BRAVE AIRMEN SAVE Danish Vessel Picked Up Miss- ing Fliers, Aviator Hawker and His 11Mvigator, Grieve, Were Forced to Alight In the Middle of Atlantic Ocean When Their Engine Stopped and Were In the Water Ninety Min- utes Before Being Rescued. LONDON, May 26, --Missing for six days and virtually given up for lost, Harry G. Hawker and his navi- gator, Lieut. -Commander MacKenzie Grieve, the British airmen who essay- ed a flight from St. John's, New- foundland, across- the Atlantic Ocean. without protection against disaster, save what their frail airplane afford- ed, are safe aboard a British warsizii off the Orkneys. Some 1,100 miles out from New- foundland and 800 from the Irish coast, on Monday, May 19, the lona aviators, making the best of an en- gine which was failing to function properly, were forced to alight on the water. The little Danish steamer Mary, bound from New Orleans and Norfolk for Aarhuus, Denmark, picked the wayfarers up and con- . tinued on her northward voyage. t .Lacking a wireless outfit, the cap- tain of the steamer was obliged to withhold the good tidings of the res- cue until he was opposite Butt of Lewis, where the information was signalled by means of flags that Hawker and Grieve were aboard his ship. Immediately word was flashed to the British Admiralty, which sent out destroyers to overtake the Danish vessel and obtain absolute confirma- tion. This was done, and one of the destroyers took the airmen off, and later transferred them to the flagship Revenge. From this safe haven Hawker sent a message Sunday that his machine had stopped owing to the blocking of the water circulation system. When the airplane sped away from her starting point, Pilot Hawker let loose his wheels and undergearing, thereby lightening e y the weight of the machine by a considerable amount, but making a possible landing on the soil of Ireland a more hazardous ;ven- ture. This. however, probably proved of murk advantage when it became necessary to alight on the surface:of the water. The airplane reznai rred afloat without difficulty during the hour 'and a half it took the Danish steamer to come up and effect a res- cue. All England is stirred by the news of the safety ,of these two stout- hearted aviators, but owing to the difficulties of communication, some time must pass before the full details of one of the most remarkable voy- ages ever undertaken are known. It is officially announced by the Admiralty that the aviators were picked up in latitude 50.20, longitude 29.30, having alighted close to the little Danish steamer Mary, owing to a stoppage of circulation in the water pipes between the radiator and the water pump. The airplane, a Sopwith machine, was not salvaged. The first report of the aviators since their famous "jump-off" last Sunday come when the Mary, which was bound from Norfolk to Aaarhuus, rounded the Butt of Lewis Sunday and wig -wag- ged the fact that she had Hawker and Grieve aboard. "Saved hands of Sopwith air- plane," was the signal. "Is it Hawker?" was the question sent out by the flags from the Butt, which is the most northwesterly point of the Hebrides group off Scotland. "Yes," laconically replied the Mary. The Admiralty immediately sent out a fast torpedo-boat de- stroyer in an endeavor to intercept the Mary and take off the aviators. After several hours word was flashed that the destroyer had come across the steamer and transferred Hawker and Grieve, and was taking theta to Thurso, on the northern coast of Scotland. The news of the rescue has elec- trified all Britain. Eight destroyers, after a thorough search of the At- lantic for 300 miles from the Irish coat, had given up the quest, and there was practically no hope that the airmen were alive. But the for- lorn hope that the aviators might be picked up by some craft without wireless was realized. The Danish steamer Mary, crawling along at nine knots, was the lucky vessel, and her brief message to the watchers at the Butt of Lewis as she proceed- ed on her way past Scotland, left the publice to speculate wonderingly over the details of the airmen's adventures. Nothing except some great battle has excited London more than the unexpected tidings. The public was disposed to question whe- ther the first report could be trusted, and the Admiralty, statement that it was taking measures to verify the report indicated doubt, which the Woolsun's message dispelled. Mrs. Hawker, wife of the aviator, received news from the Mary early Sunday morning at her home at Sur- burton and posted a notice outside her home, reading;; 'Mr. Hawker has been found.. He is on the boat 14lary bound for Denmark." A Crowd of villagers soon gathered and showered Mrs. Hawker with con- gratulations. The one person in England who had always held hope was Mrs. Hawker, She always maintained that Providence would protect her man, and, though she received condolences from all classes of people, including the King, she said Sunday that she had never ceased to believe that some time and in some way her husband would come back. The London Daily Mail, wino of- fered a purse of $50,000 for the first night by a heavier-than-air craft cross the Atlantic Ocean, will give Elaw.ker and Grieve a consolation Wingham has landed a new factory the Aero Cushion Inner Tire and Rubber Company of Ontario, capita- lized at $300,000 which proposes to manufacture a puncturless inner tube. The company was organized in the Wingham district and practi- cally all the stock in the company is held by business of Wingham and surrounding towns. Thomas H. Bennett is president and L. Kennedy, Wingliam, is secretary of the new concern. The plant of the Western Foundary Company has been qurch- ased and machinery has now been ordered. It is expected that the new ,,tubes will be made in ,the not distant future. According to the claims of the company the new tubes ride as easy as pneumatic and prolong the life of the casings, at the same time eliminating punctures, blowouts, etc. A serious accident happened to fourBayfield citizens last week. On Monday while Mr. Thomas Elliott was driving a team of young horses thew become unmanagable and ran away, throwing out the driver and breaking his ankle and otherwise in- juring him. It will be some time be fore Mr. Elliott will be able to work again. On Tuesday Mr. Wm. Mus- tard had the little finger of his right and cut off while working with the edging saw ire the saw mill. Mr. W. A. Stinson received a severe kick on the arm and breast from a young horse he was leading to the pasture field. Fortunately Mr. Stinson's arm was not broken, but he has to carry it in a sling. Mr. Robert Pen - hale had the misfortune to lose his Clyde stallion. The horse and its manager were stopping at Brenner's Hotel at Grand Bend on Monday night. In the morning when the stable was opened, it was found that the animal had broken through the floor and was dead. We want a religion for both worlds for this because we are living in it— for the next becaese we are going to it—one that prepares for the next by right living in tilts—•a religion that softens the step and gives melody to the voice that checks impatience and irritation and gives self-control; a religion not merely for the church and the prayer meeting, but for busi- ness, for the family and for every day life; a religion of both faith and works; and of works as founded on faith; a religion of principle as well as feeling, of right habit 'as well as occassional impulse, that projects the honeymoon into the hara,'<.,t moon, and makes the happy home like the figtree, bearing at once thebeauty of the tended blossoms and the glory Of the ripened fruit, a religion that shall level the ruts and gullies and rocks in the pathway of life and give joy in that pathway to all who are in it. Luxuries and the surroundings of .wealth and idleness cannot, bring con- tentment to a young woman of pluck and good sense She would far rather deny herself all luxuries and enjoy the glorious sense of independence which her own exertions bring, if parents could but realize this they would perhaps oftener assist their daughters in procuring self-support- ing honorable enjoyment. wherein the restless roving of the mind might be checked. t. a Children Or•rr prize of ,5,000, FOR FLETCHER'S The Senate has decided to appoint �"° a finance committee and to gi'b'e more attention to financial measures cast tug from tilt; Conlrlionsa ;.._a:..I:
