Smith’s Dry Stand Is Given Approval By Mrs. Marshall — —. ..A Washington, Sept. 24.—Mrs. Thomas R. Marshall, widow of ex-Vice President Marshall, now head of the Worn-an's-Smith Club of southern Cali fornia, today wired from California to Democratic headquarters her approval of the governor's prohibition stand and her appreciation of Mrs. Smith. “I am familiar with Governor Smith's record as legislator and governor, and I firmly believe that he will make an excellent president," her telegram said. “Dr. Henry Van Dyke's recent article against religious Intolerance effectively disposes of the objection to Governor Smith's religion. I feel that Governor Smith will enforce the prohibition law, and if the people do not want such lawchanged it will, of course, remain to be enforced. I had the pleasure of meeting Governor Smith's wife at the Houston convention and found her delightfully cordial. Her success in the governor's mansion at Albany demonstrates that she will grace the White House. She has proven a fine wife and a good mother —what more can be said of any woman? She is self-effacing and as it appears to me her distinguished husband's marvelous success in public affairs has sat isfied her own ambitions." o Federal Grand Jury To Meet At South Bend Again South Bend, Ind., Sept. 24. —(U.K) — The third federal grand jury to convene in five months will begin sessions here Oct. 1 in what Oliver Loomis, U. S., district attorney announces is a determined effort for a “clean-up" of liquor and vice conditions in northern Indiana. Loomis declared “we’ll keep right on having federal grand jury sessions until we get some of these conditions in the northern district of Indiana cleaned up.” The federal court for the northern district will convene Oct. 1 with about 100 cases on the docket for trials. o Klan Dedicates Haven At New Albany; Bar Reporters New Albany. Ind., Sept. 24. —(U.R)— Newspaper reporters were barred when the KI Klux Kan organization of this city dedicated its New Haven near here Sunday, but friends of reporters told them speakers were Joseph Huffington, Indianapolis, head of the kan in Indiana, and a woman whose name was given as Mrs. Mary Margaret Parker, Indianapolis. The speakers, the reporters were told, denounced Gov. Alfred E. Smith as a candidate for president. Dedication of the haven as the first klan demonstration in Floyd county in four years. The haven is a former school building a mile northeast of here, which the klan bought recently at public auction. o SEVENTY KILLED IN THEATRE FIRE IN MADRID, SPAIN (CONT.M’En FROM PAGE ONB) lower floor. The actors escaped through the stage entrance. The fire was caused by a short circuit backstage. A sheet of flame shot out toward the audience. The safety curtain either did not work or the person responsible failed to release it. As the blaze came out from the stage, many of the persons occupying stalls leaped into the infero below, hoping to escape quicker. Just then the uppee tiers collapsed. Hundreds were trapped in the balcony when the stairs fell. Three persons, including a child, were seen atop the debris, burning like torches. There was not the slightest chance to rescue them. - o- ■ - — Btf Lumber inaustry The largest lumbering operation In the world is conducted on the island of Anticosti, at the mouth of the St. Lawrence river. It supplies nbouf 150.000 cords of pulpwood n yenr to American industries. o Many Specie* of Mosquito There are several hundred known species of mosquitoes', and the dura tlon of life varies considerably. Adult mosquitoes live for several months and in some species many of the females hibernate through the winter.

THAW AND MORRIS NOT DISCOURAGED (CONTINUED FROM I"AUE ONE) had dreamed about it for a year. He placed the order for the plane last July and he and Capt. Morris flew it from Los Angeles to New \ork a few days before the race, making about tour stops enroute. "Jack is a wonderful pilot,’’ said Col. Thaw about his companion, Captain Morris. “I have been flying with him off and on for the last five years." Col. Thaw described their flight from New York westward until their forced landing on the farm of Dr. C. R. Price, near Geneva. He said they had arranged with friends sos signals at McKeesport, Pa., to give them information as to weather and winds. Everything went well that far and they received their information, at McKeesport through a system of flares on the ground. They continued westward. Shortly after they left Pittsburgh, Capt. Morris measured their oil supply and found that only a fraction of an inch of the total supply of more than 12 inches had been consumed, so far. The motor was performing nicely. A little later, the temperature of the motor began to soar and when it was several degrees higher than the maximum should be, Capt. Morris measured the oil again and found only about four inches left. It was then that the fliers realized that their oil line had broken and their precious oil was rapidly escaping. Col. Thaw said that while they were glying over Ohio, they ran into a storm and changed their course slightly northward. They had intended to cross Indiana about forty miles south of here. Search For Lighted Field “With the femperatwe of the motor about 175 degrees, we expected it to burst into flames most any minute and we knew that we should land immediately, but we flew on for nearly two hours, hoping to find a lighted airport,” said Col. Thaw today. "Finally, the motor got hotter and Jack said we'd have to land. I reached for the flare we carried, and hooked it to a hoolt on the outside of the ship and dropped it. When the flare reached the end of the small cable attached to the hook, it was lighted and started floating slowly toward the ground. For a few seconds, the ground was lighted as clear as daylight and Jack picked out the smooth level field on the Price farm for a landing. He started coming down and when we were about 200 feet above the ground and Jack was leveling our ship, the flare went out. "When the bright light suddenly went .out, we could see nothing. I reached for a small flashlight I carried and, holding it outside a small door. 1 turned it on, but neither of us could see the ground by the dim light it afforded. Jack had intended to clear the wire and rail fence and then land in the level field, but after the flare went out. he could not see and the tail of the ship must have struck the wire fence. The plane then crashed into the reail fence and was wrecked. It was 3:45 o’clock by my wrist PUBLIC SALE I, the undersigned, will sell at public auction al my residence nt 224 North Filth street, commencing at 1;(X) P. M.

watch when we started to land. When we first came to after the crash. I looked at my watch and it was 4:45 o'clock, (Eastern daylight saving time). We were lying close together. I felt a numbness about my hip and 1 feared I was bleeding profusely. 1 gave myself a hurried examination and found no blood. .1 did likewise to Jack and found that he was not bleeding. I heard the gasoline running from the punctured tanks. Fearing that the wreckage might yet catch fire, we managed to drag ourselves about 25 feet away, ack still had his parachute on his back and he removed it and spread it over us. That kept the rain off, as it soon started to sprinkle. For about three hours, we frequently lapsed into unconsciousness or fell asleep. We had no idea how far we were from any town or house and I knew neither of us could travel. So we sure were happy to hear Mr. Wiest coming across the field toward us." Col. Thaw said he had had other I serious accidents while flying, but had never suffered a broken bone. He said that he did very little flying by himself any more, doing only enough of actual piloting to secure his license. He is engaged in the general insurance business in Pittsburgh. During the World war, Thaw was a Lieutenant Colonel and was commander of the famous Lafayette Esquadrille. He brought down five enemy planes and was reported kill-1 ed on several occasions. He was decorated with the Croix de Guerre and I the U. S. Distinguished Flying Cross. He was discharged in July, 1919. and ' has not been connected with the army since that time. Capt. Morris served as an instructor in the aviation corps in France during the war. He was such a good instructor that the higher officers would not let him go to the front, but j kept him back of the lines to train I other pilots. He received his training at Kelly Field, Texas. At present. |
