THAT'S HIS CUE TO RUN
Aims -at Mating Militant Advo

Special Cable to The Tribune.
LONDON'. Alay Willi I he aid
of a muscular but cliarminj,' lios-'
Ion girl, lilsie Chapin, the Brit
ish suffragette, is breaking out
in a new place. She lias been
offered physical exercises already
by ambitious expononls of various cul
ture schemes; but. it. remained for Miss
Chapjn to blend with that inducement
a judicious mixture for modern women
under the auspices of the Women's De
velopment society.
Her mother has been an inmate of
HoIIoway prison more than once, after
raids on his inajesl.y's uiiuisicrs, but
she herself has not reached the nuirryr
stage yet. When she docs, it her scheme
continues tmceessfully, she and her as
sociates will only reach durance vile
after they have left, traces of their
.ju-.jit.-su prowess on the anatomies of
the guardians of the peace. For though
tlns.Bostouinu belle welcomes even the
mere male with a smile that, is child
like and bland, and her movements in
the social circle arc graceful and re
fined, she. has in reserve a "punch"
that would not be despised by the "Tar
Baby" of her native city, and the Lou
don "copper." having heard of it.
looks forward to the next encounter
with misgiving.
Like a wise woman, she combines in
her new society influences that affect
both men and women sympathizers with
the militant suffrage movement. Her
primary object is to provide an oppor
tunity for the militants to take part, in
all sports and games, but to that she
links social and intellectual intercourse.
There are to be special lectures on
eugenics. h3'giene, local government ad
ministration, social reform, as well as
dances and picuics, interspersed in a
programme of physical betterment. Not
only boxing and ju-jit-su are provided
for, but also hockey, football, cricket,
lacrosse, tennis, walking, swimming,
rowing and riding.
Summer holidays arc to be arranged
on the economical basis of cooperation
and the sexes are to bo encouraged to
"get acquainted" ho that in the mar
riages that, result there shall be the ce
ment not merely of affection but of
mutual enthusiasm for the enfranchise
ment of women. In. such a homo there
is to be no bickering about who is
"boss'-; it is to lxs a partnership of
equal shares. Mutual respect will re
sult from the ability of the wife to
bear the white woman's burden if a
discussion ever comes to the length of
an appeal to arms.
This is not the only plan the Boston
girl has evolved for' the advancement
of the cause in England.
"English women arc good copyists,"
she says, "but they want leadership to
think but new schemes."
Ilcr home is in a little Bloomsbury
flat in the heart of London where she
is surrounded by cats, dogs and cana
ries, for which she has considerably
more respect, than for tho whole bunch
oC politicians at, Westminster.

of almost dally occurrence, and the au

At Oporto all business is at a standstill
and dangerous encounters are reported
between strikers and the military. In
bound vessels have been stopped, the cus

guards, and all work has been paralyzed
by thousands of strikers, who seize rvery

Aviator Loses Control of
Machine at Paris, Which
Plunges Into Group of
Cabinet Members.
ACCIDENT OCCURS
IN EARLY MORNING
Large Crowd Assembles to
Witness Start of Great
Race From French
Capital to Madrid.
PARIS. May 21. France pnid a terri
ble toll today for her magnificent en
deavor to attain supremacy of the air
when a monoplane, the driver of which
had lost control, plunged Into a group of
cabinet members who had gathered to
witness the start of the race from Paris
to Madrid, killing the minister of war and
Injuring the prime minister, his son and
a well Known sportsman.
The dead:
1 1 EN It I MAURICE BERTEAUX, minis
ter of war.
Tlie Injured:
Antoino Emmanuel Ernest Monls. pre
mier and minister of Interior; Anloine
Monls. son of the premier; Henri Deutsch
De La Mourthc aged patron of aeronau
tics, automoblllng and other sports. Many
others of note had narrow escapes.
The accident occurred on the avia
tion Held of Issy-L,cs Molineux, where
200.000 persons had gathered to see the
start oi the race.
M. Train was piloting the monoplane.
With him In the car was M. Bounler, a
passenger. Neither was Injured, but the
machine was wrecked.
Minister Horribly Mangled.
Minister of War Bcrteaux was horribly
mangled. The swift revolving propeller
cut off his left arm, which was found
ten feet from the spot where he was
struck, the back of his head was crushed
In, his throat was gashed and the whole
of his loft side was lacerated.
Prcmici Monls was burled beneath the
wreckage of the monoplane HVt was
taken out as riulckly as, possible and ex
amined by surgeons, who found he had
sustained compound fractures of two
bones in the right leg, that his nose was
broken, his face badly contused and that
there were bruises on the breast and ab
domen. M. Dcntsch and M. Monls were
not seriously hurt.
Among those who had narrow escapes
from injury was M. L,epinc, prefect of
police.
Premier Monls and Minister Bcrteaux
and party arrived at the aviation field
about 6 o'clock this morning, shortly
after Roland Garros, M. Beaumont and
M. Gilbert had started in the race.
The lino of spectators bordering the
flying field was being held rigid by sol
diers, who. however, permitted the min
isterial party and about fifty other per
sons of distinction to walk across tho
field to where they could get a hotter
view down the course and see the air
men as they rose from the starting point.
Vedrine'B Machine Capsizes.
While the great assemblage cheered
madly, the ministers saw Pierre Vcdrine,
who had been picked by ninny as the
probablo winner of the rare, mount easily
from the ground and head down the aero
drome, only suddenly to capsize and fall,
but emerge unhurt from the wreckage
of his machine.
Aviator Train mean while had taken his
position at the starling line, levers In
hand, and with M. Bounler beside him.
The breeze had been steadily freshening
and the meteorological observer In the
Eiffel tower telephoned that his gauges
showed a velocity of close to thirty miles
an hour.
Train, however, left the ground. As
cending swiftly he circled the Held, curv
ing round to the starting line and then
dying down the course at forty miles nn
hour, the machine rocking in the wind.
At this moment It was observed by t.ho
commandant of the troops that the
crowds were breaking the line formation
on one side of the Held and ho dls
pltched a troop of cuirrassiers to get
them back In order. The culrrasslers
galloped across tho Held, breaking Into
double lines as they went.
Train Loses Control.
Train's monoplane hero swooped toward
the earth under the Impulse of an air
flurry and It nppearcd as though the
aviator was about to dash into the cavalry-
The pilot's attention seemed mo
mentarily dh'crlod from his course and he
mado a quick turn to the left, where the
parly of officials were standing Then he
lost control of the craft altogether and
It dashed violently Into the ministerial
group
Tho impact knocked M. Bcrlcaux ten
feet away, where he lay In a pool of
blood, badly mangled, while under tho
wreckage of the monoplane lay Premier
Monls. his son and M. Deutsch. Train and
M. Bounler emerged from tho wreck un
injured A scene of frightful confusion followod.
From all parts of the field arose cries
,of alarm and dismay and tens of thou
sands of persons broke through tho lines
and moved toward the scene. The cavalry
by repeated charges managed to clear tho
field and the Injured men wore given first
aid treatment by Held surgeons. It was
Been that M. Borlcnux was fatally hurt
and Uiat M. Monls was seriously injured.
After tho ministers had been cared for
the surgeons dressed the wounds of those
who had received minor bruises.
No Time to Escape.
There are various versions as to the
cause of the accldont, but all seem to
asree that It occurred with such rapidity
there was no time for M. Bcrteaux, M.
Monis and I he others to escape.
M. Hersand. a nephew of former Pre
mier Dupuy, whoso newspaper, the Petit
Farlsleii. arranged tho race, said:
"M. Bcrteaux was Just asking me who
would be tho next starter and I was
consulting my programme to nnswor him
when glancing upward I saw the mono
plane plunglncr and careening toward us,
" "Look out!' I cried, and the next In
stant the wing of the aeroplane brushed
my side. Looking nround T saw tho min
ister of war lying In a pool of blood ten
feet away, Ills arm severed as though by
a surgeon's knife, The minister's head
was horribly crushed and blood was flow
ing from a cut In his throat.
"Premier Monls lay motionless, face
downward. I thought him dead. M.
Deutsch. his face ghastly pale, was try
ing to rise to his feet."
M Monls, Jr.. said ho thought he saved
his father's life by pushing him violently
to the Ki-ound the moment he saw the
machine plunglnc throuch the air. The

MEN NOT MADE BY
CANT LEGISLATION
Useless to Eliminate Bar
rooms Unless Sentiment
That Permits Them
Is Changed.
Dr. Goshen s Viezvs in
a NutShell
Prohibition will not prohibit.
If the pcoplo havejioi, been able to
control the ovil by ref-ulation,
how can they suppress it by pro
hibition? If you do away with the saloon,
you must supply something in its
place.
A great, institutional club in the
heart of the city would be a boon
to working people.
If .you are going to have "blind
pigs," under prohibition, better
have saloous and get rcveuua
from them.
If you make the home attractive,
you can keep tho boys at home.
You cannot, make men of character
by cant legislation.
Take the saloon away, and unless
3-ou change the sentiment that has
permitted it and made jt, those
same men, through opium and
chloral and all sorts of drugs, will
seek tho thing they are socking
there.
Positive and clearly defined opposi
tion to" the enactment; of a prohibition
law in Salt Lake Oily was voiced yes
terday by the Eev. "Elmer T. Goshen,
pastor of the First Congregational
church, in his morning sermon.
Dr. Goshen takes tho ground that
under existing conditions in this cjty,
a prohibition law will not prohibit. t.Jic
use or sale of intoxicating liquors, llo
points out that, if the citizens cannot
properly regulate the saloon, they can
not hope to regulate or suppress the
illicit secret traffic, as tho passage
of the law would not change the nature
or appetites of men. Ho advocates far
more stringent regulation of the liquor
traffic, the establishment, of working
men's clubs in the heart of the city,
and the education and training of men
step by step until their ideals will lift
them to the higher plane where they
will stand together for purity and
progress.
Dr. Goshen's address in full follows:
Wc are going to address ourseh'cs
this morning to a very large and a
very difficult subject, a subject about
which no one man has all the wis
dom, and concerning which no man is
yet able to speak the final word.
It concerns us all. for it has to do
with the life and welfare of our com
munity. Tho question of temperance is of
coarse a personal question, but the
question of the liquor traffic Is a so
cial problem, because it is concerned
with relationships. Tho question of
the regulation of the liquor trade has,
through the years, been one of the
most difficult questions bofore the
civilized world, and I believe that It
will continue to be one of the world's
difficult problems for long years to
come.
Ve do nol gather here todav to
study the history of this ques'tlon,
nor to Indulge in rhetoric concerning
Its evils; neither do we como to study
It as It affects sonic people In some
other state or city or community.
AVo come to consider Just one ques
tion, and that Is this: Would it be
for the betterment of our community
to adopt :l prohibitory act and thus
to make the selling of liquor in Salt
Lake City illegal?
Realises Problom Is Grave.
I understand something of tho dif
ficulty attending this question, and
am quite conscious of my limitations
concerning it, but ll is so vital to
all that. I cannot honestly avoid what
I would be very glad to escape, if I
could do so with good conscience.
In considering the question concern
ing which there Is such a. wide dif
ference of opinion, wc must all re
member that each one is entitled to
his own thought on the subject, and
that we will nol benolit each other
or the cause that we profess by call
ing each other hard names. This
question will not be sottled by abuse,
nor by misrepresentation, but by
-study and Intelligence and honesty.
If any ono has come here this
morning expecting lo hear tho saloon
eulogized, he had bolter be excused
now In the beginning, for he has
surely como to tho wrong place. The
saloon has made Itself to be an evil
and a very expensive evil. It has
mudc Itself to be an organized po
litical power until it controls na
tional, state ami municipal politics
and councils. It has made Itself lo
he bold, brazen-faced and audacious,
and If the question were whether or
not there should be any saloons in
all our country, or any liquor In all i
our country. I. for one, would not
ask a minute to tlx my ballot. But
that Is not tho question. The ques
tion Is whether we shall have liquor i
sold uudor the law, or whether wo i
will have liquor Sold outside tho law,
and that Is just tho question.
DrawB Plain Distinction. !
Whether wo shall have the saloon j
that can be controlled, If we want to ;
control It, or whether we shall have ,
tho blind pig. tho hole In the wall,
or tho bootleg, and the illicit corner
In tho drug store, and for ono I (
believe that It is the part of wis- j
dom, for the present, and under our
conditions, to handle this difficult ,
matter through operation of law. It
Is always and forever hotter to have j

OF VICTIMS BY RUSE
Bogus Telegram Presented to
Sou of Sheriff; Boy Gives
Up His Charges.
LAKE CITY. Fla.. May 21. Six negroes
were lynched here early today after a
party of more Chan a dozen men. mas
querading as officers, appeared at I ho
county Jail and secured possession of the
men by presenting a bogus telegram to
the 16-year-oltl son of the sheriff order
ing the release of the blacks to the al
leged posse of officers.
The negroes were being held here for
safekeeping on Hie charge of murdering
B. B. Smith, a sawmill man of Wades
borough. Leon county, and wounding un
other man named Register. May 12.
The men. who had come from Talla
hassee to this city In automobiles, look
the negroes about a mile from town,
compelled them to aland abreast and
about ten men commenced tiring with
rifles and pistols until every one of the
prisoners had been riddled with bullets.
The llring lasted about half an hour and
at daybreak citizens found the negroes
mutilated beyond recognition.
Daring Plan of Mob.
The plans of the mob were most dar
ing, though but. for an unusual combina
tion of circumstances they would never
hae been successful. The sheriff of
Columbia county 'was out of the 'city
and left the Jail In charge of the boy,
who, aroused in the early hours of tho
morning, allowed the negroes to be taken
from the Jail without knowing the sin
ister purpose of the mob.
The telegram which the loader of the
iliob showed tho boy was supposedly from
the sheriff of Leon county and stated
that the sheriff had received Intimations
that a mob was being fstrmcd In Talla
hassee lo take the negroes from tho Lako
City jail.
Boy Easily Deceived.
The message ordered thai the men bo
carried further south to frustrate the
suspected mob. The telegram appeared
authentic, as the six negroes have been
moved frequently.
Residents of Lake City knew nothing
of the lynching until a fusillade of dis
tant shots was heard. A few citizens
went In tho direction of the. llring and
found the bodies, but the lynchers had
disappeared.
The crime for which the negroes were
held created Htrong feeling in Leon coun
ty, as the men shot wore prominent, and
a general race war was predicted. It. was
proved that the negroes had established
a veritable arsenal and were prepared for
trouble. The negroes were, tlrsl taken to
Tallahassee, then sent to Live. Oak for
safekeeping, and brought to Lake City
six days ago.

MUSKOGEE. Okln., May 21.--Clarence
Henderson, bookkeeper in a bank at
Rcggs. Okln.. is dead, and Edward Bright,
son of a real estate man of the same
place, will die as the result of mistaking
a quart can of nltro-glyccrine for muddy
water.
The young men wore hunting today
when they discovered the can of explosive
under a boulder- They placed it on top
of the rock and ono of them fired a shot
Into It from a ,22-callber rlllf.
Henderson was so badly mangled by the
explosion that he died within an hour.
Bright'.? body wns cut In more than a
hundred places by particles of the can
and the rock on which It stood. He
crawled lo n farm house a mile and a
half away and told of the accident.
A physician picked thirty-llvo pieces
of tin from his body and located sixty
live more which were too deeply Imbedded
to reach. There Is no hope for his re
