  American aviator Lincoln Beachey first performed his inside loop (called the "loop the loop") at an airshow at Naval Air Station North Island, San Diego. Beachey climbed to 3,500 feet (1,066 meters) before turning the airplane down. He brought the machine up at the 1,000-foot mark and completed a 300-foot (91-meter) loop.
  French aviator Maurice Chevillard performed the first somersault loop with an airplane while a passenger was on board, something previously done solo by aviators.
  The play Great Catherine: Whom Glory Still Adores by George Bernard Shaw premiered at the Vaudeville Theatre in London as a starring vehicle for actress Gertrude Kingston.
