The Aeroplane of Today

Albert S. Levino. in Harpcrs Weekly.
 It is almost trite to say that aeroplanes are not so dangerous as they were in the beginning Even in their early days they were not so hazardous as some of the initiated led the layman to believe. Certainly, improvements in the machines and increased skill in their operation-skin which is readily transmitted by compe- tent instructor to any physically and men tally normal man-have made for greater safety.
 Present day aeroplanes do behave we'll They are subject to easy, almost perfect control The capable pilot of a well built machine now leaves the ground without m.sgivings goes where he wills, remains afoft almost as long as he pleases. reaches his destinat tion without undue risk. and alights gracefully It required numerous mishaps, many wrecks and even some fatalities to accomplish this advance. But the death record of the aeroplane Is not worse but better than that of tho auto- mobile in it's infancy. There are now Tn active use more than 5000 aeroplanes. Since September IS, 1908. when Lieutenant Selfridge was killed. there have been, at the time of writing, 147 aviation fatalities. including those to pilots, passengers. and spectators Between 1899 and 1903 there were not over 490 automobiles in use But insurance statistics show total of more than 400 deaths due to motor car accl- dents in those four wears

Why Do We Stand It?

V illiam mglis, in Harper's Weekly.
 Go inside the hotel and reckon up the band of smiling little pirates that take care of you-head porter, porters. bell bcys, walters chambermaids, not forget- tins the carriage agent, who takes his bit from you before he turns you over to the taxicab pirate who will do you good. You've got to hand over money to every one of them, or they'll make you wish you were locked up in prison cell. In prison cell? Why, even there the man who gives up coin gets along ten times as well as the tight-wad.' .
 Yol know the meaning of tight wad. 2 don't you 1.-the poor fool who thinks that when he has paid the full legal price for anything he has paid all. I notice that the walters trades union announced the other day that they wanted all tips abol- ished and that the proprietor should pay them living wages. And did you note the vail of pain that arose from the pro- prietors? They broke into print in the newspa pers and declared they could never run their hotels that way. You bet they couldn't. They can't and they won't.
 There's no limit to the game. I never saw a cutter little set of highwaymen overcoat outside the dinins rooms of the hotels and restaurants. They're mighty polite and smiling and attentive l never grudged them quarter till found Hout they were turning oset the colas the5

When the usual round was made in the morning everything was in perfect order, but an hour or two afterwards, the portrait of d lady, was found to have been touched up in an outrageous manner. The eyes had been oblterated by the application of the end of a still-lghted cigar, and every attempet to remove the ash proved vains as even the canvas had been burnt The artist consequently had no choice but to remove his picture.

ENGLISH OLYMPIC TRIALS
Huge Fields Compete, but Re.
suits Are Disappointing.

London. May Is-All that Is best IN Brit
ish amateur athletics competed this after
noon in the eliminating trials for the
Olympic games at the Stamford Bridge
athletic grounds. There were no fewer
than four hundred entries for the extended
programme, besides sixty starters In the
Marathon race from Windsor Castle to
Stamford Bridge.
The first notable achievement of the day
was that Of G. n. Seedhouse. of the Black
heath Harr!ers, who carried of the final
of the 4OO-metre fiat race by seven yards in
1915 seconds equalling the Olympic record
for the distance made by the American run
ner. Harry L. Hilman. at ST. Louis In 1904.
J. Cookery, of the Irish-Canadian Athletic
Club. won the Marathon race. His time
for the distance was hours. IS minutes and
81 seconds. c. w. Gitsham, OF South Az
RIGA. captured second honors. and II. Green.
OF the Hernehil Harriers. finished third.
In general. the results were so mediocre
that they indicate that Great Britain has
little chance OF gaining many victories at
the Olympic games in Stockholm.
