One side of his\nface, whose engaging smile had won\nthe regard of thousands of spectators\neach day during the meet had been\ncrushed.

Hut if 1 can stand it and my\nmotor works as well as it lias I'll come\ndown with a record of 12,000 feet or\nmore.\"\nThere was nothing by which It may\nbe known why he did not go higher\nthan the 7142 feet which his barograph\nshowed he had attained, but he apparently encountered at that height the\nsame conflicting air currents-that finally overcame him. Notwithstanding\nthis and with the same reckless daring\nhe has displayed during last week, he\ndescended by a series of spiral glides,\nand was performing one of his thrilling\nrolling dips when bis bi-plane suddenly\ncapsized In midair and shot to earth.\nAeroplane Turns Sumersault.\nOver and over the aeroplane turned\nas It fell with a speed so swift that of\nall the thousands who saw' the tragedy\nnot one could tell wbat effort the aviator had made to save himself.

An iron upright broken by the force of the crash\nhad the aviator's body impaled upon its\nJagged point\nThe atop watches on the grand stand\nregistered the exact second of 2:12\no'clock when Hoxsey's machine turned\nover and plunged in Us fatal fall.

The year just past has seen\nthe organization and beginning of immense undertakings which the present\nyear will find in full swing. In the district surrounding Nelson and throughout\nthe Kootenay, mining operations will\nbe carried on upon a much larger scale\nthan in 1910, and upon a .more sub*\natantial and assured basis than at any\nformer time. The fruit Industry is now\nwell established and orchards are coming into bearing that will bring in annually large sums of money from outside in payment for their product. Settlement will continue to come in though\nat a less rapid rate than might be expected were an adequate publicity campaign to 'be carried on.\nIn the Dominion at large the outlook\nla for continued prosperity and for the\nlargest influx of immigrants yet recorded, although last year saw 350,000 new\ncomers. Little else of an eventful nature is anticipated.\nIn Great Britain the Parliament bill,\ntaking away the veto power of the\nhouse of Lords, will with practical certainly be Introduced at an early date. In\nview ol the result of the recent election it is almost equally certain to be\nassented to by the house of Lords, itself. It is to he followed by a Home\nRule bill the nature of which is not\nwell known to the public and the fate\nof which can with difficulty he foretold. Probably it will be held up by\nthe Lords for two or three years and a\ngood deal may happen in that 'time.\nOther projected measures are the disestablishment and disendowment of\nthe Church of England in Wales, an education act, a Scottish land act, and\nmeasures providing for insurance\nagainst unemployment. Tariff reform,\nthough standing aside for the time be-\nins, is evidently steadily gaining\nstrength, and will probably he victorious\nbefore many years have passed. Something like rivalry in the construction\nof naval armaments still continues between Britain and Germany, and this is\na dangerous condition of affairs which\nmay at any time lead to serious trouble.\n1110\n1910 is a date that will (be remembered In history. It witnessed (the establishment of a republic in Portugal,\nof parliamentary government in Persia,\nand of something like constitutional\ngovernment in China, An absolute despotism Is now nowhere to be found In\nthe world in any country of importance.\nwo Important general elections took\nplace In Great Britain, in the first a\nmajority was returned In favor of the\nLloyd George .budget, and In the second\na majority in favor of the abolition of\nthe veto power of the House of Lords.\nA signal incident of the latter election\nwas the declaration of Mr. Balfour in\nfavor of the introduction of the referendum. The house of Lords had already\npassed resolutions providing that hereditary right should no longer constitute a title to a seat in that chamber.\nIn the United States the new tariff\ncame in force. It nearly led to a tariff\nwar .with Canada, but the Dominion government gave some trifling concessions\nwhich enabled the Washington authorities to withdraw from an untenable po-\n^\u25a0TSRlon. without too great a loss of prestige. The arrangement made wag followed by proposals from President Taft\nlooking to tariff reciprocity. The growth\nof the Insurgent movement and the victories of the Democrats at the polls\ntestified to general discontent with the\n\u2022policy of the Republican reavlaro. Mr.\nRoosevelt returned from Africa, several\nsensational occurrences marking his return trip. He was warmly welcomed\non his arrival In the United States but\nhia candidate was turned down in the\nNew York elections.\nIn the Dominion Sir Wilfrid toured'\nthe west after an absence of some fifteen or more years. Western Liberals\nto whom he had preached free trade\nwhen in opposition asked him why his\npledges had not been kept. In British\nColumbia he was given a striking reception, as Canadian premier, by Hon.\nMr. McBrlde. In Quebec, Mr. Bourassa\nrevived cler employed by air - Wilfrid when in opposition and even more\nrecently, and defeated the government\ncandidate In Drummond-Arthabaska.\nThe two Canadian -warships arrived, at\nHalifax and Esquimau.        \\\nBritish Columbia saw the passage ot\nthe Canadian Northern contract, and the\nbeginning of work on the railway, and\nthe forming of a number of larger companies for the development of her resources in various districts. Important\nlegislation was passed toy the newly\nelected house, and large sums were\nspent upon public works including the\ntransprovlnclal highway now definitely\ndecided upon. The University Commission reported in favor of Vancouver or\nits vicinity as the site of the provincial\nuniversity. A Btrlngent liquor act was*\nput Into force. The Scott Act was defeated in Prince Rupert and Chilllwack\nThere was a marked revival in mining\nin the Kootenay and most promising\ndevelopments in new districts.\nA number of distinguished men passed away. Among them were King Edward, Tolstoi, Mark Twain, Koch and\nHolman Hunt. Florence Nightingale\nand Mrs. Eddy also are gone. In the\nNelson burial ground Charles Ink and\nJohn Houston, two of the pioneers of\nthe city, were interred.\nEDITORIAL NOTES\nThere is to be no watered stock in the\nGranlte-Poorman company. The stock\nis offered at par and the promoters pay\nthat price for their shares the same as\nanyone else. There is no stock given for\npromotion services. This is a commendable method of financing, and one that\ngives additional reason for confidence\non the part of purchasers\nEarl Grey recently said that some of\nthe children in Ontario have no manners. This is true of some children\neverywhere\u2014even in Nelson\u2014even\namong those who have joined the\nY.M.C.A. as was indicated by an incident on New. Year's day. To call\nacross the road a gratuitous and ill-\nbred salutation is not, it may be pointed\nout, evidence of wit; H Ib evidence of\npoverty of wit and lack of manners.\nToo harsh a Judgment should not, however, be formed of those who figure on\nsuch an occasion; they probably mean no\nharm or offence; they know no better,\nthat Is all. But it is a pity that they\ndo not.\nTHI8 DATE IN HISTORY\nJanuary 2, 1911\n1782-John  Martin became    governor    of\n1783\u2014The QuakerB of Philadelphia emanci-\namounted   to M8,00O,587.\n1815-Flrst attack of the British upon\nNew  Orleans. - , \u201e\u201e\u201e\n1850-Peter H.

'i\u2014An! international railway commission with supervisory authority over thu railways operating between the United States and\nCaiada is assured. .Alter many months\nof negotiations between the govern-\nis of United States and Canada a\nconclusion was reached today which\nmeans that in the course of possibly\na few months regulatory authority \u25a0will\nhefextended over railways operating between tho two countries.\nLong Conference,\n'or several days Chairman Martin A.\napp of the interstate commerce commission and Hon. J. P.  Mabee, chief\nmissioner of railway commission of\niada, have been in conference as the\niresentatives of their governments on\nthe subject of the creation of an international railway    commission.       The\ncommissioners reached   an   agreement\nlast Wednesday.   Since that time they\n,ve been working out the details of\n|e report   Today Mr. Knapp and Judge\niabee called  at  the    department    of\nte and presented their joint report\nAs it Is a diplomatic matter the com-\nllBSioners were directed by the state\ndepartment not to make public at pres-\nit the result of their negotiations. The\nat of the report therefore Is not avail-\nlie.     It is known, however, that the\nimmissionera have agreed as to the\nvisability as  to the creation  of an.\ninternational railway commission which\nspall fiave supervisory authority over\ne railway lines doing an international\njusiness between   the two   countries.\nhis authority Is to extend to the regulation    of international    rates    both\night and passenger and by the ev-\n[rclse of the powers conferred upon it,\ne international commission may pre-\n:ribe through routes and joint rates\nind through bills of lading   between\ntints in one country to points in anther.   The commission have authority\nver all   international    transportation\nid may be appealed to by shippers and\nfarriers in each country for relief from\nfeat they may deem oppressive moth-\nIs or regulations or excessive   or un-\nlonable rates.     The principal subject under discussion by the designated\niresentatives of the two governments\n'is the method by which the commis-\niton should he created.   It finally was\nleclded to recommend that the arrange-\nent between the two countries should\nconcluded by treaty rather than by\nit legislation.\nSubmitted to Senate,\nthe natal* <* things   it will be\nbe negotiated submitted to the United\nStates senate. No serious difficulty in\nthat regard is anticipated. The report\nof the commissioners having been submitted to tbe two governments arrangements immediately will be concluded\nbetween them for a treaty In consonance with the terms of tho report.\nOnce this treaty is arranged, it will be\nsubmitted to the senate. The creation\nof an international commission will\nmean the unification of the railways of\nthe United States and Canada so far\nas government supervision'of rates and\nregulations are concerned and will ensure to all carriers and shippers doing\nan international business impartial\ntreatment.\nWRECKED  BY  DYNAMITE\nKANSAS CITY, Jan. 1\u2014Dynamiters\ntonight wrecked the rear end of Walter\nVan Stone's furnace and sheet metal\nworks.
