AVIATOR DID NOT FLY.
Negauneo Man Who Wanted to Fly
Here Has Mshap.

There was "A disappointed crowd at
Teal Lake this morning to watch the
initial flight of Negaunee's monoplane,
says the Marquette Chronicle. 1t was
taken to the lake at 5 o'clock and le-
spite the fact that it was known but to
the newspaper representatives of the
city and a few invited friends, there
was quite a crowd on hand.
1t took some time to get the airship
that went wrong was the engine, but
this was only trivial matter to what
occurred shortly after The engine
was gotten i'm working order and the
aviator. Elmer Lassard, who built the
machine. was seated i'm his place al
ready for the flight. when the propel-
Ter broke The propeller is made of
laminated wood, that is made of layers
OF wood. which are glued together. lt|
seems that the glue used was not
strong enough to stand the force of
the wind caused by the propeller when
It attained its highest velocity. Mr.
Lassard said IL would take about two
days 10 replace the broken parts when
he would again attempt To make a
flight and Is satisfied that nothing
would he wrong at that time. The
morning was ideal for a flight There
was scarcely a ripple on the lake. II
was the intention of Mr. Lassard to
start on the beach and shoot on tho
waters of the lake from where the
machine would rise like "A bird.
The fact that the Night was fail

stains, fruit stains, ink stains, blood stains
and grease spots are easy for it. While the
soaped clothes are soaking in cold or luke

ticles. A light rub in rinsing sends them
flying, leaving the clothes white and pure.
