THE FUTURE OF FLYING,
Analysing the deaths that have taken place, it is possible to draw a practicallosson from each. Thus, the set of circumstances which brought about any one of thos fatalities is not likely to octur again. Inexperience, foolhardi- ness, and constructional wouk 871. poss in machines have been re- sponsible for practically all the accidents which have taken place. Given a good machino, a careful, woll-trained pilot, and proper weather conditious, flying is al- rondy as safo us inotoring; and vory soon it promises to bo sufer, The dangors which now exist when a man flies will speedily bo overcome by the introduction of stronger, speadier machines, and the adoption of engine systems whereby compulsory descent, owing to inechanical troubles, wili be obviated. The air is absoluto- ly free and unimpeded. Once wo havo definitely conquered our onomy the wind, it will offer au- absolutely ideal medium for high- speed traffic, bosides providing a traveller with the most dolightsel way imaginable of getting from point to point.

Thero can be no question that THE the canard which has recently boen industriously- cirenfator throughout the wide Empire of China, assorting that plans aro being developed by ti i Foreign Powers for the partitioning of China, has greatly prejuîlicod the people against the Government, since it is reprosented as the result of the Government's incapacity. It is not improbable, wo think, that the report was put in circula- tion with this intention by the revolutionary organisation, though in the only detailed state- mont on the subject we have ston, the rumour, was stated to have been telographed to the Princo Regent over the joint signaturos of the Chinese Ministers in Paris and London. An intelligent European would immediately perceive on reading it the utter absurdity of the story, but it ovidently has imposed successfully on thousands of Chinese readers.

view of the spirit of dissatisfaction which vented itself in a series of outbreaks some months ago, il was a wise forethought to incapa citato this branch of the sorvico from undue mischief. With the other forces at his call, the Vice- roy pursues successfully a rigor. ous policy of suppression, and in order to ensure the peace of the province, he has summoned mili- tary aid from Kwangsai.
