GROSS EXAMINATION
 0F AUSTRIAN PARROT
He Had Heard Somebody Say Franz Josef Would Live to Be
 Hundred

VIENNA, May 30.--An amusing story is in circulation here which shows how the Viennese regard the relations existing between the Elm peror Francis Joseph, aged eighty three, who is i'll with bronchitis, and the Archduke Francis Ferdinand, the ir-presumptive.
 The story goes that a policeman recently found parrot in q tree out side the Belvedere, the Vienna palace of the Archduke Francis Ferdinand. As the parrot freely used the names of various august personages the chief of police was informed and he ordered the bird to be brought before him for cross examination. The par rot talked freely, using the most violent eXpletives but always winding up with the phrase Hell live to be hundredi
 Thereupon the chief of police said there was only one man in Vienna to whom the parrot could belong and ordered the bird to be taken back to the Belvedere, The story is said to be very popular, as everybody knows that the emperor and his heir cor dially dislike one another.

This question is one that has been brought up within the various Temples through out the United States. from time to time for several years, but the mat ter has never been so thoroughly considered by this Temple as it was at this meeting. A very interesting discussion took place after which resolutions were adopted by the Temple recommending that action be taken toward obtaining such recogni- ton from Supreme Lodge Knights of Pvthias.
 Another interesting feature of the evenings session was the report from the Secretary of the Temple that he had been corresponding with the Jer- ome Lodge.

RACING AEROPLANES OF THE FLYING CORPS
Three Hundred Mile Course From German Garrisons to Common
 Center

BERLIN, May 30.-The officers of the Army Flying Corps have just participated in d competition of an unusual nature. Three aeroplanes, each piloted by an officer started simultaneously from the garrisons of Cologne, Posen, Konigsberg, Halber- stadt Metz, Strassburg, Darmstadt. and Graudenz (East Prussia) for Doberitz, the exercising ground of the Guard regiments stationed in Berlin and the neighborhood. Each garrison is about three hundred miles from Doberitz, and the officers had to follow an exactly prescribed route. Each officer was accompanied by an observer, who signalled with newly adopted system at certain points on the way, and dropped messages when passing over certain towns. The weather was wet and stormy, but each squadron reached Doberitz in-
 tact, and no accident occurred.
 The best flight was made by the Cologne officers, who reached Dober- itz together three hours after leav- ing Cologne, having made an average of 103 miles an hour. The Cologne pilots had the wind with them most of the way, while those from some other parts. of the country had a hard struggle against wind and rain. The military authorities are ex-
 tremely pleased with the results achieved.
