Do not fail to be present. W. W. HINTZ, Pastor Fails In Attempt To Span Continent (Continued from page one) Engine Developes Trouble The end of Maughan's second attempt at an all day transcontinnental flight, came in somewhat the same manner as that of his first, although he had covered twice the distance. It was through the fault of the engine which the most skilled mechanics had not forseen and could not repair for hours. A tiny stream of oil, spurting from an aperture in a pipe of the speeding plane's engine, caused suffocating fumes to fly into the face of the pilot as h e held his Curtiss bullet in its westward course. For a time he fought off the consequent nausea, taking the air from Chyenne, Wyo., his third stopping place on the flight from Mitchel field, New York in a sickened .condition. At the l>order between Wyoming and Utah, he could stand no more and the spirit that held Maughan's eyes on the western horizon where Rockies were soon to loom, could not overcome the handicap. Postpone Next Trial Washington, July 20 —Lieut. Russell L. Maughan, “speed king,” of the army air service, will not be able to make another attempt at the dawn to dusk transcontinnental flight until next summer, Major W. H. Frank, executive officer to Major General Patrick, chief of the air service, said today. Lieut. Maughan was forced down at Rock Springs, Wyoming, at 5: OS p. m. yesterday, with a leak in his oil cooler. Frank pointed out that by the time Maughan's little high speed plane had been put into shape and all other arrangements had been completed for another flight, the length of daylight would have become too short for the lieutenant to make another attempt at the flight with a fair chance of succeeding. “Already about three-quarters of an hour in daylight has been lost since the first attempt,” Frank said. “By the time everything would be ready for a third try, another hour w-ould be lost, and Maughan would be under the handicap of about two hours less daylight.” Must Have New Engine It was pointed out by Major Frank that a new engine w-ould have to be installed in Maughan's plane and a number of other arrangements riiade

that would take a good deal of time, Frank expressed the opinion thnt a third try at the dawn to dusk flight could not be made until next June.
