IV CEASE FLYING Father of Milwaukee Heiress Makes Her Dismiss Her Aerial Tutor. (National Newa Kervlra) Chicago, May 23. Miss Eugenie Ficbette, a Milwaukee heiress, who left her home a month ago to study a viatlon In Chicago, will hare to ceaae indulging In aerial Juggling if parental commands are to be recognized. The young woman's father, Anton Flchette yesterday had an injunction issued against M. K. Grabbe. head of the Chicago school of aviation, forbidding him to give further Instructiona in the art of flying to his daughter. More than a month ago Miss Flchette left her home in Milwaukee, astenslbly for a vacation. Her father recently discovered that she was attending the school of aviation here and was taking dangerous chances of her life In short flights at school. He immediately took steps to prevent her , from further exposing herself to the fickle eccentricities of- the air. Student In Aviation School. Miss Flchette became interested In aviation when Brooklns made his exhibition flights in Chicago last fall. 8b decided then that she wanted to explore the regions above and her chance for the adventurous undertaking came when her grandfather, Francols Fichette, willed her a considerable ' amount of money. Early thla spring she purchased a ,1911 Curtis aeroplane and enrolled as a student at the Chicago school of avl- , atlon. Mr. Grable always accompanied her in the flights, although she manipulated the mechanism at times. IFichette was pronounced a very adept atudent of the art. She christened 'her aeroplane "Lady Grasshopper," bo.cause, as ahe explains, "they all looked like so many huge grasshoppers flitKing about when I witnessed my first aviation meet." ' , Aerial Tutor Quits Job. "t am sorry my father has taken uch a dislike to my new venture," 'aid Miss Flchette yesterday. "I am Jaure that In time I could become a successful air woman. I am not afraid of the air and I love to be away up above the earth. The thrilling sensation that races through every fiber of one's 'body when one is scurrying through the air particularly appeals to me and I am sorry that I must deny myself this plessure even before I had taken my first flight alone." Mr. Grable was out of the city yesterday, but it wa said at his residence that he would no longer act aa aerial tutor to Miss Fichette.

Military Spy Has Spectacular Bat Most Hazardous Army Job
Washington, May 23. Once in a while an army of navy officer is arrested for spying or attempting to obtain military aecrets from a foreign government. Practically every government. Including the United States, has a law which makes this a crime. Usually there Is more or less secrecy about the officer's arrest and trial. His government repudiates his activity, and If he Is sentenced to a term of imprisonment he receives no support or aid from his government. Within the last few months two British officers. Captain Brandon and Captain Trench, have been arrested, tried and imprisoned in Germany for gathering military Information in that country which might be valuable to Great Britian in case of hostilities. A German officer, Lieutenant Helm, was arrested in England for sketching and photographing British fortifications. In the Philippines two Japanese officers were arreste while attempting to bribe a private to furnish them with photographs of the fortifications of Corregidor, Manilla bay. These Incidents are only indications of a general system of secret military espionage which is in progress in all parts of the world. Although they will not officially admit it, practically "every government has a secret service of army and navy officers whose only duty is to travel In foreign countries to gather Information which might be useful in time of war. Because of the shortage of officers the United States has only engaged in this practice in time of active hostilities. Military espionage is, of course, a delicate subject, and it would be a gross violation of international propriety for any government to admit that it had secret agents spying on its neighbors. However, it is a well known fact that this system exists. Not long ago officers of the war de partment had an experience which Is still a mystery. One of the most important secrets of the army in recent years has been the details of the fortifications of the island of Corregidor, which is situated at the mouth of Ma nila bay. A British subject in the city of Calcutta found on the streets of that city a small packet of blueprints containing information of the defenses of Corregidor. Recognizing the character of the documents, he turned them over to the American consul-general there, who In turn forwarded them to the state department at Washington. Finally they found their way to the war department, where the blueprints were critically examined.. All Importan Details The officers of the department were amazed when they found that the blue prints contained all the important details of the defenses of Corregidor. They were duplicates of the original plans, the whereabouts of which have never been ascertained. They are on a small scale, evidently made with the Idea of carrying them in a pocket and were very finely and accurately drawn. On some of the blue prints were tab ulations giving the nights of the guns above the sea level, the location of the searchlights, fire control stations and other highly confidential information-. The blueprints were not copied from any drawings or charts prepared by the United States, but were evidently m-de from careful and painstaking research from the official and confidential records of the government. The maker of the blue prints was never Identified. Officers of the war department are confident that the blue prints were based upon Information which had been abstracted and delib erately sold to a foreign government. But the most careful and comprehensive investigation which was made by the department failed to disclose the Identity of the supposed traitor. Information for Japanese About a year ago two Japanese of ficers attempted to obtain photographs of the Corregidor fortifications by bribing an enlisted man of the American army. To the private, who was in the engineer corps, was offered $25,000 if he would agree to do this and as he was the official photographer of the corps, no suspicion was aroused when he made the photographs. He revealed his knowledge to the military autohritles in Manila, however, who instructed him to proceed with the deal. A trap was laid and the two Japanese officers were captured when they were about to receive the photographs from the private. There was no law under which they could be pros ecuted and they were released from custody. Since then, however, congres has passed a law covering such cases. Early in 1908 the police department of New York city reported to the war department that maps and military in formation of a confidential character had been found In a trunk belonging to an American, who, t he police believed. had been employed by a foreign government. His arrest had been had in connection with another offense and the discovery of these papers was accidental. In 190? an American ambassador at a foreign capital reported to the state department that an aivmy officer of the country to which he was accredited had been detailed to visit the Ameri can countries secretly to ascertain the strength of their forces. His mission was thwarted,, however, by the information furnished by the ambassador. Always Preparing for War. Tne military autnonties or every first class power are-constantly preparing for war. Naturally they are anxious to know what their neighbors are accomplishing In military science Here develops the function of the modern military spy. Fiction writers clothe the spy with a Tell of mystery and a supernatural cleverness which enables him to get out of all dangerous pitfalls Into which he falls. But the real flesh and blood spy Is a different person. In these days of modern and scientific warfare the spy has become a technical expert who must be thor oughly versed in every branch of his
art. He must be tactful and above all close mouthed. The procedure of sending out a spy is something Nke this: If the German government wishes information which it can not get in the regular channels of information some officer is sent for. He is summoned to the war office to receive his Instructions. In the case of confidential war abroad he receives oral orders so that he will not have any documentary evidence on his person to disclose nis identity in case he gets into trouble. Having received his instructions he starts out, sometimes so secretly that even his family do not know where he is going. Usually he speaks the language of the country to which he is bound. His real identity for the time being is forgotten, and he travels under an assumed name. If necessary he uses a disguise to cover his movements. If he is a good spy he returns with the desired information and no questions in regard to the methods that he employed are asked. If he is captured while engaged in his work he is puniehed for attempting to obtain the military secrets of a foreign ogvernment and his own country lets him severely alone.

VIEWS Oil HELL ARE GIVEN BYPREACHER
Declares Belief in Future Punishment or Reward Is Almost Universal. Chicago, May 23. "Hell and Heaven in the Light of Bible Common Sense" was the subject of a sermon by Rev. Dr. E. E. McKay at the Garfield Boulevard Methodist Episcopal church. His text was from Luke xvi 13. 'And In hell he lifted up his eyes being" in torments and seeth Abraham afar off and Lazarus in his bosom." "The parable of the rich man and Lazarus," Dr. McKay said. "Is a revealed picture of both sides of the grave, here and hereafter, hell and heaven. Lazarus in the bosom of Abraham is the intermediate state into which Enoch and Elijah were transplanted. The place Lazarus went to is the realm that Paul was caught up into when he saw sights and heard voices that had never appealed to his senses before but the parable teaches that the rich man died and went to another place. "The common sense teaching of the Bible is that hell is not a place of God's creation. In the six days work of creation as given in Genesis no reference is made to It. When did hell begin? I answer as soon as sin began. Marlowe in his Faustus 6ays. 'Hell hath no limits, but where we are is hell or heaven, and where hell or heaven is there we must be.' "Every man carries within his bosom the germ of his heaven or hell. Boria, Alva and Nero were once prattling infants in their happy mother's arms; the infinite mercy of God suppressed the fires of hatred until their will to persecute the innocent set ablaze the hellisa instincts of their natures. t "Hell isn't a penitentiary with a board of pardons where the massing of political influence and the telling of a few pathetic stories touches the heart of the commissioners and the presiding officer and you are paroled or set free. "Hell isn't a preparatory school where the unfortunate are given anoth er chance and fitted for the purer joys of heaven. For longevity never cures sin. All the pictures of Father Time represent him with a scythe to cut, not with a medicine case to heal. If a person can't be reformed in this world of Bibles and churches and cleansed by the blood of Christ, what right has he to expect that fire will do there what the blood has failed to do here. Does starting in another world dwith the propensity of a devil carry with it more assurance than starting this life with the innocence of the babe? "Hell is the universal belief of the world today, and had It not been for the harshness of Galvanism, unitarian ism and universalsm, would have been in the line of orthodoxy on this dogma today. "A person to avoid hell must believe In Christ. The saved man is the per son who in the deep affection of his heart accepts the Savior as tbe only name given under heaven that can save the uttermost, and the person that can rejects him is as certain of perdition as the rich man described in the parable. Any other gospel than this is withering to all earnestness in soul saving, and the means of eternal catastrophe to many." SUGAR TRUST (National News Service) Washington, May 23. The sugar trust won a victory worth a half million dollars yearly and the interstate commerce commission today sustained an unexpected defeat when the new court of commerce today issued an injunction to restrain the commission from interfering with a special privilege, tantamount to rebates . the sugar trust has long enjoyed.
