She is not taking any short cuts, but is going by way of Los An geles, which, it will be conceded by all students of geography, is consider ably off the beaten path between the two cities. Yet even this is not re- markable. But she is doing all this on horseback, accompanied only by dog. She is braying the mountains and the desert, the long nights with ous shelter, the long days with no food save such as she may carry with her; the fires in the timber the floods in the arroyo.

WILMINGTON, DEL, Oct. IT,
Governor Wilson shifted his attack In
speeches throughout Delaware today
from the third party program to Fresi-

governor apoiogized repeatedly for the
necessity. occasioned by engagements
that could not be broken. of cam
paigning while the man who has been
hts only active opponent is incapaci-
tated.
MY thought" the governor said,
many times. is constantly OF that
gallant gentleman lying In the hos
pital in Chicago. Mr.. Roosevelt did q
vast deal to wake the country up to
the problems that now have to be set
tied. and that he should have been
stayed in his attempt to discuss the
settlement OF those questions by a
hand OF violence Is a thing which
every American must deeply deplore
and feel ashamed Of"
Again, the governor said:
II rejoice to believe that America fs

should be any citizen of the United
st~tes that should raise his hand
against the peaceful. the orderly. the
Just, mo open determination Of pub
lie affairs"
The candidate said that II was with
reluctance that he continued his
speaking campaign at this time. ASIDE
from his reference to President Taft,
he confined his utterances largely to
the politics OF the State OF Delaware.

Two Airnen Shoot {,
Ducks AS Machine
Sails Through Air
LINCOLN BEACHY AND LIEUTEN
ANT TELL OF KILLING BIRDS
WITH THEIR REvoLvERs.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 17.--There Ia
nothing by the Baron Munchausen
to beat the story which Lieutenant
l.. II. Brsreton and Lincoln Beachcy
tell today about their exploit of duck
hunting In their hydroplane.
These two water birdmen were
cruising in the air on the Potomac
this afternoon when they ran into
flock Of ducks, whose fight speed
average fifty miles an hour. The hy-
droplane was also going at that rate
but at right angle to the direction OF
the ducks.
Lieutenant Brereton and Mr.
Beachy whipped out their pistols, Mr.
Beachy guiding the plane with his
left hand. There was a fuseiilade and
four OF the ducks dropped to the wa
ter.
The lieutenant and Mr.. Beachy then
demonstrated the uses Of the hydro
plane as a retriever. The aviators
stopping their machine as soon as the,
could. retraced their flight and the
hydroplane was dipped down to the
water where the ducks were taken
In.
This Is the first time that the aero.
plane has been utilized for genera,
aerial hunting purposes. The wild
ducks Of the Potomac have lost al
confidence in themselves.
