SOAP MAN’S SON INJURED Dr. Gamble Expected to Dic. Third Passenger Only Slightly Hurt as Plane Hits Mud. B the Associated Presh, FRAMINGHAM, Mass., July 24— Zenos R. Miller of Boston, pilot of an atrplane that crashed in & quagmire near the' Framingham flying field Sat- urday, was pinned under the wreck- age and died before he could be re- leased. Dr. Clarence Gamble of Pasa- dena, Calif, one of the two passen- gers, was probably fatally injured. The other, Ralph K. Miller, a brother of the pilot, escaped with bainful cuts and bruises. The three men arrived here last night from New York and were to have started today on a transconti- nental flight to California. This after- noon they flew over Boston and were returning to the fleld preparatory to setting out on the first leg of their journey .when the plane fell into a spin and crashed in a marsh near Lar- ned's pond. about two hundred yards from the flield. The machine landed upside down. Buried In Mud The pilot was pinned in the mud by the heavy engine, only his head show- ing. His skull was fractured and his neck broken, but he lived about twen- ty minutes.” His body was not re- covered from swamp mud until two hours after the accident. Ralph Miller and Dr. Gamble were thrown to one side as the plane fell, and rescuers found the former on one of the wings, with Gamble lying un- derneath it. Dr. Gamble was badly hattered, and at the Framingham. Hospital it was said that he would probably die. His left leg. nose and clavicle” were fractured and he was suffering from concussion of the brain and internal injurles. Zenos Miller, who was twenty-four vears old, served during the war in the 27th Pursuit Squadron, United States air forces. In August, 1918, he was taken prisoner when his plane fell behind the German lines, and he remained in a prison camp until the armistice. Among the first of the res- cuers to reach the fallen plane today was Capt. Bury Leyson, an aviator at the local field, who was a fellow prisoner in Germany with Miller. The Miller brothers had been students in the Harvard Medical School. Were to Meet Parents. Dr. Gamble, who is the son of James Norris Gamble. a nationally known ap manufacturer of Pasadena, Calif. was graduated at Princeton in the class of 1914 and at Harvard Med- ieal School in 1920. During the war, he was a member of the medical list- ed reserve. He bought the plane which crashed today from the Italian government June I, with the cross- country trip in view. He was re- cently appointed to teach in the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania, beginning this fall The parents of the Miller boys are now on their way to California for the summer, and the sons were to meet them in the west.

BERLIN.—The scientific editor of the Morgen Post says: “Phe racent opening of the new wireless central in Berlin is of great fmportance for the development of world intercourse. All the wireless lines of the world run together here. and from here news will be sent ali | over the world. £ “By means of the European wire- less net of the German telegraph ad- ministration all wireless messages coming from other European coun- tries are received there and dis- patched further to transoceanic sta- tions. All telegrams coming from overseas destined for Europe and a part of Asia are also received there. The machines and contrivances are s0 arranged that wireless intercourse is possible by all weather conditions. | As it is oniy possible to telegraph about twenty words a minute by hand, | which is much too slow for the huge demands of modern intercourse, the telegrams are punched into strips of aper with combinations of holes. hese paper slips are then passed | through the telegraph apparatus at the greatest speed. By this mean: the new central has established a world record, being able to telegraph at the rate of 130 words in a mihute. | There is a special European room | and an American room, of which the | former is for European messages and | the latter for American. “The recelving and dispatching telegraphists for each station sit op- | posite each other. If a word is not quite clear and it is necessary to make inquiries, the receiving tdleg- raphist s.ops ' working while th dispatching telegraphist immediately makes the necessary Inquiries by tel- egraph. While the paper strips are passing through the sending appa- ratus the operator compares the words with the original telegram to avoid any possible mistake. A wonderful clock Is to be seen in the American room, whiéh shows the time differ- ences between all the stations of the world. and on which the day hours are divided from the night hours by a moving shadow over the face of the, clock, corresponding to the move- ments of the sun. “A proof of how splendidly the new central works is that at the above tes and Francie Mitchner. mentioned world record of 130 a minute, America answered. ‘Under- stand endid] No mistake!

STILLWATER, Minn., July 24.— Four of the surviving five members of the “Last Man's Club" held their annual banquet in the historic Sawyer House here. Organized in 1884 and originally comprised -of thirty-four members of the 1lst Minnesota Infantry, Company B, fa- mous in civil war days, the club members agreed to meet annually for a banquet and get-together on the unniversary of the battle of Bull un, 3 In 1386 a bottla of wine was pre- sented to the club by one of its members and it was agreed that this bottle should grace the banquet ta- ble each year until only one membe survived “and that this “last man" should drink it as a toast to the de- parted members. The bottle of wine is kept in a vault In a bank, and today it was taken to and from the banguet room under a heavy escort. It reclines in a cherry wood case and It held the honor position in the center of the table. In accordance with the custom, covers were laid today for the origi- ngl thirty-four members, and on the plates of those who have died nose- gays were placed, similar to those worn by the surviving members. Those who attended the banguet were: Adam Marty, St. Paul; John S. Goff, Minneapolis; Charles Lock- wood, ‘Chamberlain,” S. D.; Peter Hall,' Atwater, Minn. Emil Graff of St. Cloud. Fla., eighty-three vears old, could not make the'long jour- ney to Stillwater. WEIGH CONFESSION OF WOMAN VICTIM g IN MURDER THREAT (Continued from F'irst Page.) were brought into the case, that per- aps Mrs. Brooke was the objective of a vendetta intent on wreaking vengeance on her in behalf of a jeal- ous wife. This theory did not seem unreasonable when Cavey himself testified that his wife was an Italian, that she was jealous of his attentions to Mrs. Brooke, and that Mrs. Cavey's sister, Rosie Bradio, somewhat fitted the description of the heavily built brunette whom Mrs. Brooke had ac- cused of blinding her with acid thrown from a cup. The implication of Mrs. Cavey and Miss Bradio by Cavey's testimony, un- der oath, resulted in the swearing out of warrants against them, charging them with assault with intent to Kill. Both women were released Saturday night on bail aggregating $3,000 and told to appear at the formal trial. set for August 11 before Judge Joyce in Mount Rainier. Cavey, who swore to the warrant against Waiter, and who was himself arrested and held on $2,500 bond for investigation, was re- leased late Saturday night from the Marlboro jail. He was paroled in custody of his attorney and will be forced to appear at the trial as a state witness. Walter was released on $1.000 bond the morning following his arrest. A discrepancy in the story told Judge Joyce by Mrs. Brooke and the statements made b alter at a pre- liminary hearing lact week will ne- cessitate further questioning of Wal- ter and Mrs. Brooke. Mrs. Brooke in her confession declares that Walter came to her home in Mount Ralinier on two different occasions, one time bearing a message from Mrs. Cavey concerning her displeasure over her husband's " affair with Mrs. Brooke. | and another time coming for a ring | hich Cavey had given Mrs. Brooke. Walter, however denied ever having been in Mount Rainler .or having seen Mrs. Brooke. with the exception of one day In Baltimore when she alked past the front porch of his home and stared at him. It was learned today thgt the seven-year-old boy who Mrs. Brooke adopted shortly after its birth has been taken from the Brooke home and is being cared for under super- vision of the authorities of the in- stitution from which he was obtaired as an infant.

He complained of the character of the training at vreum.| and the apathetic attitude of the gov- ernment, and said that at the present time, when there were nearly 30,000 men still waiting to be put into training _without any prospect of getting it, the government was clos- ing existing factories. i While there were 50 many men on the waiting lists, the factories should be kept dpen, and men put into training.
