Each Aviator Thought other Was

Fort Worth. Tex, Aug 23.-An air

ting all the daring capers that such a
machine is capable of performing,
while two skilled French aviators sat
calmly in their seats each believing
the other was directing the fight. re-
Gently amazed American aviation Of
fcers and cadets here who watched
its startling gyrations.
Eventually. after hair-raising loops,
dives and sideslips in which the air
plane almost grazed the earth. it dove
nose first into the ground, driving The
engine back through the fusilade up
to where one of the ayiators sat, but
injuring neither of them.
The two French aviators who so mar
rowly escaped death were lie Maitre
and Soulier, who have brought down
several German airplanes in the Tight
Ing on the western front in France.
lie Maitre was in the back seat and
took the plane from the ground. The
machine haf climbed a few hundred
feet when Soulier raised his hands to
his head, the usual signal of a pilot
that he will take control Of the plane
So lie Maitre sat at ease.
Then for eight minutes the airplane
gave a performance the like Of which
never before had been seen by the
spectators 1t comprised the whole
known category Of stunts and added
new ones, with amazing suddenness.
Those below gasped in wonderment
when the machine suddenly dived
within few feet OF the ground. It
seemed impossible that anyone would
handle the machine with such dexter
ity and rockies abandon
The spectators, however, saw, lie
Maitre and Soulier smiling calmly
Suddenly the plane crashed down
ward and buried its nose in the earth.
The ayiators stepped calmly from I'M
der the demolished plane and faced
each other,
What do you think you are doing
anyway; trying to scare me, eh?' said
Le Maitre.
/ What was j trying to do?' echoed
Soulier What were you trying TO
do TO me?'
Then it developed that during the
eight minutes they had been in the
air neither aviator had touched the
controls. Souier had been merely
adjusting his helmet when lie Maitre
saw the movement and mistook 1t for
a signal that Soulier intended TO take
control of the airplane While the
machine was running wild, each ayia

The passage by the House Of the
mah.power bill by the decisive vote of
1896 to 2 indicates pretty clearly the
feeling throughout the country that
everything possible must be done, and
done quickly. to win the war and have
it over with at the earliest possible
minute. All attempts to tie any
strings to the bill failed, and the
measure was passed without any
amendment, The Senate is to vote
on the question today, and the pros
poets are good for similar results
there. That is the way the people
want to see legislature move along.
They are in no mood to pardon any
filibustering tactis by opponents of the
measure.
