Governor 6 ! Message N 70
Be Delivered Tuesday

Helena, Jan. /. 1.-Everything is in
readiness for the opening of the
twelfth legislative session at noon
tomorrow. At that hour the two
houses of the legislature viii organ
ize and then appoint committees to
notify the governor that they are
organized and ready for business.
Governor Norris said this evening
that he will deliver his message to
the legislature at II O'clock Tuesday
morning, when the two branches
will hold a joint session in the
chamber Of the house.
The legislators are arriving earlier
this year than has been known be-
fore for years. Usually they are
satisfied to arrive at the capital the
night before the opening Of the ses-
sion. But this year numbers Of them
have been on the scene several days
before the opening.
Tom McTague arrived today,
which was the only thing lacking for
starting the session properly.
There are also more candidates
for minor offices within the gift of
the legislature than has been known
before.
FL. Day, custodian Of the capitol
building, has been very busy for sew
eral days getting everything in read
mess for the session. The desks Of

over onto It's nose and dive headlong
to the earth-and to destruction.
Moisant's $ aeroplane was Bleriot
lmonoplane. and in addition to the
heavy engine in front of the main
planes, he had fastened tank hold
ing some IS gallons Of gasoline. Avi-
alton experts believe a sudden puff
OF wind stopped his machine in the
air, and the heavy weight ahead
dragged the light framework be-
hind it, Tipping the then useless
rear elevator toward the zenith in
derision. From this position, partly
back of the main planes, Moisant
was tipped out. clear Of the ma
chine, and struck the ground on his
head. breaking his neck. He died on
a flat car, on which he was being
rushed to New Orleans.
Hoxsey likewise was returning
from a journey into the clouds.
Cheers were going up to meet him
when his machine, likewise, seemed
to stop still, shudder, and whirl ov-
er and over to the ground. AS in TIE
morning tragedy, the rear elevator,
rendered useless when the momen-
tum was gone. f1ipped around, help
less to aid the fated machine.
Hoxsey Vainly endeayored to right
his machine by warping the main
planes and by use of the rudder.
Vain attempts these, for before suf-
ficient momentum was gained, the
structure erumpled upon the earth,
the heavy engine being torn loose.
Only few farm hands saw Mois-
ant hurtle to his death, but Hox-
|sey's end came before the Mortified
gaze of thousands r4ho had come out
in the pleasant afternoon to watch
the bird men darting here and there
through the air, shaming the very
birds themselves. In few moments,
an announcer, sadly lifting his meg
aphone, droned out the diseourag-
ing news to the still hoping crowd:
arch Hoxsey has been killed.
There will be no more flying today"
Forecasts. of fatal accident were
made in both instances. A 15-mile
wind, with gusty intervals, caused
tne attendants to shake their heads
at Moisaht, but he laughed at them
and sailed up for try at the long
distance sustained flight record and
the Michelin cup with its attendant
50, 900 prize. Death was the victor
in the long contest it has fought
with the daring Chicagoan.
Hoxsey, smiling as he had on the
day when, in a similar wind, he had
gone far into the blue to a new
worlds record for height, again
took the air. His bafograph, still
running when the crowds reached
the heap Of humanity and canvas
and broken sticks, showed the fatal
drop started when the aviator had
come down to within 563 feet of the
ground.

John B. Moisant and Arch Hox-
sey, aylators extraordinary, were
killed Saturday. Both fell out of
the treacherous air with their ma
chines-neither from vast height
and Moisant's remaining minutes
OF life were so few as to count as
naught. Hoxsey was killed instant
ly.
Moisant met his death at 9:55 a..
m. attempting to alight in a field a
few miles from New Orleans. Hox-
sey, who went into the air early in
the afternoon at Los Angeles, lay at
PIP p. NJ, a crushed, lifeless mass
in view Of the thousands who were
watching the aviation tournament.
Thus the last day of 1910, in
bringing the total number of deaths
of those who have sought to emu
late the birds to 35, capped the list
with two of the most illustrious of
those airmen whe have been writing
the history Of aviation in the sky Of
two continents.
Moisant, a Chicagoan by birth. af-
ter an adventurous life in Central
America, became interested in avl-
alton in France less than year ago.
After soaring into public recogni-
ton by his plucky fight from Paris
across the English channel to Lon
don with passenger and, later,
finding himself without a machine,
borrowing one from friend and
within 10 minutes starting on his
winning fight from Belmont park,
New York, around the Statue of
Liberty for a prize of SIC, 900, Mois-
art came to have name for fear
lessness in the air. Yesterday q
sudden puff of wind caught him
within 500 feet Of the earth, turned
his machine over, and a broken neck
terminated his career.
Arch Hoxsey, after a year of uni
form success with the Wright aero
plane, in which he had come to have
name for daring, and in which on
ly within the week had set new
worlds altitude record of 11,474
feet, and then had sailed more than
1000 feet above the highest noun
tain in California, ran afoul Of the
same kind of shifty, treacherou !
wind when a matter of 600 feet ia
the air, and a minute later the hcr-
rifed crowd. aroused from its sho k,
was rushing madly to where a bro
ken mass of humanity lay benea th a
bit Of canvas and some broken S 9ars.
Both met death in almos5 the
same manner. Each machire was
