Aeroplane for Freight.

Douglass, Ariz.—Dr. J. j. p. Armstrong has contracted with A. M. Williams, an aviator of this city, to convey placer mining machinery from Douglass to a property in the Chihuahua mountains, Mexico. The distance is about three hundred miles The machinery is such that it can be carried only in one hundred pound lots. Williams owns and operates a monoplane. This is probably the first contract made calling for the commercial use of a heavier-tban-alr machine.
