Since Servia has definitely declared that

revision of the treaty of alliance and
will wait before proclaiming annexation
of the occupied territories and since Bull

BREAKING SUBMARINE RECORD
New American Craft Under Water TO
More Than Thirty Hours

Long Beach, Cal, June 12.-Six men
sealed up in a new type submarine boat
surpassed the submergency endurance
record on the floor of the ocean off here
yesterday. They went down Tuesday
morning at five o'clock and in a message
telegraphed shortly before noon over a
marine cable leading 10 shore declared
that they expected TO remain down until
five this afternoon.
The old record was established in 1907
by the United States submarine Oc-
topus, which remained under water
tWenty-four hours. The boat which has
established the new record differs from
other types in having gasoline motors
which by a special exhaust device are
able to run while the vessel is sub
merged without polluting the air for
the crew.

Aviator Flies from Paris
to Warsaw, $50
Miles
-----
IN TOTAL TIME
OF 854 MINUTES
Actual Speed of One Hun
dred Miles an
Hour

Paris, June 12.--The most remarkable
aerial journey ever accomplished was
completed last night when Brindeponc d.
Moulnals, the French aviator, who
started from this city this morning. land
ed at Warsaw, Russian Poland. Ills
total time for the distance of 800 XII
ometers, or $50 miles, was fourteen
hours and twenty minutes, but his
actual flying time was only nine hours
and fourteen minutes, making his
average speed 1907 miles per hour.
Even including his stops Mouinais'
average was sixtyfve miles an hour.
The Nord express, one of the fastest
trains of the continent, takes nearly
double the total time and three times
The flying time of Moulinais to cover
the same distance, the schedule showing
a running time of twenty seven hours.
The aviator left the flying ground at
Villacoublay, suburb of this city, at
$3.50 a. m. The weather was extremely
unfavorable for aviation, with gale
blowing which at times exceeded fifty
miles an hour. The first stop made was
at Wanne, Prussia, at eight o'clock,
little more than half way to Berlin.
Here the pilot rested an hour and a
half, leaving at $3.50. He reached the
German capital at 1904, landing on the
military aerodrome at Johannesthal,
575 miles from his starting point. The
wind continued violent, and the aviator
was again and again urged to discon-
tinue his attempt. AT $40 p. m. he
rose again and completed his journey to
Warsaw at 6:15.
The distance of the last stage over
the route followed by Moulinais is 355
miles, and his speed may be estimated
from the fact that he covered it in los
minutes, at the rate Of 1877 miles an
hour. This velocity was made possible
by the wind of fifty miles an hour,
which was favorable. The machine
used by the aviator is Morane- Soul
nier monoplane, equipped with an eigh-
ty-horsepower Gnome motor and has a
flying speed of eighty five miles an hour.

Heating, Fisher, Mcconnell and Ford

Walter 0'Keefe, the former BurEng-
ton high school athlete, who has played
Tor the past few seasons on the baseball
team at Lehigh university, has been
