On May 27 a railroad train 62 years old is going to steam into Seattle. That's older even than the dilapt- dated automobile picked up the other day by The Star's marine reporter for $11.67. Tt will be manned by an ancient conductor, dressed in the trainman's uniform of civil war days, and the paasongers—if any can be found who are bold enough to ride— will be brushed off by a venerable old white. whiskered porter with a million serv. ice stripes on his sleeve, It’s to be the Great Northern's idea of showing the ehanges that 60 years have brought in tho art of train building, Alongside of this an. cient relic, when it goes on exhibi tion at the.

Fred erick L. Martin, commander of the American round-the-world airplane flight, began today. At 7 a. m, when no word had been received from the daring viator since he hopped off from Chignik for Dutch Harbor, Unalaska, at 11 a. m. ray, the search was or coast guard cutter Algonquin, patroling the route between Chignik and Dutch Harbor along which Mar tin waa to fly, radio Chignik for all boat cannery fleet making headqui there to take up the » They will cover the coast as far i a request to of the salmor arch as Shumagin island. The navy radio this morning broadcast a call for all ships in the |vieinity to watch for the missing flyer The cannery station between Chignik and Duten Harbor, reported that no sign of Martin had been seen in that vicinity, adding to the mystery of where he might be, Weather conditions were exceed- Ingly unfavorable, All day yexter- dxy-and-during the early part of to- day, a gale, chilled and snow-laden, was blowing off the snow capped Mountaing which skirt the coast Mine. Maj. Martin's disappearance adds another to the list of thrilling ex periences which has marked hi part in the American round-the- world flight. THREE OTHER PLANES MORE FORTUNATE While his three companion flyers have been able to make thelr way with comparative certainty, trip has been one adventure another Only on one leg of the flight has he been able to land with his com- penions, thut having been the flight from Prince Rupert to Sitka. It seemed the climax of his adven- ture had been reached, when in the flight from Seward to Chignik, he was forced down at Cape Igvak and remained thruout a stormy Arctic night on his plane, awaiting the gr- rival of rescuers. But that adventure was only to be foliowed by his daring flight of last Saturday from Kanatak to Chignik, when he flew all day in the teeth of a blinding snow storm. And now comes apparently another and perhaps more thrilling experi- ence. Thru it all Major Martin has maintained characteristic good na- ture and never hesitated to leap from one hair-breadth escape from acci- dent or worse, to another. “I'm awful lucky to be alive,” was his comment, when rescued at Capo Igvak, and again, when he made the flight from Kanatak to Chignik, which he characterized as his cape from the cauldron of winds.

Vintevogel is held in lieu of $1,000 cas hbail. Soon after the young McDonald was arrested he told the coroner that his father had been ‘with him on the party. The elder McDonald denied this when first questioned, but when put in the stand in the coroner's inquest he admitted he was present at Vintervogel’s but de- nied the he drank anything except a few glasses of beer. William McDonald started his speed orgy at Fourth ave. S. and Jackson st. about 9 o'clock Sunday night, after leaving the booze joint, when a policeman chased him for speeding. He tore up Fourth ave. at a Speed estimated at 55 miles an hour and dashed thru the crowds that were on the downtown streots Wicklund failed to get out of the way of the auto on Pike st. and was hurled to instant death, McDonald was captured after he had escaped the police and wrecked his car on Queen Anne hill.

Duthie pursued him down the staircase to the first floor and saw him open the front door and run across the lawn, He chased the man to the edge of the road and then turned back, “T didn't have a gun, but if T had I think there would have been one loss burglar in town,” Duthie told The Star, “I think he was worse scared than I was.” The man entored the residence by unlocking the back door, He had ransacked the music room in leisurely fashion and also a chest of drawers in a room on the second floor. He took nothing but an old blackjack which was being kept by Mr. Duthie as a keepsake.
