Some one thousand one hundred miles out from ewfoundland and 800 from the Irish Coast, on Monday, May 19, the aviators, making the best of an engine which ‘was failing function proper were forced to alight on the water. The little Danish steamer Mary, bound from New leans and Norfolk for Aarhuus, Den- mark, picked the wayfarers up and continued on her northward voyage. Ship Had No Wirciess. Lacking a wireless outfit, the cap- tain of the steamer was obliged to withhold the good tidings of the res- cue until he was opposite Butt of Lewis, where the information was signaled, by means of flags, that Hawker and Grieve were aboard his ship. Immediately word was flashed to the British admiralty, which sent out destroyers to overtake the Danish vessel and obtain absolute confirma- tion. This was done, and one of the destroyers took the airmen off and later transferred them to the flagship Revenge. From th safe haven Hawker sent a message that his machine had stop- ped owing to the blocking of the water circulation system. From the Revenge Hawker sent the \efollowing message to The Daily Mail: | “My machine stopped owing to the | water filter in the feed pipe from the radiator to the water pump being blocked with refuse, such as solder and the like, shaking loose in the radiator. It was no fault of the Rolls- Royce motor, which ran absolutely perfect from start to finish, even when all the water had boiled away.

The air- plane was not salvaged. The first report of the aviators since their famous “jump off” last Sunday came when the Mary round- ed Butt of Lewis, the northernmost point of the Hebrides Island, and signaled the fact that she had Hawk- er and Grieve aboard. Saved hands of Sopwith airplane,” was the signal. “Is it Hawker?” Eent out by the flags from the Butt. “Yes,” laconically replied the Mary. The admiralty immediately sent out a fast torpedo boat destroyer in an endeavor to intercept the Mary and take off the aviators. There was an anxious wait of several hours, when the word was flashed that the destroyer had come across the steam- er and transferred Hawker and Grieve and was taking them to Thur- s0, on the northern coast of Scotland, about 100 miles east of Butt of Lewis. The Revenge reported to the ad- miralty later that Hawker and Grieve would sleep on board her tonight and would reach London at 7 o'clock Tuesday evening. Will Get Prize of $25,000. The London Daily Mail, which of- fered the purse of $50,000 for which Hawker and Grieve were flying, wiil give Hawker and Grieve a consola- tion prize of $25,000.

Even on Saturday evening she was §still hopeful, declared that Sunday was her lucky day and said: We shall have g0od news tomor- row.” Today her home was inun- dated with telegrams of congratula- tion and the telephone in the gaily beflusged dwelling was constantly ringing. In a message expressing his own pnd the queen’s sympathy and con- dolence, King George on Saturday ex- pressed his fear that Hawker had lost Vhis life.

Dispatches from American corre- spondents in Paris have stated it was understood the chief opposition to making the treaty public came from Premier Lloyd George, although Pres- jdent Wilson later had approved the British premier’s view. It was stated however, that while Mr. Lloyd George was absent from Paris the week be- fore last the remaining heads tenta- tively agreed to the publication of the financial and territorial sections of the treaty owing to the demand of the French chamber of deputies to see the document. When Lloyd George returned he declined to give his approval to the plan, however, and it was abandoned.

Realizing that the great in- crease in the cost of clothing and shoes as well as other liv- ing cxpenses has caused a sub- stantial rise in the price of la- bor, we helieve the newsboy as well as anyone else is com- pelled to increase his profits if he is to give satisfactory serv- ice and be able to keep him- self properly shod. His cus- tomers, we feel sure, will take a similar view. While the Herald, as is the case with every busin is paying substantial increases for materials and labor, it will con- tinue to sell the paper to its hustling young news merchants at the present rate, 2 cents a copy, making his profit 6 cents a week.
