it's passage.
There is no doubt as to favorable
action on the part of the House.
John j. Gore of Cookeville, Put
nam County, chairman of the RepuD-

been proposed as the new judge.

port now goes before the House for

Maynard's Death.

M%aynard's Death.
Lieut.. Maynard and his companions,
who had been making daily flights at
the fair grounds, crashed about l pm
near the grounds. Hardly had the
crowd recovered from the shock M
thrill of this tragedy when the sec
ond accident m Smith, a profes-
sional a%eronaut, had already made two
successful parachute leaps. On the
third attempt the parachute was seen
to open slightly, then close. The aero
nout dropped like a plummet, taillng
Just outside the fence Of the grounds
Smith had been giving parachute
exhibitions for the past 10 years, and
was regarded as one of the best in
his line. Two years ago while at
tempting a parachute drop from an
airplane at Lynn, Mass, he fell 500
feet and was severly injured. The
pilot of the plane was killed.
Lieut.. Maynard and his two COM
panions crushed to almost instant
death when their plane went into a
nose dive at an altitude of 1000 feet
and fell. Lieut.. Wood and Mionette,
who, with Lieut.. Maynard comprised
the personnel of a flying circus that
had entertined large crowds daily for
a week with stunt flying, went up
as passengers. Both were instantly
killed. Lieut.. Maynard, who piloted
the plane, was breathing when specta.
tors rushed to the wreck, but died
on the way to the hospital.
The aviators had performed several
of the stunts on their programme
when, at an altitude of 1000 feet
Lieut.. Maynard tried a tail spin; ap
greater altitude. The plane refused tt
respond and fell into a nose dive, fall
ing at the edge of the fair grounds,
mass of wreckage.
Wherever skymen foregather Their
will be mourning for a brave and be
: loved comrade, conceded to be Amer
cas- foremost avitor, What forme
: Lieut. Maynard accomplished for tn
science of flying is a story that ca
only be glanced at in newspaper co
umns. His outstanding achievement
was in the trans-continental air rae
in October of 1919.
J. Previously in the international rae
between New York and Toronto !
t September of that year, he had d.
monstrated his ability as a pilot b

RUINED HER HUBBYS SWORD
Princess Mary Used Weapon Of Vis-
count Lascelles to Cut Open
Her Wedding Cake.

Viscount Lascelle's sword might do
henceforth for can opener, but MS
weapon 1t Is probably out of bust
ness for good. Princess Mary used II
at the wedding breakfast to cut Il
London wedding cake. We need no
further account of its condition. 1t
liz ruined. No temper of Damascus
could emerge from such test other
than bent and hacked-up thing, UNI
fit for further service except splitting
shakes, or perhaps taking up carpets.
Prince Henry offered to get a
Ratchet, but the bride, with that pref
ty persistence In destruction which
sometimes impels the sweetest of
women to dig out jammed washbowl
plug with her husbands razor, re-
jected it and sacrificed the sword.
Anticipating the wreckage that was
about to ensue the duke Of York sug-
gested a Lewis gun for the Job, but
the lady went ahead, and strewed the
plain with crumbs and chips.
The devastation must have been aw-
full. We can think OF but one parallel
to that chaotic scene, and that oc-
CURED when J. d. Galloway returned
from overseas, where he had been
serving as a major, and was made to
serve a cake at certain club dinner.
He fell upon that cake as though 1t
had been platoon Of Prussians, and
soon had 1t beaten, butchered, routed
and dispersed all over his end of the
table. Whereupon o. X. Gushing re-
marked:
