Who RULES AIR?

Up TOLAWYERS
Associated Pfess1

LONDON-Now that Switzerland
rhas raised the point that in flying
over her territory British aViators
who dropped bombs in the Zeppelin
sheds at Friedrichshaafen violated
Swiss neutrality, British lawyers have
asked the even more novel question
as to whether the recognition of air
sovereignty logically involves the pro-
hibItion of wireless communication by
nations at war. ..s...
In other words, if the passage Of
an airship through the air of neutral
country is a violation of neutrality,
how about message sent through the
air? The question, as fantastic as It
may seem, raises nice point in inter-
national law, one that may yet have
to be thrashed out at some future con-
ference ..S
Great Britain expressed regret that
her aviators crossed Swiss territory,
out she emphasized at the same time
that she did not. concede sovereignty
of the air to anyone. On this point
lawyers disagree. English courts have
held in the past that there can be no
.trespass where free air is concerned.
In the United States, on the other
hand, the city of Cleveland, Ohio, con-
tested in the courts and lost in case
where it erected a bridge part of
which projected in the air over the
property of taxpayer. For this priv
ilege the city was forced to pay $780,
O0G -.s e.. ...-..-
British legal opinion thus far voiced
seems to be that the air is private or
state property only in SO far as it is
effectively occupied That is to say,
effective occupation consists at pres
ent of dominating the atmosphere to

Newspaper interviews with and sto-

Dukes form and OF incidents con-
nected with the preparatory work OF
beth the Hawaiian swimming cham

ha, but the following letter from Duke
TO his father, Capt. Kahanamoku of

ha swan the 100 yards handicap and
won easily. / didn't enter in that
race; we were separated. i swan in
the 440 yards and won easily.
Well, Dad, we've heen having a
grand time in Sydney. The swim OF
the 100 yards championship OF N. s.
w. was a great race. Won that race
by three or four yards. There were
about 90 people at the Domain bath.
Covered the distance in SO As seconds.
Say, Dad. that's about all they do
down here, swim, horse racing and all
kinds of sports. The people here
don't believe In working. They start
in about Q O'Clock and get of in the
afternoon
In the 440-yards swim 2. Adrian of
Manly s. club won this race by six
inches. made second place; should
have won that race. Really, didn't
try hard enough to win the race. The
time was considerably slow, 5:S8.
Billy Longworth. the little holder or
this distance and 200. did not start.
He was laid up with stomach trouble.
! also had trouble with my ear and
cold In the throat Doc Evans and /
called IN to see the doctor and he
advised me not to do my swimming
for a while. But after taking some
medicine the ear finally got better,
and now II Is getting on fine.
So. Dad, IN not tell you more about
the races have sent you some news
newspapers and you'Il probably re-
ceive It before You get this letter.
Well Dad, We are now getting ready
to leave this place. We are heading
for Brisbane VIII leave on I:20
train. We're going to do some touring
after swimming In Brisbane. Well
swim at Rockhampton, Marlborough,
Mount Morgan and then back to Sgd
ney. Then from Sydney wen swim
in Melbourne, then in New Zealand.
So far as we have gone everything is
fne. So here's hoping that all at

GOLF GOSSIP

you, Mr.. Golfer, who grumbles when
] you have to pay IS cents for. a
golf ball, what action would you take
against a man who asked you to
cough up $5l 46 for single ball?
That is what golf ball brought in
England recently, and IL was not stud
ded with diamonds and rubies, either.
No, it was just an ordinary little gut
ia percha, and marked with the
whack of the cleek, the mashie and
the jigger.
But 1t all depends, Of course, upon
who is handling the club that dents
the ball In this case it was Miss
Gladys Ravenscroft, the former wo-
man champion of the United States
and England, who is well known on
the Canadian links, and who cut and
slashed at the inoffensiye guilty"
Miss Ravenscroft and Edward Ray,
the ex-open champion of Great Brit
ain, recently played an exhibition
four-ball foursome against Z. A. Las
sen, an ex-open champion, and Two
Whitton, open champion of Australia,
on the links of the Harrogate Golf
Club, for the benefit of the Belgian
relief fund .
An auction was afterward held at

Contrary to early reports there APP
pears to be possibility that the COM
ing golf season will be featured by
at least one international tournament.
The entry of several OF the more
prominent of the English profession.
ais in the American open champion
ship at Baltusrol, June Is to Is, is al.
most certain In case the English open.
set for about the same period. is de-
clared off on account of the war.
The English golfing authorities have
not as yet made a definite announce
ment regarding their tournament, but
close observers Of the trend of the
sport abroad are of the opinion that
the open golf championship will be
dropped for the season of 1915 as has
been done with the Henly regatta,
the Oxford Cambridge crew race and
other English sports classics. 81
With their principal home Journeys
these professionals would
welcome the opportunity to play in
America for their sources of revenue
have been greatly curtailed since the
beginning of hostilities. There is an
other side to the question, however,
which leaves the question Of ultimate
entry in doubt While there are a
of prominent professionals
who are not serving with the English
regiments on the Continent large
majority are connected with various
home defense organizations and are
loath to leave England this spring for
fear their motives might be misunder-
stood. If the war situation clears suf-
ficiently Braid, Vardon, Taylor and
others may yet be seen competing in
the American open in june.

Carney's Moving
Picture Show Much
Better At Present

Considerable improvement is to be
noted in the character OF the moving
picture exhibits in Carney Hall,
Grantwood. On Wednesday evening
Ibsen's Ghosts" a photoplay of a
very strong character and teaching q
fine moral lesson, was given there to
a well-filled house. There was a
round of applause at the end of the
piece, showing that this community
knows a good picture show when it
sees it.
Besides Ghosts" there was
vivid character drama called "The
Resolve" and some comic sketches
that were above the average. On
the whole the performance was a very
enjoyable one.
Manager Carney evidently has taken
heed of the suggestions made recently
by "The Palisadian" as to the music
and the cooling facilities of the hall.
An excellent pianist played suitable
and appropriate music during the past
week and electric fans were supplied
instead of the paper ones handed out
to the audience on previous occasions.
Why not? Grantwood, with Palisade
and neighboring villages to draw
from, ought to be able to support
good movie show, we'll equipped with
up-to-date accommodations, particu-
larly when fifteen cents admission is
charged. There are some very good
shows in suburban towns about New
York where tickets cost but five or
ten cents.

Little huing Mckee
Has a Broken Leg

Little Irving Mckee, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Donald Mckee, had what was
almost fatal accident at his home in
Edgewater Heights. He was climb
ing about among the slippery
branches of one of the large cherry
trees on the place, when he lost his
grip and fell from height of nearly
twenty feet to the ground, fractur,
ing his right thigh. His mother hear
ing his scream rushed to the child,
and with the aid of DR.. Brundage
FASTENED with the little sufferer in
an automobile to St. Luke's Hospital.
Here the child was put in the care of
fracture specialist DR.. John Douglas,
and the fracture X-rayed. The leg
was then put in plaster cast, and
X-rayed Mother and son spent the
night in the hospital returning home
the next day. 1t is expected that it
will be nearly the first of September
before the little chap has recovered.
The accident came as an additional
trial to the Mckee family, as Mr.. Nc
Kee had made all plans to take little
Irving on trip to the Pacific Coast,
stopping for a visit with relatives in
Kansas.
