MAY FLY TO PACIFIC
ATWOOD PLANS TO TRY FOR A
PRIZE OF S5O,0O0.
His Recent Trip from St. Louis TO

ing Aviator to Plan Greater One.
Harry N. Atwood, who has jus:
broken all worlds aviation records
with his 1895 mile trip from ~.
Louis, Mo-, 10 New York city, has bc.
gun preparations for a fight across
the American continent for the $780,
900 Hearst prize. Atwood announc-
es he will be ready to begin his trip
about Oct. 1 and that he will cross
the United States in 25 days.
He will use the same biplane with
which ne made his sensational flights
last month and will travel light, car
rying only a suit case. At present
he is working on a schedule which
must include a start at New York
city or Boston, one stop In Chicago
and may end in San Francisco or
Los Angeles, Cal. Atwood is ambi-
tious to write his name in history as
the first aviator to span the States.
The conditions governing the
Hearst flight, aside from proving a
maximum time Of 80 days and re-
quiring a stop at Chicago, permit the
fier to choose his own route and
schedule. Contestants may start eth
er from New York or Boston and
finish at San Francisco or Los Angel
es Any self-propelled heavier than
air flying machine may be employed
and any person in the world may
compete. The aviator may descend
to earth as frequently as he chooses
and make any necessary repairs upon
his aeroplane, but he may not change
machines enroute.
If Atwood succeeds in crossing the
continent, it will be one of the great
est human triumphs the world has
known. His reception at New York
by hundreds of thousands Of cheering
people will be overshadowed by tho
greeting he will receive as the first
man to actually fly across the 5000
miles of the American continent.
II have never faced more inter
esting prospect than this flight to
the Pacific OFFERS" says Atwood. Il
am anxious to get started. Even if
I should fail, the efforts will be
worth while"
Atwood did not experience sin
gle accident until the next to last
day of his recent flight, when a ring
in his engine worked loose. Repairs
were quickly made, and he was ready
tc take to the air again within a few
hours. His career from Chicago to
the eastward was frequently threat
ened by strong breezes from the
Great Lakes, but at no time did his
propeller fail to keep him in the
course.

N,rEAD BOY COMES BACK.
To the Great JSSS Of Another Boy in
Jail for killing Him.

A dispatch from SpaEtan5urg to
The State says John Webb, the eigh-
teen-year-old boy who has been a
prisoner in the county jail for ,sev-
eral days, charged with the murder
of Archie Brown, was released this
morning when it became known that
Thursday night Brown Unexpectedly
turned up in his home alive.
Brown said that on August %,
when he disappeared, he was sudden
ly seized with the wanderlust and
without notifying his family went
off on a pleasure trip. He said that
since that he had visited Columbia,
Savannah and Athens, Ga.
When last seen before his disap-
pearance Brown was walking along
the Pacolet river with Webb during
the dinner period. Both were en-
ployed at the Pacolet mill, where
Browns dinner pail was found. Webb
is said to have been somewhat of a
tramp, and little was known about
him at Pacolet.
1t was reported that he had con-
fided to a comapnion that he intend
ed to rob Brown. The rumor was
started that he killed and robbed
Brown and had thrown his body into
the river. A warrant was sworn out
against Webb, charging him with
murder, and he was committed to
Jail.
For several days so men dragged
the Pacolet river for Browns body.
If he had not turned up the mill
pond would have been drawn today
in the search for his body.
