PR P —— WITH UNGLE SAW'S | BOYS AT THE CANAL Life in the Zone Described in Let- ters Received Here Life in Uncle Sam’s Canal Zone is described in two letters received by Deputy City Clerk Harry A. Har- greaves. One is from Battallion Ser- geant-Major E. V. Burrill, who is with the Tenth Infantry of the regular army at Camp E. S. Otis, and the is from First Sergeant Theo- hoge of Company A, Fifth In- y, who is stationed at Empire. Major Burrill was farmerly sergent instructor of the First infantry, which includes the two military companies in this city. Major Burill recounts an interest- ing trip he made over the old Porte Bello trail of Sir Henry Morgan across the isthmus to the city aof old Pana- ma. The trail is still in good condi- tion although overgrown with rank vegetation. It is paved with stone and Major Burrill wonders where Sir Henry brought the stone from. Sergeant Schoge tells of the work Uncle Sam’s khaki-clad wariors are doing in the Canal zone. When he and his compatriots arrived at Em- pire it wag almost a wilderness. But Pay Day on Board the Lord Nelson, Now Operating at Dardanelles at present it is a pleasant place to live in except for the intense heat. The soldiers have built a theater capable of seating 1,000 spectators. This has been constructed of timber and other material picked up along the canal. Moving picture shows will be presented every night and vaude- ville from company talent will break the monotony of the “movies.” The theater will also serve to keep the men from the city of Panama, which is anything but an anteroom to heav- en, judging by Sergeant Schoge's de- scription. ‘Within a stone throw of Empire is a jungle, filled with poisonous reptiles, vegetation and insects. It is so dense that a person might easily become lost and wander around until his terrors were appeased by death. Men who taxation as- have been in the jungle for not more than an hour have been dragged out raving mad. UNFINISHED RACE. Remainder of 2:10 Pace Run Off at Charter Oak Today. Hartford, Sept. 8.—The 2:10 pace which went five thrilling heats yes- terday and as, unfinished as it is of the three of five variety, became an added attraction on today's card at Charter Oak Track in the grand cir- cuit meeting. The other races were to be the 2:06 pace, purse $2,000, the 2:24 trot for three year olds, valued at $2,000, and the 2:04 trot for $1,000. "THis “was the third morning when weather conditions were un- promising. On preceding days the skies cleared by noon and the track was all to be desired. In the unfinished race Judge Or- monde was twice a heat winner, and then was distanced, after Hal Boy had taken the initial heat. Russell Boy, the contender in each heat then took two heats.

JANIN INVENTOR OF FLYING BOAT Hearing Next Week- Will Mean $800,000 fo Glenn Curtiss New York, Sept. 8.—The boy was possibly five years old. His golden curls lay about his face. In his hand he had three clothes pins dove- tailed together. “Hey, pop!” he beat Glen Curtis yet. new flying machine.” Albert S. Janin, who was once called inventor of the hydro-aero- plant, smothered Albert S. Janin, Jr., in his carpenter’s embrace. The boy’s flying machine was smashed to smithereens. Janin sent the .boy away and brought his fist down on the table with a bang. Invented Hydro-Aeroplane. I tell you I invented the hydro- teroplane, and not Glenn H. Curtis. But Curtis is a rich man, and I'm just a poor carpenter. The board of examiners of the patent office in Washington decided I was the inven- tor and then, last week, the commis- sioner of patents decided I was not. 1’1l fight Glenn Curtiss in the court of appeals. Janin is a dreamer, say his neigh- bors. He was born in Staten Island, and is living a few blocks from his birthplace with his wife and seven chilaren. He is thirty-six years old, and since he was a cadet on a Ward steamer at nineteen, he has dreamed shouted. “We'll Look at my ! of an airboat that would imitate the flying fish. Built First One. Several years before Curtiss thought of a hydro-aeroplane, Janin built the model of one and begged friends and strangers, among them Lewis Nixon, to supply him ,with the $3,000 neces- sary to buy a motor. Only his wife believed in him. On January 26, 1911, he flled an application for a patent on his design for the flying boat. On August 22 of the same year Glenn H. Curtiss applied for a patent on the same ‘‘counts.” He brought his case before the examiner of interferences; Janin didn’t have the money to hire a lawyer. He told his story to Thomas A, Hill, a patent attorney ana former president f the Aeronautical Soclety of America. Hill decided to fight the case without charging Janin & penny. Janin won before the board of ex- aminers. Then Commissioner of Patents Ewing reversed the decision on the ground that pricrity of claim was not enough. Within thirty days Glenn H. Curtiss will be called to court in the District of Columbia. If he loses the fight, he loses contracts with the Allies for flving machines now being constructed which are valued at $800,000. “We'll win!” cried day. Janin yester- Curtiss Should Give Up. “Curtiss might as well give up his fight now,” said Thomas A. Hill, in hig office, in (the Woolworth Building. “I have a surprise in store for him which we won’t have to appeal at all.” Janin pointed out that the Curtiss company had made several offers to him and his attorney to stop the fight. Even his children are talking hydro-aeroplanes, dreaming of them, and they listen as he argues the de- tails of the case before them. Joshua Shaw, painter, sculptor and EricsonaJohnson 30 and 34 DWIGHT STREET. inventor of the percussion cap, was Janin’s great-grandfather. Janin was 1 a creative artist even as a youngster. Among his accomplishments at the age of ten was a model of the cruiser Indiana, which has been pronounced perfect. City Items Remarkable values left in our final clean-up sale.

When the war is over the work here will be enormous. To hasten reforms we shall have to abandon all outworn forms and, if I do not deceive my- selt, the role Spain will have to play will be such that her progress, which hitherto has been at a snail's pace will be increased to a tremendous speed.” ‘The same progress may be expect- ed for all humanity if the war results in general disarmament,” observed Senor Cevillier. No Disarmament After War. “Ah, no,” returned King Alfonso- ‘“‘After the war nations will arm more than ever. When one sees a coun- try like Belgium, neutralized by agreement of all nations, eventually finding no other defense than her own armed force it is easy to understand ‘that other countries, big and little, realize ¢hat to exist it is indispen- sible to work in times of peace and surround themselves with the most positive gurarantees.” “Does not Your Majesty think the lower social orders will exercise pressure on the governments to pre- vent them from increasing the bur- den of armed peace " asked the in- terviewer.
