ALTA. Cal, September 13.-Not in
the least discouraged by his accident of
yesterday, Aviator Robert q. Fowler
busted himself this morning planning
the best course to enable him to re-
sumo his journey at the earliest posi-
BILE moment. Fowler's manager, c. F.
Brundy, who had preceded him to Reno,
New, arrived after midnight.
The special baggage car carrying ex-
ira parts for Fowlers machine arrived
with Grundy. 1t is possible to rebuild
the machine, as the engine is not in
jured and the ear brought sufficient
parts but Fowler believes that the
best course is 20 send to the Wright
brothers factory, in Dayton, Ohio, for
a machine, complete except for the
engine. Fowler said that ma chine
could reach him by express in four
or five days
Fowler said the immediate cause of
the accident was the failure Of the

GUN AS SOFT PEDAL
Verdi Murdered by "CIose

SLEEP DISTURBERS LOSE
Unappreciative Citizen Charged
With Threats Wins Judges
Sympathy.

William II. Masthrook, a shoemaker. of
Tenleytown scared four human song
birds away from the front Of his house
by aiming a dilapidated and ancient re-
voIver at them a few nights ago, and
was in the Police Court today charged
with threats against George Plummer.
Plummer said that the shoemaker threat
ened to kill him, but Judge Aukam ruled
that when any ones slumber Is disturbed
by the sort of close harmony which young
men like to loosen on the night air he has
a perfect right to resort to dilapidated
armament or any other sort OF strategy
to break UP the concert.
The shoemaker, in defending himself.
told Judge Aukam he had pillowed his
tired head upon his couch for the night,
on the momentous evening in question.

land where there are no shoes to mend

Second Song Even Worse.
AS bad as the first song was. the Sec
ond song, rendered without accompani-
ment. was even worse. 1t sounded. said
the shoemaker, like the last song Of a
lost soul as it is ferried across the Styx.
And that was followed by another out
rage on Verdi. when the four song birds
leaned close to a lamp post and tried
to show how "Ah l have sighed to rest
me deep in the silent tomb. from III
Trovatore,' should be rendered.
THAT was too much, said the Shoe-
maker. who is a lover of the opera and
who is passionately fond of the tower
scene, which the song birds outside were
tearing down as fast as they could.

From Middletown Ward planned to
follow the Erie to Buffalo. Mechanicans
with gasoline and extra parts await
him at Calicoon, n. Y, and Subsoue-
hanna, Pa. and at the latter place he
hoped to spend the night
A group of about 100 saw the start

with a party of friends at 3 p.m and
hopes to meet him at Susquehanna this
evening.

Just before the young aviator Jumped

mander of the Department of the East

letters for delverance at Los Angeles

AS soon he got clear of the is

was clear, and, expecting no difficulty
in picking out his landmarks. he said
that he expected to make most of the
journey at height of about 1000 feet.
Against the wind his tifty-horsepowe
engine can make about forty-tive miles an

considerably better. Ward carries fiji
teen gallons of gasoline, enough to take
