Incidents of interest. With virtually
simultaneous starts from Mlneola and
San Francisco, wost bound and east
bound fliors strove to win the honor
of crossing tho continent first. News
of Lieutenant Mnynard's arrival Sat
urday, October 11th, at the Pacific ter

word that Major Carl Spatz and Lieut.
E. C. Kiel had reached tho Atlantic
terminal within half a minute of each
other. Captain Lowell H. Smith fol
lowed them with claim to first place In
nctual Hying tlmo.
Maynard's actual flying tlmo from
Mlneola to San Francisco consumed
Uttlo over twenty-five hour3 and the
flying time of Spatz and Kiel camo

Army air service computed Smith's
actual flying time, however, at thirty
minutes bettor than Maynard's
Hero at North Platte Lieutenant
Maynnrd and Captain Smith landed
within a few minutes of each other,
tho first flyers to greet each other
from the east and west. Both had
been Hying at a rate close to two
miles a minute. Maynard led his field
by a generous margin, but Smith was
hotly pursued by Spatz and Kiel who
arrived at tho North Platto control
station only a few minutes behind him.
On tho return Journey the "flying

Francisco a day or better In advance
of Kiel, Smith and Spatz at Mlneola.
Ho winced It fast and furlouslyallow

within twenty miles of Omaha Thurs
day forenoon held him back. Ho
worked on repairs all that day and
night and Friday climbed Into the air
again and headed "homo."
In tho first thirteen hours of his

correspondent of l'Kclnire of the watch
which once wns the property of Robes

saw at an exhibition of curios. It
surely should have long ago found its
place In the Carnnvnlet. The watcn

size of one, and wns made of silver.
It opened In tho center, the face be
ing In flie lower section, while the top
section wns ornamented with penr

the size of a pear, arid a good deal

what bizarre tastes on the pnrt of the
