Been ' Once in Jeopardy. The extortion case against Adolph ' Adler la to go before another grand Jury. Adler was Indicted on a charge of ' having attempted to extort $400 from 8Igmund Biahel by means of a threat ening letter. On motion of counsel for j the defendant the Indictment waa I quashed by Judge Morrow In ths circuit j court tins morning ana me jury in structed to find the man not guilty. Moat of the morning waa taken up by argument by counsel for Adler. who cuntended that the indictment waa cie- i fectlve. His argument waa that the paper which Adler had liandd J1r. Hlch- ti waa not addressed, that Adler had not made any atatement himself nbout I extorting money and that all In all the contenta of the Indictment were Insuf ficient to cover ths charge made against the man. The letter alleged to have been hand ed to Mr. Sichel by the defendant called, I lor 1400 at once and raid further that unless it was forthcoming Mr. SIchel and nis ramlly would be dealt with se verely. Mr. tJlchel refused the demand for money and -railed the police. Just previous to the beginning of the argument on behalf of the defense, the jury to hear the case had been passed upon by both sides. It la underatood that- Adler's attor ney will now. claim that the Drlsoner ; has been In Jeopardy, the Jury having been selected to try the caae. and that . according to law, the charges against Adler cannot again be placed before another grand Jury.

"This girl Is more to be pitied than censured," said Deputy District Attorney llennessy this morning in police court In moving for the dismissal of the charge against Pearl Ross, a girl ac cused of having passed a forged check on Olds.

Josselyn of the I Portland Railway. Light & Power com pany, who Is at nresent out of the city, ! rseigned his position as the head of the ! company during his tecent stay in New According to those directors and offl- land. there Is absolutely no foundation for the rumor. Assistant to the presi dent, F. F. Barbour, denied the rumor most emphatically this morning. "I am sure that If there was any in tention of such an. action on Mr. Josse lyn't part ha would have notified me." said MV arbour, s "Me, will be back Monday morning to speak for him self, but in the meantime I can state positively that he has not resigned and does not intend to.'' The same report that said Mr. Jossn. lyn had resigned said that C. L. Swigert, president of the Pacific Bridge com pany ana rormer head or the street railway company, would succeed Mr. josselyn. Mr. Bwlrert is. out of the city and could not be reached. allow her to go wrong. She went into Olds. Worthman & King's yesterday and passed a bogus check, buying a hat with .' It. But she has made good the amount and the complainants are willing to 1ft the matter drop. As 1 say, I think the " girl la more to be pitied than, censured, And I think this is one of the cases where the mantle of mercy should be wrapped, around an unfortunate woman.

They have made the great bag dirigible and adapted it to the uses of war, and have planned to send it on voyages of discovery that would rival the experiences of the Plnta and Nina and Santa Maria of Columbus' modest fleet. The balloon ha. great possibili ties, hut it is on the heavler-than-alr machine the aeroplane, the orthoptcr and the heltocopter that the nations of the world are pinning their faith and with which they expect to make the greatest and most sweenlne- revolu tions the political and social history of the world has ever known. Air IrfyrteriM An Uasolred, Tied to earth for B0 centuries or more, man ha. studied the things of the earth, the around under his feet. the water, that wash his .bores. He has studied th. skies from afar off and even a. his early commerce-seeking ancetors of Phoenicia and his conquest-seeking ancestors or Norway studied the stars for guidance inthelr sea-rovlnes. so has he studied m hem. But what do we know of the air Itself, beyond what the weather bureau, of the government has taught us. gleaned from Its meteorological survey? What do we know of Uie winds hevond the fact that they blow so many 'miles an hour frorn this or that direction? Whst do we know of the thousands of little currents that ever chop and change. wave above wave. stratum above stratum, making the navigation of the skies a thouMnd times more dangerous than the navigation of the seas? If man shall fly. tt will be an achievement bought with great sacri fice, but what achievement ha. not beet) bought this way. what success has not been purchased st a great price?

The pull of the ocean current or the rlv.er is as nothing compared with the sweep of the air currents that the aerial navigator must face, and he must master the art of bal ancing his craft to meet the sudden ed dies and whirls of air. According to Professor Newcomb, "the mathematical relations hetween Kpeed, sustaining power, strength and material efficiency of the engine and other elements of success are fixed and determinate, and can not be changed ex cept by new scientific discoveries, quite outside the power of the Inventor to make." So far the success of the pio neers in aeroplane sajling Maxim, Cha- nute. Liangley. Lillenthal. Pllchcr. Cur- tiss. Farman and the Wrights ha. been chiefly duo to the fact that they skimmed on the currents of air as an expert skater skims over thin leer. Their speed has saved them. Great BUksotbtt of Lang-ley. Largely upset Newton's theoiv that the Dower expended ln flying must In crease so rapidly with tho speed that mechanical tl ent would he honeieas. Dangley Droved that a surface in the air can be driven with lens power at high than at low speeds, and nls proof became a law. He might have proved more things had not death stilled his hand and brain. By experiment two young American fellows proved on the Kittv Hawk sands of North Carolina rfnd on the fields back of Dayton, what learned scientists have been trying to figure out by big books, by rule and by table for many weary years. Thev have proved that aviators can not build their plans for sky navigating on the same hypotheses on Which they build for sailing the seas, and with other pioneers thev are yet firm in their faith that they will make good their own theories. If man should fly. would It not es sentially bring about a new order of ad ministration? Possibly a new portfolio would be in demand, ln the cabinets of various nations. To our own cabinet might be added a secretary of aerial af fairs. He would take from the depart ment of state the nuzzling International questions that aerial argosies might precipitate when disregarding political boundaries. He would take the revenue utter service from the treasurv de partment and police the nlr with skillful smuggler seekers. He would take over the weather bureau from the depart ment of agriculture, special mail from the postoffice department, and the wire less telegraph stations from the dpnart. ment of war. He would be one of a great Interna tional board of arbitration, composed of the men holding nlmllar positions In other governments. All these would ave been Drought together under the great slogan: "Federate or fall." for e machine which conauers the air will rule the world.
