from HermosilIo and
other points along the west
coast of Mexico. Two thousand
Yaquis are reported to be in the
field, 100 armed with rifles and
300 with bows and arrows.
Delay by the federal govern
ment in answering their demand
for the return OF vast acres for
merly inhabited by them, which
were given to former Vice Blesi-
dent Corral and former Gov
ernor Torres, has made them
restless, and now they have
added to their ultimatum de-
mand for a return of a thousand
acres occupied by American con-
cessiOns.
General Ojedo, comm lnding
federal troops III Sonora, has
been dispatched from Hermosillo
with 1900 meu to hold the va
quis in check, while Vice. Cover
nor Gayou is arranging A con
ference between the Yaqui lead
ers and the federal authorities

THE PAST AND
THE PRESENT

A demonstration train de-
signed to show the develop
ment of railroad equipment in the
last 80 years will shortly be run
over it's main line by the Atchi-
son, Topeka & Santa Fe rail-
road. A party Of officials will
accompany the train to give lee
lures about the old and new sys
TENS of railroading, and it is ex-
pected by Topeka officials of the
system that it will be brought
into Denver by way of the
branch into Topeka from La
Junta making the only diversion
contemplated from the main
line. The train will be made up
as follows:
A Mallet engine of latest type,
built for hauling heavy freight
trains; a locomotive of the type
in use three decades ago; a steel
framed passenger coach of latest
type, a wood framed passenger
coach used in the eighties; a new
style freight cara big one
such as is used for the shipment
of automobiles; an old fashion
ed box car, and a fat car for ex
hibition purposes, showing old
and new style switches, couplers
and brakes. On the last car
there will also be shown a sec
ton of dirt track with 52-pound
steel rails, alongside a section OF
rock-ballasted track with 80
pound rail. The train will be
equipped at the Topeka shops.

THE new FLAG
ARRIVED FRIDAY

The new flag, which was or,
dered sometime ago for this city
arrived yesterday, Friday, and
while it was too late for Flag
Day, it will be very much in ev-
idence next Sunday, as it will be
unfurled to the breeze while the
fats" and cleans" battle for
honors under its protection. The
new boys band will render ap
propriate music at $50 at the
raising Of this new flag at the
flag pole next Sunday. Prof.
Ellis will have the lads in charge
and The people will be pleased to
hear them.
Last Wednesday was Flag
Day, but owing to the fact that
the new flag did not arrive, the
enthusiasm did not run very
high in W1nslow, and T. J. Hes.
ser and John Donahue are &C
credited with being the two most
demonstrative patriots in the
city, and the colors Aoated ove1
their places of abode all day in
honor of the day.
One novel feature of the new
dag is that it contains two new
stars, representing Arizona and
New Mexico. Long may these
two stars shine and forever wave
the glory of America.

Business Man The Real Loser

The presentcondition OF affairs,
the worst financial system in any
important commercial n a ation to
day, is really up to all classes of
people in this country alike for
solution. The well-managed bank
is not often a heavy loser in these
financial crisis. In fact, many OF
them make more money during
such periods than under ordinary
conditions. The real loser is the
business man, the manufacturer,
the farmer, and the wage Garner.
and 1t is these interests, even more
than the bankers themselves that
should be vitallv interested in
changing our present financial
system. The bankers are in this
particular middlemen, and can
generally manage to save them
selves, and pass on the damage.
