0R0PSJ0 DEATH Every Bone in Body of Ralph Johnstone of the Wright Tearri Is Broken. HAD ALTITUDE RECORD One Wing of the Craft Broke While He Was Executing Spiral Stunt. Denver, Colo., Nov. 18. Deoth rode at Overland Park yesterday with Ralph Johnstone, holder of the world's aviation altitude record. While a crowd of 10,000 to 13.000 person' watched breathlessly, gasped, moaned, fainted. Johnstone dropped like a stone 500 feet In his Wroght biplane and was Instantly killed. His tragic flight was not without a thrilling struggle lth the grim passenger, for whoa the daring bird man realized that one t!r of his white wing was broken and that the earthward dive might mean the loss of fcls life i ho tried to climb swiftly to the top of hi aeroplane lest the heavy machinery crush out his life. But he coulld not manage It. When the spectators reached him his body lay beneath the engine of the biplane, with the white planes that had failed him In his time of need wrapped about It like a shroud. Nearly every bone In his body was broken. Gambled Once Too Often. He hod gambled with death once too often, but hp played the game to the end. fighting cooly and grimly to the last second to regain control of his broken machine. Fresh from his triumphs at Belmont Park, where he had broken the world's record for altitude with a night of 9,714 feet, Johnstone attempted to give 'the thousands of spectators an extra thrill with his most daring feat, tho spiral glide, which had made the Wright aviators famous. Tho spectators got their thrill but It cost Johnstone his life. Tho fatal flight was the second that Johnstone had made that afternoon. In the first flight, when he was In the air with Hoxley and - Brooklns, he had gone through his usual program- of dips' and glides with the machine apparently under perfect control. Then Johnstone rose again, and after a few circes of the course to gain height, headed toward tho foothills. Still ascending, he swept back in a big circle, and aa he reached the north pnri of the Inclosure he started his spiral glide. Ho was then at an altitude of about 300 feet. With his planes tilted at an angle of almost 30 degrees he swooped down In a narrow circle, the aeroplalnc seeming to turn almost In Its owu length. . As ho started the, second circle tn middle spur which braces the left ride of the lower plane gave way and the wing tips of both upper and lower planes folded up as though they had been hinged. Attempts to Right Plane. For a second Johnstone attempted to rleht the plane by warping' the other wing tip. Then the horrified spectators saw the plane swerve like a wounded bird and plunge straight toward the earth. Johnstone was thrown from his seat as the nose of the plane swung downward. lie caught on one of the wire stays and grasped one of the wooden braces of the tipper piano with both hands he fought by main strength to warp the planes so that their surface might catch the air and check his decent. For a second it seemed that he might succeed, for the football helmet he wore blew off and fell much more rapidly than the plane. The hope was momentery however, for when about 300 feet from the ground the machine turned completely over, and the spectators fled wildly as the broken plane, with the aviator 6till fighting grimly In Its mesh of wires and stays, plunged among them with a crash.

DIG TASK BEFORE HEXT LEGISLATURE Reapportionment of Congressional and Legislative Districts Up.

GO THROUGH RED TAPE Increase in Population Makes It Necessary to Readjust the Districts. Indianapolis. Nov. 18. Perhaps the most delicate of all the questions to come before the next legislature will be the matter of making a legislative reaDDortionment of the state. The new census shows such large increases In population in some of the counties that they will be entitled to a larger representation and It will be up to the legislature to redistrict the state in such manner as to meet this condition. - . Not only will the legislature have to make a legislative reapportionment, but it will also have on hand the task of redistricting the state Into congresslonal districts. As the matter now stands, Indiana will still be entitled to 13 members of congress. Under the federal law congress determines the number of congressmen to which each state is entitled. But it is the duty of the legislature to make the districts. Congress fixes the representation according to the population of the state. It may Increase or reduce the basis of representation and In this way increase or reduce the number of representatives in congress to which each state shall be entitled. Legislature Forms Districts. But when congress has determined the basis of representation the legislatures of the various states tackle the task of forming the districts, and this is where trouble comes, for the party in power in the legislature always tries so to group the counties as to make as many districts of Its own political complexion as possible. When the Indiana legislature takes up the work of redistricting the state It will find its greatest trouble in the northern half of the state, where there are some close districts and where the only remaining Republican district the Tenth is found. It is understood that an effort will be made to to form the Tenth district as to either throw Into it every, possible Republican county, thus making It overwhelmingly Republican and taking Republi can counties out of other districts, or else taking out some of the Republican counties and putting In some Democratic counties so as to make the dis trict Democratic. In either event there will come a yell from the Tenth district and any other district which may be affected by the re-districting for the dominant party in each district will seek to look out for Itself. One idea suggestea Is to cut off Tippecanoe county for the Tenth and add it to the Ninth, taking out Howard or Hamilton from the Ninth and adding them to the Eighth. Of course, this would raise a rumpus in the Ninth and in the Eighth, because it would make at least one of then a Republican district. 1 And so it will go wnen the legislature takes up' this subject. It Is admittedly a difficult matter to reapportion a state in such a manner as to stand the test of constitutionality in the courts.' A re-apportionment bill which would practically deprive any county of fair representation would be held unconstitutional. The same Is true of the legislative reapportionment. Under the new census Lake county, wh:ch now has one representative and one Joint representative, will be entitled to three representatives In the house. St. Joseph county will be entitled to three representatives Instead of the two representatives and one joint representative which it has now. Marion county also will gain a representative in tho house. : .. " Constitution Fixes Membership. The membership of the state senate Is fixed by the state constitution at 50 and that of the house at 100. These must be apportioned to the various counties In such manner as to make the representation as nearly equal as possible according to population. The party in power always seeks so to arrange the districts as to assure the election of a majority of the representatives of its own fait a. . Already the Democrats are gathering data and Information for use in the preparation of a reapportionment. All of this information will be placed in the hands of a committee whose imembers are familiar with the politl y&nd this committee will be expected to- ' 1 whip into shape a bill which will be satisfactory to the Democrats and which will stand the test of constitutionality: " 100 large gold fish just received at Price..!
