ROBERT J. COLLIER PLANS
TO FLY ACROSS ATLANTIC
Publisher Building a Hydroasroplans,
Marblehead Hears.

Robert J. Collier. the New York pub
Usher, 1t is said, will attempt to cross
the Atlantic ocean in the fall In fly
ing boat equipped with a 200 horse
power engine Of French design and
capable Of 100 miles an hour or more.
The hydroaeroplane Is being con-
structed at the Burgess-C -Curtiss aero
plant, Marblehead, Mass, with much
secrecy 1t will be larger and nearly
twice as swift as the craft construct
ed for the navy department recently,
which has made forty successful
flights. 1t will cost between $4,000
and $4,000.
MI. Collier. 1t is said, told the design
ers that he wanted the craft merely
for sport, but his intimate friends say
that he is bent upon attempting the
transatlantic flight He has been to
Marblehead several times In the past
few weeks and will try out the flying
boat over the harbor In about two
weeks. The machine will be entirely
finished by the middle Of July.
The flying boat, 1t Is said, will be the
largest and fastest hydroaeroplane In
the world. A special twenty cylinder
Anzani engine, with 200 horsepower.
has been imported at cost Of $4,000.
It is made almost entirely of alumni
ium, weighing about 700 pounds. The
gross weight of the machine, including
the weight Of the aviator and pas
senger, will be 2,20O pounds. The
planes are forty five feet In length from
tip to tip and are made Of special var
nished linen.
They are seven feet apart and sup
ported by a single line of uprights Of
steel, with steel wire bracings, resem-
bling cables on suspension bridges.
The propellers have eight foot blades,
made of solid mahogany, set at right
angles, making four blades. The en-
CINE Is situated between the planes, be-
hind and almost two feet above the
head of the operator. It can easily be
turned over by wheel arrangement
without necessitating the operator
leaving bis seat.
Besides carrying a tank with a ca
pacity of fifty gallons, there is room in
the craft for another tank Of the same
size. This would give Mr.. Collier suf-
ficient gasoline to carry him across the
ocean.
The air craft will sit lightly on the
water and in this position can make
from sixty to seventy-five miles an
hour. It Is unsuitable, and this, with
its speed, removes most Of the danger
Of descending to the water in flight
All parts Of the flying boat have been
finished, and 1t will take about two
weeks longer to assemble them. The
craft resembles the naval flying boat,
but is several feet longer, and its en-
gine will have three times the horse
power.

STUDENTS LEARN BY DOING.
Each Must Show Fitness Before De-
Il Gliding Upon Profession.


Hampton institute is founded on the
knowledge that the common task and
daily round are means of grace and
q source of culture and intellectual de-
yelopment.
Is building needed? Masons and
bricklayers must mix sand and cement;
carpenters must make doors and win
dow frames; painters, tinsmiths, plumb
ers, steamfitters, all must take their
turns before the building is completed.
The lessons Of the students stand In
cement, brick and plaster, in wood
work, tin and iron. Theories learned
In classroom these tradsemen apply at
the building, and the facts gained at
the building they carry to the class
room.
The facts are considered as valuable
as theories. Things are ranked with
books. Each student has his work In
the life of this great family, and every
student must carry a vocation away
with him.
This is the system of Hampton. The
boy or young man who comes to the
school with scanty knowledge Of the
three RS and geography. with scantier
funds, If possessed Of credentials and
character, Is given chance. He must
win his spurs before he can choose his
life's work or begin training as farmer,
teacher or tradesman.
Few boys enter with sufficient knowl,
edge or funds to begin their work for q
life vocation. Yet no boy Is turned
away from Hampton because Of his
poverty. A year OH the large farm, a
year in the office or on the grounds of
Hampton for the boys or year In
laundry and kitchens for the girls, with
careful coaching ut night in reading,
composition, arithmetic and geography,
gains the funds and academic standards
necessary to begin their special train
ing as tradesmen, teachers or farmers.
The bugles blow at 80 In the morn
ing. In the day that follows eleven
hours Of work and study are crowded
into the lives Of blacksmiths and car
penters, five days of the week. The
day which is hailed as holiday or half
holiday in other schools, at Hampton
lis called "workday." 3d.. .......
Upon this day all boys and girls are
given work outside their shops or fixed
positions in kitchen or laundry to help
them further in earning their way
through the school. At Hampton 1t is
q punishment to deprive one Of work,
for there all useful work Is means of
support and advance.

A garage for baby carriages is to be

Miscellaneous Subjects, Printing, Sen
atorial Apportionment and Municipal
Courts of Chicago.
Immediately took hold of the Jim
Grow bill aimed at the Colored people
and checked the progress of the inter-
marriage bill introduced by Mr.. Karch
i and had it recommitted to the Com
mittee on Miscellaneous Subjects and
of which he is a member. Finally
killed the bill in the committee room.
Killed the two inter-marriage bills

Mr.. Poorman. Appeared before the
Judiciary Committee, contended for
the preservation of the rights of his
people and succeeded In having the
bills stricken from the calendar.
Killed the Infamous full crew bill
in the House and put to rout the
strongest lobby for the passage of a
bill that ever appeared on the floor
of the legislature.
Passed the bill appropriating $685.
900 (without dissenting vote) to
commemorate in the State of Illinois
the 50th anniversary of the emancipa-
tion of the Negro with an exhibition

bills he passed and was honored by
the entire membership of the House
with unanimous vote on both prop
ositions.
His seven weeks in the legislature
stands unequalled by fifty per cent of
the members Of the House who had
four months lead on legislation.
His clear-cut appearance at all
times, affability, display Of shrewd-
ness and ability, coupled with dip
lomacy and his bulldog courage in
winning his seat, won for him the ad-
miration and respect of the entire
membership of the House and Senate.

The children finish in the graded

man" to send them away to the north.
In the north the dazzle and dash Of the
life at its height are too much for them.
They are delighted, yea, intoxicated.
They never return to the quiet little
cottage on the farm; hence the story
Of three generations Is woven into this
music and interpreted to the audience
by a band, an orchestra and a glee
club. ......
Not altogether unfit Is the student
band for the mission which the former
Illinois bandmaster sets for himself.
Many Of these students are raw re-
cruits fresh from the farms, villages
and homes where life Is daily enacted
as Captain Smith seeks to stage 1t.
Though the task of drilling them into
musicians Is a hard one they never
theless bring to their instruments an
understanding of and sympathy with
the life of their music. They are not
musicians by trade and never will be;
they are fifty of the 1900 students who
come yearly to the school for trades Of
one kind or another and who pick up
music incidentally. IM
The present tour is the third one Of
the kind the band has taken and by
far the most ambitious. Those pre-
vious were satisfied with twenty, thir-
ty or forty stops. In each case the
manager, ). d. Stevenson, has had re-
peated demands to extend his time and
Journey. On this trip he is endeavor-
ing to meet all the demands Of cities
along the route.

Guthrie, Okla. - The appearance In
this city on Wednesday evening, June
25, Of the Tuskegee (Ala.) institute
band was the occasion Of much en-
thusiasm among the music loving pub
lie. The schedule of this band, under
the management Of the well known J..
D. Stevenson, covers seventy-four cit
les and towns In fourteen states. The
stop here was the twenty-first in the
present series.
Under the direction Of Captain N.
Clark Smith, formerly bandmaster Of
the Eighth regimental Illinois state
militia, the student band plays large
ly melodies and folk songs Of the col
ored people interpreted and arranged
for band music. In handling this mu-
sic Captain Smith has something more
in view than the mere applause Of the
populace. He wishes rather in the
main to teach the beauty and dignity
Of Negro music. Lest through the
symphonies and variations Of the band
the audience should miss the real in
depreciation of the melodies Captain
Smith has thrown on the canvas the
story Of "Steal Away" that the audi
ence may glance up at the picture OF
series of pictures and read there the
story Of the struggles Of the old folks
Of fifty years ago seeking to steal away
to the valley to pray. Z. Z 9
Thus glancing at the picture the au-
dience can then interpret the band
music. But this is for the older people.
