DARING AVIATOR is RESCUED
Harry G. Hawker Who Braved the Trackess Ocean in an
Aeropane, Picked Up by Small Steamer in Mid Ocean
Given Up for Lost, is Landed Safely.

London, May 25.-Harry G. Hawker
and Lieut.. Commander Mackenzie
iGricve, the two airmcn who started
last Sunday in an attempt to fly across
the Atlantic ocean from ST. Johns, n.
f., have been picked up at sea and
landed in Scotland. Both men are in
perfect health.
1t is officially announced by the ad-
miralty that the aviators were pick
ed up in latitude 1920, ongitudc
29.3O, having alightcd close to the
little Danish steamer Mary. Owing to
stoppagc Of circulation in the water
pipes between the radiator and the
water pump, tho cviators had to land
in the sea.
The airp!anc. Sopwith machine,
was not salvagcd
The first report Of the avators
since their Jump off" last Sunday
came when the Mary, which was
bound from Norfolk to Aarhuus,
rounded the butt Of Lewis today and
wigwa@Gcd the fact that she had
Iiawkcr and Gricvc aboard.
Saved hands Of Sopwith air
plane" was tho signal
'Is it Hawkcr?" was the question
sent out by the flags from the Butt.

which is the most northwestcrly point
Of the Hobrides group off Scotland.
Yes laconically replied the Mary.
The admiralty Immediately sent out
fast torpedo boat destroyer in an
endcavor to intercept the Mary and
take OH the aviators. There was an
anxious wait Of several hours, when
the word was flashed that the de-
stroycr had come across the steamer
and transferred Hawkcr and Grieve
and was taking them to Thurso, on
the nothern coast Of Scotland about
100 miles east Of the Butt Of Lewis.
The destroyer, the Revenge, re-
ported to the admiralty this evening
that Iiawker and GROVE would sleep
on board tonight The aviators will
reach London at I o'clock Tuesday
evening.
The news OF the rescue has clcctri-
fled all Britain. All destroycrs, af-
ter thorough search of the Atlantic
for 300 miles from the Irish coast
had given up the quest and there was
practically no hope that the airmen
were alive.
This morning, however, the forlorn
hope that the aviatOrs might be pick
cd up by some craft without wire
less was realized. The Danish steam
cr Mary, crawling along at nine knots
was the lucky vessel, and her brief
| message to the watchers at the Butt
of Lewis, as she proceeded on her
way to Scotland left the public to
speculate wonderingly over the de-
tails Of the airmen's adventures.
The admiralty Immediately dis
patched dcstroyers from northern
points to intercept the Mary and the
Daily Mail instructed all signal sta
tons to try to communicate with the
captain with the urgent request to
land the aviatOrs at some Scottish
port. The admiralty quest succeeded,
and a wireless message came from the
destroyer Woolson late in the even
ing that she had ovcrtaken the
Mary and had transferred the avia-
tors.
Nothing except some great battle
has excited London more than to-
days unexpected tidings. The public
was disposed to question wehther the
first report could be trusted, and the
admiralty statement that it was TAX
ing measures to verify the report in
dicated doubt which the Woolson' s
message dispclled.
The modest Hawker home near
Surbton was quickly the center of
interest. Crowds OF people swarmcd
there about Mrs. Hawkcr, who only
last Saturday had received a message
Of coincidence from King George. 81
had presentmcnt all along that
should see my husband again. | was
confident all the time, although every
one condolcd with me- | am over.
joyed and too overcome to talk now
said Aks. Hawker.

LABOR OF FRANCE ORDERS
 24-H0uR STRIKE
Railroad Employees Are Instruct ed to Cease Work at } A.

Paris. July 10.-A general strike lasting 24 hours will begin at o'clock in the morning of July 21 and termin- ate at , a. m July 22, according to a statement issued from the labor ex- change this afternoon. Instructions issued to the railway workers are that all trains in motion at 5 o'clock in the morning of July 21 must stop at the nearest watering and coaling station.
 Though the indications early today were that sentiment in labor circles favors the strike, it was far from unanimous. The organizers of the movement appear determined to car ry it out in defiance of the govern ment's warning and at the risk of partial failure and also in the face of criticisms that stoppage of the ralroads will obstruct Rehabilitation, which the manifestation ostensibly was organized to hasten.

HAYGOOD COLLEGE TRUSTEES DECIDE
 ON NEW BUILDING
Propose to Invest S6O,000 on Structure, Raising S30,000
 Here.

A meeting of the advisory board of negroes, located near here, was held in the office of the secretary of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday, and adopted program suggested by Dr. Stonewall Anderson, secretary of the board of education of the Methodist church. and Dr. o. E. Goddard, secre- tary of the home mission board. as to the expenditure of the S5O,0OO which has been apportioned to the local college from the centenary : fund.
 1 Dr. Anderson and Dr. Goddard were in Pine Bluff few weeks ago for the purpose of obtaining first hand information on which to make plans for the future of the school. Their suggested program was that an administration building should be erected at once at a cost of $G0,000 That 30,000 of the apportionment be put into the building and that a like amount be raised by the people of Pine Bluff and of the state. $15,- 900 thru the white people directed by the advisory board. and $15,000 i thru the negroes directed by the board of trustees.
 l It was further recommended by Dr. ] Anderson and Dr. Goddard that their respective boards together ap- propriate $1200 yearly to provide or i Fe1p provide salary for the dean or rresident of the institution, and that the institution run twelve months in the year instead of nine. These sug- gestions were submitted to Bishop Carter and were approved by him, and yesterday were adopted by the advisory board
 Rev. F. R. Steel pastor of the First 1 Methodist church was authorized by the advisory board to act for the negro board of trustees in raising the $15,00O quota and a committee consisting of J. E. Boyce, T. F. Cad berry and F. B. Bloom was appoint eG to raise the $15,000 quota from the white people.
 Rev. c. c. Neil, educational com missioner for the school, will begin at once a campaign to raise his quota among the negroes.
 When the Southern Methodist church made it's survey preparatory to the centenary, which was to raise $35 5,OOO,000, it was planned to put $500.000 into the negro work in the South. Of this sum, the Arkan- sas Haygood college has been appor- ticned $5O,OO0 to extend over a period l of five years.
