Hoxsey was a fatalist, one of the many whose strange temperament has helped make aviation possible. "If It's after me. It'll get me." ha used to- say. This symbolic '"it" is recognized and feared by all. They feel there's a thing lurking in the clouds a death-dealing thing that patiently- awaits their day. To this uncanny feeling, this grewsome premonition, their fatalism is trace able. There is something beautiful and ter rible in tha conception tnat even the moat unimaginative aviator holds of the thing that waits for him up In the sky. Often with supreme fatalism he talks Indifferently on the subject, hud dled In a tent or on the lee side of a ! hangar when the wind Is booming and the canvas flapping heavily at Its straining ropes. "I'll' get us yet. ' he. says when the wind whistles its loudest: "it'll get us an It did Johnstone, -aMoxsey, Molsant, Rolls. Le Blon all of Jhem." That's his way of referring to the thing luck, chance, fate, death. But we whom the air has -not transformed Into fatalists can subject the matter to cold analysis. We can separate the elements of thla weird compound that has made these men more indifferent to life than were ever the swarthy soldier of Mohammed. - W can see. Instead of the vague shape that somewhere behind the clouds is taklnti those who once yield to Its damp,Tnisty terror, the many causes of accidents In the air. For clarity, let us place these causes in groupings: Flrst--Ther Is the strange psychol ogy of flying. Accidents to themselves do not make aviators careful; rather, they have an opposite effect. "Lightning does not twice strike in th same place In the same way," they reason, "and if it's going to strike us in another place. It will, that's all." Also, accidents to other aviators have no effect on them. Remember, Hoxsey at Penver and Los Angeles. It- was his turn" Is the attlude. Second There Is the carelessness of flying, which is best subdivided In this waja: 1. Relaxation of nervous tension. 1. 'Momentary loss of balance. I. Overconf ldence. 4. Confounding recklessness. Ignor ance of dantrer and fatalistic Indiffer ence with bravery. fflORE CROP DAMAGE Fresh Reports Cause Active Buying of Wheat.

Su perior persons promptly class all legen dary lore with myths and fables, and turn away contemptuously from such Idle stories. But the humble student of thesa matters knows that all the more persistent traditions are really in stances, often amazing ones, of folk memory, confused and distorted per haps, but bearing the actual imprint of tbe feelings and thoughts of gener ations ago. In certain parts of England there still linger vague traditions of dragons, and the terror and " devastation they occasioned. That these were no flesh and blood creatures of thoso early days when feai-some beasts roamed the country Is shown by the prevalence of such tales In certain places only, and the fact that no other animal, however alarming. ' has Inspired such dread. There can be little doubt that where these legends are found in cSast dis tricts they preserve the remembrance of past descents of the marauding Danes in their dragon ships, and the awful havoc they created. Even now the fear implanted so long ago is not absolutely dead, for the reputed stronghold of the dragon (generally the site of ari ancient battle) is left se verely alone, by the children, and even the men will not willingly go near the spot after dark. Many antiquaries are now inclined to think that the belief In fairies or pix ies, which still lingers in some out-of-the-way corners of England, is another Instance, lmmeasureably ancient, of folk memory. The '"little people" axe. It is thought, those ancient Ivernian inhabitants of Britain, who, physically Inferior in stature and warlike char acteristics to the invading Gaels, were driven by them into the fastnesses of cave and hill and forest. As they lost the'ir fear of their conquerors they oc casionally revisited their old haunts, sometimes to play pranks, sometimes to render substantial help, according to the reward they received for their services. There are may tales in the west of the Pixies coming regularly to do housework, make bread, or churn while the household slept, providing al ways that no one attempted to spy on them and that a bowl of the richest, fresheist cream was left out for them. If the cream was pour or any attempt was made to catch them at their work they never visited the house again. The stories of people being "pixy-led" may well have originated in the efforts of tbe little people to decoy from their haunts some person who bad strayed lata th neighborhood of them.- But this instance, if Instance it be. of folk memory. Is so lost in the mist of an tiquity as to be incapable of proof. Testimony to the truth of an ancient tradition is sometimes forthcoming in an unexpected way. A well-known anti quary tells the story of a friend of his who was informed by an old man that a certain barrow was haunted by the ghost of a soldier in " golden armor. This gentleman waa able to have the barrow opened, and there was found the skeleton of a man with a bronze breast-plate, who had been burled in Anglo-Saxon times, -or earlier. So the old man's tale of the ghost was a true Instance of folk, memory, a tradition which had been passed on from one generation to another -for about 1300 years. At Shingay, in Cambridgeshire, there still exists a tradition that "once upon a time" people were brought, by night, in a "fairy cart" to be buried at Shin gay, but why the legend does not say. Yet It is a plain statement of truth, handed down from father to son since the days when King John ruled, and England lay under an interdict which forbade all religious services, even that of burial. But Shingay belonged to the Knights Hospitallers of St. John, and was exempt from the ban, so that those who had dead to bury brought them thither in secrecy, and at night, on a wheeled bier or "feretorium," a word that was easily converted by eye-witnesses into a cart that was called a "ferry" something, whence the transition to "fairy cart" is easy. So let those who are inclined to dis dain all tradition as foolishness look a second time lest trie folly lie in their own denseness. Many less ancient tra ditions have been manufactured to fit circumstances, many really old ones have been altered and post-dated to ac cord with newer facts, but in all the older ones lies the garm of truth, to be discovered by the patient searcher who seeks to trace the tangled thread to its beginning. A fascinating occu pation and one that will all too soon pass away as the printed record takes the place of the old folk memory which even now only lingers on in the as yet unspoiled nooks and corners of England. AUTOBUS RULES OLD-TIMK COACH DOWXEI) BY .MODERN" VEHICLE. Tom Rlckman, Last of Famous Four-Horse Teamsters, Finally Gives Way. to Progress. LONDON. April 16. The autobus has finally dominated London. Another link with the city's picturesque past has just been severed by the discontin uance of the last sujvivor of the real coach-omnibus, with its spanking team of four horses, which had performed the journey from the southern suburb of Bal ham to the city aa long as the present generation can recollect. The driver will be missed as much as the coach, for "Old Tom," as Tom Rick man was familiarly known along the route, has driven his little party of "regulars," as he termed his passen gers, for only a few months short of 30 years. . He is the embodiment of the typical old coachman, who 'used -so frequently to be seen on the high ways before the days of railways. His expansive, ruddy face was "well known to the police," and they, recognizing from afar The beaming countenance of "Old Tom." perched above his well groomed team, allowed the favored coachman to thread the London traf fic with a latitude that would never have been granted to a Junior whip or the most Impatient of chauffeurs. Old Tom's memory carries him back to the days when the London omnibus was a far less- commodious and com fortable vehicle than the one. he has just ceased to drive. One need not be a centenarian to recollect the rum bling old vehicle, on which outside passengers had to climb to their seats along the "knlfeboard" by perpendicu lar little iron steps, which afforded the scantletst foothold. No woman, in those days, ever dreamed of traveling on the outside of an omnibus, and the bold spirit who aspired to sit by the ide of the driver on the box seat had to hoist himself up by tlie aid of the strap which dangled from the front. The inside passengers. In Winter time, had the luxury of straw to keep their feet warm, and the sickly flame of an oil lamp, hung on the door at night, feebly illuminated the faces of the shivering occupants. The old coachman regrets the pass ing of those days, when the driver's seat was over the off wheel and there was always a good cigar to be had from his companion. He is very proud of his record oh. the road and besides his regular city trip he has driven down to 28 Derby races and has driven team of white Horses In as many Lord Mayors' shows. I wouldn't take my hat orr to any man driving four horses on the road," affirms Old Tom. It needs some driving, if you have a young horse that wants to read every advertisement on the roadside from Balham to Grace church street, and maybe to look In at the 'bus window now and again." Some years ago the proprietors of the omnibus decided it must go; but so earnest was the protest of the "reg ulars," who bound themselves by a written agreement to be reliable pas sengers every morning, that the own ers relented and the four-in-hand con tinued to bowl along the Clapham road and thread its way over London bridge n time for the day's routine. Another protest was promptly forth coming when the discontinuance of the service was recently announced, but this time it was without avail and Old Tom drove his sociable little party over London bridge for the last time. The pleasant morning drive behind the Jmgllng team Is now a memory of the past. SAVING FIFTH AVENUE Restricted. Height of Buildings to Preserve Historic Highway. Christian Science Monitor. The skyscraping office building and the skyscraping loft building have in vaded lower Fifth avenue. New York. A tremendous change In the character and appearance of the street has been wrought betwean Fourteenth and Twenty-third, street in the last few years. What has happened has hap pened: It is doubtful if it could have been prevented; the once stately resi dences have given way before the banking house, the mercantile building, the structures that aim for recognition in the skvltne. In at least one section of an avenue that has been the pride' of New Yorkers for generations, com mercialization has been complete. There appears to be little hope of keeping out the shops from other sec tions, but a hope is entertained that the shops which may spring up between Twenty-third and Fifty-ninth streets may be housed in buildings that will conform In some degree to, and not overshadow, the mansions. The appeal that Is raised in behalf of the preser vation of the avenue, and that has been answered by President McAneny's Fifth avenue commission, finds form in the wish and recommendation that the height of all bulldinsrs to be erected on the thoroughfare hereafter shall be restricted. The press of New York Is practically a unit in urging that steps be taken at once to preserve Fifth avenue as a thoroughfare for fine shops and im pressive homes. The general opinion is that it can legally be done, and that the doing of it will In no wise impair real estate values. On the contrary, the position Is taken that the restrictions which will conserve the traditional prestige and beauty of the avenue will enhance its frontage values. Restricted height will turn the constructor of of fice and loft buildings away, from it, of course. Height he must have in order to make his enterprises pay, but there are building investors to whom the thoroughfare will appeal all the more forcibly the moment it becomes known that it is to be preserved from the overshadowing presence of the sky scraper. The larger American cities, having all acquired the greatness of bigness and richness, are turning their atten tion to the esthetic. It has dawned upon the popular consciousness that mere bigness, mere population, mere business, do not quite meet their yearning. Everywhere the city planner is being granted a hearing; everywhere tlte man who is able to show a great community how It can make Itself look more attractive Is certain of an au dience. One of the first steps toward better things is the taking of care to preserve such good things as have es caped the "onward sweep of improve ment." Every city that has something that ought to be preserved should pre serve it first of all, and this will make theNnext step easier. New York sees Fifth avenue slipping away from her: she is trying to check, she may suc ceed in stopping the movement. All other cities that entertain a hope of saving their fine old streets from ob literation by the hand of what Is mis named "progress" will sympathize with the metropolis. The Sunset Trail.
