DAUGHTER ON VISIT TO
FATHER FINDS HIM LIFE
LESS ON KITCHEN FLOOR
E .II. McKluloy, aged 70 years, a
resident of lidenbower for the pasl
six years, was found dead today at
his home across from the Riverside
grocery. .Mr. McKlnley was a veteran
of the civil war, and resided by him
self. The body was found by Ins
daughter, who had just arrived from
Colorado lo visit her rather. It Is
thought that the excitement of her
arrival brought on the heart failure
which caused his death.
The deceased had been residing
alone since taking up his residence
at E.lenbower. His daughter had
not seen her rather for eight years,
and upon reaching his home today
was aslounded to find him lying
dead on the kitchen floor. Mr. Me
Kinley was seen alive and apparently
in good health between 10 and 11
o'clock this morning.
Hesides the sorrowing daughter
who arrived today, the deceased ts
survived by other near relatives who
will be notified by telegraph of the
sad occurrence. Jusl what disposi
tion will be made of Ihe remains is
mil known at this time. However,
burial will probably take place in
Colorado, the unfortunate man's
former home.

LISI10N, Portugal, May 27.--The
NC-4. wilh Lieutenant Commander
A. C. Read. American .flyer, reached
Portugal this afternoon. Lieutenant
Head is the first man lo fly across
the Atlantic ocean, nud thus gives to
America the honor for which the
threo planes tried when they left
New Fouudland a little over u week
ago. One plane was smashed at the
take-off, another came to grief iu a
fog bank when 1000 miles out, and
Harry Hawker, flying for the
British, went down when only SOU
miles from the Irish coast. Hawker's
plane was entirely demolished and
for several days he was thought to
be lost, until a Danish steamer
picked him up. For several days Ihe
N'C-4 was hung up at the Azores
with engine troublo and by the bad
weather.
Early this morning, however, the
seaplane hopped off and in the mid
dle of the afternoon reached Portu
gal, thus giving to America the
honor of flying the first plane across
the Atlantic ocean. On reaching
England Commander Head will be
met al Mayflower Hock, rrom where
the Pilgrims sailed for America 400
years ago. by Mayor Joseph Pearce,
a member of the British admiralty,
who with representatives of the
I'niied States navy will greet him.
Hells rang lind salutes were fired
when the NC-4 left the water at
Punta Del Gada, Azores, this morn
ing, and hundreds of persons gath
ered to watch the plane begin the
last leg of Its flichl.
The trans-Atlantic air flight has
attracted the allentiou of the world.
All eyes have been centered on the
efforts of the airmen who. under the
supervision of the American navy,
attempted to give lo America the
honor of being the first country lo
send a plane across the Atlantic. To
day their efforts were crowned with
success.

Heavy IVnalty for Wilfully Attempt
iug: to Fwule These Taxes
Sahw of lee t 'renin, lOtc, al
riitiiTh Socials Fveiupt.
Iniiuiries received by the bureau
of internal revenue and collectors
indicate a misunderstanding on tho
part of not only a large portion of
the public, bul dealers themselves
regarding the tax on soft drinks,
which became effective May 1. Re
ports reaching the bureau are that
some dealers are not collect lug the
tax while others nro charging extra
pennies for drinks which are not lax
able. To collect these mistakes the bu
reau Issues the following offlclul
statement relating lo Ihe collection
of the tax:
The lax Is one ponl for each ten
cents or fraction (hereof on the
amount paid at soda fountains, ice
cream parlors or similar places of
business on soft drinks, Ice crenm.
Ice cream f-'undnes, "or similar ar
ticles of food or drink when sold for
consumption hi or In proximity to
such place of business." The pur
chaser rannot escape the tax by step-
plug oulside of tin place where sold
to consume bis soft drink or Ice
crea m. Ice cream in cones Is tax
able, because sold under Condi t ions
which indicate that it Is to be con
sumed "in or in proximity lo I he
place of business. ' When Ice cream
Is sold under conditions which Indi
cate that it would usually be con
sumed hi or in proximity to the
premises, the fact that the purchaser
does not consume It there but car
ries ll away, does not render ft free
from the lax. Ice cream sold In
boxes and ice cream sodas or oilier
soft drinks sold In pitchers or
