I I TWO MORE DIE World Renowned Aviators Meet Death lostantlv bv Falling MISJUDGED CURRENTS Moisant, nt New Orleans, Falls Hundreds of Feet unci Has His Neck llroken?Hoxsey, ut Los Angeles, is Dashed to Furth in Aeroplane unci Crushed by the Machine. John B. Moisant and Arch Hoxsey. aviators ertraordinary, were killed Saturday. Both fell out of the treacherous air currents with their machine*- -neither from a vast height?and Moisant's remaining minutes of life were so few as to count as naught. Hoxsey was killed instantly. Moisant met his death at 9.55 a. tn., attempting to alight In a tield u few miles from New Orleans. La. Hoxsey, who went into the air early in the afternoon at Los Angeles, Cal., lay at J: 12 p. m. a crushed, lifeless mass !n view of the thousande who were watching the aviation tournament. Thus the last day of 1910, in bringing the total number of deaths of aviators to thirty, capped the list with two of the most illustrious of those- airmen who have been writing the history of nviation in the skies of two continents. Moisant, a Chicagoan by birth, after an adventurous life in Central America, became interest* d in aviation in France less than a year ago. Aftei soaring into public recognition bv his plucky bight from Daris across the English Channel to London, witli a passenger, Moisant's fearlessness and resourcefulness were exhibited n-'iuniii). rmuing mmseit wittiout a machine, he purchased one from a friend for $10,000 anil within ten minutes, starting on his winning Hight from Hc'.mont Park, N. Y., around the Statue of Liberty, win ninK a prize of J 10,000. Today a sudden puff of wind caught him within 500 feet of the earth, turned his machine over and a broken neck terminated his career. Arch Hoxsey, after a year of uniform su cess with the Wright aeroplanes, had gained a name lor daring and competence in the air. Only within the week he had set a new world's altitude record of 11,474 feet, and then to show hL contempt for the earth, had sailed majestically more than 4.O00 feet above Mount Wilson. Today he ran afoul of the ramo kind of boiling, treacherous wind when some 500 feet front the earth, and a minute la'<-r a horrifieo crowd, aroused from its shock, was rushing madly to where a broken n"iss of humnnity lay beneath a tori, hit of canvas and some broken spars Iloth met death In almost the sanu manner. Each machine was headed for the earth snd suddenly seemed to stop, hover in the air, then "tu'n over on to its nose," and dive heau long to the earth?and to destruction. Moisant's aeroplane was a Hl.-rim monoplane, and in addition to the heavy engine in front of the male planes, he had fastened a tank holding 155 gallons of gasoline. Aviatiou experts believe a sudden puff of wind stopped his machine dead in the aii and the heavy weight ahead dragged the light framework behind it. Hipping the then useless rear elevator. From his position partly hack of the main planes, Mo-sant w is flipped out oh i; of the machine, and struck the ground on his head, breaking in* neck. He d! d on a flat ear upon whi< h he was being rushed to .New, Or' :ins. Horsey, likewise was returning from a journey into the clouds. 1 s-? was wi'hin five hundred t< oi of 'he tilth and cheers were going up to me t the "onpuerer of the higher iir. when his machine seeui"d *o stop, shudder and whirl over and over to the ;round. As in the morning's traged . the .ear el? vator. rendered useless when the moment am was one, flipped mound, helpless to aid the fated ime hine. lluxsex vainly endeavored to right hi craft by v. irpln; the m.iin planes and by use of the rudder.

Onlj :i few rarmcra and aids saw Moisant hurled to his death, but Hoxsey's end came before the horri- ' tied gaze of thousands who had eonie ' out in the pleasant afternoon to ' watch the birdmen darting lu re and 1 there through the air. The day's ph asurt end" 1 when an ' announcer, sadly lilting his megaphone, droned out the message: " Vreh Hoxsey has been kille '.. There will he no more living today." Mrs. (*. M. Hoxsey, of Pasadena. Cal., missed by a mere accident seeing her son meet his death. She had arranged to take her first areoplant ride with her son today. Some de- ' tail of importance in her household 1 detained her and word of the accl- ! dent was taken to her by Roy Kna- ( benshue and Thomas Jackson, of the 1 Wright Company. i TOLL OF THE MOBS FIFTY . SEVEN PEOPLE WKRK I LYNCHED THE YE Alt FAST. Florida, C*eor??ia, Alabama, Arkansas nn<l Texas Led in This Class of Violent I?eatlw. Only 57 l>nehings were recorded in the United States in 1910, a much smaller number than In almost any previous year in the last 16. In 1909 the total was 7 0 and in 1908 it was 65. All but five of the 57 cases of 1 vnt'hln rv in 1 U1 n wnra " V ? VI t ui uciiiun), and ten of these cases were those In which the charge against the victim was assault on white women or girls. In 11 of the remaining number the chargo was attempted criminal assault,. In the five rases of white men, four were for murder and the other for aiding and abetting in a 'ail delivery. Several of the cases in which nee rocs were lynched were based upon the murder, or allege 1 murder of white women in which tliej question of assault is implied. As in previous years, nearly all the Ivnchings were in Southern states. Florida and Georgia having ten each. Alabama and Arkansas eight each. Texas six. The only lynching in the North occurred in Ohio, the victim being Carl Ktherington, and agent of he Ohio Anti-Saloon league, who | met death at the hands of a mob :n Newark following his imprisonment in Jail on a charge of having murdered a saloonkeeper while making v raid "en >n alleged hllnd tiver. On* man has heen convicted of having patlcipated 'n this lynching and givtn a 20 rears prison sentence. Following is the record for 1910, by states: Alabama, eight negroes; j Arkansas, eight negroes: Florida. , eight negroes and two whites; Georgia. ten negroes; Louisiana, one white man: Mississippi, five negroes; Missouri, three neuroes; North Caro Una, one negro: Ohio, one white iran: Oklahoma, one negro; South Carolina, o;.o negro: Tennessee, two negroes: Texas, four negroes and two whites Of the five whites lynched, two t were Italian . who were lynched in Florida. They were charged with murder and with inciting the siots , wk.iiik sir.KP oi ciparmakera in j Tampa. Another of the white viitlw'a j was a Mexican ( who was shot and burned at the stake near the Texas' bonier, following his confession that he had murdered a white woman. Of he 52 negro victims, two were women. I *n many of the cases the lynchings , followed the arrest or conviction ot the victims on the charges made against them. In other cases the victims met death while endeavoring ( to escape from pursuing pcsses. In ( two cases the negro victims were Unched by mobs composed of members of their own race. In almost , every case -he victim was summarily . bunged or shot without burning at ^ the stake, such as accompanied these , acts of summary vengeance in former years. j 7?

Joseph T Robin, who wrecked the Northern Hank of New York while at its head, attempted to kill himself again on Friday. With head erect, shoulders. and eyes levelled at the bteery of cameras trained on him, Joseph (J. Robin, the indicted banker, stepped from his sister's home to face airaignment, calm in the knowledge that he had swallowed a dozen tablets of hyoscin, the subtle and deadly ilkaloid. with which Dr. Crippon killed his wife, Helle Elmore. lie co> lapsed before he could be taken into Court, with the exclamation: I'm a dead man; I've taken poison tablets." The case was postponed in the greatest excitement, a stomach pump was hurriedly brought into play and the sick man was carried first to the prison hospital, adjacent, and later to Hellevue. where he lies in the prison ward. No charee of attempted suicide is entered against him. and it ifthought he will Recover, although the action of hyotscin is slow, and much will depend on his vitality. The time at which Robin took the drug is apnroxlately tlxed by tlie testimony of Dr. Austin Flint, retained for Robin by William Travers Jerome. his counsel; Dr. Louise Robinovitch, his sister, and two detective, from the district attorney's otlice who rode with liim from his sister's house to the Criminal Court building Dr. Flint told the Court that as nearly as he could judge from the svtuptoms, the poison had been in Robin's system about three-quarters on an hour when he collapsed. The two detectives were positivt their prisoner swallowed nothing nt the way to Court. I")r.

She kept the drug in her house and she thought her brother swallowed twelve tablets. At Bellevue the examining surgeons estimated that Robin had taken about one-tenth of a grain. Robin seemed in good heal'h Saturday morning, better than at an> time since his troubles commenced The first sign of illness was when he staggered, on stepping from his automobile to the Criminal Court building. In the elevator he weakened so rapidly that the detentlves had t< lift him to a couch. There he sunk Into unconsciousness and was not revived until the stomach pump had been worked vigorously. Its prompt use undoubtedly saved his life.

D., has been put an wheels and moved to Winner, where, as the result of a bitter county seat war and agicement between the two towns, it has consolidated with Winner and as a town ceased wholly to exist. Large store buildings with their valuable contents were moved Intact. Hanks, with their rash In the vaults, were put on wheels and made the trip across the prairie while Uhe clerks continued to work and nioaev was received and paid out ot customers. Without disturbing the officials the county court house was hitched to two of the 'art'st traction engines ever built, atnl it was dragged from Larnio to Wimu r, where it was placed 011 a foundation peviously prepared for it. The Larnio hotel, drawn by *72 teams of horses, made the trip without so much as ceasing business a single meal. The court house, a big two stsry frame building, was the first to r>e moved, since it was necessary that the big house he put In place before smaller houses blocked the way. The big traction engines were hitched to it, and across the prairie it went, the big engines puffing and snorting like Mogul loco-uotive?. The distance was three miles, and this was covered in just two hours. So evenly was the 'job" carried on that clerks, writing a' their deskB were undisturbed. After tbe court house and Jail were moved residences went over in regular fiocks. When nightfall overtook a house which w.is being moved the structure wn.

Then the movers began on the business houses. and store after s'orc was tak? :i to Winner without being interfered wi h Hanks were removed without the money being locked 11 p. and deposits were received and checks paid without a halt. The big school house was taken over for the day, only half a day being lost by the students. Although the men in charge of the engines offered to take house. tea< hers, children and all, the authorities did not care to risk the collapse of the buildline when it was occupied by so many children. The cost of moving va'-ier! from $r?0 for a dwelling to $5oi> f?.r a store filled with goods. It cost nearly $1,000 to take the court house to the new town and put if in the position it now occupies.
