LITTLE D|R|G|BLE
LANDS ATOP ROOF
Puritan Leaves Two PaSsen-
gers on Building Here.
Takes Off Safely.

Nosing down among the towering
buildings and spires nearby, the Puri-
tan, tiny dirigible of the Goodyear-zep-
pelin Corporation, piloted by j. A.
Boettner, veteran airship pilot, today
landed and discharged passengers on
the top of the Emerson & Orme
Building, 1920 M street.
The landing was made without mis-
hap. William Emerson, automobile
dealer, and Daniel r. Forbes, attorney,
passengers in fight over the city,
stepped out of the cab when the craft
was moored to the roof top.
Carries Five Passengers.
The little dirigible, carrying five pas
sengers, maneuvered above the roof top
for about Is minutes before 1t could get
into proper position for the ground crew
of Is men to haul it down. 1t stayed
atop the roof for about five minutes
and then took off to moor at its own
landing mast, set up temporarily at
Boiling Field.
In addition to Boettner, two who left
the ship, A. c. O'Neill, mechanic, and
the 10-year FOLD son of Mr.. Forbes were
aboard.
A crowd of about 100 persons were on
the roof on which the landing was
made. On neighboring roofs scores of
spectators saw the feat, which had been
performed before comparatively few
times.
Smallest in Use.
The Puritan is one of the smallest
dirigibles in use It is only 1913 feet
long and 81 feet in diameter. 1t has a
gas bag containing $4,000 cubic feet of
lifting gas, at present filled with helium.
1t is powered by two 70-horsepower air
plane motors and has cruising speed
of as miles per hour, with maximum
speed of SIS miles per hour.
Todays landing was made in the face
of fairly stiff breeze. The feat was
made more difficult because of a spire
atop a school house at Seventeenth
and M streets, directly in the line of
the dirigibles downward passage.
The Puritan recently attempted, but
failed, because of heavy wind, to
make landing in the park at the Bat
terry, New York City. 1t has made
landings on buildings in other cities.

Atlanta today to face charges of having
embezzled approximately $1,000, 900 of
the boards funds.
throng OF curious persons crowded
the Union Station and watched from
points OF vantage on a nearby viaduct
as Carnes, handcuffed to an officer who
accompanied him from Winnipeg, Mani
toba, was taken from the train.
The crowd was so great that there
was delay in taking Carnes of the
train. Finally he alighted under an
escort of police and county authorities
and was placed in an automobile. II
was necessary for the police to clear
a way through the throng before the
machine could proceed to the county
jail.
With his face lowered and a nrav felt
hat pulled we'll down over his ewes
Carnes sought to shield himself from
photographers as he entered the iail
another crowd was on hand here. but
like the one at the. station it was
orderly and there was no demonstration.
Carnes would make no statement ON
his arrival.
One of his sons, Robert, climbed
aboard the train with Solicitor Gen.
John A. Boykin as it pulled to a stand
still. He met his father near the vesti-
bule door. For a moment they stared
at each other. Then they embraced.
County officials searched Carnes' hand
luggage ard personal belongings and
said they found $4,000 in travellers
checks. Carnes was quoted as having
said I'm not alone in this mess by a
whole lot" and as adding he would
open the eyes of a lot of people" as
soon as he could talk in the presence of
his attorney. Carnes sat up all last
night and played poker
Carnes declared his intention of hav-
ing an independent audit made of mis-
sion board accounts to prove that the
indictments against him were "all wet. u
AT the same time he expressed conf
dence that he would be able to arrange
bail.
Keys to safety deposit boxes Carnes
was believed to have rented in other
cities during his flight from Atlanta
are in the hands of officials, who are
seeking to trace them.

Authorities Act Following Reports
of Four Deaths.

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, October
R.-Reports yesterday of the killing
of four, and perhaps seven, peaceful
Nicaraguans on october 2 at the viii
lage of San Marcos, Jinotega, resulted
in measures yesterday to block any in
terference with registration for the
forthcoming registration by outlaw
groups.
Rumors have been current for some
time that these groups would attempt
a demonstration during the registration
or voting period according to an Amer
ican election offlcial today.
Such demonstrations" he said. "are
purely for advertising purposes abroad
and to enable looting at home. So far,
however. few citizens have been fright
ened away and registration is heavier
than in 1924. Reports today indicate
that the killings were the result of a
raid by small outlaw band headed by
Redro Altamirano.

Diegel found Sarazen far off the
game that the stocky little Italian
American from New York had shown
in the earlier rounds of the tourna-

accuracy on the tee and through the
fairway and Diegel was around in rs

The other semi-final was a walk-over
for Espinosa, who registered a II
