Grant Park Aviation Feld, Chicago. --960,000 spectators witnessed many daring feats by aviators in the second day of the international meet. A dashing, spirited race between three biplanes stirred thousands of spectators in the Grant Park aero­ drome to the highest enthusiasm, and mystery surrounding an aviator who for nearly two hours hung thousands of feet in the air over Lake Michigan held them until after dark. The race was declared the greatest ever witnessed over an aviation course. The weird picture in the sky--the lone speck of a machine rocking, floating and sometimes apparently without motion of any sort, then drew their attention. It bound them to the field until, guided by a huge bonfire, surrounded by torches of red fire, called him away from his then in­ visible perch and down toward earth again. The official records show that there were nearly twenty-two hours of In­ dividual flying crowded into the three and a half hour program the first day. That Is, the total of the hours In which the different machines were In the air was sufficient to give an average of six machines in the air all the time.

VETO BILL IS PASSED MMtOS PASS MEASURE OF 131 TO 114, Vs to Create New Peers Agalii Is by Governmen Final Adjournment. London.--The house of lords passed &e veto bill by a vote of 131 to 114. Thus the creation of new peers has been averted. The resolution to pay members of the house of commons $2,000 annually for their services was also carried by a vote of 266 to 169. After days and days of discussion, in which necessary business of the government has been hopelessly side­ tracked, Lord Morley came out with the plain statement that unless the bill as originally sent to the lords was passed the king bad signified his willingness to create enough new peers to prevent the Liberals from be­ ing hampered by a Tory majority in the house of lords. Morley read the statement slowly from a paper on which It was written and there was not a whisper in the house while he was speaking. The lords were up against a wall and, although few in the chamber at all relished the measure the majority of them voted for It rather than accept the alternative which has been held before them ever since their leader* declared they would veto the veto bill even as they had the budget, the cause of all their woes. Old friends of the government lined up with its foes in the debate pre­ ceding the taking of the vote, and Conservative peers, seeing the re­ sult of a continued opposition to the administration, took the lesser of the two evils presented them. The debate Immediately preceding the taking of the vote was short and marked by the bitter speeches of UUnionlst opponents. Lord Rosebery, who spoke for the first time since the veto bill was in­ troduced in the upper house, de­ nounced the government for having gone to "a young and Inexperienced king, not yet five months upon the thrdne, to ask for guarantees to pass a bill tbat had not even passed its first reading in the house of com­ mons."

OF WIDE INQUIRY IN PROSPECT Representative Littleton Announces Resolutions Will Be Introduced for Thorough Investigation of In­ dustrial Situation. Washington.--Responsibility for the run on the Trust Company of America during the panic of 1907 was placed upon George W. Perkins and associ­ ates by Oakley Thorne. it wps In consequence of tbe run on the Trust Company of America that the steel trust absorbed Tennessee Coal and Iron. The allegation is that the latter movement was necessary to save the trust company from going to the wall. According to Mr. Thorne, who testi­ fied at the hearing of the Stanley steel investigating committee, it was through Mr. Perkins that a statement was given to a newspaper that the Trust Company of America was a "sore spot" in the panic situation, but that aid would be given it. Less than two hours before this statement is alleged to have been made, Mr. Thorne swore he had told Mr. Perkins that the trust company was in good shape. The publication, Mr. Thorne said, started a run on his concern, which had to borrow $27,- 500,000 to save itself. A council of all the greet manufac­ turers and financiers of the nation will be called into consultation with congress to find a way out of the trust problem, according to an announce­ ment by Representative Littleton of New York before the Inquiry. Mr. Littleton stated that a resolu­ tion would soon be introduced in con­ gress providing for a thorough investi­ gation of Industrial affairs in tbe United States. His news followed a suggestion from George W. Perkins, director of the steel trust, that a government com­ mission which would focus the lime­ light of publicity on the business af­ fairs of great corporations would do much to eradicate present-day evils of trusts and preserve their virtues. "I am advised," said Mr. Littleton, "that there Is to be a thorough inquiry Into all the commercial ills of the na­ tion, and tbat a conference will be called to determine the problem of how to deal with the Industrial situation in America."

Agreement Placing Raw Material at 29 Cents--Almost Even Backdown for Each Side. Washington. -- The deadlock be­ tween the house and senate was broken and the wool bill probably will be ^passed finally by both branches of congress. The wool bill, as agreed upon, waa so amended as to require that the proposed law shall take effect October 1 instead of January 1, as provided in the senate and house measures. The conferees hope to have the report adopted in both houses and the bill quickly started on its course to the White House, where the president Is expected to veto It The free list bill was under consid­ eration for about fifteen minutes, but the conflict between the representa­ tives of the two bouses was so pro­ nounced that It became necessary to postpone action. After fixing 29 per cent, ad valorem as the duty on raw wool and changing the wool classification so as to con­ form to the language of the house bill, the agreement on other features be­ came a matter of detail. The change of classification has the effect of fixing a flat duty on all wools, and while it reduces the rates on OP- dinary wools from 36 per cent., as pro­ vided in the senate bill, and Increases those of the house bill f(pm 20 per cent., it also Increases the rates on carpet wools from 10 per cent., as pro­ vided in the senate bill, to the 26 per cent, fixed by the conferees. In most respects the duties on the manufactures of wool Were increased over the rates of the house bill and reduced below those of the senate bill, so as to make them correspond with the raw wool rate; but in some In­ stances they were made higher than those of either measure. OIL TRUST MUST STAND TRIAL Indictment of 143 Counts for Rebates Held Good by United States Court. Buffalo, N. Y.--Judge John R. Hazel in United States district court held that the Standard Oil company must stand trial at the next regular term on an Indictment of 14S counts, charging acceptance of rebates from tbe Penn­ sylvania Railroad company and the New York Central Railroad company on shipments of petroleum from Olean, N. Y., to Burlington, Vt., in violation of the Elklns law. One of the company's chief points of defense urged in its motion to "dis­ miss was that the alleged offenses had all been disposed of in previous trials and that the company could not twice be placed in jeopardy for the same alleged offense. The government, through John Lord O'Brien, United States attorney, contended that each offense alleged in the indictment was a separate one Judfee Hazel sustained the govern­ ment's contention.

Atwood, the Boston avi­ ator, flew into Chicago from St. Louis in his biplane. Having arrived, he circled aviation field on the lake front before alighting^ to the cheers of thousands. He completed the aeroplane dash across the prairies of Illinois in five hours and thirty-four minutes of fly­ ing time, the distance traveled be­ tween vdawn and nightfall being about 800 miles. The average speed,.of the journey was fifty-six miles an hour. "Atwood, Atwood," a thousand shouted in concert with such a vol­ ume cf sound that the flying men over the field heard and shifted their air machines so they could get bet­ ter views of the coming aviator. It was 6:10 when Atwood was first seen. In five minutes more the spinning propellers could be distinguished as the machine rushed toward the goal. "Glad to be here," Atwood said, "and I had a fine trip. Not a mishap of any kind* The machine came through without even a tap of a monkey wrench. Stopped once for gasoline and cylinder oil at Pontiac, and at Springfield for dinner. It was a great day for flying. "I started from St. Louis at 8:30 this' morning, and I've flown more than 300 miles, for I circled about over St. Louis for a- while before starting on the trip. I followed the river to Alton, an<fr then located and kept over the Chicago & Alton's right of way. Everything went beau­ tifully--my motor worked like a charm, the wind was fine, and I felt bully. I flew at an altitude of about 500 feet. 'There is some enthusiasm In Illi­ nois over aeroplanes. At every cross­ roads there were vast crowds, and In every town there seemed to be thousands waiting to see me pass. "I was to have landed In the state fair grounds at Springfield, but when I got a look at the landing place I didn't want to take a chance. It looked too small and I thought I wouldn't risk an accident to my ma­ chine. So I dropped outside of town. Atwood said he would follow the tracks of the Lake Shore railroad on his eastern flight from Chicago. PASS WOOL BILL REPORT House Adopts Conference Agreement on Revision Measure--Taft Veto Near at Hand. Washington.--The tariff revisionists made considerable progress In con­ gress. The house, by a vote of 206 ot 90, without a Democrat breaking the party alignment, adopted the con­ ference report on the wool tariff re­ vision bill and rushed it over to the senate, where it was hung up on the calendar for passage. For this measure, which imposes a flat and ad valorem duty of 29 per cent, on all raw wools, with corre­ sponding reduced rates on woolen manufactures, the other two tariff measures will be sidetracked and wool will be given right of way to the White House for the expected veto. On the veto depends th® further program of the house Democrats and the senate Democrats and progressive Republicans, including the formula­ tion of plans for a speedy adjourn­ ment.

These tape worms are huge internal parasites, which locate in the upper bowel and consume a large per­ centage of the nutriment in undigested tooa. They sometimes grow to a length of forty to sixty feet. One may have a tape worm for years tnd never know the caU8e of hW or her ill health.

"Where on earth do those flies come from?" is a frequent and despairing question. They may come down the chimneys, if the fireplaces have tipping dampers. These should be tightly closed in fly- time. An appreciable falling oft in their number will be the result. If the chimneys have not the tip­ ping damper, a screen such as is used for a window can be fitted into the fireplace; or, easier still, a bundle of paper may be stuffed up the chimney. Either method is successful, and no trouble is too great to get rid of these summer pests. AT THE PAR80NAGE.
