Next Tuesday, just seventeen years
ago, Samuel Pierpont Langley, the pio-
neer inventor of the aeroplane. made the
first successful flight with model ma
chine, in the history of the world. May
6-of each year has been set aside by the
Aero Clubs of America as the day to
celebrate the real awakening Of the
world to the wonders of the aeroplane.
and semi-officially Uncle Sam will par
ticipate in this third anniversary of the
great scientist and inventor. Memorial
exercises will take place in Washington
on that day, in which the government
VIII participate. The Smithsonian In
stitution will take leading part in the
celebration, because Prof. Langley was,
for many years before his death. secre-
tary of that institution. The principal
event will be the unwilling OF tablet
commemorating Langley for his twenty
years of study and experimentation
which cleared the way for the rapid
development OF the aeroplane and to him
can be traced directly the invention and
the wonderful achievements Of the air.
ship as we know 1t today
On May s, 1896, for the first time a
machine of mans construction sprang
from the earth and swept continuously
through the air like a living thing. Zep-
pelin. Wright, Curtis, Atwood are names
synonymous with airship, but to COM
paratively few is the name of Langley
known. Yet aviation as it exists today
Is the result~~of the dreams and long
days and nights OF tabor of Samuel Pier
pont Langley. In honor of this pio-
neer of the great universal highway.
a day has been set aside for annual
memorial exercises. May was chosen
not because il was the day of his birth, |
but because on that day he saw the frun
of his many years'-labor. On the same I
day a tablet made by John. Flanagan. |
the famous New York sculptor, will be |
unveiled under the direction of the |

! Hesse found that the famous health re-
sort of Nauheim was in a condition much
/ like that of Saratoga when, in 1909. Sthe
| newly appointed State Commission took up
| its work. The place had been allowed
| to run down, and the waters were not
above suspicion of contamination After
making a thorough investigation, the
government loaned s2,OOO.000 to the town
of Nauheim, which owned the springs,
t. provide lighthouses and other improve
ments. Although the money was lent
on very hard terms, about one-third II
the principal had already been paid back,
and the springs are becoming a source Of
much prosperity to the municipality.
Reputation Is Increased.
The town of Carlsbad was more for
tunate, being able to. finish it's own i'm
provements without aid from the state.
As a result, there has been an immense
increase in the reputation of that long
famous spa, with proportionate- aug
mentation of the number of visitors. In
fact. the business of running a mineral
water health resort on an, up-to-date
plan has proved so profitable as to war
rant the recent issue of bonds for an
additional s10,Ooo,oo0 to pay for further
betterments.
Vichy is today by far the most profit
only one of the resorts named where
the water is suited for bottling pur-
poses, or where any attempt has been
made to build up a trade in bottled
water. The Saratoga waters are de-
clared by the State Commission to be
like those of Vichy. rather thans like
those of Nauheim. With bathing facili-
ties provided and other improvements
carried out under modern methods. il is
confidently believed that the money in
vested there will bring into the State
profits as large as those received by
the French government from vichy
The most curious point, perhaps. is the
extent to which the waters of the vari-
GUS springs differ in composition-for
which reason they possess various medic
inal values. Thus the water Of the |!
Star spring is a mild cathartic.' That of |
the Governor spring is rich in iron. That
Of the Magnetic spring has a, wide rep
utation for helping rheumatism and nerv- |
Gus troubles, and that of the Old Red !
spring is famed for its good effect upon |
certain skin diseases. The spring at |

white people was that Of High Rock, to /

Rugged Life in Big Logging Camps Of New Hampshire Finds

stream of the Connecticut River, others

| Ihthese twenty camps LOO men are en-
ployed, and in some over 500 horses. The
cost of building one of these camps is 81 500
to $3.50, as IL takes the whole crew of
men three weeks to build them, besides
using the horses. This, Of course. includes
the expense of food and other things dur
ing that time.
The men are well provided for in the
way Of clean. warm bedding and excellent
food, although much depends on the cooks
In the latter matter. While the cocks are
all good. some are excellent. They have
everything to work with, and better pre-
pared food cannot be obtained in the coun-
try or in the world than some of the
cooks put out.
Food IL Not Excelled.
This is one Of the most important fea-
lures of successful camp and goes
long way toward keeping the men salts

tin pie plate, drink your tea from a tin
pint basin, and your knife and fork are

cares the woodsman for the tinware when
he has an appetite that a king might
envy?
When company is in camp they dine
with the deadheads. This class includes

Immediately, IL the visitor is a wom-

Seven Log Buildings.

Renewal of Arbitration Treaty
with Foreign Countries
Held Up
RATIFICATION
EXPECTED SOON
England Contends That Objection Was
Made Before Expiration Of Pact and
Lapse Will Be without Effect.

WASHINGTON. June 6.-Upon OBJ
lection of Senator Chamberlain, who
contended that renewal of the arbitra-
tiOn treaty with Great Britain might
compel submission of the Ptnama ca
nal tolls controversy 10 The Hague,
the Senate late Yesterday temporarily
postponed action on renewals with
Great Britain, Spain and Italy Re
newals of these treaties, all three Of
which have expired within the past
few days, were favorahly reported
Yesterday by the foreign relations
committee, and the Senate went into
executive session to consider them.
The treaties with Italy and Spain
were promptly ratified, but when that
with Great Britain was reached. Sena-
tor Chamberlain objected. After some
discussion, it was agreed that if one
was to be held mp. even for a short
time, the other treaties should not BE
ratified, and bv unanimous consent the
former action was reconsidered and
all went over.
Great Britain s protest against the
4 provision in the Panama canal act
i granting free tolls to American YES
+ sells was submitted several months ago,
+ long before the expiration of the arbi-
tration treaty. Consequently the
\ British contention is that whether the
convention is renewed can have no
bearing upon a proposal TO arbitrate
this question; that if the question wa.
one for arbitration, the United State,
is as much bound to submit it to arbi
tration as it would have been ii the
treaty had not lapsed
1t was not believed last night that
any of the three treaties would b,
held up long, although there may 3,
some debate in executive session wheI
they are taken up again. With the in
dorsement Of the foreign relation
committee behind them and the fac
that they existed for five years, thei
ratification was generally regarde,
only a matter of time.

Attempts to Wreck Trains on
Bennington Division of
Rutland Road
THREE MEN ARE
HELD ON SUSPICION
Two Are Foreigners Who Had Been
Drinking Liquor and the Other a
Young Tramp Fortunately No Pas
sengers Were Injured in Collision.

RUTLAND, June 6.-Bold attempts
We're made before daylight yesterday
morning to wreck both the north and
southbound sleeper trains over the
Bennington division, at a point near
some woods, which is a tramp rendez-
vous two miles south of this city. The
trains ran about an hour apart
Three men are held on suspicion by
special railroad policeman John w
Brislin of this city. The purpose of
the attempts, which did not result in
any serious damage TO roadbed or roll
ing stock, nor injury to human beings,
IS not known.
The southbound train was the first
over the line. The locomotive. while
running at high speed, struck five ties
which were piled on the track at a
point where the track is built up 80
feet above the level of the surrounding
! fields. Some of the ties were thrown
80 feet, but the jar to the train was
not great, passengers say.
! Officials of the railroad had not
| reached the scene when the northbound
/ Tram, Nue III huiiduu at A0u a. M
struck a handcar loaded with tools the
wreckers had secured by breaking into
| the car house in this city.
As soon as the train reached the
station here Officer Brislin was sum
moned. Lying in a field over the fence
| from the spot where the wreckers mad,
the two attempts, Brishn found tw,
| foreigners who could not speak Eng
lish. They had a bottle of liquor, bu
were not drunk, he says. The Office
met walking the track a young tramp
who, he alleges, could not give a salts
factory account of himself.
Brislin brought the foreigners to tn,
city Jail and gave description of tn,
third man to detective. This office
went to the spit and found the younl
man hanging about
