says, to spend his holidays with her
and her family.
Apparently in the best of spirits,
he started out to buy the tickets for
a theatre party at which he expected
his niece and her child would be his
guests. He was to have returned in
a short time. But nothing has been
heard from him since he left the
house.
Bishop comes of we'll known New
Haven family. His father, nearly a
century ago, was a hotel keeper in
the Elm City, one Of the best known
bonifaces of New England. The
young soldier won his corporalcy as
a reward for bravery during the civil
war. His brother was prominent in
naval affairs for many years. He re-
turned to New Haven at the close of
the war. and resided there until 1891,
when on July 81, he decided to re-
join a number Of his comrades who
had preceded him into the Soldiers
home.
Mrs. Root describes the missing
veteran as 76 years old, with light
complexion, closely cropped snow
white hair. gray moustache, he was
Of small stature, but despite his ad-
vancing years, he retained his bodily
vigor out of all proportion to his age.
But she fears that If he is abroad in
the storm Of today, he may perish,
and she has asked The Farmer to
appeal to its readers to be on the
watch for the old man.

Aeroplane Which Is to Fly
Here, Wednesday, Will

morrow.

Because Of the heavy roads due to
the big fall of snow, the flying ma
chine of Frank Paine. which was due
to arrive here this afternoon in prep
aration for Paines flights on Wednes-
day. has been held up. The big ma
chine was to have left Mineola. L. L..
this morning on motor truck. but it
was deemed advisable to wait until
there is a. let UP. in the snow fall.
big change has been made in the
program Paine has been in the city
for the past few days and has ad-
vised those who have the flight in
charge to run the event off in the
afternoon. It had been originally
planned to start the flight at 10 in the
morning. Paine says the winds are
more favorable for a flight in the aft
ernoon than in the morning. Another
good reason for holding the event In
the afternoon is that the morning
hours. though it is legal holiday,
people in the city, and most inconven-
lent for visitors. a large number of
which are expected to invade the city.
Arrangements have been made with
the telephone company to communi-
cate with the various factories half
an hour before the rising of the ship
in order that the whistles might be
blown
Following his flight in this city,
Paine intends to go to North Caro-
lima where he is under contract to
make a number Of flights. He in
tends to sign up for the big race
against Aviator McCurdy from Key
West to Havana. Paine will shortly
endeavor to make the trip from The
Palisades across the Hudson river to
New York for the sum of $1,000.
Paine's machine which will be used
here Wednesday is a strictly MADE in
Bridgeport outfit He figures that
when the local flight is over it will
cost him something like $1,S00.
It is anticipated by the committee
that before Wednesday the Paine
purse will be considerably swelled.
They had anticipated that the people
of the city would contribute literally.
To date there has been slightly less
than $3.50 subscribed. Other cities to
secure such a flight have willingly of
fered purses Of $4,000.

to the fund since the list published
last Thursday are: Board Of Trade.
