WAR STOCKS ARE
PROMINENT TODAY
Rails, However, Almost Ignored
At Opening, But Later Noticed

Wall Street-War stocks and prom

lower at the beginning Of today's
trading, the market showing a con-
tinuance of the recent irregular

but the international group was firm
and Liberty issues were steady.
Rails became active later on further
price impairment. Trans-continentals.

points, Great Northern. New York

recessions of 2 to points. Shares OF
such roads as Union Pacific, Atchison

RUTH LAW TO FLY
 AT NATIONAL FAIR
Americas Greatest Aviatrix To Appear Ten Days at New
 Orleans.

Ruth Law, Americas greatest ayia. tilX, will be at New Orleans for the full term of the National Farm and Live Stock Show. Nov. 10 to 19. and Will make spectacular day and night flights
 Within the past year the name oi Ruth Law has become a household word all over the United States. in quick succession she has set one new flying record after another, and has performed many dangerous and diff!. cult feats with her aeroplane. She came into national fa ne when she made her record breaking flight from Chicago to New York.
 Some time ago Miss Law tendered her services to the United States gov. ernment for the European front. Be. cause she is a woman and Americans do not believe in having women do their fighting, her offer has not been accepted.
 But Miss Law still cherishes an am. bition to fly battle plane on the AL lied western front-a dueling arplane. She has seen the French and English aviators in their maneuvers and has flown with some of them in their prac, tice flights. She believes she could handle one of the fragile machines in the twisting, turning falling combats of the air.
 Miss Law recently said.
 If Woodrow Wilson, president of the United States and commander-in- chief of our military forces. were to say to me, 'Aviatrix Law, I hereby commission you to go get the kaiser should fly away on my bombing miS but with a glad heart"
 In the meantime Miss Law Is doing her mite for America. A few days ego she subscribed s10.000 to the second Liberty Loan. A great favorite with the boys in khaki, she is arranging for series of flights for the soldiers entertainment at various cantonments over the country.
 During her comparatively long stay in New Orleans she will thrill the fairs visitors by looping the loop and performing numerous feats which no one except herself has yet succeeded in mastering. Recently she surpassed all records by making the loop twenty. one times in a single flight Her night flights will he Illuminated by beauti- ful and dazzling pyrotechnic displays.
 Miss Law commands S1OOO per day, by far the highest salary paid any flyer in the world In securing her services | B. Rennyson. manager Of the show, is maintaining his policy of offering none except the finest attraa tiOns obtainabla.
