CHARLIE CHAPLIN
AT LAST STUMPED

An example of practical camou-
fage is given by Charlie Chaplin in
his second million-dollar picture,
shoulder Arms" which is to be ex-
fibited at the American theatre in
Winnemucca tonight. The funny lit

into enemy territory. only to be met
by small party of Huns. seeking
frewgd They promptly decide to
chop down the human stump as an
addition to the load of wood they are
about to take back to their trenches.
In Charles opinion, his attempt at
camoufage is entirely too successful
and his resentment over the stupidity
of the Huns in mistaking him for a
genuine stump gets him into count
less difficulties. This is only start

C|TIzfNRY FEARED
WAVE OF CRIME

That a crime wave of large pro-
portions had broken out in Winnie
nutca was the belief of macy people
Saturday night, when word passed
from mouth to mouth that Constable
n. p. Moore had been forced to kill
a Mexican burglar who resisted ar
rest. Later on, when word was
brought that the Southwark home
had been robbed they were sure con-
ditions were serious. One noticeable
feature was the rapid emptying OF
the Nixon opera house, the jitney
dancers apparently considering :!
good policy to go to their homes TO
see if they were "all together"
The shooting Of the Mexican, named
A. Merino, is of course grea y e-
gretted by Constable Moore. but was
unavoidable, the constable's life being
endangered and the shooting only in
self-defense.
Two Mexicans. one of them Merino,
were in and out of f. Reinhart Com
pany's store several times during the
day, Saturday, the last lime stealing
two automatic pictols. The matter
was reported to the police. At sup
per time Constable Moore saw the two
Mexicans cross the lot behind his
home in West First street. He fol-
lowed and overlook them near the
Western Pacific depot, where the
Mexicans stopped to talk to two ne
groes. Moore told them he wanted
them, but Merino said he was going
to get package at the depot before
accompanying Moore for identified
ton. Moore told him to come along
Immediately, whereupon Merino COM
menced to run. Moore drew his re-
yolver and fired into the ground in
an effort to scare and stop the Mexi-
can, but the result was that the Mexi-
can drew his pistol. Moore thought
Merino fired at him and therefore shot
to kill, but the negroes say il was the
other Mexican who shot at Moore, be-
ing borne out by the fact that the
dead mans revolver had not been
fired. In the meantime the other
Mexican, running in an opposite di-
rection, made good his escape.
Coroner Ritchie's jury. composed of
George Farris, John Schmidt and G..
Fl. Lighton, yesterday found that the
dead Mexican's name was A. Merino
and that both had been employed as
section hands for the Western Pacific
at Jungo. Merino was 32 years of
age and a native of South America.
The jury's verdict was that he came
to death by bullet wound while re-
sisting arrest by N. p. Moore
while performing his duty, and we
exonerate N. p. Moore from all
blame"

can as navigator.
By applying methods of marine
navigation to an air flight, Lieuten-
ant Whitten Brown expects to fly
across the Atlantic in the Vimy
bomber machine, piloted by Capt
Jack Alcock, and to make land
fall' within twenty or thirty miles
of his objective in Ireland or Eng
land
Lieutenant Brown was an Amerf~
can electrical engineer before ha
joined the British Flying service In
1914 He has described in state-
ment which he has prepared for tha
Associated Press an interesting de-
scription of the difficulties encoun-
tered in a transatlantic flight and
the methods by which he hopes to
overcome them.
''In flying an airplane over iAHee.
bodies of water such as the Atlantic,
ocean, where the pilot may be for
hours out of sight of any landmarks
by which he could judge his post
tion, it is to the methods of navfga-
tion which have been developed by
the mariners that the pilot turns To
learn where the location and tha
course of his destination is writea
Lieutenant Brown.
Unfortunately difficulties arise
from the start in applying these
methods with accuracy. This is true
because the airplane is at the mercy
of the wind and appears to move In.
the direction in which the wind,
blows with the speed at which 1t ia
blown. In the second place tha,
speed of the airplane is from five ia.
ten times that of the commereFaI
vessel.
1.-THE high speed of the airplane
renders it necessary to make fre~
quent observations for position, and
this in turn makes it undesirable to
use the slow, albeit accurate, meana
of calculation ordinarily employed.
In consequence, special charts have
been devised for use with the sun or
stars which enable the pilot to fix hfa
position in a very short time. al
though not with the accuracy de-
manded in marine work. With tha
aid of these charts, together with q
sextant for observing the sun or.
stars, chrcnometer, and compass.
the pilot should be able TO make q
1andfan within twenty to thirty
miles of the desired point.
''This, however he will not be abla
to do unless b, eeps careful watch
on the direction and strength of the
wind, which may alter between hia
observations and without his knowl-
edge. In order to check this, an in-
strument known as the drift indf-
Gator has been devised by means OF
which the pilot can ascertain the df-
rection of the wind, and the speed
at which he is travelling over the
ocean, so long as he can see the
ocean and the flares or smoke bombs
which he drops into it for the pur-
pose of making his observations of
drift
Should the pilot be flying in tha
clouds so that he can see neither tha
ocean or the sky, he can only depend
upon his compass, which gives di-
rection only. Under these circum-
stances he may drift many miles out
of his course without being aware
of it, unless he employs a late de-
velopment of wireless telegraphy, by
means of which he can measure hfs
bearings from two or more land sta
tions and fix his position at tho
point of intersection. For short dis.
tance, this method has proved tts
reliability, but it has yet to be proved
that it is suitable for such journey
