" HE Maryland Hunt Cup Steeple-
chase, to be run in the Green
Spring and Worthington VAL
4 leys Of Maryland tomorrow, is
to America what the Grand National
Is to England. I have heard riders
who have ridden in both races say
that they would rather take their
chances on winning the Grand Ma
tional than the Maryland Hunt Cup.
A rider can get through the brush
fences of the English race, but if he
hits one Of the solid timber fences of
the Maryland Hunt Cup he is more
than likely to go down.
There are II entries for the Mary
land race today, but it is not known
tomorrow. Inshore, the big bay thor
oughbred owned by j. w. Y. Martin
and trained by Frank A. Bonsal, jr.,
is to be riden by Henry Frost, jr., of
Mlddleburg. Inshore won the race last
year and will be the favorite if he
starts. He was victorious in thrilling
steeplechase last Spring and won the
Grand National in Maryland last Sat-
urday. But his trainer, Frank Bon
sal, says today that unless he con-
siderS the horse as fit as a fiddle" to-
morrow he won't send him to the post

Jack Skinner won't be able to ride

All roads will lead to this part of

NEW YORK, January ga civ
YER" airplane will drive through the
Holland Hudson River Tunnel under
its own power next week to show the
average man how easy it Is to run an
automobile that flies.
The winged motor car will fly from
Washington, D. c.. to the western end
of the tunnel in New Jersey. There 1t
will come down on the road, fold its
rotary wings, transfer its driving power
to its wheels and scoot under the river
into New York behind motor cycle

Buzzing along like big wasp on

Fifth avenue to herald the opening
Of New Yorks first ali show in seven

It will be the first time that the "fliv-

has negotiated tunnel.
Dramatizing Private Flying.
The fiight-tour will be one of several
devices adopted by the air show
hackers to dramatize the vast increase
in flying by private citizens.
Another will be an aerial parade over

Of march"
The whole show-it opens Thurs

The exhibit will include at least two
planes that operate on automobile
motors and use high-test gasoline
They cost as low as S1,500, can be
bought on the installment plan, and
make as much as 25 miles on a gal
Ion of gas.
Larger planes have interiors as lux

baggage compartments in the lining
Of the roof.
Convertible Landing Gears.
For the convenience OF business men
who don't like to waste time flying
from airport to airport and then mo-
toring long distances from airport to
business district, the show offers a
convertible landing gear, with pom
toons to land on water fronts near
city business centers.

Planes aren't built that way any

weight is down. Robot pilots and SCI

earth's roadside signpoSts. And cabins
of ships are conditioned and
soundproof.
There are 10000 licensed private
pilots now, against 1876 in 1880. And
10000 boys and girls are taking fly

Senate SIashes Half Million
 from Expenses
Appropriations BillMay De- lay Adjournment Until
 Far Into Night

Slashing more than half million dollars off the general appropria- tions bill, the Territorial Senate. after working until midnight. last night passed the measure and sent it back to the House peppered with amendments. all, with single ex- Eception, providing for cuts from the estimates approved by the House. No action had been taken by the House up uo noon but it was expected the measure would fi- nally wind up in conference.
 With the exception of the appro- priations, both houses were fairly we'll cleaned up with their work to- day as the final day of the session drew toward close, but it was ex- pected that it would be well into the night before settlements would be reached in conferences and this Legislature ready for sine die ad- journment Midnight tonight is the official time for ending the 60-day session but Legislatures have been known to stop the clock and keep on for hours after the deadline actually has passed.
 Major slashes made by the Sen- ate was in schools and roads. The $4o0 900 item for roads was elim- mated, but this amount is taken care of in the Scott-Lichtenberg road bill. The item of $65,000 for transportation of school pupils was deleted as was $l5,000 for vocational education. If the transportation item is finally left out of the bill, children residing two miles from schools cannot be compelled to att tend school as the compulsory school law provides that transporta- ton must be furnished.
 The University of Alaska also came in for the knife, the mainten- ance figure being cut to $l50,000 and mining extension trimmed to $l5,- 900. The House had fixed $175,000 for the first item and $20,000 for the latter.
 A controversy resulted over the crippled children program, which Dr. w. w. Council, Territorial Health Commissioner, explained was apart from the Social Security Act, and after considerable wrang- ling the Senators decided to let the items on this subject stand as the House had set 1t, and its CO., relating appropriations in connec- tion with the health program.
 The Senate inserted one figure, an item for $7,000. to carry into ef- feet the provisions .of the Walker bill which sets up a bureau of criminal investigation and identifi- cation under the Attorney General

 He said that the serious split within the high court leaves the nation governed by blind fate in- stead of by human reason' He called attention to the current delay in handing down decisions, saying that the Washington State mini mum wage act was argued three months ago and while I can only guess at the cause of the delay, : the difficulties apparent in this case lead to the suspicion that the Court is badly divided"
