REX SMITH b|PLANE
MAKES TEST FLIGHTS
Exhibition at College Park
With Fred Aubert at
the Helm.

Tests OF the new Rex Smith aero
plane were made at College Park late
yesterday afternoon. It was the first
time the machine had been given any
thing but stationary motor test The
government biplane made a single
flight in the morning, but the main
shaft of the magnetic was broken and
the machine was laid up for the re-
mainder Of the day to undergo re-
pairs. The new Curtiss machines that
have been expected at the park since
the first day Of July have not yet ar
rived.
OF New Design.
The new Rex Smith machine is de-
cfdedly different from the old one
which made a number Of flights here.
1t is headless biplane. The lower
plane has very slight dihedral angle
to aid in maintaining tho stability.
The main planes are thirty-two feet
over ALL and at the ends Of the upper
plane there are flexible wingtips that
serve the purpose of ai1erons in main
tanning the balance. 1t is an exceed
ingly well built machine. The motor
is eighty horsepower, and each time it
has been tried out has run without a
hitch.
Fred Aubert of the Rex Smith force
was the aviator yesterday. 1t had been
intended to give the machine to Capt.
Paul Beck for its first trial, but he was
out of the city, and ALBERT was given
the place. He made a number Of runs
about the field at varying speeds, and. as
the weather conditions were perfect Mr..
Smith allowed him to make some
straight-away hops"
The first run Of the machine on the
ground developed a speed of forty-flve
miles an hour, with the throttle only hall
open. The result was so good that the
machine was then cut loose and went into
the air ten or twenty feet, coming down
In a long glide that showed buoyancy
and decided ease Of control 1t was in.
teresting to note that though this was
the first flight Of the machine, it needed
no changes and adjustments after the
flight, Capt. Beck. who is expected to
give the aeroplane more thorough try
out. probably will return to Washington
from Hammondsport this afternoon OF
evening.
On the last run of the afternoon one
of the lower planes touched the earth.
but the damage was slight and will be
repaired in time for fight todav

other to Rockville. but in neither case

and was badly beaten in one instance
by mother. the telegraph and the
police
Accompanied by seventeen year old
Dorothy Koerth Of 1112 25th street
northwest, Harold B. Hersey, aged
eighteen years, a clerk in the Library
Of Congress, went to Baltimore yester-
day. and was just about to complete
arrangements for the license with the
clerk when the police halted the pro-
ceedings. having been notified by tele-
graph by Mrs. G. Koerth, the girls
mother. that she was under age.
Youth Only Objection.
TIE clippers were brought back to
Washington late last night. Mrs. Koerth
declared she had no personal objection
to young Hersey, whom her daughter
had known for some time, but that she
interfered solely because Of her age,
claiming a girl Of her years does not
know her own mind. and that hasty
marriages Of that sort invariably lead
to the divorce court.
Young Mr.. Hersey said this morning
he believed the interference In his mar
riage plans was unwarranted, as 1t was
his understanding the laws of Maryland
required that a girl be but sixteen years
old to be eligible for marriage. He admits
he is but eighteen, but declares he had
the consent of his parents to have the
ceremony performed. He added he In
tended to look into the law on the matter

official declaring written evidence to that

clare they will return to Rockville within
a day or two with the required written
consent, while Mr.. Hersey and Miss

ISSUES FIRST PERMITS.
Chief Of the Fire Department Begins
the Enforcement of New Ordinance.

Chief of the fire department Henry
Isermann is laying his plans for the
enforcement of the new gasoline ordin-
ance recently passed by the Common
Council. Officials Of the department
are making personal visit to the deal
ers in gasoline and other oils and Civ
ing them a final warning. The first
two permits for the storage of gasoline
were issued to Dan O. Head and W. j..
Birmingham and it is thought that
within q few days nearly all of the
automobile owners who store gasoline
will comply with the law and secure
permits. The enforcement of that por-
ton of the law providing for the bury
ing of the tanks and the building of
brick projections for them will prob
ably not be taken up until after the
frost is out of the ground as it is de-
clared that it would be impossible for
some of the dealers to comply with
the ordinance at this time. The Chief
of the fire department has served no.
tice on all people interested that the
law will be strictly enforced.

The usual big rush of valentines
went through the postofice this year
but if the valentines have not dimin-
ished in quantity they have sure
Iy improved in quality. The
so called comic valentines es-
peeially those in questionable taste
or positively obscene have been CON
spicuous this year by their absence
from the mails and the work of the
censor of the postofices has been light
This Improvement may be due in part
to the fact that the government Off
Gals have been more active in the last
year or two in enforcing penalties for
sending obscene matter through the
mails but most people will prefer to
believe that it is rather due to a
change of public sentiment in regard
to the "comic' valentine.
