 It was exactly o'clock when the two ships took off from Murray Bay

It was when the local man and Chamberlin landed a, Brainard field that they were almost mobbed by the crowd, gathered tt see the Bremen crew and who wished to welcome the fliers from across the water, who were reported or their way to Hartford.
 Although the crew of the Bremen went to Washington, Dixon and chamberlin remained in New York Friday night. Yesterday afternoon Dixon returned to New Britain, hay ing completed total of 4.7o0 miles of air travel in two weeks.
 Lieut.. Dixon said he did not know whether the men of the Bremen would attempt to fly back across th' water or not. The last he spoke tt them they were undecided.
 The weather at Murray Bay. whicf has been normally around five be low zero, was very cold and ther' waa a heavy fog the day the tw' ships took off. A strong south wine slowed up tho planes slightly, s' that it took five hours and 90 min utes as compared with a. previou five hours to reach Hartford.

AUTUMN
BY D. c. PEATTIE.
By ROBERT CULLEN.

There Is a general impression that
Spring belongs to youth and Autumn
to the aging. Personally. take no
sort of stock in this belief; it reminds
me of those infantile analogies of the
people who believe in birthstones and
palmistry In my observation, young
people are seldom very happy in the
Spring; restlessness pervades them,
a ileartache. There is no sadness quite
like that of a little copse beginning
to show an April green, with song
sparrow chuckling somewhere unseen.
Autumn, on the contrary, Is when
young people feel exultant; the pulse
beats harder, the warm blood courses,
relentless and splendid, in the veins.
The same cold tingle in the air that
makes the squirrels jump to keep warm,
and. horses prance skittishly down the
bride paths of Rock Greek Park, ac-
counts for the foot ball season. There
is no Autumn in the world like Amer
ican Autumn in foot ball time. The
roar of the crowd, the waving banners,
the great hearty blankets, coats and
muff1ers, the smell of chrysanthemums
on the coats of pretty girls, the twink
ling of maple leaves down the city
streets-these things give to Autumn
the elastic step of youth Ours is a
Western land, a land of sunsets, gor-
geous autumnal colors. 1t Is perfection
at this time of year.
