Less Mortality in Aviation.

Less Mortality in Aviation.
Paris Correspondent of the New York
Sun.
The following statistics show that
the mortality due to aeroplane acct
dents is decreasing:
In 1908 five aviators flew 100 hlo-
meters and one was killed.
In 1909 fifty aviators accomplished
flights of a total distance of 100000
kilometers and three aviators were
killed. a
In 1910 800 ayiators made Nights.
The total distance covered was $780,
600 kilometers and the number OF
deaths was twenty-nine.
In 1911, 1,500 aviators made flights
totaling 100000 kilometers and sew
enty-eight aviators were killed.
In 1912 $500 aviators flew over a
total distance of 20,000,00O kilometers
and 14O aviators were killed.
These figures show, briefly, that
there was one death for every 1900
kilometer covered in 1908, while in
1912 the mortality had dropped to
one death for every 100000 kllo-
meters.

why diamonds Are Costly.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.


Take a carat diamond which, as it
comes from the South African mines
is worth less than $40, add SO worth of
gold and you produce 5000 ring. The
difference between the $13 of material
and the price paid by the purchaser
in a store, or $1s7, goes to workman
ship and profit, but nearly all to the
latter.
The Germans have decided to reduce
the output of diamonds in their mines
to 1000, 600 carats in 1914. They pro-
duced nearly a half moro than that
this year and the entire lot was sold
for about S10,000,000. They are doing
with diamonds exactly what has for
years been done with anthracite
putting a limit on the output. Dia-
monds lose their charm even for
Americans, who buy three-fourths of
all that are mined, when they get too
common.
Hence the thrifty English and Ger
man syndicates take good care that
the market shall not be flooded. A
diamond imitation would create as
much havoc in horseshoe curve" on
opera nights as an imitation of paper
money would do in our banking
circles.

WIKI TX EXPLAINS CIVIL WAX
CHANCES INncoLoRADo
John Reed, magazine writer, who
left Villas army in Mexico to Join
Don MacGregOr's army on the Hog
back" near Walsenburg, Col, was
at Hull House yesterday with Judge
Lindsey and the Ludlow tent colony
women.
Reed explained why the whole
state of Colorado may be touched off
into civil war any day now:
Both militia and strikers are sup
posed to give up their guns. The
only men permitted to carry arms are
the federal troops. That is the pre-
sumption. And it is only presump-
ton.
Both sides have undoubtedly hid
den guns where they can get them at
a few hours notice.
''The miners don't like the ar
rangements under which the federal
troops operate. The federals have
promised protection to all scabs who
worked in the mines before the Lud-
low outbreak.
The federal officers have orders to
allow no strikebreakers to be import
ed. But any man who viii swear that
he was employed in the mines pre-
vioUs to the Ludlow massacre can
go to work.
This is a bad arrangement. 1t
gives the mine owners a chance to
keep their mines partially running
and from day to day adding new
strikebreakers
'Fhis point will be specially called
to President Wilson's attention by the
party going to see him in behalf of
Colorado"

JUDGE PETIT GETS AFTER THE
POLfTlCS-PLAYlNG PRESS a:

POLfTlcS-PLAYlNG PRESS ::
Judge Petit yesterday got busy
with newspapers that forget their
functions and play politics. His blow
was aimed at the Chicago Examiner,
but from the tine of his voice he
struck all newspapers that play the
unfair game.
Last week States Atty Hoyne
started an investigation into re-
port that certain people in the Grim
inal court clerks Office were accept
ing money for favors. The investiga-
ton hit at one deputy clerk, James
Mullen, because a negro made a
statement that Mullen had taken 500
for arranging bond.
Then the Examiner came out and:
said that openly in Judge Petit's
courtroom States Atty Hoyne had
said that Mullen was an ex-convict.
Mullen then went to Judge Petit and
asked for some sort of trial, some
sort of square deal.
The judge agreed he was entitled
to that and started probe into the
Examiner story. He summoned Har-
ry Friend, who represented the
Hearst paper in the Criminal Court
Bldg.
He told Friend he was not going
to try him yesterday, but would give
him until today to answer. He said
he was of the opinion that it was
time for some public official to get
after the newspapers that deliberate
ly printed untruths in order to play
politics. He announced that he
would go as high in his probe as he
found necessary.

It is considered quite the fashion to or. ganlze bowling parties, composed of both sexes. during the seasons for indoor amusements. and there indulge in the healthful recreation of bowl. ing; there is nothing that cements friendship between the sexes as rec ollecuons of amusements shared in common where all take a part as thev do in bowling.
 One of Chicago's lady bowlers says:
 Bowling is no longer considered merely a sport but a most beneficial exercise and women may indulge in it as well as men with the same benefit.
 Of an the indoor sports, I do not know of one that offers both the phv- sical and mental stimulus that bowl ing does. Thank goodness, it is no longer considered bold or vulgar for woman to frequent a public bowl ing alley and indulge in this enjoya. ble exercise.
 For the woman whose time is talk en up in earning her livelihood. bowl ing is indeed a blessing. because once you learn the games it fascinates and you need not be told that your health win be benefited by It. as you will conclude, whether it is or not, you enjoy the game and the physical benefits are a secondary considera. ton.
 While bowling is a pleasure, bowl ing as a for moi exercise should be practiced regularly"
 Women are now competing with the men in this form of exercise, and 1t is DO longer wonderful for a wom- an to defeat a man as 1t is not the strength, but the skill, that wins.
