VAN DE MAN IN GOVERNMENT AEROPLANE. First Woman in United Btates to Go Up in Heavier-Than-Air Machine— Wright's Pupils Master Machine. College Park, Md., Oct. 27.—With her skirts tied tightly about her ankles to keep them from fluttering in the breeze Mrs. Van De Man, wife of Capt. Ralph De Man, Twenty-first United States infantry, occupied a seat beside Wilbur ‘Wright when hesascended in the gov- ernment’s aeroplane here today. For four minutes she experienced the sensation of soaring in the air, some- | times as high as sixty feet above the ground. This was the first time a woman had made an ascension in a heavier-than-air machine in the Unit- | ed States, the Wright brothers having ed a multitude of feminine im- portunities for aerial excursiohs. “Oh,” exclaimed Mrs, Van De Man when she returned to the ground, “now I know what makes the birds sing.” Lieutenants Lahm and Humphreys had so far progressed with their mas tery of the government’s aeroplane to- day that just before the closing of the afternoon’s work Wilbur Wright step- to the rear and allowed the two s to oversee all details in the management of the machine prior to their ascension. He practically retired from the field, so that the officers might not share with him the credit for the flight they were about to take. They made a successful ascension, but after being in the air thirty-one min- | utes the machine descended rather sud- denly in a remote part of the field. One of the supporting wires had given away and upon hearing it snap the officers had promptly pulled the lever to make a landing. The damage w trifling. | His pupils have progressed so far | that Mr. Wright today announced his intention of abandoning them for sev- eral days, allowing them to use the aeroplane at their discretion. The flights will continue here as usual. Five flights were made today. During the afternoon Mr. Wright took Capt. Charles De Forest Chandler of the signal corps on a flight of six | and one-half minutes, this being the tonic.
