DARING AVIATOR
FLIES OVER MOUNTAINS

Arch HOxsey Flies Nearly Five Thous.
and Feet over Mount Wilson near
Los Angeles.
Los Angeles, Cal Dec 29.-Arch
Hoxsey of Pasadena. Cal, holder of
the worlds aeroplane altitude record
--11,474 feet-today flew over Mount
Wilson, the highest peak of the noun
tain range in the Los Angeles valley.
Under ideal weather conditions he
scared 10.005 feet into the sky and
cleared the crest of Mount Wilson
with 1900 feet to spare.
Lieut.. Vernon Boiler of Fort Whip-
pie, Ariz, and several other army
officers, who are here to see the
flights, asserted Hoxsey's performance
point new way of transporting
armies across mountain ranges. They
said that 1000 biplanes could trans
port an army of 10000 men across
mountains as high as the Alps in a
day.
Just before the close of the after
noons events the crowd got another
thrill by an accident, which nearly
cost the life of Hubert Latham, the
French aeroplane expert, who made a
valiant attempt to save Glenn Martin.
California novice, when the latter
lost control Of his machine and was
blown into fence 10y IL 20-mile wind.
Two or three thousand men and wo-
men were within a few feet of him
when he dashed into the wire fence
just in front Of the grandstand.
Latham was in front of the judges
box when Martin brought his machine
to earth.
Latham saw the danger and, rush
ing out, caught hold of the machine
and desperately tried to turn it away
from the fence, but miscalculated it's
speed and was dashed to the ground
The running gear OF the machine,
which weights 900 pounGs, missed
Latham's face only by few inches,
and Martin and his biplane sped into
the fence with force enough to break
the iron posts upon which the wire
was stretched. Martin was hurled
over the fence, but was unhurt

An announcement that will be re-
ceived with pleasurable anticipation

sentation here of dramatized version

''The Firing Line"
There is no novelist Of modern
times who enjoys the wide popularity
of Mr. Chambers. His celebrated

ing Chance" "The Younger Set" and
The Danger Mark" have been more
widely read than any other work OF
fiction published i'm this country and
are easily accorded by publishers the
highest rank among the best sellers" p"
They have also reached, in serial
form. millions of readers through the
columns of The Saturday Evening
Post.
The dramatization of "rhe Firing
Line" is the work of Richard Walton
Tully co-author with David Bclasco
of "The Rose of The Rancho and
is the first that has been accepted by
Mr.. Chambers of any OF his books,
though many versions have been sub
mittd to the author by we'll known
playwrights. but they nave failed to
reach the standard demanded by him.
The many readers of this absorbing
ly interesting novel, will readily alp
preciate its dramatic possibilities, and.
as particularly high class produc-
tion will be presented and careful
ly selected company of we'll known
metropolitan players Is promised the
event should prove to be one of nota-

THE PANAMA EXPOSITION

k&r4s& &fka b p RftHsA Rsft sS E,ErEsA $sIk &AA%
To the Editor of The Advertiser:
While on several occasions small
eXpositions have been held at different
points in the South, the really great
expositions have gone to cities like,
Philadelphia, Chicago and st. Louis.
When these great expositions took
place there was no city in the South
capable of handling successfully en-
terprises of such magnitude, hence no
serious attempt has been made to
bring one to this section.
Now, however, the situation is diff
ferent. The development of New
Orleans during the past decade in all
the essentials Of modern metropolis
has placed the South in position of
ability to meet such demands and the
opening of the Panama Canal has fur
niShed the opportunity to do il. There
fore, New Orleans having made all
the preparations necessary to enable
ing up great exposition is now ap-
plying to Congress for official authori-
ty to organize one to celebrate the
completion of the Panama Canal.
The country should celebrate this
great achievement in order the more
effectively to bring it to the atten-
tion of the commercial world and to
emphasize the enhanced influence, dig
nifty and power which the successful
completion of this enterprise has
brought to the United States. Con-
sidering these things New Orleans,
being the nearest great sea port to
the Canal, and having more intimate
business and social relations with
Panama and the adjacent countries
than any other American city, is the
place at which the exposition should
be held. San Francisco is making a
desperate fight to secure Congression-
al recognition, her purpose being pure
ly selfish-the advertisement of Cal
ifornia
The Canal is so remote from San
Francisco-further for instance than
New York is from London or Paris,
that Panama Exposition OH the Pa
cific Coast City would resemble very
much the play of Hamlet with the
Prince of Denmark omitted from the
programme. The San Francisco
steamships make Panama in twenty
one days, while from New Orleans the
present schedule is four and half
days, although it has been announced
already that with plans presently ma
turing the voyage will be reduced to
three days. San Francisco is so re-
mote from the senter OF population.
$500 miles, that comparatively few
people East of the Rocky Mountains
could visit an exposition held there.
How many, for instance, could go
from South Carolina? New Orleans
is only 500 miles from the country's
center of population and has far bet
ter transportation facilities by rail,
river and ocean than San Francisco
has.
Mr.. Editor cannot you help us. The
| Legislature of South Carolina will
meet January 10th, 1911. strong
editorial in your influential newspaper
urging that body to endorse New Or
leans and to request your senators to
support the measure locating the eX-

appreciated by the friends OF the
