splendid flight to-day over the Medi-
terranean Sea from Tunis, Africa, 10

ing covered a distance of about one

tude record of 1902 feet at Tunis.
Describing his fight, Garros said to-
night:
"As soon as | left Tunis | caught
sight OF the French torpedo boats from
Bizerta. They were cruising at equal
distances across my path. That it was
impossible for me to lose my way IN
the trip was agreeable.
Although somewhat cold. | was
obliged TO rise to great height 10
avoid the air currents, and I was GLAD
when l sighted the coast of Sicily and
found that all the population Of Mar
sala "a little TO the south Of TrapanD
had come out TO welcome me. Their
boats dotted the roadstead and fur
nished a picturesque spectacle. The
occupants cheered and waved to ME as
I flashed past overhead. / landed a
little inshore and continued here"
Rome, Dec. 1S.-The italian and
Rome aero clubs will give a banquet in

Sipp who was the owner and man.

ness. His evident anger at police
methods was not because of the graft
he had TO pay. but because he had not
been allowed TO open a new hotel which

the crowd represented by Dorian. Sipp
swore that Fox, who had delivered to
him the ultimatum of the boss" that
he could not open the new hotel, which
was the remodelled Harlem Central,
had explained to him that the reason
was that the proposed new hotel wouli
be too much competition for the Har-
lem hotel in which Nick Hayes was
interested"

should be given an immediate chance
to deny it,
The alderman finally Withdrew his
motion, however, when Mr.. Buckner
assured him that Hayes would be sub

Sipp laid bare in the most matter of
fact manner the methods OF collection,
not only OF the regular monthly con-
tributions. but also Of special assess
ments," one of which he said, he
brought down on his own head when
he took a trip TO Europe. The IDEA
seemed TO be that the police decided
that If he could take a trip TO Europe
he could certainly stand an extra graft
assessment in the form OF what he de-
scribed as friendly collar"
