GRUEsOME RECORD
OF AVIATION
IN YEAR
Fifty Per Cent Of the Men Fly
ing Last Year Are Now
Among the Dead
EXPERT BIRDMAN THE
ONE WHO MEETS DEATH
Crack Wright Operator Shows
Logic Of Fact Successful
at Maneuvers

Holding Americas record for en-
durance nights, enthusiastic as to the
future of aviation and expressing his
own deep interest in making his
North Dakota flights among the very
best, Phillip o. Parmalee, the crack
man of the Wright Bros. squad Of
aviators, arrived in Grand Forks Sun
day evening to prepare for the series
Of flights that he will make this week
at the North nakota state fair.
Congenial-eyan more so than the
late well known Arch HoXsey, the idol
of North Dakotas thousands who saw
him fly here last year-possessirg
much the same general appearance as
did Hoxsey, tall and slender, pleas
ant conyersationalist, and keenly
alive to the fact that North Dakotans
are deeply interested in his per-
formance while here, Parnlalee will
surely find himself just ss we'll liked
by the Flickertails as did the daring
aviator of 1910, who has since paid
the penalty of his ambitions with his
life.
Saw H0xsey's Fatal Fall.
II was only about twenty rods from
the spot that Hoxsey fell in that fatal
flight" said Mr.. Parmalee this morn
ing to a Times representative. "The
wind was blowing terrific gale at
tho time.'
"No. / don't believe the heart fail
ure theory" said Parmalee in re-
sponse to question. II believe that
Hoxsey was tired and that in some
manner he made slight mistake
81 Hoxsey's death is : something
Parmalee seemingly did not like to
talk about, and the subject was drop
ped.
The Record is Gruesome.
This flying business has gotten
past the point of being funny with
me-" said Parmalee, when the con-
versation turned. when one stops
to consider the fact that fifty per cent
Of the men who were doing the actual
flying last year are now dead, one can
readily realize the dangers that .ex-
list in the air. Such men as john
stone, Hoxsey and others have been
killed, and they are the men who
make up the fifty per cent of fatali-
ties.
The Expert Is Killed.
Let me tell you another thing
about the flying game" he continued.
1T is seldom the amateur who is kill
ed. The records show that it is the
expert nearly always who meets
death, and the reason is easily found.
-, expert, confident of his own
as&>a. dares to make flights under
conaltions which are absolutely pro-
hibitive for the amateur. BY that I
mean that an expert aviator, knowing

to fly in high winds or under other
adverse conditions. whereas the anna
teur would absolutely refuse to do SO,

New Model Different

The Wright machine that will be

greatly different from that flown by
Hoxsey last year. It is the 1911
model and could hardly be recognized
as Wright machine so far as its
similarity with the 1910 model is con.
cerned, SO great have been the
changes.
The front elevator has been done
away with entirely in the machine
Parmalee biplane did not reach the
city this morning, but will be brought
here tonight by the passenger train
route.
- Meets Thomas. McGoey -.
Naturally Parmalee is much inter-
ested In local flying conditions, and
he spent some little time with Thomas
Mccoy, the successful local aviator
during the day. The Wright man
showed a keen interest in the work OF
Mccoy, and plainly made that fact
evident.
Will Put On Anything.
Parmalee is a man of daring and
extraordinary ability as a flyer. He
declared this morning that, with the
right kind of weather conditions
North Dakota fair patrons could have
anything in the way of flights they
wanted. Spiral glides, dips, high
Nights and, in fact, everything known
to the aviation game will be put on

make the North Dakota flights sue
cessful, and to give the patrons of
the state fair their full moneys
worth.

they want said Parmalee, "and
will not give them occasion for dis
appointment II can help it"
Hard in High Altitude,
North Dakota's air is first class for
flying, and that fact will add na.teri-
ally to the success of this weeks ex-
hibltlon. Recently Parmalee few at
Salt Lake City, over 1000 feet above
sea level, and he found considerable
different conditions to contend with
there. 1t required some little time to
get up. and one one or two occasions
he found himself just skinning the
fences in getting away. Once up,
however, the flying was alright.
Mr. Parmalee is accompanied by his
mechanlst, Herbert Hazard. They
both came direct from Dayton, o.

Lieutenant Foulois Of the United
States army at the maneuvers in
Texas this year, and with whom he
made the sensational 160 mile voyage
through the air from dorado, Tex, to
Eagle Pass. He has been flying since
June, 1910, and has been one of the
most successful men in the business
THE aeroplane will be an indis-
pensible feature of war hereafter"
declared Parmalee this morning. Il
believe the flights that were made in
Texas this year absolutely prove that
fact.
Likes Lieut.. FOulOis.
"Secretive methods of the govern
ment in connection with army man
euvers have been responsible for the
suppression of great many facts in
connection with the flights that were
made in Texas. There was lot of
real hard work. Lieut.. Foulois, him
self through three campaigns, small
in stature and mighty fine fellow,
learned the flying of a Wright BIZ
plane from myself, and we made
great many flights together.
In our trip from Lorado to. Eagle
try, there was only one place at
which we could stop, that being Sui
livan's ranch, half way between the
two points. And tell you it looked
mighty good, for we had already been
In the air an hour and fifty minutes
when we passed over it.
1t Looks Good.
There's Sullivan's RANCH Foulois
said to me as we sighted it,
Yes, and it looks mighty good,
doesn't it,? had to respond.
But we kept on our way and when
thirty-five miles from Eagles Pass,
we could see it. That gives some
idea Of the distance person can see
from an aeroplane, and we were
never higher than 1900 feet above
the ground during the entire trip.
Used Wireless from Machine.
In all of the flights in Texas, we
carried wireless telegraph instru-
ment, and we were always in COM
munication with the army quarters
below. This goes further in indicat-
ing the remarkable features of the
aeroplane in war service, and the
amount of good that it will be able to
accomplish. There is no question
but what the machines will play
great part in war hereafter.

either Of the occupants can run it.
That is. the machine can be operated
from either seat, and on our trip from
dorado to Eagle Pass, we frequently
changed of. while the other would
amuse himself in shooting sand hill
cranes. firmly believe that shot
about 100 rounds of ammunition, and
while the speed Of the areoplane for
bids great accuracy in workmanship,
still I was successful in bringing
down several of the birds.
. Used Seventeen Gallons Of OIL.
"On our trip carried twenty-five
gallons Of gasoline, but used only
seventeen gallons. More motive DOW
er, Of course. was required on that
rip because Of carrying passenger
md the wireless outfit. The Texas
endurance flight was the worlds rec
lrd up to about q month ago."

knowing that should be attempt to,
that he would meet with trouble.
The Solution is Easy.
"At the big aviation meets, If a high
wind prevails, it is the expert who is
selected to make the flight. If there
should be squad of from six to eight
birdmen attending, it is only natural
that the best OF the number should
be asked to make the fight on that
date, and there is the solution of the
trouble.
Always Had Bad Spill.
"And another feature also enters
into the game. The expert, whenever
he falls, always gets a bad spill.
That is because of the fact that his
flights, in which he meets with acci-
dents, are generally made under ad-
verse conditions, as l have said be-
fore. The amateur, on the other
hand, selects the best of weather and
conditions, and he, consequently, does
not take the chances that a man
thoroughly familiar with the game
will assume.
I'm the case of Aviator Mars, who
met with such serious accident in
Pennsylvania the other day, we have
a concrete illustration of that fact.
1t was a wonderful escape for him"

appeal most forcibly to an audience
and stir the sensibilities and risi-
bilities to the highest pitch. This is
the twenty-fifth season of "The Old

the same as last season. In fact, the
management of the company believes
in keeping the same company that
made the early success of "The Old

A SOrCly Afflicted Family.

The family of N. B. Host, near New
Evansville, has been called upon to pass
through deep waters of af1liction during
the past three months. A daughter, Miss
Bertha died on the llth inst, from ty-
phoid fever after an illness of three
week duration, hers being the second
death to occur in the family from that
disease within the past six weeks, the
mother being taken about that time. Miss
Bertha was one of the bright and highly
esteemed young ladies of the community,
aud school teacher of much promise.
The father is the last victim of the disease
but is reported to be growing better, and
is expected to recover. Nine OF the fam
lid were stricken with the disease at one
time.
Another victim of the disease was For
est Alexander, whose death occurred on
Thursday last, 10th inst Mrs. Alexander
is daughter of Mr.. Host and near
neighbor. She and her husband had
been at the Host home to assist in the
care of the sick, and he was stricken only
a few days prior to his death. He had
been troubled with weak heart and 1t
was this weak ness which caused his death
as he had been able to be up and around
only the day before. Death came sud-
denly while he was talking with his wife.
Feeling faint he sat down upon the edge
of the bed and expired almost instantly.
His age was 26 years, 2 months and 3
days. He was united in marriage with
Miss Nellie Host six years ago, who sur
wives him, also his father and a half
brother. They had no children. The
funeral, which was private, was held on
Friday, Rev. NJ. B. Riley officiating, and
interment was made in the Washington
cemetery.
The people of the community in which
these families reside have been very
sympathetic and kind in their ministra-
tions to the afflicted ones, and have done
much to alleviate the sorrow and distress
that has come upon them, and it is pleas
ing to note that the kindness thus shown
has been and is greatly appreciated. 1t is
also matter for qualification to learn
that all the afflicted members are again
able to be up and around with the ex-
ception of Mr.. Host himself, who, though
still in critical state, bids fair to recover.

CARSON.
Ralph Carson died In New York City,
at $3.50 Sunday morning, March 10, 1911,
of pleuro-pneumonia after a short illness.
He was taken sick ten days before his
death and within few days was placed

became critical he was removed to the
Rockefeller Institute, where he passed
away, despite the best care of skilled
specialists and nurses.
John Ralph Carson was the son Of John
T. and Anna (Sawyer) Carson, and was
born in Tionesta, August 2, 1894. All bis

year ago last November he went to New
York and was living with the family at
$50 Columbus avenue. During the past
year he was employed as window trim
mer in the store of J. NJ. Gliding & Co.,

Sudden Death Of Charles weingard.

Charles Weingard, one of the respected
residents Of Tionesta township, was
found dead at his home on the Pigeon

He had been in Tionesta during the day
and seemed to be in his usual good
health. He had gone out to chop some
wood and when his wife went out short
time later she found him lying face
downward and dead. His death was
probably due to heart trouble or suffoca-
tion after fainting spell, as he was ly-
ing in a pool of mud. Mr.. WeiDgard was
aged about 62 years. His sudden death
was great shock to the entire commun-
ity. A more extended notice is neces-
ssrily deferred until next week.
