"I am leaving personally tonight for up river points, having determined to see to it personaly that these vio lations . are stopped. I called the prosecuting attorney of The Dalles, up today on the 'phone and he assur ed me that he would gladly do any thing in his power to help .me out his excuse for not having issued tho warrant asked for by my deputy, as he claimed, being due to the fact that the deputy tried to tell him his busi ness, and he resented it. You can readily see, that the most of the deputies that I have been able to secure are "green-horns in the busi ness and there may be something in the district attorney's excuse for not having issued the warrant. As you are familiar with all violations that have been reported on the lower riv er, do not deem it necessary to men tion same."

CONSIDER AEROPLANES FOR WAR PURPOSES MR.- WRIGHT FINDS HE CAN DROP WEIGHTS ACCURATELY. MAY REVOLUTIONIZE WAR Aerial Craft Could be Launched From Decks of Battleship and From on High Could Drop Explosives of Terrible Power on the Enemy. WASHINGTON', Sept. 12.-The chance remark of a sergeant of ar tillery at Fort Mycr during the aero plane flights of Orville Wright was the basis for a discussion of one of the important features of the gov ernment interest of the aerial craft for war purposes. The discussion took place at a dinner tendered to Mr. Wright by naval officers. Said the sergeant: "Airships arc no good to launch a shell from became you can't get the 'centrifugal force' that is necessary to hit an object." The idea which the non-commis-ioned officer intended to convey was that the whirling motion given a shell by a modern steel bore gun could not be accomplished' in dropping an explosive shell from an airship. The main facts brought out in the discussion of the aeroplane as an in strument of war we're that a machine such as that of the Wright Brothers would be practically invulnerable as a target for the enemy's guns; with a little target practice an explosive could be dropped on a war vessel with damaging results and that the aerial war craft could be launched from the deck of a battleship. Mr. Wright said that he ha'd made experiments with a springing weight to see how closely he could hit ob jects over which he was flying. "1 found that after a little practice it became comparatively easy to put the weight just where 1 wanted it," said Mr. Wright. "One allowance which must be made is the effect of a wind striking the course of the air ship at right angles." "On your present machine, how much weight could be added in the shape of a gun?" Mr. Wright was asked by Lieutenant Sweet, the na val officer detailed to observe the Fort Myer aeronautical tests. "One hundred and fifty pounds," replied Mr.. Wright The merits of launching an explo sive from a gun was then discussed. Mr. Wright said there would not be a sufficient "kick" to cause the aero plane to diverge from its course. 1 A shell dropped into the funnel of a warship, would cause a terrible dam age to the machinery and completing its work of destruction by bursting the boilers. It was suggested by one of the officers present that attacks could be made by a number of aero planes as is now done by the torpedo boats. It was pointed out that the greater cheapness of the aeroplane and the fact that but one life for each ship would be sacrificed would make these attacks much more economical from both a humanitarian and a mon etary viewpoint. HER SAD MISTAKE. French Girl Who Forever Left Her Lover Is Now Dead. NEW YORK, Sept. 12. The rea son Mile. Louize Barbay, who died the other day, took a place as maid in the home of Mrs. John R. Brady, widow of Supreme Court Justice Bra dy, in Flushing, is revealed by a man who says he is M. Didier, but declines to give his address. His story unfolds a singular romance. M. Didier was a school teacher and lived at the inn of M. Barbey in the village of Tartas in the south of France. He fell in love with the inn keeper's daughter who was his own age. When he left he held the girl's promise to some day be his wife. But one day a friend named Val don brought his sister to a fete at Monte de Marsca and asked the school master to entertain her for a few minutes. While the couple were sitting by the roadside Louize passed 'n a .carriage. She glanced scornfully at Didier, he said, and told the driver to whip up his, horses. That night Didier sent her a letter of explanation, but it was not answered. As soon as possible he went to Tartas, where the hotel keeper told him Louize had dis appeared the day following the fete in the other village.

The trunks which the story said contained fine clothing for the time when she should become a fine lady undoubtedly held ! her trousseau. She was never any- ( thing but a lady, no matter what place she took for her bread and butter.
