Captain AIcock and Lieutenant
Brown Make First Nom Stop
Trip Over Ocean.
TIME SIXTEEN HOURS
Voyage Is Without Accident, but
vickers-vimy Biplane Is Forced to
Climb and Dive In Effort to
Escape Fogs.

London, June 1.-THE final goal OF
all the ambitions which fying men
have ventured to dream since the
Wright brothers first rose from the
earth was realized when the British Of
ficers, Capt. John Alcock and Lieut.. Ar
thur Brown, landed on the Irish coast
after the first nonstop flight across
the Atlantic ocean.
Their voyage was without accident
and without unforeseen incident, so far
as can be learned. 1t was a straight.
away clean-cut flight, achieved i'm 16
hours and IL minutes-from New
Foundland to Clifden, Ireland, dis
tance Of more than 1900 miles.
Plane Battles With Fogs.
But the brief description which
comes from the air men at Clifden
tells of an adventurous and amazingly
hazardous enterprise. Fog and mists
hung over the North Atlantic, and the
Vickers-vimy biplame climbed and
dove, struggling TO extricate herself
from the folds of the airplanes worst
enemy.
She rose to 1000 feet, swooped
down almost to the surface of the sea
and at times the two navigators found
themselves dying upside down only ten
feet above the water.
Before booming down to earth near
the Clifden wireless station Alcock cir
cled the wireless aerials, seeking the
best spot to reach the earth but no
suitable ground was found, so he
chanced 1t in a bog.
The wireless staff rushed to the aid
of the aviators. They found Brown
dazed and Alcock temporarily deaf
ened by the force of the impact. As
soon as they were able to be escorted
to the wireless station they tele-
graphed the news to their friends,
then had breakfast.
That is the best way to cross the
Atlantic" said Lieutenant Brown af-
ter he had eaten.
The landing was made at $40 a. m.
British summer time. In taking the
ground the machine struck heavily and
the fuselage ploughed into the sand.
Neither of the occupants were injured.
Radio Out of Commission.
Captain Alcock explained the silence
of his radio instrument by saying that
the wireless propeller blew off soon
after leaving New Foundland.
The Daily Mails correspondent
found Alcock and Brown at Clifden
packing their gear into a huge sack.
Alcock's face lit up with a smile when
he was congratulated by the CORE.
spondent. Brown, who was bending
over packing, said quietly:
I'VE didn't do SO badly, did we?"
Alcock said with a laugh: am not
at all tired. Brown, however, con-
fessed, Il am bit tagged out" The
correspondent says Browns eyes were
slightly bloodshot, but that otherwise
the men looked as If they had not tray-
elled across the ocean.

NO TRUTH IN RUMOR
OF OFFICE MOVING

For the past few days there have
been rumors on the streets to the eff.
feet that the auditors office of the
N. o. G. N. railroad would be moved
from Bogalusa to Jackson, Miss,
which would throw possibly fifty
well known Bogalusa people out Of
employment.
When asked if there was any truth
in the report, C. j. Wade, auditor,
stated that he did not know of any
such contemplated move and added
that if such an idea was being en-
tertained that he very likely would
know something Of it. It is thought
that the report started following the
taking off of some freight trains and
making the ''lay-over" point at Fox
worth instead of Bogalusa, as well as
laying off about one hundred men at
the shops.

BOGALUSA LOSES
FIRST FOOTBALL GAME

The Bogalusa High went to Pop
larville Saturday and played the first
game of the 1919 season with the
Poplarville "Aggies," which resulted
in 25-to-0 victory for the Missis-
sippians. Bogalusa High outclassed
A. H. S. in her playing, but weight
was against us, Poplarville averaging
ITO pounds and B. H. S. 140.
The game started at $3.50, Be-
galusa receiving the ball on Poplar
ville's ten-yard line. Smith, the big
full back of the Poplarville team, re-
peatedly went through Bogalusa's
lines for long gains. 5ogalusa's best
work was on forward passes.
Pat Ramey, Bogalusa's full back,
was unable to play the entire game,
owing to a recent illness. This ham
dicapped the whole team, because
players were shifted from their orig
inal positions.
Although the score was against B.
H. s. it was good opening for our
team.

NO CHANGE IN LOCAL
LABOR SITUATION

The past week in Bogalusa has
brought out no new developments in
the local situation, except that dur
ing the week there has been a large
exodus of laboring people. Every
line of business has begun the Teduc-
ton of expenses. The reduction OF
the forces at the N. o. G. N. shops
and train crews, mention of which
appears elsewhere, has been the most
noticeable during the past week.
The Colonial Creosoting Company,
the Bogalusa Veneer Company and
the Richard P. Baer mills are run
ming and giving employment to a
considerable number of men.
Nothing new has been given out
at the office of the Great Southern
Lumber Company. The policy Of
hating all repair work is still being
maintained. The part of the engine,
which was sent to the steel mills
three weeks ago, has not arrived and
it has not been announced when 1T
is expected. The opinion that the
mill viii not begin operation until
after January / appears to prevail.

Airplaned Failed to
Arrive at the Fair

The crowds that attended the
Washington Parish fair at Franklin
ton last Thursday, Friday and Satur-
urday were disappointed in not being
able TO witness the airplane flights,
but they were no more disappointed
than the officers Of the fair, for no
word was received from the aviator
as to why he did not come. He was
to have appeared at Lafayette earl
Ter in the week and was to fly from
that city to Franklinton.
A special train was run from Bo-
galusa to Franklinton Friday and
about 200 took advantage of the
rates, possibly a hundred citizens
driving over.
The big attraction of the fair on
Thursday, the opening day, was the
speaking of Colonel Frank Stubs
and Hon, John M. Parker, rival can
didates for governor. Col. Stubs
is reported to have had considerably
the best of the debate.
The fair is said to have been the
most successful of any in the history
of the association.

Mrs. E. V. Moore
Commits Suicide

A tragedy of first magnitude wa.
enacted Sunday afternoon when Mrs
p. V. Moore, residing on Avenue E
died from a self-inflicted gun-shot
wound. News Of the tragedy was
heralded about 6 p. M, however
the woman had then been dead fol-
two hours. Her husband, who had
gone to Laurel in search Of work
was notified, and together with T. 7.
Moore of Laurel, his brother, return
ed early Monday morning.
The funeral was conducted in the
presence of large company Monday
afternoon, Rev. D. v. Blayney, gen.
eral secretary of the Y. M. C. A,
leading the service.
Mrs. Moore has been a resident of
Bogalusa for many years. Those
who knew her when she first came
here remember a woman whose bril-
liant mind attracted and inspired all
with whom she talked. Her failing
mentality had been noted for some
time, and in particular had her
friends discovered that she was rush
ing rapidly to a final crash in the
last few months. Since Wednesday
of last week it was evident that her
mind was entirely gone. Virtually
barricaded in her home she shot at
random at imaginary intruders and
repeatedly summoned the officers to
search for her phantom tormentors.
Her ability to catch herself and de-
fend herself against the accusation
of being in need of protection Of
medical care caused her friends to
leave her alone: In a respondent
mood, no doubt, with reason off its
throne, she took her own life Sunday
