WILKINS STILL MISSING

FAIRBANKS, April 27.- Plans for a rescue expedition to seek Cap tain George Wilkins and Pilot Ben Eielson who have been missing in the Arctic since April 15 had to be temporarily abandoned yesterday when the airplane Detroiter re- turned to Fairbanks at 12:45 o'clock.
 The Detroiter hopped off yester- day morning for Point Barrow af- ter it's gasoline cargo of 5000 pounds had been reduced by $50 pounds. It was the third attempt to take flight.
 The plane returned with one cyl finder of the central engine dead. The engines failed to turn up over 1900 revolutions and it was almost impossible to keep the plane in the air, according to Major Thomas G. Lanphier, in charge.

 HOW GREAT MEN MAKE LOVE AS REVEALED BY THEIR LOVE LETTERS By JOSEPH KAYE
HARRIET BEECHER AND
 PROFESSOR STOWE
By JOSEPH KAYE
sBFTVVSs'IWE
 co by Wheeler Syndicate. Inc.)

TN 1872, when Harriet Beecher Stowe A was sixty-one, famous, honored and beloved as the author of Uncle Toms Cabin" she wrote this letter to her husband, Professor Stowe, between stops of lecture tour:
 x. Well, dear old man, I think lots of you and only want to end all this in quiet home where we can sing John Anderson. My Joe, to- gether. I check off place after place as the captive the days of his impris- onment. Only two more after tonight. Ever your loving wife"
 And then again:
 '+The lonesomeness Of being at 6 hotel In dull weather Is one of the dis agreeables and In Portland 1t seems there Is no one now to invite us to their homes. Our old friends there are among the past. They have gone on over the river. send you bit of poetry that pleases me. The love of the old for each other has it's poetry. It is something sacred and full of riches I long to be with you and to have some of our good long talks.
 '@rhe Lord bless and keep you. It grieves me to think you are dull and I not with you. Bye and bye we will be together and stay together. Good bye, dear"
 Burning love letters are not at all rare when love Is young but the charm ing and tender phrases exchanged by an old couple after most of their life's span has been lived are met with only at long intervals, and when they are found. they are more fascinating than the fond outbursts of vigorous youth.
 Among the letters of Mrs. Stowe to her husband, there are many that are less pleasant to read than the excerpts quoted above. One letter, which shows the remarkable fortitude and divine inspiration which actuated Mrs. Stowe, Is one In which she breaks the news of her child's death. It Is one of the most pathetic passages that can be found in the whole range of literature.
 "My dear husband: At last 1t is over and our dear little one Is gone  from us. He is now among the blessed. My Charlie-my beautiful, loving, glad some baby, 90 loving. so sweet. so full of life and hope and strength now lies shrouded pale and cold, in the room below. Never was he anything to me but comfort. He has been my pride and joy. Many heartache has he cured for me. Many an anxious night have held him on my bosom and felt the sorrow and loneliness pass out of me with the touch of hls little warm hands. Yet I have just seen him in his death agony. looked on his implor- ing face when I could not help nor soothe nor do one thing, not one. to mitigate his cruel suffering, do noth- ing but pray. In my anguish. that he might tie soon.

Compass readings were unreli- able and entirely out of typography followed in navigation.
 The Detroiter turned homeward shortly after the plane had crossed the Yukon river when it was seen that it was impossible to cross the Brooks range. With the engines opened full speed 5000 feet was the maximum altitude attained.
 Overhauling of the engines and adjustment of the instruments will begin immediately. Further test flights will be made before another attempt will be made to reach Point Barrow.
 After she had taken off yester day, a brisk wind sprang up sud denly and aided the Detroiter to leave. The day was warm with a breeze blowing from the southwest.

Crabs Keen Watch for Enemies.

The fiddler crabs of the Philippines have remarkably sharp eyes, and may be seen standing for perhaps fifteen minutes at time quite still. scanning the landscape for signs of their chief enemes-snakes. skunks, frogs, toads and fishes. Noise will not disturb them, but they beat nasty retreat home if anything moves near. or boldly stand and frantically wave the big claw, being particularly angry if lady crab comes near.

Coming to Earth

It is acknowledged by aviators that
the most difficult part of a trip be-
gins when one~is nearing ones des-
tination
In landing a machine certain rules
have to be observed. The pilot must
first circle once round the aerodrOme
then he must shoot of a green light
which, in effect, asks, "Is it safe to
me to land?" If a similar green light
is sent up from the aerodrome, he
may land; if, however, a red one is
shown, it means that there are other
machines on the ground, or for some
other reason 1t is not safe to come
down. He must then circle round un-
til a green signal is given him.
On the grounds of the Croydon
(Eng) air port there are gas flares
that mark the boundaries of the land
ing spaces. These flares shine in
termittently and one fuel supply keeps
them burning day and night for six
