AS notable features of the display

GREAT AER0PLANE

IN PARIS EXHIBITION

An echo of the expressed determine
ton of Frenchmen to excel all others
in the development of the aeroplane,
is found in an interesting account of
the recent international aeroplane ex-
hiDition in Paris sent to Washington
by Frank H. Mason. United States
consul-general at the French capital
says the New York Times.
This was the third such exhibition
and Mr.. Mason declares that it was
unquestionably the most interesting
and instructive exposition of its kind
ever held in France He says. it was
the object of intense and sustained
popular interest, the daily attendance
ranging from 10000 to $4,000 persons
Everything about the exhibition, Mr.
Mason says, indicated that real pro-
gress has been made in the develop
ment of the aeroplane, and that the
people have great faith in it's future.
"0f the 81 aeroplanes exhibited Is
were biplanes and 80 monoplanes.
This proportion typifies the leading
position which has been attained by
the monoplane for military purposes,

could do TO stop him.
Before the State police invaded the
ring I'm the ninth and chased the
fighters and everybody else to the
corners, Johnson had cut Flynn mp
with the same short-arm uppercuts
which wound up Jim Jeffries' fighting
career. This time, however, the
negro Just gave them enough steam

Flynn would bury himself in his

guard and mix il at close. quarters.
He did get inside many times, and
he found IL mighty warm there. John
son lifted his head back at regular
intervals with right and left upper
cuts, and the blood spattered like a
thunder shower every time Jack
landed.
johnson showed dazzling speed
when once he loosened up, but speed
was not necessary. He was I'M
touched save for tap on the mouth,
which cut his lip against his teeth,
and he was not perspiring when the
police took over Referee Smiths job.
FLYNN began butting at Johnson's
chin in the sixth round. After that
he was leaping into the air every few
minutes with his solid ivory dome
aimed at Jacks jaw. II could have
