MILITARY FLIERS SET NEW
RECORDS FOR DARING FEATS

The one new thing that has been
definitely proved by the experience
of the European war thus far, is the
value of the aeroplane as a military
arm" says the December Popular
Mechanics Magazine, in an illus
trated article without the flying
machine-the bird shaped 'Taube'
craft of the Germans, the high-pow
cred mOnoplanes of the French, and
the slower but steadier and none the
less efficient English biplanes-nO
such tremendous bodies of troops
could have been handled. no such ex-
tended battle lines have been con-
trolled and directed as has been the
case in the great war
The reports Of observers near the
battle lines daily tell of daring eX-
ploits of the airmen of all nations.
Ingenious methods of signaling the
position of the enemy's troops make
it possible for these courageous fliers
to locate with accuracy the position
of the enemy's forces and direct the
gun fire of their own armies accord
ingly. The simple method of signal
ing is for the airman to fly directly
over the enemys position and when
vertically above the point which it
is desired to attack to let fall long
strips of tinsel. which glitter in the
sunlight as they descend and are
visible for miles. Observers within
the airmen's own lines have their tel
escopes and range finders turned
upon the flying scouts continuously.
When the tinsel drops, the range
is Instantly obtained, and the guns
aimed accordingly. In dull or cloudy
air, smoke bombs are used by some

of the forces instead of the tinsel.
For code signals a glittering disk
suspended by wire number of
feet below the air craft is used. BY
swinging this disk, the airman can
signal as though it We're a flag, using
the dot-and dash wig wag' code
The German observation balloons,
derisively called 'sausages, by the
allies because of their peculiar shape,
use this wig wag' code. One of the
most thrilling air battles reported
from the field centered about one
of these sausage balloons. An
chored at a height of 1000 feet, well
within the German lines, the observer
in the balloon was watching the
French advance and signaling back
to his commanding general. Two
French airmen were detailed to at
tack and destroy the sausage. Fly
ing at a height of mile above the
two armies, they pounced down upon
the observation balloon from above,
bent on puncturing the gas bag and
putting it out of commission. Two
German aeroplanes rose in the air
and flew to the defense Of the 'sau-
sage A Krupp aeroplane rifle from
within the German ranks took part
in the engagement, the gunners at
tempting to bring down the French
machines without injuring either
their own aeroplanes or the balloon.
Finally, so many bullets tore through
the envelope of the balloon that it
collapsed and with the aid of daring
and skill, the French fliers sue
ceeding in rising high above their
German foes and escaped back to
their own lines, their work completed.
Such incidents as this are typical
of many aerial engagements. Nor
does dare devil aerial bravery begin
and end with the aeroplane men. The
crews of the Zeppelins and of the
dirigible balloons of the allies are
also called upon for exhibitions of
reckless courage. While patrolling
the French coast to see that the way
was clear for the landing of the
British expeditionary force, one of
the English dirigibles was disabled
by the breaking of a propeller blade.
Two members of the crew volunteer
ed to undertake the hazardous feat
of putting on a new blade without
descending. While the diriGble
foated 1000 feet in air, these men
climbed out on the slender frame
work. unfastened the broken pro
peller and dropped it into the sea,
and put the new one in place with
out mishap."

MINES WILL
Be RE0PENED
IN ARKANSAS
TROOPS WILL GUARD EMPLOYEES
WORKING UNDER FRANKLIN
BACHE AS FEDERAL RECEIVER
OF THE PROPERTIES

Fort Smith, Ark, Nov. 16.-Within
the next twenty-four hours United
States troops in Hartford Valley prob
ably will be guarding employees. of the
Bache Denman mining interests work
ing under Franklin Bache as federal
receiver of the properties. L. S. Judge
Frank Youmans Monday issued an or
der giving the receiver additional au-
thority to operate certain mines con
trolled by the company The applica-
tion of the receiver stated that he had
a sufficient number of men to start
operation which was necessary to pro
tect the interests of the properties and
creditors.
The order of the court provides for
the operation of mines known as the
Griffith mine, near the Prairie Creek
No. 4; the Beck and Keifter mine, the
mines of the Hartford Coal company,
and mine No / of the Mammoth Vein
Coal company located at Frogtown.
The last is about a half mile from the
present camp of the United States
troops at Prairie Creek and is expect
ed to be the scene of the first actiyi-
ties
While Mr.. Bache declined to dis
cuss the courts order other than to
say he was ready to proceed to work,
it was stated that non-union miners
have been assembled at Fort Smith
and at Clarksville, where a non-union
mine now is in operation. These men,
it is believed, will be sent into Hart
ford Valley Tuesday.
Marsha to Provide Protection.
The courts order instructs the U.
S. marshal to furnish protection for the
employees of the receivers; it empow-
ers him also to call upon Major n. f.
Mcclure, commanding the first squad
ron of Fifth cavalry at Prairie Creek,
in the event that he needs assistance.
Marshal J. HI Parker said Monday
night he had three deputies at his dis
posal and if these were not sufficient,
he at once would call upon the caval-
ry for assistance. These troops it is
believed, will be able to handle any
situation that may arise in the valley.
The conference of the joint board
of District u United Mine Workers
here tomorrow is said to have no con-
nection with the troubles of the Bache
Denman interests in Hartford valley.
The Bache-Denman company at pres
ent is not a member of the Southwest
ern Coal Operators association and
has no contract or agreement with the
United Mine Workers. The conference
according to President Edward Gun
ningham, is to complete the details of
the agreement between the miners
and operators in the Arkansas coal
fields. These fields comprise about
forty-five or fifty mines employing ap-
proXimately 5000 men.
