MISS RUTH LAW
FAILED TO FLY
CONTRARY WINDS PREVENT FA-
NOUS LITTLE AVlATRlx FROM
COMPLYING WITH HER ScHED-
ULE YESTERDAY.

Owing to contrary winds Ruth Law
was unable to carry out her schedule
which was advertised for yesterday
afternoon. The day broke clear and
balmy and by 200 p. m. hundreds of
pleasure seekers had gathered on the
beach near the aviation headquarters
for the express purpose of witnessing
the flight. Numerous parties from
the interior and points along the coast
found their way to the aviation
grounds in automobiles which lined
the beach for miles in both directions.
That fight was not attempted by
Miss Law could not be attributed
through any fear on her part, and
while she insisted upon an exhibition,
her managers remonstrance finally
won out and the flag on the staff in
front of the hangar lowered.
Several persons had expressed a
desire to fly as passengers of Miss
Law and these were especially disap.
pointed when the Wind came up and
spoiled their fun. AS was later stated
by the manager, Miss Laws excep-
tionally long record as an aviatrix
without single accident could not
be put in jeopardy for the sake of at
tempting to maintain a schedule
against great odds"
The street car service to and from
the grounds yesterday was the best
and hundreds of passengers were
carried over the line.

MAY APPOINT TAFT
 SUPREME BENCH

Washington, Jan. 1.-The most eventful matter of the week has been the apparently reliable report that President Wilson Is now considering slating ex-President Iaft for the position of chief justice If the United States suprmee court. A stGrrl oI dlsap- Droval is noted in both Democratic and Progressive papers, the former positively re fusing to accept the report as in any way authentic As the rumor has not been con, irmed by either Taft or Wll9on, It may have been only feeler thrown ont tc gauge public sentiment, which in this instance seems among the Progressives and Demo crats to be unmistakably hostile
 In addition to renewed attacks upon l aft, the Democratic papers are submitting lengthy lists of Democratic judges whose fame is nation wide as able !urists and who are under no such cloud as Tatt
 Chief Justice White has reached the age limit, and it is to fill the expected vacancy that the President IS now said to be consid- ering the name of Mr. Taft. It has been the life ambition of the expresident to at some time fill the position of chief justice of the United States supreme court
 The report has stirred up considerable criticism of such a possible appointment, and the President is included in the criti- cism All the hard names that Taft re- ceived while he was candidate for Presi- dent at the last election are now being re- vived to show Prsdent Wilson how the ap- pointment of a reputed reactionary would be regarded.

ART OF SLED-BUILDiNG

George Dreibelbis is building sled that is the fond dream of the designer and con structcr It will revolutionize the art of b1iIding sleds in Alaska The &ed in ques ticn is an entirely new model, built cn lines that have never before been attempted in the North The material used in the con struction is native birch worked down by hand, oil-G1ished and tempered. The body Cf the sled is fitted with a limousine top merely as a concession to Outside ideas in palatial runabouts and in compliment to the Mercedes and Pauhard people. Among the new ideas expressed in the makeup Is an automatic brake that throws itself auto
 aticalIy when the forward end of the sled $ dipped as in going down hill thus adding the necessary drag when it is needed. The bow Is fitted with a trail finder that also works automatically, being thrown into gear as soon as the sled attempts to leave he trail A Iikeometer is concealed in the boot that operates a music box placed just above the brake, that is set in motion as soon a. the sIy, Is travelling five miles per hour, and lays continuously as long as the team maintains this gait or better, and stops as soon as the pace falls below this speed. The bed of the sled is a freless cooker of the latest improved model, and a light oiled silk tarp forms cover for the load in the daytime, and can ba converted into a sleep ing tent, q dining room or boudoir in one minutes time when night overtakes the driver on the trail
 Patents have been applied for on all the new ideas, and the tout ensemble" is alled a DrimushDus.

 On the other hand, there are those who look upon the contemplated action of Presi- dent Wilson as a graceful tribute to the man he succeeded and it is thought that should the appointment be offered Mir Taft would gladly accept it. He has always been more of a jurist than politician, and the posi- ton of chief justice of the United States would be eminently fitted for him, in the estimation of his friends.

The others involved are Carlo Tresca and Adolphy Lessig The men were sentenced to SIX months in Jail The opialon of the SUI preme court holds that the mere fact that a person walking along the public streets in peaceable and quiet manner is fol lowed by a crowd is not sufficient to jus tify his conviction of being a dsorderly person on the ground that he obstructed and interfered with other persons lawfully on the streets.
