For long time at the general hos
pital at Fort Mcpherson, Robert
Matthews, of Pocomoke, Md, was

the hospital shell-shocked, without
record, name or number. He was
just an unknown" And as such he

On Tuesday a brother-in-law of the
man reached the post and identified
him as Robert Matthews, the clew
being given by the shell shock vic
tim himself when he scrubbed his
name on a sheet of paper while in
the Red Cross house and later NUT
ter "Pocomoke" in the presence of
another soldier. Investigations were
begun, which led to the visit of the
soldiers brother-in-law Tuesday.
When Matthews first reached the
post his mind was a complete blank.

THE ALBATRoSS

The albatross spends his life, with

How Americans
"HeId the Line"

At the time of the signing Of
the armistice, the American army
in France was holding 1914 miles
of the front, or 81 per cent of
the entire line, according to the
statement of General March.
The chief of staff's figures are
as follows:
French, So per cent; United
States, 81 per cent; British, Is
per cent; Belgians, per cent.
Just preceding the signing Of
the armistice, on October 10, just
one month and a day before the
cessation of hostilities, the
Americans were holding % per
cent of the line, and the reduc-
ton later was probably made be-
cause of the concentration of
forces for the drive through the
Argonne forest.

Prince 8 Message
Left in Toronto
Colonel Barker, Expected
to Bring Greetings to
Witson, Fails to DO So

TORONTO, Aug. 25.-A large crowd
saw the Prince of Wales start the
twelve Canadian entries In the worlds
greatest airplane race for the $4,000
Hotel Commodore prizes from the
grounds of the Canadian National Ex-
hibition to-day.
The start OF the race was almost
marred by an accident when Roland
Rohlfs's Curtiss Oriole turned turtle
on its first attempt. The machine and
pilot were uninjured, and after short
delay new start wa. made.
AS soon as the Oriole was placed in
line for the start again the prince
took his station, and at 1856 gave the
signal to start Americas first COM
mercial airplane sped across the start
ing field and took the air perfectly.
Rohlfs then headed his machine
stra ght across Lake Ontario into the
teeth of 800 ile-an-nour gale, which
was accompanied by q heavy downpour
Of rain.
Eighteen machines had been entered
under the Aero Club Of Canada for the
race, but six of them dropped out at
the last minute for various reasons.
Among the twelve who remained was
Colonel ". G.. Barker, Canada's second
ace.
Left Princes Message Behind
1t had been expected that Colonel
Barker would carry the Prince of
Wales's message to President Wilson
in the captured German Fokker which
he is plotting in the race for the Can
adian War Trophies Fund, but he went
away without it.
Rohlfs was followed by Sergeant c.
B. Coombs, who piloted De Haviland
motor. The general feeling at the
starting ground was that Connb BIS
would stand good chance If reach
ing New York first.
The other machines then left at
five minute intervals, according to
schedule. Captain II. W. Cook, one
OF Anerlca's aces pnoted captured
German Fokker
Bert Acosta, in Curtiss Oriole, and
O. S. Farmer. III H Curtiss Standa ri,
were the next. Then came Major X.
Schroeder, holder of the American al
titude record, in a Vought VET, with
a Hispano- -Suiza mo or.
The next in order were: Lieutenant
II. T. Slater, in a DH4; Lieutenent
Wallace Young. in Curtiss j. n 4 <
Lieutenant c. A. Schiller, in q Cana
dian Curtiss J. n; Lieutenant Moore
and Lieutenant Wilson Campbell, in q

Majority Take Lake Course
The majority of the pilots headed
straight across the lake into the storm
which was sweeping across it on q
straight course TO Buffalo. A few OF
them, however. took the course b. the
way Of Hamilton, following the rail-
road tracks in at effort to avoid the
storm.
The start was witnessed by the lead
ing statesmen and citizens Of the
Dominion. All the airpianes entered
in the contest carried mail to the cities
along the course of the race. These
letters bore the special stamps issued
for the purpose by the Postmaster
General of Canada. 1t is the first time
that aerial mail has been established ID
between the Dominion and the United
States.
Among the letters carried were

Albany Accidents
Stop Three PLANES

ALBANY. Aug. 25.-Three accidents
to American flying machines, which put
the aviators out of the race but which
did not cause any serious personal in
juries, marked the landings made here
to-day in the international air derby
between Mineola and Toronto
Captain Kinley, who arrived at 4:57
p. M, made a perfect landing. but ap-
parently turned on some power after
the machine struck the ground, for the
airplane suddenly plunged forward at
great speed toward the edge Of the
field, which was thronged with specta
tors. A steep embankment was Just
behind them, and over this a large
number OF persons and the machine
plunged.
The airplane was wrecked, but Cap
tain Kinley, aside from some minor
cuts and bruises, was unhurt, and none
of the special tors suffered any serious
injuries.
Colonel Claggett's machine turned
turtle when it struck a rut, and J. O.
Hill broke one of the wings of his
machine. Colonel Hartney, who was
forced to return after making a start
for Syracuse, because he had TOO much
oil, did not give UP the race as at first
announced, but planned to leave later.
The aviation fed here proved far too
small for an event of this kind, max
ing necessary the extension of the rule
that machine should not remain more
than thirty minutes. Because Of the
congestion it was necessary for some
of the aviators to remain one hour or
longer.
Sergeant Coombs. with Lieutenant
Holland as a passenger was the first
Canadian to reach this city, arriving
at 4:55, lea Jing for Mineola at 500.
Roland Rohlfs followed at 5l9 and
left at 555. while Major Schroeder,
who arrived two minutes later, left at
6:10 p. IT.. Captain Cook reached the
field at 6:0T.
Among the American aviators who
left on the Syracuse leg Of the trip la.e
IN the afternoon were Captain Donald
son, who departed at 4;59; Lieutenant
Midkif, 5:O2; Major Simmons, 5:O4 :;
