EYES OPENED BY WRIGHT’S FLIGHT
Admiral Seymour Now Believes Plane Has Come to Stay. ACCIDENT FOLLOWS TRIUMPH Hole Ripped In Canvas by the Blowing Loose of Cylinder Head of the Machine’s Engine—Day or Two Required to Make Repairs—Aviator Says Anything Is Likely to Happen In the Air When Asked Whether Similar Mishap Could Have Occurred While Aloft.

from many countries saw the Dayton inventor glide to his goal and back almost directly over the decks of their ships at anchor in the Hudson. Admiral Sir Edward Seymour of the British fleet said: “After seeing Mr. Wright's wonderful exhibition I am sure the aeroplane Is here to stay. The thing that Impressed me most was the steadiness of his machine. He made a beautiful turn over the cruiser Drake and sailed all the way with consummate ease.*’ Wright was preparing for a second flight when an accident occurred. Due to excessive explosive pressure, a cylinder head blew loose and shot through the canvas of the upper plane, ripping a large hole. As soon as the damage was ascertained, the aviator ordered the machine wheeled back to its shed. Such repairs as were needed to put this flier into commission again, he said, would occupy several days and he could not stop in New Yorl that length of time. He was asked if the accident could have happened while the machine was up in the air. “Yes," he said. "It could have; anything can happen in the air."

Not Allow Prosperity to Make Them Inert—Executive Enjoys Game of Bridge and Is Pleased With View of Snow Capped Mount Shasta. San Francisco, Oct 5. After making one of the longest jumps of his trip and traveling for twenty-five hours through Oregon and the northern half of California, President Taft arrived in Sacramento to remain there until 4 o’clock'this morning, when he started for Oakland and this city. The president was met at the state capital by another large crowd.

The president selected for the principal feature of his speech the conservation of natural resources. Plays Bridge on Train. Taft thoroughly enjoyed his day on the train. He read a little, lounged about the car, played a friendly game of “bridge” with members of his party, and during the five or six hours Mount Shasta was in sight admired that towering peak in all the changing aspects the winding railroad brought into view. After passing today in San Francisco, Taft heads for the Yosemite valley. He never has been among the old giant trees in the valley, which are said to be the oldest living things In the world. The president has been warned that the dust going in and coming out of the park at this time of the year is annoying. Special khaki outfits will be provided. President Taft was welcomed into California at Red Bluff by Governor Gillett, Senator Perkins, former Secretary of the Navy Victor Metcalf, M. H.

cessor, Theodore Roosevelt, and it is my duty to continue these policies and to enforce them as far as I may, and put upon the statute books, or at least recommend to congress that there be put upon the statute books, those laws that shall clinch the progress which was made under him, which he preached and which we all look forward to as a permanent condition. “But the difficulty is that whenever everybody is prosperous, when everybody is comfortable, then Is the time when our old friend Satan steps in and helps along the evil cause. Then' is the time when we are apt to be inert and enjoy the things we have without looking forward in the future and seeing that the evils will grow and ultimately swamp us. It is to the people that we must look for an enforcement of these principles.”
