Rhelms, France. Aug. 1M. Glenn 11.
iJuiiiss, the American aviator, and M.
Paulham, repiv-enthig France, divided
the honors of the second day of avia
tion week, the former with a thrilling
lllghl at the rale of fortj -three miles
an hour. In which lit) lowered the speed
record for the course, which measures
six and oiie-iifili miles, to s minutes
",." -."i seconds, the latter making two
impressive hl::h altitude lllghts of forty-nine
and ouo-lmir and tifty-slx kilo
meters respectively in the endurance
test for the Prix do la Champagne.
Curtiss' performance began just as
the time limit for the start of the Prix
de la Champagne was expiring, when
ihe American enthusiasts had aban
doned hope of seeing their representa
tive take the Held. Amid the unbound
ed Jubilation of the French spectators
Itlerlot only a few minutes before hail
clipped sixteen seconds off Lefebvre's
record with his powerful eighty horse
power monoplane.
Suddenly at one end of the Held n
cry went up. "The American is atari
bur." All eves were Mtr.-ilmxl to Hint
particular point where Cortiandt Field
Hishop. president of tho Aero Club of
America, and a crowd of other ad
mirers surrounded Curtiss.
With a preliminary run along the
ground of a hundred yards the ma
chine rose lightly and shot by the trib
unes ut a height of sixty feet. It was
going at a terrific pace, with the wing
level as a plain. Curtiss made tho last
turn under the mistaken Impression
that the finish line was closer. He de
scended so close to earth that many
thought lie touched; but. perceiving
Ills error, he mounted quickly and eas
ily, crossing the line majestically. An
instant later the siunal was llolsted
that lie had made a record.
Curtiss said that he had not pushed
his machine to the limit of its speed
and laughingly declined to say more,
adding that the most interesting lncl
dent of ills llight was the view he "ot
of his fallen rivals strewn around tho
course.
It is the intention of tho American
aviator now to await patiently the in
ternational event for the Gordon Ren
nett cup on Saturday, for which lie is
again the favorite, after which in. win
try for the Prix de la Vitesse, the final
or which wilt be contested on Sunday.
Paulham alone made a record in tiie
endurance test, but Lofobvre, Sointner,
Sunehls-Pesa, P.Ieriot. Delagrauge,
Lambert, Cockburn, Runau - Varilla,
Gobron, Latham, Tissandier and Fnr-
niun qualified with lllghts varying

meters, the niajorltv contenting tliom
selves with covering sulllcient distance
to get within the limit.

"Three Twins."
"Three Twins" which comes to
the Lyric Theatre during Old Home
Week, Wednesday evening, Sept.
8th, is positively one of the best
musical comedies that has ever
been produced. It ran for ten
months at the Herald Square Thea
tre In New York.
"Three Twins" Is a musical
comedy with a plot and many novel
features. The music titillates and
tantalizes, and the witty lines and
adept clowning excites one to
laughter. Mr. Jos. M. Gaites has
so lavishly costumed the beautiful
show girls that they are pleasing
to the eye. In the second act there
are eight of the handsomest Paris
ian Dlrectolre gowns worn by beau
tiful and shapely girls. The elec
trical effects are marvelous, the
faceograph being a distinct novelty,
the electrical aerial swing being an
amazon structure of steel, illumi
nated with over 1,000 electric
L lights revolving at a rapid rate
with six girls In the baskets sing
ing "The Cuddle Song" is said to
be one of the most beautiful finales
ever staged.
