CHICAGO TO SPRINGFIELD
Up 5 Hours and 44 Minutes —
Water. Oil, Gasolene and
Balky Pump Make Two
Stops-Necessary.
Sprinplicld. in., Sept. 20.— Walter
Brookins alighted in the State Fair
grounds at 4:27 p. m. to-day. 7 hours 12
minutes out from Chicago, having made
only two stops.
As soon as he had his machine stored
and puarded-Prookins, who is twenty
two years old. went to Springfield to
keep a luncheon appointment with the
reporters. The American record for con
tinued flight, previously held by Glenn
H. Corliss, at 141 miles, for a flight be
tween Albany and New York, had been
Fet nt IST miles by Brookins In a Wright
biplane.
He descended at Oilman. DL. seventy
flve miles south of his starting point, in
"Wanhtarron Park. Chicago, at 11:30
o_ m-, and at Mount PwSaOkJ. Hi.. 163
jnfles from the Martin* point at 3:20

-ojojd pssolene; the second for supplies
find b*«*«tu«»c his pump had broken and
§he engine had become hot.
. His olflciaj starting time was 1:15 a. m.
The longest sustained flight was from
Oilman, m.. to Mount Tulaski, eighty-*
" tight miles.
Brookins thus broke Charles K. Ham
ilton's record for su?tain*-d "cross-coun
try flight of eighty-six miles from New
York to Philadelphia. By making the
(safest 'croas-country continued flight
to America he -won th.< £10,000 prize
'offered by The Chicago Record-Her-
? nid.~
As Bmoklns swept out of the field at
fjCount Pulaskl, one of the small rubber
tired wheels on which he rolls in mak
;<lng headway before arising, struck a
irammock and was -wrenched off. Not

Brookins reached the State Fair
grounds oia+it minutes ».rfor<- th. Illinois
ITentrai fapt special train reached the
Fpringfield station, three and one-half
jnlles short of the fair grounds. The
actual flying time, was 5 hours 44 min
utes for th. I*3 miles, an avo-race of
nbout thirty-three miles an hour.
BjawoUaa found some difficulty in
ulightiJig. because of the inadequate po
lice provision at the fair grounds, and
nlthouerh he arrived over the grounds at '
A:22 o'clock, it was five mSnutep before
fes could land. The crowd Barged about j
Jiim. threatening to crush the machine. !
until he had to make a personal appeal
X' i g*=t the throng back.
"It was one of th.- prettiest flights I
f\( r made." said Mnhina later. "The
c .I'jr.try between Chicago and here is
rVlightl uI.XE very where I was flying low
«r.cußh— and I went as low as three

the people starinc up at me from every

Jhree-quarters of ji million looking at
me."'
Only v-it- r. "il and gasolene, nnd a
balky pump stood between Kr'>okiris and
a continuous, sustained flight between
Chicago and Springfield. Brookins said
lhat when his arms got tired he set the
apparatus with his knee and rested.
I Then he took hold again and soared to
greater heights, ready to g!id*> up and
down •wh*»r*> lea* effort was reeded to
control the. machine.
Two locomotives we— use 4on the
Sjper.Mi train, earn running about half
the distance, but both were behind when
■the aeroplane made its descents. Aboard
the train, which csirried many passen
gers as well as BroekfnsTa friends, all
was excitf-mejit.
Every country crossroad also had its
Quota of gazers, «nd every village was
filled with skygrazers. Trainmen would
fcbic, when they «am« up: "When Is

*"Way up ahead] there."

RUSH 10 SE GIMBELS'
Big Crowd Pleased with Every
thing at Store's Opening.
MUSIC FROM HIDDEN BANDS
Many Who Went to See Stop to
Shop Amid Masses of Floral
Decorations.
Xot one of the thousands who visited
Gimbel Brothers' new store, on Sixth ave
nue, between 32d and 33d streets, on the oc
casion of its opening yesterday could f-*ll
to marvel at the skill that carried the £i-
Kantic enterprise to such a state of per
fection.
While it seas impossible in such a vast
place, with its thirteen stories and twenty
six acres of floor space, its $«'.<V'O,o' Y > worth
of merchandise and its mile and a half of
show cases, to get any adequate impres
sion of the resources of the store, yet
every one felt that in all those acres of
floor scape, with their manifold depart-
♦ Tits, no detail had been neglected.
Until yesterday it was a store without
a customer. Twelve months ago no store
was then at all— only bare rock and earth.
But no one would have known, unless from
'he extreme modernneEs of the appoint
ment.-, that it had not been in operation
for years. Many of those who went out
of mere idle cariosity in regard to the
new shop found it so ready for service
that they soon abandoned the joys of
sightseeing for the more fm-lous occupa
tion of buying.
Splendid Decorative Scheme.
Not only had those at the head of this
enterprise been able to get into complete
working order at the appointed time the
ordinary machinery of a combination of 164
■tow in one. but they had. in addition, ar
ranged a splendid decorative scheme in
honor of the opening. Branches and fes
toons of evergreens gave a festive appear
ance to the various avenues of approach,
and inside there were flags, buntlns:.
autumn foliape and Immense quantities of.
cut flowers, together with a great number
of large and elaborate floral pieces. The
latter were testimonials from other firms,
ami in addjtion to their ornamental value
they served to illustrate the extensive re
lations of Qimbel Brothers with the busi
ness world. As if these attractions, com
bing with the varied allurements of the
c< enters, were not enough to make the oc
casion a memorable one. strains of music
from concealed orchestras greeted the ears
at every turn.
The third floor, where gowns, millinery
and furs "were displayed, was a scene of
enchantment. The floor was luxuriously
carpeted, and the beauties of the mer
chandise were advantageously shown in
cases of mahocany and glass, and here also
th^re were mn.-ic and flowers to aid in
delighting the senses. In this department,
as elsewhere, courteous and capable at
tendants waited upon customers, and owing
to the excellent organization, which was
equally manifest in sll branches of the
great establishment, were able to supply
their wants with a delightful promptness.
No Long Waiting for Change.
No expense ha.- been spared to do away
with the irritating and familiar delay in the
making of change and the wrapping of
parcels from which the shopping public has
so long suffered. In this way the firm
hopes to win the patronage of busy men,
but the system will be none the less appre
ciated by women, who in this day of suff
rage agitation and multitudinous interests
often find it difficult to secure time for nec
essary shopping.
fJimirti Brothers evidently understand
that tii.-re is n>< mote exhausting labor tr<an
that of shopping) anfi they l,av" thereiore
rnn'h' their Tearoom on the eighth floor a
ala< c where the cup that cheers without In
ebriiitint; may be taken und<-i conditions
that are r<-^tful and soothing. Here again
- a soft, thick carpet most grateful
be weary fe«-t.
Bed Mexican mahoßany pillars, with gold
finished swaela, support the ceilini?. and the
SB) ill. round tables and chairs, like all the
other fixtures of the store— show cases,
eoanwSM and even parritionis — «re «.f the
same wood. Each of these tables bore yes-
T'r:;iv a vase of carnations, roses or other
flowers and waitresses in whit^ attended
fin them.
Nothing seems to have been forgotten
that could conduce to the f-omfort or con
venience of the shoppers and the welfare of
the employes— now numbering 4,75<\ and
soon to be Increased to six thousand— has
not been forgotten. A prominent feature is
an emergency hospital, with ■ physician
constantly in attendance. This Is designed
primarily for the use of employes, but
patrons will - also be treated there when
necessary.
Thre*» and a half acres of floor space have
been Fet apart for the general comfort of
the emolore.«> and in one of their two r- s
taurants meals will be served fre*i |a those
who receive the minimum wage.
Another novel feature is ■ nursery for the
children of shoppers.
Housekeepers will be interested In th«»
provision made to Insure perfect scientific
cleanliness. There are no raised moulding?)
nor oracka to catch duet, and no fixture
cesses so , toae to the floor that brooms
cannot paps underneath.
Something of the capacity of the store
can be imagined from the fact that, in
spite of the vast numbers that visited it
yesterday, there was almost no crowding
or confusion either on the floors or in the
elevators. It was only occasionally, where
there was some special attraction, that, the
passage was found to bo at all difficult.

Washington. Sept. 29.— Politics, the plan
for the establishment of postal savings

were the principal topics of discussion at
the White House to-day. Representative
McKlnlay, of California, who was defeated
for nomination, accompanied by Repre

politics with President Taft.
The President and General Wood, chief
of staff, continued their examination of the
War Department estimates for the appro

reductions than the SlO.iiOO.om already an
nounced in the total as compared with the

President Taft received *li<- delegates to
the International Prison Congress in the
Bast P.norn this afternoon, in the course
of a brief address to the congress Mr.
Thi'l said:
I am delighted to have the honor and the
privilege of welcoming you here to this
place, where your president says, and cor
rectly says, that the first movement in
this direction bad Its Initiation by my
predecessor President Grant. I hope that
your convention will still more widely
spread information on the treatment of
criminals and the making of thorn into use
ful members of society, and that your de
liberations will not be influenced by maud
lin sentiment, on the one hand, or by a de
' sire for vengeance, on the other, It la
easy to err in such direction. If we mako
our prisons so comfortable that they fur
nish a motive for violating the law they will
not then serve the use for which they were
properly established: on the other hand,
they ar»? certainly net properly framed and
used if by associating with hardened crim
inals men who re not criminals, and who
may i.- saved altogether from becoming
criminals, the number of criminals is in
creased rather than diminished.
Sometimes when I have visited the pris
ons of iho United Statos government Itself
1 1 have thought that we were stronger In
theory than in practice. Cut I hope that
the United States government now has
prisons that illustrate at least some of tho
Improvements that you among yourselves
recommend. The Attorney General, Mr.
Wickersham, has. given some attention to
this matter and will be in your confer
ences to make such suggestions as occur
to him and to receive from you the many
valuable suggestions that doubtless will bo
presented by you. He represents the .De
partment of Justice, but hie also represents
the "department of mercy," where we hope
to mix the one with the other.

DUCK COLUMBIA FRESHMEN
"Sophs" Had Just Won at Push
—Dean Keppel Interferes.
Once, more the two lower classes of Co
lumbia University cam? together in combat
yesterday, hut this time the sophomores
■were victorious.
The upper classmen, through the student
board of representatives, had planned a
pushball contest for the second day's sport
to determine whether the sophomores could
take twenty of their younger brethren to
the sophomore smoker to-morrow night or
only five.
The second year men were all eager for
the affair, so as to retrieve their lost fort
unes of the previous day. After parading
around the quadrangle in loekstep fashion,
th« opposing classes proceeded to South
Field, -where they lined up, both facing the
large leather pushball— the fresh with
their back to the dormitories, while the so
phomores occupied the Broadway Bide.
At the sound of the whistle the second
year men rushed forward and soon pur
ceede-d in pusl Ing their rivals slowly but
surely back.
The first five minutes' interval ended with
fortune favoring the older men. During
the second period the ball was raised nloft
by some upper classmen, and this made it
more of a contest of strength and skill.
Again the sophomores won. There were
no serious Injuries as a result of the affair,
but tlir<« students, Francis Osbom. James
Wetherill, and Edward Simpson had to be
carried off the field.
After the big contest ended the rival
line* were formed as before, and both went
parading across 116 th street and up the li
brary *■'» P*
The nearby fountains tempted the vic
torious; Fopnomeres, and they sprang on
their defeated opponents and started to
hurl them bodily into the water.
At this juncture Frederick P. Keppel, the
new dean of the college, rushed out of the
Faculty Club and stopped the proceedings.

JAPAN'S NEW TREATIES
Negotiating with Practically Every
World Power Except United States.
Tokio. S*pt. 14. via Victoria, B. C. Sept
29. — With the close of the summer work
will begin in earnest on the new treaties
which Japan expects to conclude before'
the end of the year Every country, except
America i- now engaged in the negotia
tion of these treaties, and especially in
England there is much criticism on the
ground that Japan's ally Is given no ad
vantage.
Experts here point out that .Japan must,
in self-protection, car** for bet export trade
and that the greater part of that trade is
with the United States and France. Hence
it would bo impossible to glvo any country
an advantage because this at onen would
lay Japan's exports open to the maximum
tariff, where now her exports enjoy a mini
mum both in America and France, It la
quite possible* that In Borne cases no
treaties will bo made.
Then* is pood reason to believe that when
the turn of the United States routes If a
clause regulating Japanese Immigration is
insisted on Japan will decline to make a
treaty, claiming that her immigration Is
now being satisfactorily regulated ami that

FEAR CHINESE REVOLT
Foreigners Think Uprising Like

DiSCONTEMT WIDESPREAD
American Military and Naval
Forces in the East Ready
for Any Emergency.
Washington. Sept. 29.— China is said to be
on the verge of another upheaval similar
to the Boxer uprising, and the lives of for
eigners are in jeopardy. Advices received
here recently from government officials In
China express the belief that an outbreak
at any time would not surprise them. The
State Department has instructed officials to
maintain a close watch on the internal con
ditions.
All through the summer months there
have been muttering! of discontent in some
of the Chinese provinces, due to the rice
famine, dynastic difficulties and dissatisfac
tion over acts of th« Peking government
as to foreign investments in China. Good
harvests mitigated to some extent the grav
ity of the situation, but there Is still a gen
eral feeling of unrest, according to personal
letters received here from men on duty in
that Quarter.
The army and the nary are prepared for
any emergency, hut their readiness is solely
a precautionary measure, it Is prul
should not he taken as an Indication of im
medinte danger.
Authentic advices from those charged with
keeping In touch with the conditions indi
cate that the only thins: lacking to parallel
today's situation with that preceding the
Boxer troubles, which drew Into China the
American forces as well as those of other
nations, is the matter of organization, and
that it needs only a leader to effect that.
Every vessel in the Asiatic fleet, us well
as the military forces at Man I Is, Is pt —
pared for almost instant action in the
event of trouble. There are available in
the navy the armored cruiser New York,
which is the flagship of Rear Admiral
Hubbard. commander in chief of the fleet;
the protected cruiser New Orleans, the
gunboats Callao, Helena. Samara, Vil
lalobos. Mindoro and Pmragna, the light
draft gunboat Wilmington, the protected
cruiser Albany, the cruiser Rainbow,
the coast defence .vessel Monterey and
the transport Buffalo. All these ves
sels are in reach somewhere between
China and the Philippines, the New York,
the Albany and the New Orleans sailing
to-day from Hong Kong for the Cavite
station.
Revolutionary uprisings are of greater
or leas frequency throughout China, and it
is recognized by the Washington authori
ties that trouble is possible at any time
in some or the provinces. Hunan province,

FUNERAL OF GEORGE CHAVEZ
Mountaineers Pay Tribute to
Daring 1 of Alpine Aviator.
Domo d'Ossola. Italy. Sept. 23.— The fu
neral of George Chavez, the Peruvian avia
tor, who was fatally injured after having
accomplished the unprecedented feat of fly
ing from Switzerland over the Alps to
Italy, was held to-day.
The occasion was remarkable In the mat
ter of tributes paid to the daring of th«
youth. General Splnirardi. Italian Minister
of War, sent a special, representative, and
the populace of the town nnd the surround
ing country followed the body to the
church. Floral tributes came from all
parts of Europe, and thousands of peasants
tramped down the mountain sides, with
their arms filled with mountain Rowers.
One little girl laid upon the casket a bunch
of edelweiss, that blooms alone amid the
eternal snows of the Alps, bound with, a
ribbon upon which had been written:
"Gathered among the mountain peaks over
which you flew."
An autopsy revealed that the aviator's
heart was displaced by the nhock of the
fall when a wing of his areoplane col
lapsed as he was attempting to alight.
"KID" f/j'COY IN FiGHT
Free Show on Broadway Ends in
Arrest of Principals.
A large crowd in front- of the Caf£
Madrid, Mill street and Broadway, wit
nessed an encounter last night between
Norman Sei'ny. better known as "Kid" Mc-
Coy, and a man whs described himself &3
I. Willard Hem. a mining man.
McCoy lost his hat. and Hem showed a
marked discoloration under the left eye.
Patrolman McKicrnan led both men to
the West 47th street station, the spectators,
augmented by late arrivals, tagging along.
A tall, stylishly gowned youn? woman who
had been with Hem followed him la the
station.
Hem told Lieutenant O'Neill he was
walking pool the Cafe Madrid, when Mc-
Coy stepped from the door and struck him.
He attributed the ex-boxer's attack, he
said, to the fact that as had instituted di
vorce proceedings against Mrs. Hem some
months ago. naming McCoy as a co
respondent.
McCoy said Hem had offered to aid Mrs.
McCoy to secure a divorce.
In the night court the men made counter
charges of assault, and Magistrate Bre^n
held them in the sum of «309 each, and
continued the cases until to-nicht to allow
McCoy to secure counsel.
Georpe Considine gave bail for McCoy,
and offered to tio so for H«Mn. but th© court
objected, so Edward Kauffm.'.n signed
Hem's bond.

The New Idea in Dress Goods
Showing by Models How the
Materials Look Made Up #
In a promenade arranged in the Dress Goods Salons,
the newest Paris tailored costumes are shown alongside thz
same sort of fabrics of which the gowns are made.
The costumes tell you in a word whether they will be becom
ing, they show whether the fabrics are graceful, they do away
with any doubts as to their tailoring qualities.
Even more important, they supply the best ideas of great
French couturiercs, for you to use in your own suit, which may
be the color and fabric you desire.
Your own dressmaker or the Wanamaker Dressmaking Bu- I
reau, if you choose, can copy these costumes in whole or in part-
Meaning, that you can have practically a $250 Paris street
gown copied in the same fabric and color at a nominal cost.
Side by side, you can see that the fabrics of these Paris gown*
cost about two dollars a yard. Trimmings and linings add little
more to the cost.
The art of Paris is supplied to you free of cost. At the same
time the fashionable French and English materials are brought to
your notice.
We believe such a thing has never been done before ,in.
America!
But then, Wanamaker does not wait to follow others!
