NUMEROUS COMPLICATIONS
BY WOMEN VOTING

Miami, Fla, Sept, 13.-sGranting Of
the ballot to women developed numer-
GUS complications and although it was
believed everything in connection with
1t had been cleared up in Florida, Carl
Homer, Jr., supervisor Of registration
here, has unearthed another snag.
Mr.. Homer has announced that all
women who have married since the
last registration period must register
under their new names if they would
participate in the fall elections.
"Miss Sallie Smith, who registered
last spring can vote, If she still Is
miss Sallie Smith," but if she has
changed her name to "Mrs. John
Jones" within the last few months she
is automatically barred from casting
ballot unless she registers under
hefrnew name.

NEWEST PLANE TO TRY OUT.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 11.--A
plane that tucks its toes up under it's
body lige a bird and carries water in
it's wings instead of "a radiator, will
be entered by the Navy in the Dc
troit races next month. -
These radical departures from gen
eral air craft design are. said to con-
tribute toward a speed Of better than
200 miles an hour. A statement from
the office of Rear Admiral Moffatt,
chief of the Naval Bureau of Aero
nautics, says:
"The entire landing gear of the
Booth racer will be retracted into the
fuselage once the plane is In the air,
so that only the wings and. the fuse
lage will present resistance to the
wind.
3 "This follows the practice Of birds
in fight. The smaller birds draw up
tkeir feet into their breast feathers
when in the air. Larger species,
such as ducks and geeses tuck their
feet under their tail feathers rather
than drag them through The air and
retard their speed.
$50 the Booth racer once, it has left
the ground will draw up the wheels Of
the landing gear into the body of the
plane."
The B-R Incorporates another inno-
vation of frankly experimental char
acter. This is the complete suppress
sion of the radiator, which all water.
cooled engines have had Aeronauti-
cal experts estimate that 20 per cent
of the wind resistance offered to the
airplane in flight is due to. the neces-
sity of dragging radiator through
the air. 49,
In the Booth racer the wing will oe
covered with thin sheet Of copper,
under which the water for cooling the
engines circulates so that the wing
itself becomes one large radiator, per-
forming the dual function of cooling
the engine and supporting the weight
Of the plane.
If it is proved practicable to cool
the engine by this new system under
the severe conditions of a race, a
marked advance undoubtedly will
have been made in aeronautical engi-
neering.

Stories picturing the mule going

In mines where the mule still is

where they are kept in pastures until
the mines resume operation.
The only animals known to breed IN

dred shown on the chart to-day. 1t is
one of the greatest argosies ever noted

Conspicuous in the eastbound lane is
the Cunarder Mauretania (Q1O. on her

Capt Rostron recently declared that
whatever the ship had done in the past,
she would be able to repeat in the fu-
