Here are rules laid down for a husband by Judge Bode in court at Cincinnati: ! You must not swear at your wife. Yceu must not hit her. You must not abuse her by voice. You must give her a full share of your wages for the support of the tamily. You must not give her all your money on Saturday night and then get it back during the week. You must not doubt the word of your wife when she says she has no You must not take money from her foreibly. The judge’s rules are so good that w2 have a sneaking suspicion that he is a bachelor. 77 AVIATORS KILLED IN 1911, The progress in the science of avi- ation during the year now drawing to a close has been costly in human life. Beginning with the death of Lieut. Thomas E. Selfridge, the first person killed in an aeroplane, in 1908, the list of fatalities has rapid- v increased, especially in the pres- ent year, whén the deaths more than coubled the combined number for the three preceding years. In 1908 one man lost his life, in 1909 four, in 1910 thirty-two, and to date for the present year seventy-seven persons have been killed. In 1911, as France has contributed by far the greatest number of victims, her list totaling 25, including one woman, Mme. Deniz Moore, who fell at Etampos on July 21st last. in preceding years, German airmen. who lost their lives this year number 14, Englsh 7, Russian 4, Italian, Austrian and Japanese 2 each. Servia, Spain, Bel- gium, Brazil, Perua and Cuba con- tributed one each to the death roll of the year. Whereas in the earlier days of the science of aviation only the most fit- ted, mtnally and physically, dared flights, nowadays great numbers of amateurs do so. As & consequence the deaths for the present year in- cluded a number of aviation pupils. passenger were killed, also were com- mon, while on Juné 18 last three Frenchmen, Capt. Princetau, T. Le Mattin, and M. Landron, were burned to déath in midair as a result of the explosion of the aeroplane motor. ‘While aviation has been carried on almost as extensively in Canada as elsewhere it is interesting to note that no fatality was recorded in that country during the present year. In striking contrast is the record of the United States (including Porto Rico), in which a total of 15 aviators have met death in 1911. tims for the year is as follows: April 25—William G. Purvis, died at Baton Rouge, La., as result of fall on March 5. May 10—Lieut: George E. M. Kel- ly, U. S. A, killed by fall at San Antonio, Texas. May 17—A. V. Hardle, an amateur, killed by fall at Los Angeles. 1 July 13—P. A. Kreamer, killed by fall in biplane at Chicago. Aug. 15—William R. Badger, crushed to death by his machine at Chicago. Aug. 15—St. Croix Johnstone, fell into Lake Michigan from height of 1,000 feet at Chicago aviation meet. Sept. 1—7J. J. Frisbie, killed by fall at Norton, Kas.; pled machine went up in a crip- because spectators called him a faker. Sept. 19—John W. Rosenbaum, killed while making a trial flight at De Witt, Iowa. Sept. 22—Frank W. Miller, burned to death in midair at Troy, Ohio, as result of explosion of gasoline tank. Sept. 22—*“Dare Devil” Castellane, killed by fall from height of three- quarters of a mile at Mansfield, Pa. Sept. 25—Dr. J. C. Clarke, an am- ateur, killed by fall at the interna- tional aviation meet on Long Island Oct. 2—Cromwell Dixon, killed by 100-foot fall at Spokane, atter having made successful flight across the Rocky Mountains. Oct. 19—Eugene B. Ely, one of the foremost of American aviators, killed by 50-foot fall at Macon, Ga. Nov. 1—Prof. John Montgomery, noted as the inventor of an aeroplane glider killed by fall near Edanvale, Cal. Dec. 3—Tod Schriver, well known American aviator, killed in an ex- hibition flight at Ponce, Porto Rico. More than twice as many Ameri- can aviators were killed this year than in the three preceding years. Up to January 1, 1911, the American victims numbered only six. They were Lieut. Selfridge, killed at Fort Myer, Va., Sept. 17, 1908; Eugene Speyer, a 17-year-old boy, killed at | San Francisco, June 17, 1910; Ralph Johnstone, one of the most daring of aviators, killed at Denver, Nov. 17, 1910; Cecil Grace, of New York, lost while attempting a flight across the English channel, Dec. 22, 1910; John| B. Moisant, killed at New Orleans, Dec. 31, 1910, and Arch Hoxey, the famous Wright aviator, who was killed at Los Angeles on the same day that his friend Moisant met death near New Orleans.
