RHEIMS. Aug. 20. Aeroplanes flying
In straight lines, making wide turns or
wheeling abruptly, traveling alow ana
fast and low and high, offered a strik
ing spectacle to 15.000 persons on the
Held of Bethany today.
Two slight accidents occurred. M.
Dumanset, driving an Antoinette ma
chine, came to the ground sideways and
broke one of the runners of his aero
plane, and M. Goffroy. in an Esnault-
Palterie monoplane, had accomplished a
flight of a kilometer when ths machine
truck a hedge, demolishing its propeller.
Cnrtiss Ready for Races.
This was the second practice day be
fore the commencement of the prize
flights of aviation week, and many of
the aviators took advantage of the favor
able weather to try out their craft.
Glenn H. Curtiss. the American, was
given an ovation after a flight of seven
minutes. Although the motor of his
machine was a bit erratic, the bi-plane
iped straight without swaying. Mr. Cur
tiss declared that hs was ready for the
races.
Herbert Latham also was applauded
for a spectacular flight of 10 minutes.
M. Bleriot. driving; a Small 40-horse-power
monoplane, made a series of
- maneuvers, during which he demon
strated his masterful hand at aviation.
Sommer, Lost In Fog, Returns.
M. Sommer, who recently, though un
officially, beat Wilbur Wrighfs record
for duration of flight, speeded across
the plateau during the afternoon and
was lost to sight In the haze. It was
thought by spectators that .he had
descended, but he suddenly reappeared.
When he landed, he announced that
he had been to the village of Vlnney.
During the evening there was some
wind, but Count De Lambert and M.
LeFevre. both representing Wright bi
planes, braved the wind and made evo
lutions which demonstrated the ease
and facility with which the machines
of the Wright model salL LeFevre was
particularly skillful in handling his
craft. Once he wheeled abruptly over
the heads of the spectators.
Curtiss Surprised at Lawsuit.
Mr. Curtiss was greatly surprised when
Informed that the Wright Brothers had
brought suit against the Aeronautic So
ciety of New York, alleging that the Cur
tiss machine infringes certain of their
patents. He said he had known for some
time that something of this nature was
contemplated, but he failed to see how
it would result In anything but a lot of
litigation.
"There Is nothing to support the charge
of infringement," Mr. Curtiss declared.
"The beet answer to this is the fact
. known to everybody that we made public
flights in America long before the
Wrights did. This shows that there could
not have been an imitation of their ma
chine by us."
The aviators were amused tonight over
an offer received by Augustus Post, sec
retary of the Aero Club of America, from
a Frenchman weighing . 250 pounds, who
says he will give (100 to each and every
aeroplanist who will take him with them
In their flights.
XEW RIVAL OF WRIGHTS FOtTXD
Lyman GUmore, of Auburn, Cal.,
Makes Repeated Flights.
AUBURN, Cal.. Aug. 20. (Special.)
Placer County has a rival of the Wright
brothers and other successful aeroplane
builders and operators. Lyman Gilmoro,
of this place, after long study and exper
imentation, has made successful flights
with an aeroplane he recently completed.
At Cap Horn, a few days ago in the
presence of several invited guests, he
made two flights, starting from the top
of the mountain, circling far out over
the abyss nearly a mile deep, and return
ing safely to within a few feet of where
he started. On one flight of 3000 feet
he maintained an average height of iofl
feet, while on a flight of 600 feet his
average he'ght from the ground was .60
(ml The average speed was 43 miles an
hour.
There are three planes to this airship
and it is equipped with sails, but its
main feature is a gyroscope, which bal
ances It perfectly under all conditions.

Elusive Faker and Comrade Caught
at Last Where No Substi
tutes Pass..
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 20. (Spe
cial.) George H. Donohue, known
throughout the big cities of America as
"Raffles,"was arrested last night, to
gether with James Simpson, and lodged
in the city prison, where they will be
detained pending an Investigation of a
charge of attempting a "short-change"
game at a Market-street bookstore.
Numerous complaints of "short
changing" have been lodged with the
police during the last two weeks, and
Donohue and Simpson will be held for
observation of those making the com
plaints. Their arrest last night fol
lowed an alleged attempt to swindle a
clerk in a bookstore Wednesday night.
In the role of "Raffles" Donohue has
caused a great amount of Interest in
many of the larger cities. He worked
the scheme In New York, Chicago, Phil
adelphia, San Francisco, Seattle and
Portland, and by the aid of confeder
ates and substitutes evaded capture, but
this time he met the real thing.
WHEELER "ROASTS" CO-EDS
President of University of California
Says Many Are Immature.
BERKELEY, Cal., Aug. 20. (Spe
cial.) The law was laid down to the
co-eds of the University of California
today by President Benjamin Ide
Wheeler, who addressed them at a
meeting of the Associated Women Stu
dents. In part he said:
There are a lot of you women who
come to the university because you do
not know what else to do. Many of you
are entirely too immature to know
what you want or why you want it.
"It seems to be a common plan for
girls to take up teaching as a profes
sion merely to find something to occupy
time until the right man proposes. Such
teachers are the burden of our high
schools."
President Wheeler then continued by
stating that his objection to girls com
ing to the university while "Immature"
was that they were the ones who gig
gled and were prone to carrying on flir
tations on the campus. He concluded
by warning them not to giggle or flirt,
as he said college was a place for seri
ous work,

Hours at Mercy of Waves-

excursion steamer for this port, after
being adrift in the dingy of his launch

engines gave out and the boat sprang
a leak. Seeing that sffe was bound to
drift on the rocks. Love and his com
panion abandoned -her finally at 4
o'clock Monday morning, and took to
their frail dingy, in which they re
mained without food or water for 15
hours, when they reached Sechel. The
launch was picked up at Pender Har
bor, much battered by the rocks.

CAPETOWN. Aug. 20. The government
and the Admiralty have abandoned the
search for the missing steamer Waratah,
which left Port Natal July 26 for London

way, and won by about 10 miles in the
exceptional time of 1:32:48 5-10. This

The Bulck (Chevrolet), Marion (Men
son) and Marion (Stutz) dropped out
early in the race.
Strang n'ever stopped once during the
100 miles, his car working like a care
fully adjusted piece of delicate mechan
ism. His pace was uniform throughout.
The American Automobile Association
will not withdraw Its sanction from the
meet, as Its officials are satisfied that
the speedway officials have done every
thing in their power to make the course
safe,

Before Strang started on his remark
able race, the honors had gone to Zen
del, who established a new 10-mile rec
ord In his new Chadwick, This was the
second time in the meet that this rec

duced 01dfleld's mark of 9:12 3-5 yes
terday, when he won a 10-mile race in
8:66 4-10, and Zendel slashed this to
8:23 2-10 in the 10-mile free-for-all
today.
Altken, in a National, who finished
second in that event, had the honor of
breaking Chevrolet's old . mark, as his
time was 8:32 6-10.

Correspondence.) Although the House
today voted in favor of nominating can
didates by the direct primary method in
the forthcoming special election in the
Second Congressional District, the bill,
if it passes the Senate, cannot apply to
such election unless the election Is de
ferred until late In December.
The numerous absentees and a fight put
up against the bill -by opponents of the
Governor resulted In the measure carry
ing by only one more than the constitu
tional majority and not a sufficient num
ber to adopt an emergency clause. As the
bill now stands the new law would not
become effective until the latter part of
November, and as It requires that the
election shall not be held within 20 days
of the issuance of the call the successor
of Congressman Cushman cannot be
chosen under the direct primary method
and reach the National capital in time
to take his seat at the beginning of the
next regular session of Congress.

House, but a motion to reconsider was
adopted and .the chance thus given was
utilized by the friends of the measure
in summoning back post haste friends of
the Governor in the House who had left
the city.
Beach, of Mason, opened an attack on
the bill and launched a severe criticism
against Governor Hay for the Governor's
action . alleged by Beach to have been
taken at a conference of Southwest
Washington Legislators last week.
According to the story related by
Beach today in the House, there were
28 of the 41 Legislators present at this
conference, which was called by the Gov
ernor. "Three or four spoke in favor of the
direct primary," said Beach. "And four
or five spoke differently. Then an ab

in. The Governor asked him what he
thought of the subject and tha Senator
expressed a preference for tho primary
