either for business or pleasure, re-
1reshments have to be trotted out and
passed around In most cases. the
consumption Of food and drink on
these occasions is superflous and a
waste, pure and simple. Nobody
needs the refreshments. All TO often
the persons INDUCING in them are full
to repletion already. A lot of this
unnecessary eating is endulged in or
practiced for socialbility's sake. Pee
pie won come unless you give them
something to eat, is the plea, and the
magic word refreshments will draw
some people to anything. Well, then,
folks who have to be bribed with gus
tatorial tidbits to perform their duties,
social, civic or otherwise should not
be cultivated until they see the error

 Then it developed that during the eight minutes they had been in the air neither aviator had touched the con. trols.

 WILD FL|C H I

FORT WORTH, Texas, Sept. 9.-An airplane running wild in mid-air and cutting all the daring capers that such machine is capable of perform irg. while two skilled aviators sat calmly in their seats, each believing the other was directing the flight, recently amazed American aviation officers and cadets here who watched its startling gyrations.
 Eventually. after hair-raising loops, dives and side-slips in which the air plane almost grazed the earth, 1t diyed nose first into the ground driving the engine back through the fusilage up to where one of the aviators sat, but injuring neither of them.
 The two French aviators who so narrowly escaped death were Le Maitre and Soulier who have brought down several German airplanes in the fighting on the western front in France.
 Le Maitre was in the back seat and took the plane from the ground. The machine had climbed few hundred feet when Soulier raised his hands to his head. the usual signal of pilot that he will take control of the plans. So Le Maitre sat at ease
 Then for eight minutes the air rlane gave a performance the like of which nevnr before had been seen by the spectators. It comprised the whole known category of stunts and added new ones. with amazing sud denness. Those below gasped in won derment when the machine suddenly dived within few feet of the ground. I: seemed impossible that anyone would handle the machine with such dexterity and reckless abandon.
 The spectators, however. saw Le Maitre and Soulier smiling calmly.
 Suddenly the plane crashed down ward and buried its nose in the earth The aviators stepped calmly from un- der the demolished plane and faced each other

CIRCLES GOLD OUTPUT
 WILL BE ABOUT NORMAL

The gold output from the Circle dis trict this year will be about the same as in former years, operations at the present time going on about the same as usual. During the past month there has been plenty of water, both for hydraulicking and sluicing. To ward the latter part of the month the hot weather somewhat diminished the supply, but not enough remained with which to carry on the working of the claims.
 The natives are happy owing to an unusually large run of king salmon. Although late in starting. they were plentiful when they did arrive. Nearly every native and fish man in the camp has more than years supply on hand, for the first time in some years.
 The gardens that were planted were somewhat late in getting started, ow- ing to a backward season. but as soon as the warm weather came things be- gan to shoot up as if by magic. Should the good weather hold out, a splendid crop will be harvested, it is reported
