GREAT AVIATION MEET
At The South Dakota State Fair.
Three Different Machines. Two
Flights Each Daily.

The greatest aviation meet of the
West will be feature OF the State
Fair this year at Huron. Three ma
chimes are ulder strict contract, from
the National Aercplane Company
the new Newport Monoplane and two
b'planes, Curtiss and Wright type.
Daring bird-men will operate these
machines each forenoon and after
noon, making total of six daily
fights. The remarkable work Of
Cromwell Dixon at the fair last year
will be far surpassed by the men now
under contract.
Probably the stellar attraction Of
the meet will be the flying Of the
Newport m onop ane recently
brought to America, and the only
one of its make which has been ex-
hibited in this country. Each Of
tho wings OF this machine has q
spread Of IA feet, which with the
width of the body makes a total
span Of "a feet between the tips Of
the wings. The length of the body
from propeller to ruader is about 80
feet. The propeller is directly in
front Of the engine, and sucks the
machine through the air instead of
pushing it. The body is covered with
tightly stretched cloth, tapering off
at the stern to a narrow edge, and
when the propeller obtains a speed
of 1900 revolutions per minute, the
machine slips through the air at 70
miles per hour wit, out effort.

The great speed and sensitiveness
Of the Newport make it difficult
machine to learn to fly, and without
proper landing field 1t Is more dan
gerous than the biplane. The inven-
tor, Edouard Nieport, was killed
while flying his own machine ne,.r
Paris. AS the machine stands ready
for flight, with tanks full and Tour
nier on board, it weighs about $50
pounds. %itsy
The Nieuport monoplane holds
many records. It was awarded first
prize in the French Military Compete
ton, and as result it has been adop-
ted by the French, English, German.
Italian and Russian Armies. Last
year it won the Gordon Bennett race.
1t has flown continuously for eight
hours and has covered over 500 miles
at stretch without landing.
Nearly everyone is more or less
familiar with the biplane type of
aeroplane, what it can do and did DO
at last years State Fair. This year
we have also the graceful flying
monoplane with two types of BIZ
plones thrown in for extra measure.
The accompanying cut of the mono
plane Is an accurate view, says Sec
rectary McIlvaine, OF the beautiful
sight. .... Just as saw it in Cicero
Park, Chicago, June 1st."

Quietest aftermaths of the advent of
the new year was experienced in the
police circles yesterday when there
was not one case booked as a result
of the two successive holidays. The
police blotter was clean and not
even a sick call was noted on the
ambulance book. The fact that there
we're two holidays in succession
makes this fact doubly remarkable,
as it has usually been the case that
there are many cases. mostly DRINKS

holiday. The fact that there was
nothing doing this morning was
gratifying to Chief Schramm, who
explains it by saying that the city is
growing better and respect for the
law is becoming second nature.
