AEROPLANE FAILS TO FLY

Portland Machine, However, Leaves Ground in Beeond Test. Portland, Ind., June 21. —The Reich-ard-Suman aeroplane was given Its second test at the Watson farm, southwest of this city. While the machine did not make a flight, it rose from the ground, but was drawn back, presumably on account of the tail not being properly adjusted. In coming down the machine struck the ground in such a manner that one of the axles was slightly bent.
