About Copper.

Copper sold in Germany not long ago
for SITS a ton; the price in England
at the same time was 1921. For mill
tary purposes it is indispensable. In
combination with zinc or tin it enters
into the shell of every cartridge for
rifle or revolver or pistol, and into
the jacket of every bullet; it is the
chief material in every primer, and is
essential to the manufacture of ammu.
milton for much of the ordnance. Cop
per wire is used for field telephones,
for winding dynamos, and for many
other electrical purposes. Before the
wal Germany consumed annually $50,
600 tons, of which it produced only a
tenth.

and an exceptionally large crowd was
attracted to see whether he would at
tempt the same breath-taking stunts
in the new machine that had made fa-
nous himself and his trim little BIZ
plane.
On the first flight of the day every
thing worked properly, and all the
familiar evolutions YER INDUCED,
with the exception of the perpendicu-
lar drop. This Beachey had saved for
the final climax, and this proved too
much for the sturdy fabric of the
monoplane.
The machine was at an altitude of
about 5000 feet when Beachey shut off
his power. For several thousand feet
the machine dropped head-on for the
earth, and then the aviator grasped
his control levers to adjust the planes
for the graceful descent which char
acterized his previous flights.
At this instant the wings crumpled
like a collapsed umbrella, and the
aeroplane, turning over and over in
its fall, plunged into San Francisco
bay, narrowly missing a vessel lying
at the government transport docks.
Beachey's Funeral.
The funeral of Lincoln Beachey took
place Wednesday. Services were un'
der auspices of the Elks' lodge.

that Assemblyman E. A. Everett

wrong as will belearned by read

"The Review has published an
item on the 212c fare bill. / have
written them a letter to print on
this matter. You will do me
favor to say that | introduced
the bill by REQUEST, which
means that I do rot father it OF

by petition from the Interstate

COUNTY BOARD MET
Short Session Marked Final
Meeting of Present Board
Few Resolutions Presented
No Action on Petition.

The final meeting of the present
