e — MILITIA AIRWEN'S * LANDINGS MARRED Rain and Low Visibility Cause | Minor Accidents Near Martinsburg. | Special Dispatch to The Star. | MARTINSBURG, W. Va, Angust 16—Rain and low visibility, with re- | sultant accidents in thelr landings. | marked the arrival here over the| week end of the 29th Di Air| Corps, Maryland Nation; n.m(,é which will camp for two eeks at Shepherd Field, four miles south of the city. The planes were delaved | by the heavy weather in their take- | off from Logan Field, Baltimore, while a crowd of 5000 waited pa- tiently at the local field to see the planes, One group became confused in di- rections and had to land at Rock- d., under direction of Lieut. nvder. His plane’s gas tank went dry and not heing equipped with emergency supplies, he had to land. The other planes in this flight, | piloted by Lieuts. James White-| scarver and Eric von Shilling, Offi- cers’ Reserve Corps, e to Martinsburg, but were a on the field hecanse of unfamiliarity with terrain. Lieut. von Shilling | landed east of the city in a field. | his gas also running out, and he overestimated the distance, his plane running into a fence which, broke the plane’s propeller and damaged | one wing. The flver himself was not injured. Lieut. Whitescarver was guided into the field by Capt. 5 Masson, who went up to give him direction. Lieut. Whitescarver's gas supply went out as his plane’s wheels touched the feld. Lieut. Snyder, re- suming his flight after the forced landing at Rockville, came on {0 Martinsbure, but missed the field and | was forced down at Arden Heights, east of the city. In addition to the flight troubles two of the men have heen hos- pitalized since they arrived. Pvt. Marion P. Brooks sustained a broken leg when his motol le turned over with him and Pvt. y E. David- son Is suffering with ear trouble. The following officers are in com- mand at the fiel W. D. Tipton, commanding; C: Black, senior in- atructor, Army Air Service; Maj Burwell, Capt.

So they went forth and robbed a train, and in the | fuss some men were slain. The broth- ers faded out of sight like formless phantoms of the night; before a healthy trace or clew ‘was found they'd disappeared from view; and then for vears the weary law. which | hoped to make three halters draw. went scouting over all the land. and | failed to find that bloodstained band. | But there’s one thing about the law— | ite patience has no fault or flaw, ' It | pulls its honers now and then, but | when it’s on the trail of men its vigil | tirelessly it keeps, it never i never sleeps. And so at the | brothers three were taken into cus- | tody, and now their hopeless lives | they'll spend in durance till thei days shall end. While they exist| they'll have to work where penalties | face those who shirk: they’ll have to labor day by day without the joy of | drawing pay. Once it was theirs to| choose their jobs and have good | wages in their fobs, to stand up fo | the toilers’ rights, and blow in shining | eoins o' nights. Their dismal weird they now must dree, their tasks the jailors will decree; they have no rights that any gent would value at | a half a cent. Tt once was theirs to | eboose the way, to prosper in the light of day, or join the scofflaws’ hot's shade. One truth has through | the ages stood; it always profits to be | good. WALT MASON.
