The Musketeers are Squadron Leader C. McEwan, M.C.,, Flight Lieut. David A, Harding, famous rugby player, Pilot Officer BE. Mc- Nab, and Pilot Officer 1. A. Mc- Gowan, all four being stationed at Camp Borden, and flying the Cand- dian army's Siskin pursuit planes. At various exhibitions, both here! and in the United States, the Mus- keteers have thrilled thousands with their antics. At Cleveland, Ohio, recently, they stole the thun- der from many perhaps more fam- ous flyers who had perfomed there, and their performance was regard- ed as one of the most remarkable ever seen in the United States. Camp Borden features individual stunting as the finishing part of a novice flyer's education. It is a means of obtaining perfection in the contfol of an aeroplane, and while formation flying "is also taught and practiced the individual " ° " A Miracle!

Research Fel Tb wii Every bottle guaranteed. practice of. putting an aeroplane through its paces is more strongly endorsed. One of the Musketeers' favorite stunts' is 'a very spectacular one. The planes, starting in formation at around 3,000 feet, suddenly nose down. At terrific speed, with mo- tors wide. open, they spread out, fanshaped, and suddenly zoom up. At the peak of the climb, with the motors nearly stopped, the planes gradually fall over backwards, and fly for some distance upside down. To the old question often asked by the non-flyer. "What happens when the engine stops?' the Mus- keteers have a ready answer, It is "Nothing." They are specialists in landing with the motors cut out en- tirely, or '"dead-stick." They keep the plane on a gliding angle which brings it safely to earth, even though the motor has been stopped for some time. The secret, the four say, lies in having sufficient alti- tude to make a long glide possible. Before each exhibition, the fly- ers discuss the day's plans, Just when and where to turn, how high to go, where to meet and all the thousand, and one other little de- tails _ incident to events of this kind.. are threshed over. Then, when the time comes, four non- chalant young men who may have been sitting casually beneath the wings of their speedy Siskins, aa- just goggles and helmets, strap on parachutes, and climb into their planes. It all looks so easy at the start, and it isn't until the four silvery little planes are twisting and ca- vorting in the "sky that it becomes realized that behind the seeming carelessness lies hourg and hours of training. Technically, the performances given by the Musketeers are mar- vels of accurate and careful flying.

Mr, Daly, it was stated, was ar- rested by a French officer, accom- panied by 20 armed and uniformed natives, who, it is alleged, flung themselves on Daly, trussed him up with a rope, binding his hands be- hind his back. My. D:ly alleges that he was then made to march for three days in the tropical heat without food or water from early morning until nightfall when he was tied to a pole, He 'was imprisoned for more than a month before being tried He was found guilty of possessing an excess of ammunition as well as an unregistered rifle, and fined £20. All his possessions were con- fiscated, including £80 in French and Epglish money, a large quan- tity of ivory, and a film of an Oka- pi herd, which Mr, Daly had taken in the Belgian Congo, . Mr. Daly. asserts that documents proving hig innocence are now with the British consul; CHIEF AND SHAKES "CALLED FOR TEA Lady, Steele in Recent Inter- view Told of Early Mar- ried Years in the West Montreal, Que., Sept. 12.--(By The Canadian Press)--Memories ranging from incidents of life around the barracks of the North- west Mounted Police at McLeod, Alberta, to the aftermath of the South African War when she was in Pretoria, with her husband, Brig-Gen. Sir Samuel Steele of Mounted Police fame and who commanded the Strathcona Horse in South Africa, were recalled by Lady Steele in an interview here. Lady Steele was married to the then Major Steele in 1890, having met him while on a visit to an aunt al MacLeod, Mrs, MacDonnell, wife of Inspector A. R. MacDonfiell of the Mounted Police who persuaded Sitting Bull to across the border and stay there by offering to ration him with bullets. Indian chiefs 'dropping in" for a cup of tea at the back door were frequent occurrences, Lary Steele recalled. She told of Calf Shirt, a frolicsome Indian with a penchant for carrying around rat- tlesnakes inside his shirt, who used to call on Mrs. MacDonnell for the occasional cup of tea. One day, on answering his knock at the door, Mrs. MacDonnell was met by the fearsome spectacle of Call betake himself |. Shirt's pet, several rattles, sit- ting up around their owner, just by way of a little joke. "Calf Shirf," she.said severely, "you've got to put' your . masty 'shakés away or ypu'll get,no tea!' MacLeod: was notable for high | winds that blew for days on end, ludicrous spectacle' of the barracks 'square with chickens digging them- selves in and holding on for dear life, sometimes for as-long as three days, to keep themselves froin oe- ing swept away. An unwary passer by was quite likely to have a terri- fied fowl blown into his face. Many celebrated Indian chiefs 'were among those who had a par- tality for tea, among them Red Crow, chief of the Black Feet. He 'with two others, was brought te Montreal for a visit after the Re- bellion, in which - they had aided 'the white men, by. the celebrated missionary Father Lacdmbe, * wu whom a memorial was recently er- ected at St. Albert, near 'Edmon- ton. MacLeod was the largest Mount- ed Police station, set. among In- dian reserves and close to the boun- dary for its protection. The "Mounties" had to be In a constant state of readiness to turn out ata moment's notice, So high was thelr state of organization that an entife division could move wjtfiin half an hour of a summons, ready to he away on duty for a month or more. An incident mentioned by Lady Steele concerned a drive of eighty miles undertaken by some of the force to fetch a physician, her own brother, Dr. Harwood, to attend one of her small, daughters who was taken ill, There were: many jolly times in the life of the:Mounted Police. The men had a.quadrille club, apd. dan- ces were attended by officers and their wives and the families of ranchers who would make as much as a day's journey for festivities at MacLeod. Among the local people wag the original of "The Virginian" in Owen Wistér's novel of that name. An event described in the book, the mixing of the babies, ac- tually happened in MacLeod, Lady 'Steele said, Concerts mustered no- 'table talent; and among those wno 'attended them were Father La- combe, Sir Frederiik Haultain, Dr. (later 'Senatag) de Veber and Judge Charles Wood. , Western hospitality being re- nowned, there were - vccasionaiy guests who stretched it to the limit Lady Steele -laughingly recaliea, There was one man who stayed for two months, until his host was oh- liged to ask him to leave as he was setting out on an inspection tour and it was against rules for a stranger to stay in the bnrracks. There was another, who was given shelter on a night of blizzard, and this one stayed six months, "al- though the storm quieted down in rather less time. Wild west shows were the real thing then, with thrilling exhibi- tions of trick riding by the cowhoysg and Indians. Many events in her husband's career that are recorded in the his- tory of the 'force' were recalled by Lady Steele. His work In South Africa an dthe tributes of the Boers former enemies won over to friend- ship, his organizing of the Soucn African constabulary under Lord Baden-Powell ,are also matters in the history of another British Do- |} minion. Lady Steele is a charter member of the Tmperlal Order Daughters of the Empire. Before her marriage, she was Miss Marie Elizabeth Har- wood, daughter of Robert W. Har- wood, co-seigneur of Vaudreuil, where she was born. Her family, the De Lotbiniere Harwoods, trace their descent fo Alain Chartier de Lotbiniere, French poet, who ne- gotiated the marriage of Margaret of Scotland with the dauphin, later Louis XI.
