White, pastor of the Congregational church, Ledyard, Conn., died of heart troubles at the home of her son July 19, 1911, after an illness covering several months. Sha was born in Rensselaer- ville, N. Y. in 1838 She was the daughter of Naaman Watson and Sarah Wightman. Both of her parents were descended from old New England families who went west into New York in_early days. Her grandfather Wightman, descended from the first Baptist pastor in Connecticut, who bore that name and spent his ministry in Groton. She married Franklin White in 1 of this union two daughters and one son were born. Her daughters died at an early age. On the death of her husband, in 1906, she came to live with her son in Hinsdale, N. H., and for the last three years she has lived in Ledyard.

A novelty in the way of heavier- than-air flying machines, being the first of the type to be Ruilt, the in- ventors, Edson F. and Dennison Gal- laudet, are confident of attaining suc- cess with it. The distinguishing fea- ture is three pontoons, which rest on the water, undearneath them being hy- droplanes, from which the aeropiane gets part of its name, and which en- ables it, after attaining sufficient speed, to rise from the surface of the water into the air. When on the wa- ter, the craft draws 10 inches. Overcomes Alighting Dangers. The machine of course alights on the water as well as starts from i, and by so doing eliminates tine-tenths of the danzers of cominz down on land. 400 Square Feet Lifting Surface. The wings of the machine, which is a_monoplane, present 400 square feet of lifting area, each square foot, it is caleulated, having a lifting capacity of about 4 1-4 pounds. As the total weight of the monopiane is 1,3 pounds, there 1s a liberal balance al- lowed for passengers. A 123-horse- power, six-cylinder Emerson aerial engine, with a_compressed-air starting ce and a Bosch dual ignition s tem, runring on either battery or mag: nato, propels the monoplane, which is 56 feet long, 44 feet wide and has a foot propeller, with a 9 3-10 foot pitch, built by the American Propeller company of Washington for the Em- erscn engine, Iorty gallons of gaso- line can be carried. The three pon- toons and the framework of the ma- chine are practial'y all aluminum, thereby insuring maximum strcngth with minimum weight. The planes are covered with a standard rubberized fabric made by the Goodyear com- pary. The engine makes from 1,100 to 1,200 revolutions a minute. Ignition Troubl In the test of the engine Wednes- day there was trouble with the igni- tion and an expert has been sent for to remedy the trouble. Just when the hydro-aeroplane will be taken out on the water again has not been decided. The scene of the test was the broad place in the river between Stoddard’s wharf and Kitemaug, the machine be- ing towed by motor boat from the shop just above the Uncas paper mill, donw the river and back. Many peo- ple saw the hydro-aeroplane and are much interested in its future. ideal Morning. esday morning was an ideal one for the trial and prompted the builders to take out the machine, which has been practically completed for some time and the delay in the trial has been made until Mr. Gallau- \ Wi det had been taught to fly. The ma- ne was taken from the shop to the r soon after six o'ciock Wedne; morning and about nine o'cloc! was towed down to e broad expanse of water which provided a desirable Jevel surface for the test. 30th to Secure License. Edson F. Gallaudet now one of 30 licensed aviators of -this coun- holding the thirtieth license to be th try, Engine Tested on Thames River But Ignition Trouble Was Found—No Ammpt Made to Fly—Gallaudet Bmdnen Confident of Success—Older Brother One of the 30 Licensed Aviators in Country. granted by the Aero Club of America, the securing of which makes it neces- sary for one to qualify before club officialy. The great advance made in Burope over this country in aviation is shown by the number of aviators there are across the water. In France alone there are 800 licensed aviaturs, while in the rest of Europe there are 400, making a total of 1,000 in the old { country to 30 in this country. Mr. Gallaudet” was taught by Avia- tor Welch and has been at Belmont park, near Gardem City, L. 1, some time, taking a course in aviation. It was necessary to do this to get his license, and he has been doing stunts for several weeks past, having just returned therefrom. He uséd a Wright machine in his flying and has done 20 miles cross country and has been up to a height of 2,500 feet. One day he want up 820 feet and while flying about disappeared twice in the clouds so that he could not be seen from the ground. One of the requifements in qualifying is that the aviator must land within a distance of 165 feet from where he started.- Mr. Gallaudet was second best in this stunt, landing within 13 feet of the point from which he began his flight, which is a clever accomplishment. There are nu- merous stunts required by the com- mittee issuing the license, it being necessary to make figure eights in the/| air, make a certain altitude and in addition to this Mr. Gallaudet carried lup a passenger with him. Mr. Gallaudet states that the igi tion trouble will be remedied quickly, he believes, but how soon he will ai- tempt a flight cannot be told. Another point he desired to determine on Wed- nesddy was the amount of water ths aeroplane will displace. As to whether he would move his plant away from here, Mr. Gallaude: stated Wednesday that hé was unabl: to state. The securing of a location is quite a probiem, he says. Mr. Gal- laudet is a graduate of Yale in the class of 1893, an old Yale oarsman, and at one time taught physics in the academic department of that univer- sity. New and Distinct Design. In regard to the Gallaudet hydro- monoplane, William H. Stebbins, who has bean interested in aviation for z number of years, has visited many of the meets at Boston, Belmont park and elsawhere, has seen and examined every type of aeroplanz that has flown cessfully in New England and York, and in all has witnessed upwards of a hundred flights, believes that the new machine will achieve success. He says: The Gallaudet monoplana is of more than usual interest, being of a new and distinctive design, and comprising many original well worked-out details of construction which have been car- ried out in a most thorough manner |and with expert workmanship. Much credit is due the designers of the ma- chine, the largest practical aeroplane | ever 'constructed in America. It is worthy and sure of success. The Stebbins Triplane. Speaking of his own efforts in build- ing a flying machine, Mr. Stebbins states that no progress is being made on the Stebbins and Geynet aeroplanc. Work is held up pending the settle- ment of a claim_which the builders have against the E. R. Holmes Rotary Motor company of Denver, CokL He recently made a trip to Denver for the purpoese of straightening matters out, receiving a letter recently that the motor had been completed.

Gilbert & Sons retain their shop for the manufacture and repair- ing of furniture, and also the office and a building on their property where their horses will be kept. and they will also have ample store room. Mr. Reynolds will have the entrar.ce to his stables on Chestnut street and will also erect a residence facing that street later, which will be about 50x25, two and a half stories in height, where he will make his home. The barn, which runs about the full depth of the property and is 24 feet wide, will be added so as to make it about *30 feet wide and this will be used as the main stable building. Two other buildings will be used for storage and carriages. There will also be quite a little va- cant space on the property for vard room, and the location of his stables will be central, STAR TUCKER SOLD. Horse Brought from West by E. R.

Brow of Willimantic to S, Pentland of Wo cester, a noted horseman, who is to ampaign the animal on Pennsylvania race tracks. By the deal Mr. Jones receives a pair of fine draught horses and a good sum of money, In all, Mr. Jones fig- | ures that he is about $1,200 to the good on the sale. Star Tucker this spring- was put under the care of K brothers, who have ch e of the training of horses at Willimantic, and has shown great ferm, going sev- eral miles under 2.15. It was Mr. Jones' intention to race Star Tucker at all the meets at Woonsocket and Hills Grove R, I, tracks, where bet- ting in the past was carried on. Since the game was killed recently by Gov- ernor Pothier, Mr. Jones decided to get rid of his prize. Star Tucker was brought from In- dianapolis_three years ago by E. R.

REDUCES COSTS, BY WAIVING auvm:. Edgarton Fined $1 and Costs in Montville Justice -Court for~Speed- ing. Jd. There was another automobile speed- ing law violator before Justice Smiddy in Montville on Wednesday, J. B. Ed- garton of Willimantic being the one this time. He pleaded guilty and was fined $1 and costs, amounting to. 11206 which he paid. His costs are smallest yet owing to the fact that h- waived the necessity of a constable serving notive on him in Willimantic. He heard of the fact that he was due to be arrestad and telephoning to the Montviile authorities found the report was true and agreed to be there on Wednesday and kept his word. Although he pleaded guilty Mr. Ed- garton was of the opinion that when hs went over the road he took care that he was not exceeding the speed limit and watched his speedometer. He noticed that he never exceedsd 21 miles an hour while on the road, but the constables evidently caught him where he didn't expect it, as they are in the habit of chanzing the trap fre- quently. He considered taking an ap- peal, as he had witnesses he could call, to whom he showed as they passei over the road that they were not go- ing over 21 miles an hour between Norwich and New London. The con- stables told him that there were two watchs held on him and he went over the eighth of a mile two seconds too fast. He finally decided the quickest and easiest way out of the trouble was to settle, which he did. PLANS BEING WMADE TO PAlNT SYAGOGUE Unlted of Names a Committee for a Picnic.
