TRAIL OF FIRE TO BE BLAZED BY AEROPLANE

I By a change of plane, Richmond will

have one of the most daring aviators

In the business to display weird Interpretations of art in the air, in the words of the exposition managers, to thrill.

dazzle, awe almost overwhelm-i-vlsit-

org and shatter the peace and quietude

of the city next week. He Is Louis Gertson. who wired e

position headquarters today that he had packed up his new military tractor yesterday afternoon after a series

of flights at the Salt Lake City expo Bitlon and had departed for the East.

He will report here Friday or Saturday instead of Beecher, the aviator slated sere after his exploits at the Indiana

state fair. Brings Trail of Flame. Wednesday night. October 18, will be a wild one for Richmond, the city may be assured by the exposition managers, they said. A streak of fire will dart from the darkness of an open field on the outskirts of Richmond, and trailing flame, smoke and redlight, will Bwoop down upon unsuspecting citizens otherwise engaged In a Joyous contemplation of entrancing circus acts, pageants and industrial exposition. This will be only Gertson, however, with a bag full of bombs which will be harmless and will not blow to fragments the buildings upon which they explode, nor will they be of the variety which means work for the Richmond fire department. His ammunition will ,be purchased from factories which sell .to celebrate Independence day, not to 6ubjugate rival countries of Europe. Does Daring Stunts. Gertson will fly every day. He will pick his field and assemble his machine as soon as he arrives. He will then make ready to make Captain Baldwin, the last noted flier here, who ascended in a dirigible baloon from Beallview, look like a cowblrd compared with a swallow. Wednesday doubtless will be the premier of days for notable happenings as the program for the centennial as it is being shaped indicates. It will also be the day when hundreds of business men from other cities will visit Richmond. In keeping with Gertson's aeroplane fireworks display at night, the Dayton "Skyrockets" will be visitors during the day. Almost 100 of them with their own band will come over In machalnes, the Greater Dayton assocla-; tion notified Secretary Haas of the

Commercial club today. Arrangements had already been made with Cincinnati, Hamilton. Muncie, Marion, India-

napolis. All points east, north, west and south will be represented. Citizens of College Corner, . Liberty. Connersvllle, Winchester, Eaton, Greenville and many other smaller cities and towns have been too impatient for news of theh centennial celebration to wait until it reaches them through regular sources, but hate written here, or have plied traveling men with questions. Because ofthe many other attractions Wednesday, the day nursery exhibit will be held Saturday, Instead, the day already designated for Children's Day. Mrs. A. W. Roach, president of the Domestic Science association, is In charge of arrangements. PARK SPRINGS AGAIN TROUBLE WORKS BOARD

The springs at Glen Miller park are proving to be a real problem to the city officials. This question was thoroughly discussed at the meeting of the mayor's cabinet last night. The state board of health no longer permits the use of the publlo drinking cup, so these cups have been banished from the Glen. Now people who want to drink the famous Glen spring water cannot do so if they have not brought cups with them. To remedy the situation sanitary fountains have been provided the various springs but with indifferent success. The spring in the east end of the park has the pressure for such fountains but the spring near the east Main street entrance does not have the required pressure and. it is feared, if this fountain is maintained It will eliminate the spring. The following committee has been appointed to investigate the park spring question: City Attorney Bond, Park Superintendent Ford. Board President Bavls, Build ing inspector Hodgln and Councilman Howells. The cabinet also decided to arrange for the appraisement and sale of all the horses of the lire department as coon as the several companies have been motorized. Reports from the various departments were received.

MAN, AGED 80, TO SEE FATHER PORTRAYED HERE

One of the most interested spectators at the centennial pageant next week will be Samuel Mendenhall, 80 years old, Winchester, whose father, Hiram Mendenhall, will be imperson

ated as presenting a petition to Henry

Clay for the freeing of the slaves in 1845. The story of the event as It will be

portrayed in the pageant is one of the most important in slavery history.

Clay Defeats Himself. Because Clay refused to grant the

petition which was presented him while in Richmond making the political speech, he was defeated in his race for President of the United States by James Polk.

Samuel Mendenhall is a son of the historic old Quaker who presented the petition. In preparation for attending the pageant he came yesterday on

a visit at the home of his grand-daughter, Mrs. Everett H. Thompson, near Webster. At the time his father presented the petition, Mr. Mendenhall was only 6 years old. He did not accompany his father to Richmond on the occasion but he remembers well how his father returned that night and told the 6tory. Admits Owning Slaves. He had presented the petition with several thousand signatures to Mr. Clay. The presidential candidate said that he saw no reason why he should free the slaves and remarked that he had fifty himself. The crowd that had gathered here to hear the candidate started to mob the petitioner but Mr. Clay interfered and saved Mr. Mendenhall's life. News of Mr. Clay's refusal to promise to grant the petition in case he were elected was soon spread over the North and when the election came he was defeated.

BRITISH STOP LINER

NEW YORK, Oct 10. The Scandinavian-American liner Frederick VIII which arrived today was taken into Kirkwall by a British warship and 1,000 bags of German mail removed. The British also removed a passenger named Harold Brest who claimed to be an American citizen and United States Consul to Porto Rico. Brest took an appeal to Ambassador Gerard

who was a passenger on the ship, but the diplomat said he could do nothing.

submarines ought to remain in port or take the consequences if they are sunk without warning by British and French warships. And with British and French warships searching for German submarines, and each side prepared to sink the other on sight there also isr additional danger that a submarine commander might mistake an American craft for an enemy and sink it without warning. It is thse complications that officials call to your attention and they point out that they are very real and of such a character that the slightest slip on the part of some naval commander might immediately involve this nation in the war. Must Take Position . Realizing this, officials say that the administration must maintain the position towards all of. the belligerents that it outlined when it protested against the Anglo-French naval blockade off the Atlantic coast. At that time. Secretary Lansing freely admitted that the British warships were well within their rights under international law. But he said: "The grounds for the objection of the government of the United States to the continued presence of belligerent warships cruising in close proximity to American ports are based, not upon the Illegality of such action, but upon the irritation which it naturally causes to a neutral country. The constant and menacing presence of cruisers on the high seas near the ports of a neutral country may be regarded, acordlng to the international courtesy as a just ground for offense, although it may be strictly legal." Take Riant Attitude.

And officials who know the opinions ' of the president and Secretary Lansing j say that this is their present attitude j and they look for a way being found ; to press a similar, although stronger, argument home to the belligerents in an effort to protect the Atlantic coast i line from conflicts that it fa ffareri in.

But they do not expect any volatlon of the pledges made by Germany that she will conduct a cruiser warfare under international law at this time. As already pointed out in these dispatches the sentiment throughout Germany Is for a resumption ..of submarine warfare against all "enemy vessels," and this action is considered certain eventually but Germany is expected to make announcement of such Intention well in advance and endeavor again to re-open the armed merchantman question.

To Improve Expression As Well As Complexion

TO CREATE CARDINALS.

LONDON, Oct. 10 Seven cardinals and a number of bishops are to be created by Pope Benedict XV at the next consistory, says a Rome wireless dispatch today.

The working force of the British

navy, afloat and ashore, includes more

than 1,000,000 men.

No face is really beautiful that lacks

expression. Do you realize that cori-

tlnual use of powders and creams tends to spoil pliancy of skin and elas

ticity of expression? Why not quit cosmetics and use something better, which won't clog the pores or make the skin dry, pasty or oily? Ordinary

mercolized wax acts quite differently

from any cosmetics. It wonderfully

Improves any complexion, giving it

lire and expression. By gradually,

harmlessly peeling off the thin veil of surface skin, it brings to view a pure, soft, spotless complexion, delicately beautiful and youthful. Every drug

gist has this wax; it Is seldom more than an ounce is needed. It is spread on nightly like cold cream and washed off mornings. In a week or two the transformation is complete. Wrinkles do not of course enhance the expression. Neither do the pasty things many use to eradicate them. A treatment free from all objection Is made by dissolving an ounce of powdred saxolite in a half pint of witch hazel; use as a wash lotion. This soon removes even the .most obstinate wrliy'iles.
