BERLIN, April 15.—Dr. Kurt Wegener | and his brother, Dr. Alfred Wegener, two | young German scientists attached to the | Aeronautical Institute of Lindenburg, have just been successful in beating the | record for the longest duration of a bal- loon trip, established by Comte de la | Vaux in October, 1901, when he remained | in the air forty-one hours. | Starting on the morning of April 5 from the grounds of the Military Ballooning | Corps at Tegat, near Berlin, the Wegener | brothers descended at midday on April 7 ‘ at Aschaffenburg, in Spessart, after hav- | ing been suspended in the air more than | fifty-two hours, thus having beaten the | record trip above mentioned by a good | eleven hours. | When mountainous country was reached | the aeronauts, who had kept to the lower | strata of the alir, ascended to a height of | 8500 meters. The aeronauts, however, | were {1l provided for such a voyage, their | sole provisions consisting of two cutlets and two bottles of soda. The intense cold 4 degrees below zero (Fahrenheit) also added to their discomforts. —————— Death Calls Lumberman.

SAN JOSE, April 15.—Eastertide was observed tonight at the First Unitarian Church by a service of rejoicing over the burning of $10,000 mortgage on the | church property. The church was beau- | tifully decorated in honor of the occa- sion and was crowded to the doors with | those who gathered to witness the last act in the lifting of the church debt. The age, ‘which was satisfled in full a ago as a result of the donations | of the congregation and the friends of | the church, was consigned to the flames by Mrs. M. H. Herrmann, who for many years has beeh the treasurer of the church. Special music was sung by the choir, under the leadership of Mrs. Hiliman | Smith, and remarks were made by Rev. George W. Stone of Berkeley, represent- ing the American Unitarian Associatio Dr. ¢ Maynard, president of the church; Colonel Philo G. Hersey, Rev. W. T. Patchell, Rev. W. E. Crouser and Rev. Anthony Mills. Congratulatory messages were received from all parts of the State. The First Unitarian Church of S8an Jose was founded twenty years ago by Rev. Thomas Van Ness, and its first pastor, Rev, N. Haskell, filled the pulpit for nearly fifteen years. Filve years ago, dur- ing the. pastorate of Rev. Burt Estes Howard, the mortgage of $15,000 was re- duced to $10,000 and this burden still in- cumbered the church when Rev. Anthony Mills, the present pastor, took charge. Through his efforts a campaign to wipe cut the debt was inaugurated a year ago and the congregation responded gener- ously to the call for ald. The entire amount was soon subscribed and the church property is now entirely a few da UNITARIAN CAURCH AW S S RO | s\\\\\\k‘_ I 235 ) PCTURE OF THE KAISER Police Placed at{ b-‘P‘ortrait of Emperor William in an Exhib#ion® in ‘Paris PARIS, April 15.—Yesterday was ‘var- nishing day” of the sixth annual exhi- bition of the National Society of Fine Arts, and it attracted a brilliant gather- ing to the Grand Palace. In spite of the presence of a number of good works by French and American artists, the salon this year marks a lower artistic level than that of last ye No pieture stands out pre-eminently, nor are there any absolutely bad. Impression- ism seems to be on the wane, and the ex-. travagances of those formerly shown and sometimes admired are now rare. The absence of any pictures by Sargent cre- ates a regrettable void in the American | ranks, while pther prominent Amerlcan | artists do not exhibit. America otherwise is well represented in number and quality. Boldini has some very talented but contortionist portraits; ‘Walter Gay has several charming in- teriors; Mrs. McManies a handsome deco- rative panel, and Rolshoven exhibits a good portrait. Other American painters who attract attention are Darling, Field, Alexander Har n, Childe Hassam, Gate Melchers, Travis, Ullman, . Upton and Vail. A . Among the French artists Carolus Dur- am shows two unusually good portraits. L'Hermite has four pictures, two of whfth are especially fine, and La Touche excels with some decorative panels dis- playing great subtlety of workmanship and harmony of color. Bgrnard, Blanche, Dagnan-Bouveret, Courtols, Dinet, Gar- rige, Meslericher, Roll, S8imon and Thau- low exhibit some very good works. Jean Veber attracts attention by his serio-comic vein._Two pictures by Woog are charming. Borchardt displays a large portrait of the German Emperor, which attracts crowds of people. It is especially guarded by the police to prevent possible mischief by the French patriots. + —j free from debt.

Richard Tobin deciared at the St. that young Clark was close to death, although the telegram stated that he was a very sick man. ‘““My sister and I are hurrying to him,” he sald, “‘and we can- til we get there.” Clark was in S8an Francisco two weeks 280 and seemed to be in good health. It is probable that he caught a severe cold here and that it later settled on his lungs. ————— SAYS HIS BROTHER WAS SHOT AND KILLED BY BRAKEMAN Employe of Southerm Pacific Accused of Murdering a Man In Azizona.

Of the entire volume of lapsed policies in the Equitable 84 per cent were for 33000 or less.” In commenting upen the results of his efforts to restore the standing of lapsed policy holders, President Morton today sald: “My belief that the small policy-hold- er was the chief sufferer from the ag! tation and excitement regarding life insurance Is now confirmed. The hold- ers of policies of $5000 and upward are generally men of business experience. ‘Chrough fear based on misapprehension of the real facts and often on misrepre- sentation thousands of émall policy- holders allowed their policles to lapse. ———————— W WARNED A YEAR AGO b l"\'x OVERSEERS OF ZION Told That His Misapplication of F .
