Rival, "Finest Aviator In World."

Graham White, the English aviator,
who lost the $50,000 airship race with
Louis Paulhan, took his defeat like a
true sportsman. When at Polesworth
he was told of the Frenchman's success,
he mounted the seat of an automobile
and cried:
"Ladles and gentlemen, the $50,000
prize has been won by Louis Paulhan,
the finest aviator the world has ever
seen. Compared with him I am only a.
novice. Three cheers for Paulhan."
The crowd gathered about the English
man gave the cheers heartily. . following
them with a round of cheers for White.
Speaking of the flight which he made.
White said:
"I was completely turned around three
times by the wind. I managed to get
over the telegraph wires and got a start
over the track of the railroad at Reade
by the aid of the signal lights, but over
a good , many miles about Rugby I saw
no signal lights and there was consider
able wind."
Paulhan followed the railway line all
the way to Manchester, usually at a
height of 300 feet, but ascending to 700
feet when passsing over towns and the
people who turned out to cheer saw. but
a spot In the sky.
White was one of the first to tele
graph congratulations to his rival. His
message read:
"I take the earliest opportunity of of
fering you my heartiest congratulations
on your splendid performance. The bet
ter man has won."
Paulhan's victory was won handsome
ly, but he was benumbed with cold and
thoroughly exhausted when he reached
here. He made the last 24 miles In
exactly 24 minutes, outdistancing the
special train bearing his wife, Henry
larman and other friends.

guarded by members of the brother
hood. So much coal Is burned up In
one trip with the monsters that one
fireman Is physically unable to supply
the fuel, according to statements of
the men. While It Is not known how
serious the objections to the Mallets
are. it is said unofficially that the ques
tion will have to be settled in some
way, and that soon, or there will be
serious trouble between the company
and the flremon.
There has been continual objection to
the engines ever since they were put
on. Their size is almost twice that of
the big Moguls that were formerly
used.

mitted, a clear statement of what he
terms the facts in the land scandal

tract with K. A. Shaw for the payment
of a commission in the Lemhi irrigation
project, but denies that he was to per
form the services called for until after
he was out of office. The board ad
journed last night with Church on the
carpet. It will reconvene tomorrow
morning.
-Brady Shuts Out Press.
Through the initiative of Brady, the
Land Board denied admittance to all
press representatives to Its session.
There was great Indignation as a re
sult. In so doing Brady explained he
took the action because he believed the
members of. the ,Board constitute the
same relations to the Executive of the
state as members of the Cabinet in th
National Government.
One of the important developments
tonight was the charge made by C. J.
Perkins, promoter of the West End
Twin Falls project, and also Interested,
In the old Dubois project, that Church
had. as a representative of Spearman
Mason interests, endeavored to effect a
compromise whereby f 16, 000 in cash'
and $16,000 in water contracts were to
be paid for the relinquishment of In

Mason people.

three of the board members fixed." In
addition he wanted to be employed as at

Any Office,
DEFENDER HOWLED DOWN
Hearst's Business Manager, At
tempting to Uphold His Chief, Is
. Put Out of Hall by House De
tectives Mayor Is Cheered.
NEW YORK, April 28. Special.)
Mayor Gaynor told members of the As
sociated Press and the American News
paper Association at their Joint dinner
in the Waldorf-Astoria tonight that
William R. Hearst, proprietor of a New
York newspaper, perennial candidate
for every office from.. Mayor to Presi
dent, Is a disgrace to Journalism. He
attempts to assassinate everyone who
stands in his way, said the Mayor, and
had committed "two state prison fel
onies, a forgery and a falsification of a
public document" in publishing an al
leged fac-simlle of a sity draft with
the apparent purpose of charging
Mayor Gaynor with the responsibility
for an extravagant personal use of city
funds when, as a matter of fact, the
draft was authorized and drawn by the
preceding City Administration.
Mayor Loudly Cheered.
(Breathless attention was given to
Mayor Gaynor's calm and measured
enunciation to these charges. When the
assemblage realized .his full meaning,
the Mayor was wildly and repeatedly
cheered.
As ho concluded his addreesv T. T.
Williams, business manager for Mr.
Hearst, dashed through the ballroom Irt
which the dinner was given, brushing
roughly past the diners and with clenched
flet held high, took a stand at the edge
of the table where the officers and direc
tors of the two organizations with their
guest9 were seated.
"Mr. Chairman. " he shouted to Na
thaniel O. Wright, toastmaster, but his
voice was drowned in roar of disap
proval. Mr. Wright motioned him away, and he
was finally led out by house detectives.
George Ade, who delivered a brief ad
dress on "Helping the Editor," said:
Associated Press Has Merits.
Mr. Toastmaster anil Gentlemen : The As
sociated Press is a great institution. Around
a newBpaper office we always felt envy In
our minds if we knew the Associated Press
was on the Job. My out-of-town assignment
was usually given to me in the following
words: "Send In a good story the Asso
ciated Press will cover the facts
. I respect the Associated Press because it
hes nothing to do with the Sunday supple
ment. The Associated Press never sent in
a heavy editorial at 10 P. M. and marked
it "must." It never ordered pictures to
go with the stuff and It never came around
the next day to Inquire why he had not been
played up. The Associated Press bears the
same relation to the modern American news
paper that the solid, business man does to
thvi American family. It stands iu the back
ground, provides the wherewithal, keeps out
of the spotlight, takes all the blame and
gets mightly little glory. When there Is a
grand Jubilee, father and tbo Associated
Press are behind the potted palms with the
orchestra checking up the expenses.
I am glad to be here, for several reasons.

Leavitt to Reginald Owen," said William
Homer Leavitt, the artist, here tonight,
discussing, for the first time since they

The notice of the coming marriage of
his former wife came aa a complete
surprise to him. Ho has no personal

Nebraska law a woman cannot get a
divorce for non-support and mental
cruelty, unless of two years standing.
Neither can a divorced . woman remarry

Xational Charter for Fund.
NEW YORK. April 28. It was reported
here today that J. r. Rockefeller, an
gered at the reception accorded to his
plan to establish an enormous philan
thropic foundation and weary of the de
lays imposed upon' the National incorpo
ration of the plan, will abandon the bill
introduced by Senator Gallinger. Al
though no one could be found at No. 26
Broadway who would profess to know
anything about the report tt was said In
partial confirmation that S. J. Murphy,
the oil king's attorney has let it be
known that Mr. Rockefeller is displeased
with the delay and lack of enthusiasm
with which his proposition has been re
ceived. If Rockefeller has decided to abandon
the project for Federal incorporation, he
may attempt to secure a charter from
some state, probably New Tork. It was
noted in this connection that a
bill is now before the State Legis
lature for the incorporation of a char
itable foundation, which in said by its
backers to have the support of an un
named New York millionaire, who wishes
to leave a large share of his fortune to
be administered for charity through, this
