DICK RETURNS
 ID CHINATOWN
Mayor of Phoenix Celestial Abode is Back After a Year Spent in China, Whence He Took His Wife on Visit

After an absence of eleN on months, China Dick. mayor of the Chinese community in Phoenix, has returned to his headquarters in this city. Glad that he made the trip but more pleased that he is once at "home,' Dick yesterday greeted his many friends with a pleasant smile and display of his famous gold teeth.
 When Dick left Phoenix he was accompanied by his wife, who was then suffering with asthama, but who in the change of climate in the Or tent has seemingly begun to improve. With them went, Wing Ling young Chinese boy, born in Florence and sent to Phoenix for Dick his god father to educate And Wing Ling in the course of his Education in the Orient married a pretty little Chinese girl in Canton Hi Ping. His bride too young to leave her parents. waits in the Flowery King dom for the day when she too. may come to this country and become an American citizen.
 China is indeed a new country said Dick yesterday. since she be- came a republic the Chinese have taken on a progressive spirit and are heart and soul in sympathy with the new regime. There is scarcity of money just now which is likely to extend over seven or eight years but I think it will all come out right in the end and that the awakening will make China one of the greatest countries in the world
 T found that the Chinese are be- coming quite AmericaniZed. They have cut off their cues, in fact I don't remember of having seen single que while I was over there. Ihe dress affected now is quite Amerl- can, and the tailors are having to keep their eyes open for the new styles just like the American tailor has to in order to keep abreast of the times. The dress of the women of China is also becoming changed. although perhaps the change is not so radical as that of the men

SALT LAKE CITY, June 14.-Away off on the Uintah reservation at Yer nal. Utah, nearly 100 miles from a railroad, an Indian girl has written an opera, with her people as the theme and motif. It is one thing to write an opera and another to have it produced Zitkala Sa, a full bIooded Sioux, has accomplished both these things.
 When "The sun Dance" was sung in Vernal, Indians and whites drove in from forty miles around to hear it; and having heard it, they pro- nounced it a triumph. So enthusi- astic were the home folks in and around the reservation that plans were discussed for producing the opera in other cities in the state, in cluding the metropolis, Salt Lake City. Efforts are being made to have the opera sung in Salt Lake City during the week of the National Education Association, July , to II.
 "The Sun Dance" as it was pro- duced at Verhal in March was not altogether the work of Zitkala Sa and her copper-hued brethren of the Uintah reservation Professor Will liam F. Hanson, of the faculty, and white as well as Indian students of Uintah academy played important roles in the preparation and singing of the piece. It was, in fact, part of the academy work.
 This fact should lend to it an ad ditional interest for persons engaged in educational affairs Considering VernaFs remoteness from a railroad and the outside world, the perform ance of "The Sun Dance" and the evident intelligence and sympathy notable in it's composition are con- sidered remarkable by the few urban ties from Salt Lake City and Den yer who witnessed it.
 Of Zitkala Sa, the gifted Indian girl who was largely responsible for
 The Sun Dance" one of these en- thusiastic urbanites has written: "She is one of those rare spirits whom God sends, now and then, among Iowly people to lift them to higher planes. She has assimilated the best ing any of her deep appreciation of the spiritual ideals of her own peO- pie" She was educated in the best of Indian schools, where she special ized in music. She was 'finisher' at the Boston Conservatory of Music Zitkala Sa has written a book of In dian legends also,

 PLAN ANOTHER STRIKE
Hold Meeting and May Not Return
 to Work This Morning.
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsPATcH1

CHARLESTON, June 16.-(Mon- day)-Word came to Charleston early this morning from various sources that the miners at work in the mines at Paint and Cabin Creeks voted at a mass meeting yesterday to renew the strike which for a year has con vulsed the coal field. According to reports reaching Governor Hatfield, the meeting at Eskdale, in the mountains above Kayford, voted not to return to work this morning.
 The miners were at work under an agreement framed by Governor Hatfield which was agreed to by the miners and operators. MutteringS of discontent have been heard from the miners for several days.
 Information has just come to me from the Paint and Cabin creeks,
 said s. B. Montgomery, counsel for the miners, (which makes it practi- calIy certain that the strike will be renewed this morning. The suspen- sion will be general at Cabin creek but I cannot say as to what extent Paint creek is affected. Feeling ran high at the meetings yesterday it is understood Four miners were beat en up by guards at Cabin creek yes- terday and the men are very indig nant The operators have failed to live up to the agreement proposed bv Governor Hatfield which provided that the strikers were to be taken back to work without discrimination

A

Zitkala Sa's collaborator in compo-
 sition of The. Sun Dance" Profes- sor Hanson, was peculiarly fitted for the delicate task of completing the score, musical task that had to be carefully done in honor to preserve
 the true Indian melodies and color. MT Hanson for years had been mu- sical instructor at Uintah academy. At this institution, more or less isolated in an Indian country. he has
 had abundant opportunity to study
 the life and customs of the redskins.
 This has been a passion with him. Through many summers, he has been a welcomed guest of honor at the re- ligious festivities of the aborigines. At these rites, his temperamentaI
 soul greedily drank of the mysticism, the wierd native songs and the at mosphere. So he had almost as deep
 an understanding of the people of
 The Sun Dance" as ZitkaIa Sa.
 Carefully they prepared lyrics and score of The Sun Dance" and then
 began preparations for its initial
 production in the academy auditor
 ium. For arts sake, Indians and
 whites rehearsed arias and en sem
 Dies. BelnS part Ot the academy music work, there could be no color distinction. The whites painted their
 faces and copied the moves of the genuine Indians.
 No brilliant first-night along far
 off Broadway, which the people had never seen, could possibly be as big
 an event relatively, as the first pro-
 duction on any stage of Zitkala Sa's
 and Professor Hansons "The Sun Dance" Along the Uintah they talk ed for weeks of the forthcoming premiere. It was foreseen that one
 nights performance could not possi-
 bly, afford opportunity to all the peo pie of the reservation and surround ing territory to hear it. So a run of three nights was booked and in Vernal a run" of three nights is the l equivalent of a year on Broadway.
 The first-night audience was criti- cal as are first -nighterS the world

OF THE
 RAzEN DECISION
On Aviation; Wright Vie tory But Start of Another Fight by Glen Curtiss; Brief Resume of Aero plane History

What effect will Judge Hazen's de- ciSion granting a permanent lnJuhc- tion to the Wright brothers against Glen H. Curtiss and all other aero plane makers and flyers of other than Wright niachines in America. have on aviation in America, is the question that is uppermost in the thoughts of hundreds of persons who are engaged in aviation as a means of livelihood or as a sport.
 There is no doubt that the Wrights were the first to make successful flights in heavier than air ma chine driven by motive power, and even secured the patents for that ma chine, yet they did not create that machine entirely themselves. All thev did was to assemble the machine after various parts had been created by such men as Cayley. Lilenthal. Pitcher. Octave Chanute, Voisons. Graham Bell, Selfrdge and Langley.
 Resume Of Aviation History
 The first aviator in history was Icarius who was supposed to have made for himself wings of wax and feathers and to have winged his way into the heavens ana NlSlLPt llle Va - riO,Is gods of Grecian mythology and was punished for his temerity by being cast into the sea which was afterwards known as the Icarian sea In A. D. 349 a Moslem fanatic cast himself from the church of St. So- phia in ConstantinOple trusting to a pair of wings supposed to have been given him by Mahomet. the result to the pavement leading to the Mosque was such as to cause the authorities to issue proclamation forbidding any further attempts at emulating the heavenly hosts.
 In 1490 a Capuchin monk construct ed d machine with which he made several flights above the city of Oporto. Portugal The success of these flights aroused the envy of the members of the inquisition who promptly arrested the inventor on a charge of intimacy with the devil and on being found guilty he was put to death on the rack.
 The study of aeronauticS languish- ed until the MongOlfier brothers in vented the aerostat or spherical bal loon which held so long the suprem-

acy as aerial vessels. In 1894 Sir Francis Cayley derived the rule by which the present day designer of aeroplanes definitely fixes the point of SuspensiOn of his machine He also discovered the curve that is now used in the ribs of all machines. In glider or motorless aeroplane and in stalled his CoaChman as pilot. But owing to the breaking of control le vers the coachman was precipitated to the ground and sustained a broken leg which put an end to further ex- perimentS.
 In 1S47 StringfelloW and Playfair, both members of the Royal Scientific Research Society of London, built single or monOplane type of aero plane which they equipped with a small model steam engine and they launched it from a wire. The model ran along the wire for several feet and then, to use the language of the original report, made as fair and pretty a flight as one would wish to see.
 Shortly after these experimenpk Playfair died and Stringfellow not having sufficient capital was forced to abandon the experimenting.
 The next man of note to take up this fascinating and elusive science was Otto LiIenthal of Munich, Ger many, who had spent many years studying ornithology and collecting data on migratory birds for the Uni versity of Leipsic Lilenthal decided that men could not follow faithfully the bird design in the future craft of the air but that a design similar to the box kite was the safest for the human race to use. His theory of the wing warp and rudder control is the same as that embodied in the Wright plan. Lienthal was killed while trying to glide in a bad wind storm and aviation again went into partial oblivion
 During the year 1890 Lieutenant R. M. Pitcher took up the work where Lilenthal had laid it down and but for the fact that a suitable light power plant had not been invented would have been the worlds first aviator. While experimenting with a steam driven model in a small en- closure Pitcher was killed
 Soon after this time aviation was being studied in France by Clement Adler. in England by Hudson Maxim, and in the United States by Octave Chanute and Prof. Langley. All these men contributed their quota to the new science.
 It was not until 1900 that the Wrights became interested in aviation and then through the columns of the Scientific American, they wrote to Chanute requesting information regarding his experiments and Chan ute and his assistant, Herring. who was afterwards an associate of Glen Curtiss. wrote them giving them the data which had taken Chanute so long to acquire.
 The Wrights did not build their
