FATAL ACCIDENT

PARIS, April 29.-Joseph Vedrines,
the most famous and popular aviator
in France, was probably fatally in
jured as result of a fall of his mono.
plane this morning at St. Louis, sub
urb, while flying from Douai, in the
department of the Nord, to- Madrid
Vedrines was anxious to create new
record for airmen by flying from
Brussels, Belgium, to Madrid, Spain,
in "a hours. He started from Paris
Thursday on his way to Brussels, but
becouse of motor trouble he decided
not to proceed further than Douai, for
repairs to the motor today. Accounts
differ as to the cause of the accident,
some saying the machine hit a tele.
graph pole, and others that train hit
the monoplane. He was taken to
Paris, where physicians say his skull
is fractured and that he can not live.

berry was committed in the two gen
eral stores at Fort Rice on Saturday
night Of April. goth, the goods were
cashed In a cooley south Of town.
On Wednesday they were located by
Marshall Watson and IN assistant.
who, as result of their watch that
night, discovered Ord Whiting drive
up to the place and start loading the
goods, when he had his rig about
half filled Watson quietly placed
revolver under Writings nose and
asked him to explain. Thursday he
was arrested and taken to Mandan.
Whiting denied that he had stolen
the goods but in the excitement Of
his first surprise he gave away the
fact that he knew who did it. The
general opinion prevails that he was
used as a tool. ~..
He is a young man and has a wife
and three children living on a claim
three miles south of town.
The stores robbed were those of
Wead Eros, and the Schmidt Drug
and Mercantile company. Hams,
bacon, sugar and flour were taken.
Wead's store was quite thoroughly
ransacked and there was the heavi-
est loss. Only the back room Of the
Schmidt store was entered. The slid
ing door was forced, evidently by
someone who had q thorough knowl
edge of the premises.

NEW YORK, April 29.-Beyond dis

This is demonstrated by resistance to
unfavorable conditions and the con-
certed manner in which certain stocks
are taken one by one and advanced.
Quite a number of specialties have
been made more active at higher Ag-
ures. Such movements have several
motives behind them. Stocks fell into
strong hands during the decline Of
1911, and holders are naturally desfr-
GUS of distributing = portion Of their
surplus upon as profitable basis as
possible. Conditions have certainly
shown much improvement during the
last few months, and thoroughly just

where. the present road, known as
the north road to Wilton, turns north,
it is impossible for farmers to get
