Curtiss at SliTifln-uin tw .1 -i -i -. , ! jiciuav auuea a dramatic feature to the trial flights of the aero planes entered for the contests of avia tion week by skilfully guiding his machine above another aeroplane and averting a collision in the air that seemed imminent. The feat was accomplished when for the first time in history, three heavier-than-air craft were manoeu vring at the same time. All were fly ing rapidly when suddenly Curtiss saw M. Dumanset, in an Antoinette monoplane approaching at right an gles and on the same level with him. As quick as a flash Curtiss realized lilt, '.lnncav n T-i .1 . 1 , . a : l , . uuu cicvitiing ins pianes, vms maenme instantly shot upward una soared sately over the French man. The thousands of spectators who lined the aerodrome watched the spectacle with suspended breath, while they saw it successfully and brilliantly carried out and applauded the American wildly. The third ma chine in the air at this time was that of M. Tissandier. The wind which had been master of the aeroplanes for two days, sud denly died out at sundown and the aviators rushed to the sheds and drag ged out their machines. Count de Lambert, on a "Wright model, was the first of the aviators to start and made a complete circuit of the aerodrome. M. Tissandier, also on a Wright biplane, followed him. Then the Curtiss machine, looking smaller and more compact than the others, was placed in position for a flight. Curtiss still was limping and walking with a stick but, like M. Bleriot, who before crossing the Eng lish channel in his monoplane, threw aside his crutch, Curtiss mounted the seat of his biplane unencumbered. "Where will you land?'.' he was ask ed. "Right here," answered Curtiss, and, smiling, he started his motor. Af ter a short run over the ground the aeroplane ascended and made a wide turn and then described- evolutions back and forth over the aerodrome. Meantime M. Dumanset had started across the field in one of the Antoin ette machines. Suddenly it seemed to the crowd below that a collision between him and Curtiss was inevitable, but the American proved a quick thinker and gracefully swerved his aeroplane up ward and steered in safety over that of Dumanset. Curtiss, true to his word, landed without mishap, at his place of start ing, after having been in the air four minutes. The altitude reached by him was 150 feet, 50 feet higher than any of the others. t Count de Lambert, and, Ir. . Tis sandier each made flights of 12 min utes during the evening and Hubert Latham took a few short spins about the course and was given an ovation by the spectators. M. Bleriot came out on the field with his monoplane, but darkness prevented his making a flight. Mr Purtiwa to-nisht ioined the ill . ' w a V other experts in a statement to uie (effect that aviation is a fine weather snort and tnat people must nut ex pect flights to be made in all sorts j of weather. Personally, Mr. uurtiss said he did not intend to take any risks. He has decided not to enter the passenger carrying test, as he has no hope of defeating Bleriot in it. He intends, instead, to devote him self to the speed contests. revolts' at cold steel. "Your only hope," said three doctors to Mrs. M. E. Fisher, Detroit, Mich., su:ering from severe rectal trouble, lies in an operation," "then I used Dr. King's New Life Pills," she writes, "till wholly cured."

Smith commanding the battleship South Dakota, wishes to decorate his table with a mag nificent silver service he can do so by merely making a request of the navy department. When in 1901 it was decided by the department to name a battleship for South Dakota, the pride of the people of that new and thriving state was so excited that they at once decided to follow the example of other states and present a silver service to ornament the mess room of the new war engine. In 1904 long before the craft was ready to be put afloat, the gift was made. January a year ago the South Da kota was launched. The gift of the people of the state for which she was named appears to have been witpn. Thf. silver service had been boxed and stored in the New York navy yard. There it is supposed to be today No one seems to be espec ially charged with the duty of deliv 05r, it tr the vessel. The people ot South Dakota have become restive under what they regard as the indif ference shown toward their gener osity. The South Dakota is now on the Atlantic coast and the handsome silver service can be had for the asking. He Knew.
