October 9, instead of on Sunday, as had been oreo planned. “It depends entirely on wind and weather what route we take,” said Dr. Hugo Eckener today. “Naturally I would like best to choose the north- ern route, which is the shortest one.

Unfortunately, there is usually bad weather along this route, so that we may have to pi a different course, which would most likely toward the south.” Dr. Eckener urged that the public should not worry if nothing should be heard from the Graf Zeppelin for many hours. He expects to send out his location to Friedrichshafen from time to time, but once the Gulf Stream has been reached wirelessing probably will be difficult. 12 MEN ESCAPE KENTUCKY JAIL Force Iron Door, Burrow Through Brick Wall, Slide Down Blanket Rope in recent political ‘MARRIES AGAIN Ee New York, Oct. 5.—(#)—Bei State Record Broken in Three-quarter Mile Run \ Two Men Injured in Yester- day’s Bucking and Steer- Riding Events Western Derby Is Saturday Feature of Bismarck Stam- pede and Exposition — The state record in the three- quarter mile horse running race was broken during the first race of the first annual Bismarck Stampede and Exposition at the Bismarck fuir grounds in one of the prettiest races ever run in the state, according to Mrs. C.
