PLAN BIG FLIGHTS.
Aero Club Of America Plan Stations
and Routes.

Ocean to ocean flights along three
routes are planned by the Aero club
Of America as part of its national
ninety days aeroplane competition,
beginning at July 4 next, the club
announced Saturday at New York.
The competition announced recently
is designed to assist the war and navy
departments in developing aviation
corps for the National Guard and
naval militia and alsp to demonstrate
the practicability of aeroplane mail
carrying.
ITO carry the competition into
every state, the contest committee OF
the Aero club has outlined three main
transcontinental routes" says the
statement. The contest committee
believes there will be many aviators,
who, in flying for the daily cross
country prizes Of 500 a day, will
find themselves on the way across
the continent and who will find it to
their advantage to keep on. in an ef-
fort to gain the sea to sea prize.
"For water flying it is proposed to
establish a distance prize. Starting
and landing places for water aero
planes will be located on the Allan
tic, Pacific and Gulf coasts and the
Great Lakes. The stations on the
Atlantic will include Portland, Maine,
Boston, Newport, Providence, New
Hagen, Norfolk, Charleston and Saw
annah. Every naval militia station
on all coasts will be made a landing
and starting station.

CHASED BY SUBMARINE.
Liner Escapes Undersea Boat After
Damage by Shell Fire

Liverpool reports Friday: The cap
tain of the Blue Funnel Line steamer
Theseus, which left Liverpool March
81 for Java, has sent a report Of an
exciting chase by a German subma-
rine. The Theseus escaped, damaged
by shell fire.
On March 2s at Z o'clock in the
morning, the Theseus sighted the
submarine 40 miles southwest ct
Bishop Rook lighthouse. The sub
marine signalled her to stop and
abandon ship, but the order was lg-
nored and the Theseus put on full
steam and started zig-zagging. The
submarine opened fire. The chase
continued until 10:30, when the sub
marine abandoned the pursuit and
appeared to turn her attention to a
small steamer flying the Norwegian
flag.
OF the seven explosive shells fred
by the three-inch gun Of the subma-
rine, FIVE struck the Theseus and did
considerable damage. The main mast
was badly cut and the quarters OF
the fremen in the poop were wreck
ed.
The distance covered during the
chase was about 81 miles. The Thes-
Gus maintained a speed of about II
knots. From time to time she fired
explosive distress signals in the hope
Of attracting the attention of a Brit
ish warship. The captain of theeta

The captain of the steamer believes
that had it not been for the rough
sea the submarine would have over
hauled the Theseus. No member OF
the crew of the Theseus was injured
All the damage to the vessel Yves
above the water line and only tenn
porary repairs were required.

BOMBS ARE TESTED.
Army Aviators Make Experiments On
San Diego Field.

AS a result Of recent tests at the
army aviation station at San Diego,
CAL, bombs suitable for use with
aeroplanes have demonstrated their
practicability. and certainty Of action.
Some of the bombs successfully DEM
onstrated were pear-shaped, while
others were of an elongated, cylin-
drical type. The weight Of the for
mer type was Is pounds while the
cylindrical types weighed so and 100
pounds each.
Details Of the tests will not be dis
closed but it is understood the pear
shaped bombs were somewhat IN
stable in fight with corresponding IN
accuracy in hitting the mark. The
fight of the elongated type, however
was said t. have been more accurate,
the bombs striking within 20 or 80
feet Of the desired mark from an alt1-
tude of two thousand feet.

WANT THE SCREENS DOWN.
Spartan League to Use Referendum
on Pool Rooms.

At a meeting Of the Christian
Workers League held at Spartanburg
Tuesday night, in the rooms Of the
chamber of commerce, it was decided
to take advantage of the referendum
clause of the city charter and submit
to the voters of the city the much
debated pool room ordinance which
council has declined to pass. the
League wants the screens removed
from all pool rooms in the city. Not
long ago the council passed an ordl-
nance requiring a police officer to
visit the pool rooms once every hour
in the day.
If the vote is in favor of the pas
sage Of the ordinance, it is a city
law, regardless of the attitude OF
council. DR.. Snyder, president OF
Wofford college, was one OF the
strongest advocates of the referen-
dunn. There were those who sug-
gested the issue was too small to go
before the people with, but the idea
that principle WIS involved predomi-
mated and the league voted to have
the election caSad.

ZEPPELIN DISSATISFIED.
AGED Count Blames Airship Crews for
Not Attacking London.

Count Zeppelin is not satisfied with
the manner in which his airships are
being handled. He recently called to-
gether his engineers and the captains
at Friedrichshafen and criticised
them on several scores.
The count said the full power OF
the Zeppelins had not been employed
and that longer raids than any made
heretofore were possible. He also
said there was too much disposition
to await favorable weather condl-
tions. He believed an attack on Lon
don and the lower Thames had beer
delayed unnecessarily. The count
also is understood to have criticised
his captains for retreating from hos
tile airmen.

EXPECT BETTER BUSINESS
e. s. BANK EXAMINERS FIND
MARKED IMPROVEMENT.
With Exception Of Maine General Dc

tural and Manufacturing Increases.

Business conditions throughout the

almost all lines, according to reports
from various bank examiners, n'ade
public Thursday night By the treas
ury department at washington
| Eighty Of the ninety examiners in the
United States reported a permanent
improvement and Maine Is said to be
the only state where real depression
exists.
pronounced hopefulness Is preva-
lent in nearly every district says
the announcement. Agricultural
conditions are generally excellent and
commercial lines, with comparatively
few exceptions, are enlarging t. eir
activities, mainly through an 1ncreas-
ed demand, but in some cases pre-
paratlon for activity Is expected to
develop with the coming Of good
weather. Manufacturing is on the
increase and those industries having
orders for supplies from foreign
countries continue especially active.
Further orders have been placed
for cars and rails by the railroads
and soae large contracts have been
made for structural iron for large
buildings"
The statement attributes depres-
sion to unusual conditions abroad, !,
but says that business here has been
stabilized through the application OF
economy.
"The South" it continues, els
showing marked improvement. The

ing prices, with the result that all

steady and pronounced improvement.

"The western states and the Pacific
states are showing general improve

''The New England and Middle At
lantic states and portion OF the Cen
tral West, although generally report
ing an improvement, seems to feel
the past depression to the greatest
extent. Farmers, however, generally
have had satisfactory results but
manufacturing, with the exception OF
that to fill foreign orders, is feeling
the improvement to the least extent.
There is improvement, however, in
most lines. Savings bank deposits
are increasing and generally banks

Those names are not monikers of

Taylor, colored Pullman porter, of

great pride in the court of domestic

contributing to the dependency of his

His tale was one of woe and of re-

the part of the travelling public.
George gets $25 a month and tips.
He runs on the Milwaukee road. The
