First Seaplane Trip
over ArOOstOOk County

The Executive Department recent
ly received letter from Lieut.
Stuart Graham, a Canadian in the
British air service and then in Hal
flax, requesting that he be supplied
with maps of the northern Maine
sections, as he was planning an air
flight from Halifax over Maine to
his home in Three Rivers. Quebec.
The department had nothing in the
line of maps wanted and conferred
with the Forestry Department. which
was also unable to supply the lieu
tenant with what he desired. He
was accordingly referred to the Unit
ed States Typographical maps, the
best thing published.
Lieutenant Graham evidently Sc
cured what he was after. because
he made the flight, accompanied by
Mrs. Graham and incidentally gave
Aroostook county it's first view of a
seaplane. The Houlton Times in its
July II issue gives the following
account Of its appearance there:
The first huge seaplane that ever
visited Aroostook county passed over
the western part Of Houiton on Fri
Cay afternoon about 1875. headed In
a northwesterly direction, and at
tracted the attention Of those who
happened to be out in the open, by
gracefully on it's way from Halifax
to Quebec.
The seaplane contained Lieut.
Stuart Graham and his wife, with
Walter kahre as mechanician, max
ing trip from Halifax to Three
Rivers. Quebec. where Lieut.. Ora
hams home is.
Lieut.. Graham is member of the
Royal Air Service and saw much
service during the late war, having
to his crSdit the sinking of a num-
Der of the enemy submarines. His
machine is the H. S. . T.. standard
type Of seaplane. having wing

loud noise as it passed on it's way

what is was and where it was go
ing. calls coming from Amity. Hodg
don, Linneus and Ludlow and at the
latter place it's circled around for
few minutes before continuing on
it's journey. The plane landed at
Eagle Lake and took the water very
gracefully, where it stopped for a
short time. leaving at p. Nj. for
Temiscouta Lake. completing the
second leg Of it's journey.
From Temiscouta the flight pro-
ceeded direct to Three Rivers. where
the party will be received by Sir
Lomer Gouin, governor of the Prov
ince of Quebec. to whom Lieut.. Ora
ham will deliver message from
the governor Of Nova Scotia
When the history of brave Cana
dian women is written Il prominent
part will be given to Mrs. Madge
Graham. wife Of Lieut.. Graham, who
blazed the trail and set the pace for
inter-provincial traffic by aerial serv-
ice
1t was Mrs. Graham who navigat-
ed the voyage to Quebec and it is she
who is acting as pilot through this
history making trip. CARRIED in the
warm but cumbersome uniform OF :,

ton in the bow of the sea and in

would in going from one room to an

KOREA ASKS INDEPENDENCE
Society Representing 100000 Persons
Sends Delegates to Paris to
Plead Their Case.

San Francisco, March 11.-Korea
mas declared independence from Japan,
according to word received here, and
delegates are en- route to France to
plead for recognition. They include
Son Pyung Hi, Phee Song Chat and
Xii Sun Chu, all Korean scholars. Doc
tor Rhee, another Korean leader now
in Washington, is expected to join
them in Paris.
The news reached San Francisco by
way of Shanghai, where a messenger
was sent from Korea with a cable
gram, to avoid Japanese censorship.
The message was directed to G. II.
Aim, president of the National Korean
association, who has headquarters
here. 1t read:
"The Korean National Independence
union of 100000 persons, including
5000 Christian churches and 5000

1000 YANKEES
Get BACK HOME
Their Transport Founders in
Heavy Seas for Twenty
One Days.
VESSEL IS SAVED BY TUGS
Lost Her Course a Score of Times
Also the Steering Gear-Men
Call Experience Worse
Than Battle.

Newport News, March 11.-More
than 1000 Yanks, including many Illi-
nois men, disembarked from the trans
port Buford, which was conveyed into
port by tugs which rescued her in a
terrific gale off Cape Henry.
After fioundering In heavy seas for
81 days, losing her course a score of
times, she lost her steering gear, and
when she sent an S. o. S. cali she
was being steered by hand, an almost
impossible task In the sort of wealth
er she met out there.
This is said to have been the worst
trip she ever made. Trouble cropped
up when she had been out of Bordeaux
only few days. An officer who re-
turned last week on another boat
stated that two days out of port his
vessel got a wireless from the Buford,
asking them to give her her bearings,
as she had lost her direction in the
heavy seas.
Officers returning declared the ex-
periences in the fighting zones were
tame compared to the battle with the
heavy waves they had just gone
through without relief for three weeks.
For many days the vessel had been
approaching the coast, they said,
while they didn't know exactly where
they were, or whether they would be
able to reach land. Fuel was almost
exhausted. and the tax on the strength
of the crew and the passengers was
said to be terrific.
The Buford brought ten casual COM
panies, representing nearly every
state and in the crowd were men who
had seen service in every big fight
during the closing months of the war.
The units aboard included a de-
tachment of the Sixth coast artillery
for Fort Logan, Colo; a detachment
of the Sixth heavy mobile ordnance
repair shop for Camp Grant and an
other for Columbus (O) barracks !;
casual companies for Arkansas, Hi
nois, Minnesota, Tennessee and
Texas; part of Company NJ, Three
Hundred and Forty-fifth infantry,
Eighty-seventh louisiana, Mississippi
and Arkansas) division: a negro cas-
ual company for Virginia, and scat
tered casuals for Illinois and Ohio.

U. S. SOLVES RAIL TANGLE
Hines Says Federal Warrants Will Be

Present Needs.

Washington, March 12-Issuance Of
federal warrants for amounts due rail-

method employed by the railroad ad-
miDistratiOn to meet the situation
caused by the failure of congress to
pass the railroad appropriation bill
Director General Hines stated after a
conference with railroad executives
and government officials that he was
considering this plan. Such warrants
would serve as collateral for railroad
corporations desiring to make loans
through banks and would be taken up
by the railroad administration when
congress made the appropriation
needed.
1t was estimated that S7O1, 697 SOP
would be needed by the railroad ad-
ministration up to June 80, 1919.

MAY DANISH CHARLES
Ex-EMPERoR OF AUSTRIA MUST
GET OUT.
Reliable Information Reaches Paris
That Former Ruler is to Be
Expelled.

Paris, March 12.-Information has
reached responsible quarters in Paris
that the Austrian government is con-
templating the enactment of a law
banishing former Emperor Charles.
This report has aroused discussion
here as to what country the ex-em-
peror would be likely to seek. 1t is
said to be certain that he would not
go to Italy or Germany, while the
Scandinavian countries, with Hollands
trouble over the presence of former
Emperor William as a warning, are
not considered likely to receive him.
The choice would seem to lie between
Switzerland and Spain.
Either of these two powers, how
ever, would require guarantees from
the powers, it is thought, against any
possible future demand for the eX-
rulers extradition.

Frock of combination Fabrics.

An evening frock shown by lead
ing American style designer for mid
winter wear has long draped skirt,
with pointed train of satin. The back
of the bodice, cut only slightly low. is
also OF satin, while the front is filed
in with lace. A front view of the
frock gives the impression that it is d
separate satin skirt and lace bodice9
but the satin back ties the two sec.
tons together, forming very charm
ing frock. This fancy for fabric COM
binations encourages the home dress
maker to make over every garment
that is not completely worn out as
little shortage of material can easily
be remedied in this way.
