HEROIC RESCUES FROM WATER
Ten Year Old Harold Botham Saved by His Brother-n-la Oscar Church--Boy Broke Through Witch Hazel Mill Pond Ice While Skatng-His Rescuer Pulled From Water Nearly Exhausted-Reached by Line Formed With Ropes and Ice Pikes.

Fifty feet out from shore and near ly exhausted in his struggle with the breaking ice and cold water, Oscar Church of UnCasVille was hauled out of the witch hazel mill pond ill Cn- casvilIe Saturday afternoon, together with his ten-yeaT- old 3rOther-in- law, Harold Botham, whom he had heroic ally gene after when the boy broke through the thin ice on which he was skating on the upper end of the pond.
 That both were not drowned was due to the fact that several men formed line with ropes and ice picks and by cautiously crawling out or the ice were able to get hold of Church and bring him to shore. Among those assisting Roy, Franil T. Browning and Clyde Beebe.
 The Botham boy. who is the son of Mrs. John Botham of UncasNille was skating on the pond about 5.S0 o'clock with two other boys. while Mir Church and some other men were cutting ice When the boys Skated towards the upper end of the pond they got on thin ice and the Botham boy went through in a spot where the water is about ten feet deep. The other boys got away safely and started shouting for help while the boy in the water struggled to keep afoat. but was rapidly weakening.
 The cries of the boys attracted the attention Of Mir. Church. who came to the rescue of his little brOther-in-l Jaw and was also plunged into the icy wa ter by the breaking of tn ic as h at

 When Church reached and got hold of the boy he tried to get out on the ice and back to land with him, but the soft and rotten ice broke away before him as he struggled vainly to climb out on it. The two boys on the sbCre kept on shouting for help and also ran off to where MT. Roy, Mr. Browning and Nr. Beebe were in others who helper, got ropes and ice make q line and by cautiously crawl lnG out on the ice reach near enough to MT. Church to get him ashore, all though with much difficulty.
 He was in an almost thoroughly eH- hausted and chilled condition when they finally got him and the boy sale ashore
 When this was accomplished he was told to run off home with his two hoy chums and they were all told to keep moving as fast as they could to warm up the boy who had been in the water.
 Mir Church was taken to the home of AIr. Roy nearby and Given dry clothing as well as some stimulant to overcome the effect of the icy bath he had experienced.
 On Sunday it was reported that neither MT. Church nor the boy who had been promptly taken care of by his mother when he reached honle showed any bad effects from their per ilOuS experience

TRACTOR BI-PLANE
 MADE BY GALLAUDETS.
Military Type Proves Its Efficiency in
 Trials at Hampstead Plains.

After having been engaged in mak- ing successful trial tests of the Gal laudet tractor bi-pIane nanufactur- ed by the Gallaudet Manufacturing company of this city. Edson |. Gal laudet returned on Friday night from Hampstead Plains, Long Island. The owners are greatly pleased with the success of the trials and are of the opinions that no difficulty will be ez perlenccd i'll securing a market for their machines which are of the mil itary type. At present F. r. CralIau- det is not making any trips in the bi- plane owing to his accident of two years ago when he fell q distance of 160 feet. The bi-plane was tested by an expert Harold kantnef. a young man of 25 years residing in New York
 The bi-riane has especially fine qualities, two of which are notable, It is designed to De Of inherent stabil ity and to have excellent gliding pow CT. The spread of the wings is # feet and its length is 25 feet The machine weighs without the pilot 1000 pounds. Photographs were made Of the machine durirs the trial flights.
 As one of the pictures was taken the operator was speeding past with both hands WaVins in the air l. be- ing found not necessary to keep the hands CT the controller. This was on account of the excellent sailing or gliding power of the machine. Auoth- CT important feature is that it will glide with the power shut off, and the engine not in operation. owing to it's eNcellently balanced proportions
 The French 5O h. D. engine which draws the bi-plauc is located in front The construction is stable and it is shaped like a. fish. having head, wings and Q tail. The propeller Is ahead of the engine. Then there is the cabin or passenger section and the extend ing body wjth it's tail. The front sec ton runs along on two automobile wheels until the body is level and then the bi-PIane eleVatcs itself. The body construction of the bi-plane is of ma hogany while the spars and posts are of spruce. The wings are covered with linen and then vanished with spec ially prepared Narnjsh.
 The first flight of the bi-piane was made on Tuesday, Jandary 25. and more extensive flights were made on January 30tb and February 4th. There were tiiehts morning and afternoon on Sunday. February Ith and il all probability 100 miles were covered ard the machine sent up to a height of about 1900 feet. A week aSo Sunday F. F.. Layman an engineer and T member of the GaIlaudet company. was taken up with the pilot as d. ras- senser and the flight proved as sue ces sful as the previous trials.
 A second machine has been just sent to the crial grounds py the CaIIaudet company It is almost an exact dUpji- cate but il has twice the power of the first. The wings arc a trific shorter. bins 50 feet and installed l na 100 h. T. GnOGle engine. The 50 h.
