burned, win buy another machine.
probably Of the same type, and will
stick to the flying machine business
until he masters it.
Mr.. Dorman is not discouraged al
though the burning of the machine
is quite loss to him. The machine
was insured for only two thirds Of its
value.
II am not discouraged" said Mr..
Dorman today. Il am going to buy
another machine, probably of the
same type, and am going to stick to
the work started out in"
If Mr. Dorman had had shovel
along with him, there would have
been a good chance to put the FIRE out,
but with nothing to work with, there
was no chance. Someone in the
crowd, with well meaning intentions,
put Charlie Crows rubber coat on
the blaze in the hope OF extinguishing
the fire, but this only made matters
worse. The coat burned like powder
and the blaze caught onto the wings,
and from that time on. there was no
hope OF saving the machine.

sion, alleged by the police to have
been secured yesterday from Mrs.
Concetti Forgione, an Italian woman
of Denver, is told the story Of the
murder Of Mrs. Maria LaGuardia. a
weIl-to-do members OF Denvers Ital-
ian colony, whose dismembered body
washed from a mountain side where il
had lain for nearly year, was found
last week in lonely mountain arroy,
near here.
The alleged confession, which is said
to have been corroborated by the wo-
mans 19-year-old daughter, Stella,
throws light on several mysterious dis
appearances among Denvers Italian
colony, and accused Mrs. Angelica
Garramone, "queen" OF Denver's ItaI-
ian colony, who is serving time for
forgery in the state penitentiary, OF
the crime.
The alleged confession purports to
relate the circumstances surrounding
the murder of Mrs. Dorinto Cellanto,

CIRCUMSTANCES
Are SUSPICIOUS

Bismarck, N. D.. Aug. 1.-THE fact
that the body Of the boy. Gotlieb Herty.
found on the prairie near Stark post
office. laid beside a well beaten cow
path scarcely half a mile from the
paternal home for eight days before
discovered, not by the parents, but BY
neighbors. has led people in that Sec
ton to believe that there is something
radically wrong.
Coroner Fields said, upon his return
from the scene Of the tragedy, that it
seemed unbelievable that the body was
not found sooner, especially as the
parents seemed TO have searched the
county for a radius of several miles
on all sides but the most likely one.
According to the story told the COR
oner through an interpreter, Gotlieb.
boy about Is years OF age. had been
working on his brother-in-law's farm
few miles away. He went over to
his home the last day or so in July
and had been out hunting the morning
OF the tragedy. He came in with some
prairie chickens and went out with an
other gun. no one seeing him. He was
missed later in the day and the mother
became worried, but apparently moth
ing particular was done about the
matter.
The brother law did not hear OF
his disappearance until Aug. 8, being
notified by neighbors who had found
the body the day before.
At the time OF the arrival OF the
coroner at the scene the entire family
Of the deceased was In Goodrich, par
ticipating in funeral ceremony, the
body OF the boy still being uncared
for and lying out In the open. The
corpse was in a terrible state Of de-
cay from the exposure and was handled
with great difficu1ty.
On account OF the lack of direct tess
timony. the coroners jury was adj
journed until Monday, Aug. IA, when
new witnesses and a competent In
terpreter has been subpoenaed to ap~
pear before them ct Stark poston1ce.

opening Of the international aviation
meet here this afternoon. In spite of
assurances by United States observers
that nine days OF fair weather and
clear skies were due. the present OUT
look is that but few Sights can be
made before tomorrow.
Nevertheless thirty five aviators, the

were up at daylight making their final
preparations, overseeing the last pos
sible touches to their machines and
assuring themselves that no mechani-
cal defect would prevent their having
a fair trial for the $4,000 in prizes
to be given.
The meet will be the first demon
stration the middle west has seen and
is to be genuine competition, not a
mere exhibition Of flights It will en-
brace races and contests every day,
contests In accuracy in flight over
prescribed courses, in quick stopping
and starting, In duration OF flight In
alighting, maneuvering in passenger
carrying and in such warIilxe develop
ments as sending message and drop
