FLIGHTOVER CHANNEL
Louis Blerlot Descends on Dov
er In His Monoplane.
Daring Aeronaut Traveled at Rate of
45 Miles an Hour at Height of 250
Feet Above Water Says He Had
Absolute Control of the Machine
During the Half Hour's Flight From
Calais Wins Mail's Prize of $5,000.
Th sleepy seaport town of Dover,
England, experienced the keenest
thrill In a generation when at sunrise
Sunday morning a white-winged, bird
like machine with loudly humming
motor swept down from the haze ob
scuring the sva toward the distant
French coast, and, circling twice above
the high chalky cliffs of Dover, alight
ed on English toll.
A calm Frenchman, Louis Blerlot, a
portly and red-nutstached man of 37,
descended from the saddle, limping on
a bandaged foot, which had been burn
rd on his previous flight. Immediate
ly two compatriots, who had been wav
ing a big tricolor flag as a signal for
the landing place, fell upon him en
thusiastically, embracing him, shout
ing and pounding him on the back.
Blrlot left Lea Baraques, three
miles from Calais, about 4:30 a. m. on
one of the smallest monoplanes ever
used. He crossed the channel In a
little less than half an hour, twice as
swiftly os the fastest mall boat. His
speed averaged more than 45 miles
an hour, sometimes it approximated
60 miles. He kept about 250 feet
above the sea level and for ten min
utes, while about mid-channel, was out
of sight of both coasts and the French
torpedo boat destroyer which followed
him with his wife and friends aboard.
The wind was blowing about twenty
m'les an hour and the sea was choppy.
The aviator was swathed In a single
garment, Impervious to the wind, only
his face showing. He wore also a
cork lifebelt.
By his achievement nierlot won the
prize of $5,000 offered by the Ixwdon
Dully Mail for the first flight across
the English channel, and stole a march
on his rivals, Hubert Latham and
Count de Lambert, both of whom had
hoped to make the attempt Sunday.
Parts of the framework of the mono
plane were splintered on landing. Ev
ery one expressed surprise at Its small
size. It Is no more than twenty feet
across the wings, and Its weight Is
about 400 pounds, the motor being
twenty-five horse Kwer. In the same
machine Blerlot recently made a
cross-country trip of twenty-five miles
from Etampes to Orleans. It Is the
smallest of threo he took to Calais.
The- machine is fitted with an airtight,
sausage-shaped rubber bag so that It
would float If It descended to the sea.
Blerlot said, however, that he had ab
solute control of the machine through
out and had no fear that the motor
would fall. The only difficulty he ex
perienced was the force of the wind,
which hurt his face and eyes badly,
and the wind eddies which twisted his
machine about while nearing the Eng
lish coast.
BOY AERONAUT'S FLIGHT
Landed In a Marsh Seven Miles From
Starting Point
Encouraged by former successes,
one of which was. the vaulting of
crowded Broadway, Frank Goodale,
of Hackensack, N. Y., known as
the boy aeronaut, attempted to fly his
dirigible from the Palisades park
across the Hudson from Upper Man
hattan to Belleville, a suburb of New
ark, N. J. He lost his way In a fog,
however, and came to grief by landing
waist deep In a marsh about seven
miles from the point of starting.
In an attempt, to keep his machine
above the maish young Goodale had
thrown over all ballast on hand and
discarded a considerable part of his
clothing.
FIVE PICKED UP FROM SEA
Had Been Clinging to Pieces of Drift
wood For 24 Hours.
As if from the bottom of the Bea,
five of the storm-wrecked victims from
the Tarpon fishing pier were picked
up alive In the upper Galveston
bay. They were found clinging to
pieces of driftwood and were In an
exhausted condition.
With the report of the rescue of
these five men hope for the safety of
the other five persons who It was be
lieved lost their lUes In the storm, is
much stronger, although it is feared
tliM the others may have succumbed
t(Olie ordeal of twenty-four hours In
the water. Those still unaccounted
for include Captain R. L. Bettison and
wife, and C. P. Dalley, circulation man
Igor of the Galveston Tribune.

aster, retreated to their old positions.

Soestdyk came into port. Tho Half
Moon Is only 74 feet long over all
and has a breadth of barely 17 feet.

WRIGHTDFFICIALTEST
Wind Prevented Carrying a
Passenger or Flying an Hour.
For the First Time Artificial Means of
Gaining Initial Impetus Was Dis
carded and the Aeroplane Soared
Easily From the Monorail by the
Motor's Own Power Time Limit
For the Official Tests Expires on
Wednesday.
Washington, July 27. While Or
Vllle Wright did make a two and a
half minute flight, under very adverse
conditions," with his aeroplane at Fort
Meyer last evening, the occasion by
reason of the presence of President
Taft and a brilliant assemblage of
Washington official life and an im
mense crowd also of mere people
"ultimate, consumers" as one congress
man described them bore an air
more social than aeronautic.
Everybody had txpected Wright to
make the first of his official tests of
his aeroplane, the endurance test, or
an hour In the air with one passenger,
and nobody had forgotten that the
last time he attempted this feat, only
ten months ago, It cost the life of
Lieutenant Selfrldge of the signal
corps and a broken thigh and ribs for
Wright himself. Beneath the gaiety
and the brilliancy of the occasion was
an undertone of apprehension.
A stjff wind, blowing In puffs and
at a velocity as high at times as 20
miles an hour, caused the postpone
ment of the expected trial and the
Wrights attempted only a brief flight
without a passenger, to show the pres
ident the aeroplane really could fly,
and to avoid disappointment of the
crowd.
With President Taft, flanked on either
side by Speaker Cannon and Senator
Aldrlch, looking on from a tent which
had beeen erected for him, the ma
chine was trundled to the center of
the drill field and poised on the mono
rail. For the first time artificial means of
gaining initial Impetus was discarded
and the aeroplane soared easily and
gracefully from the monorail by the
motor's own power. The 5,000 spec
tators broke Into a long cheer.
Three times the machine was taken
around the field, the planes seemingly
assuming a more dangerous angle at
each turn, and with a sharp swerve
was brought Into the wind and care
fully landed.
It was not until 7 o'clock that the
Wright brothers abandoned hope of
undergoing the endurance test of one
hour's duration with a passenger.
President Taft, accompanied by
Senator Bourne and Captain Archibald
Butt, his mllltarv aide, was among the
first to visit the Wrights In their
workshop. Shortly afterwards Am
bassador and Madame Jusserund and
Mrs. Nicholas Longworth Joined them.
The two brothers madp known to the
French ambassador their satisfaction
as having bnen decorated by the
French government with the cross of
the Legion of Honor yesterday. Others
who crowded In to pay their respects
to the two seroplanlsts were Secretary
of War Disklnson, Postmoster General
Hitchcock, Lieutenant General Nelson
A. Miles, Attorney Genpral Wickers
ham and Rear Admiral Cowles.
After the flight, Orvllle Wright de
clared himself well satisfied with his
achievement, under what he termed
very unfavoroble circumstances. He
expressed the hope of being able to un
dergo the government test for both
endurance and speed today. The time
limit for the official test expires on
Wednesday.
