o. Gordon Reel, state superintendent of highways of New York, has notified the Touring Club of America that state road contractors have been instructed not to leave tarred stone road beds un- protected by a top dressing between the close of hours of work on SatJT- days and the beginning of work on Mondays, a period during which mo- ter traffic is generally the heaviest.
 Many members of the Touring club and other motorists have complained of late that this practice among con tractors has been the cause of break ing shields, marring the finish Of the cars, and in some cases injur1ng drivers and passengers. The crushed stones. left unprotected by top dress ing, fly up as the tires pass over them, even when a car is moving slowly, and if a car Is moving at 15 miles an hour or faster, there is a perfect shower of stone.
 It is to be hoped that the highway authorities in other states will follow the example of Supt. Reel of New York by issuing similar instructions to their contractors, as complaints have been made by motorists touring through other states besides New York.

kimball Won From Salem.
The ball game yesterday afternoon
at the fair grounds resulted in a Z to
2 victory for Kimball. 1t was any
Ibody's game up to the fatal seventh,
but in that inning Smith of Salem
was knocked out of the box and Slick
who took his place was pounded
hard for a total of foul II The
lead gained by Kimball rather dis
iheartened their opponents and in the
last two frames the Salem batters
went down in one, two, three order.
In the opening inning, Salem tried
hard to send a runner across the
plate. The first man up got to first.
reached second on a poor throw and
managed to find third, but no hit was
forthcoming to bring him home.
kimball was more fortunate. Her
first MAJ received a pass to first, was
sacrificed to third and arrived safely
home on a scorching Jingle through
shortstop.
The second inning was uneventful,
pitcher Phflaum of Kimball refusing
to allow a mar to reach first, while
kimball was unable to advance a
runner past the initial bag. In the
third, Salem's error was responsible
for another tally. A clean hit and a
clever steal placed a nan on second
who succeeded in registering on d
bad overthrow. Salem failed to do
anything in this frame and the score
now stood 2 to 0 against her. Nothing
of interest happened in the fourth
but in the following frame a screaming
three Dagger to the right field to-
|gether with a neat little single saw
|Salem's first run entered in the score
olumn. Salem boosted hard to tie the
score at this stage of the game but
Phflaum of Kimball was working in
great shape and struck out the next
three batters. kimball was successful
in bringing in another tally in their
half of the inning. In the seventh her
first man smashed a three Dagger
high I'VE the right fielder's head and
to put a check upon further slaughter,
Slick of Salem was sem into the boX.
His offerings, however. were gladly
taken and before the last mar was
retired four scores had been taken
down. Salem had already added an
other tally TO her list in this inning
but it was her only addition and the
final count at the end of the ninth
was Z to 9 for Kimball.
The batteries were Phflaum II
Feltis for Kimball and Smith. Slick
and B%arnhardt for Salem. Otterson OF
Riverside umpired.

FLIGHT WHEN IT CRASH.
ED INTO \ LARGE
BON.

Five minutes after Aviator Castory
had risen into the air for his first
public flight at Mitchell, his huge hi.
Iplane lay wrecked and crippled on the
ground below.
|, Descending gracefully at the close
OF a short, successful flight above the
eastern portion of the city, the bird
man crashed heavily into an unseen
obstruction and the lower plane of
the fair machine was badly shattered.
Her pilot escaped without a bruise.
The accident was witnessed by all
those who we're within easy distance
of the disaster and it brought to an
abrupt termination the first days
flight of Aviator Castory. However,
the damage done was far from SER
ious and it is confidently expected
that the necessary repairs will have
been completed before the time for
today's flight arrives.
Ran Into Trap Box.
Shortly before six O'Clock the avi-
ator left the ground. Immense crowds
of people had been anXiously await
ing in anticipation of the event and
as the beautiful bir | sped swiftly over
the earth on it's start and then scared
above the heads of the multitude, its
progress was viewed by thousands of
w%atchful eyes. With his machine run
ming in perfect smoothness, Castory
sailed away to the northeast of the
fair grounds and then described a
huge circle on his return journey.
Dropping rapidly to earth preparat-
DRY ito making a second and longer
flight, he lit at a point about 200
yards from where the biplane had
first rested. and sped westward in
this direction. In his pathway parti-
ALLY concealed by the surrounding
ithrong, was a clay-pigeon trap owned
the aviator beheld the t~reachesous OBJ
stacle and, unable to werve aside in
time, the machine crashed upon it,
disabling temporarily the lower plane.
At the instant the catastrophe oc-
CURED, a p%erceptible start OF horror
came upon the breathless spectators
but it was seen that no injury had
been sustained by the pilot of the
aeroplane, a huge sigh of relief was
audible and in a few seconds a lively
scramble took place on the scene for
souvenirs of the wreck.
Work was Immediately begun by
Castory and his mechanician to repair
the injury and though it is to be deep
ly regretted that the afternoons en-
tertainment was thus married, yet ev-
%erything possible will be done in or
der to make the flights of today and
tomorrow the best kind of a success.
Judge Smith to Make Ascent.
1t is announced that Judge Frank
b. Smith, of this city, has decided to
make the flight in company with
Aviator Castory Saturday afternoon.
Yesterday the judge expressed a de-
sire to make "a trip in the flying ma
chine. and after a conference with Mr..
Castory as to the possibility of going
up, the aviator gave his consent.
