The plane carrying 700 gallons of gasoline weighed 11,000 pounds at the start and can 'aver age from 100 to 110 miles an hour, although it probably will do 120 late in the night when the ship is lightened by the use of fuel. - Memos carries mail which wis shipped from Paris Saturday night and reached St. Louis at 9 o'clock this morning, 30 hours in all.

In lieu of nickels, into a candy slot machine at a store on S. Winter street.
