Red Cross Christmas Stamps.
The small sale of stamps was a great
disappointment, only 16,812 being sold. Of
this number 30 per cent of the sales
went to the National and Texas branch
of the Rod Gross. Fortunately, the ex-
pense In putting them on sale In Ml Paso
was small. Miss A. M. Bearhope, for-
mer superintendent Houghton County
(Mlch.t Anii-Tubercuiosls work, took
charge of the work, maintaining a booth
in the post office and placing the stamps
on sale in the stores. Her services were
donated. The press was most generous
in keeping the Christmas stamp before
the public, and Calisher’s never failed to
mention the stamps in their advertise-
lHcnls. Thanks are due to the press and
the merchants for their Interest in this
campaign.
C. A. Kinne, secretary of the Cham-
ber of Commerce, will officiate at a
busine8s men’s luncheon Thursday
noon or forfeit a large bond. The sec-
retary has been making repeated ef-
ferta to that end for a number of
weeks past, but each time some no-
toward event has interfered. Ac
rangements all complete,) with a ca-
terer to serve the* luncheon In the
basement of the Chamber of Com-
merce building came to naught by
reason of the caterer doimrting unex-
pectedly from the e|t> without leav-
ing his address.
But the luncheon is now assured
and will take place-as per schedule
at the Angelos cafe Vimrsday at noon.
Notice to that effect was mailed to
the four or five hundred members of
the organization yesterday. As a spe-
cial inducement the secretary an-
nounces that It will he an old-fash
ioned chicken dinner "As far as
jtossible the luncheon will be featured
In eats and talks, thus nourishing
both body and mind.” is
wording of the notice.
It Is the intention of the organiza-
tion tt> make the Thursday luncheons
a regular weekly Inatltutlon for sev-
eral months to come.

Discover Widespread
Revolutionary Conspiracy
Police of Portugal's Capital Make
Startling Discovery in Con-
nection With Arrests.
Lisbon, Jan. 11.—In connection of
the firing by sentries upon a group
of men who were prowling around
Necessldadea palace two night ago
and the arrest of a number of Repub-
licans. the police announced today
they have discovered a widespread
revolutionary conspiracy. Additional
arrests have been made of supposed
ringleaders. The police have seized
large quantities of explosives, arms,
masks and complete disguises.
Several have confessed that they
are members of secret societies band-
ed together In a plot to overturn the
government. Their exact plans have
not been revealed but the Lisbon
newspapers declare that these in-
cluded the assassination of King Man-
uel.
The plot was unearthed as a se-
quence of the murder at Cascades,
not far from Lisbon, of one of the
revolutionists who while attempting j
to steal a quantity of cartridges at
the customs house, which were in-
Untied for the revolutionists, was
stricken by his‘ fellow conspirators on
the ground of treachery.

these there would apply an increase
tariff rate of 25 per cent.
On the other hand America shipped
to Germany, our second best custo-
mer among nation#, no less than $300.-
000.000 worth of products. Many of
these will have to pay increased rates
after February 7. But in 1908 $29,000
000 worth of American wheat enter-
ed Germany and this must pay a pen-
alty of two marks for each hundred
kilograms this years which would
probably result in the transfer of ail
of this trade to Argentine, Canada
aud Russia.
Corn was Shipped to Germany to
the value of $5,000,000 in 1908 and the
Increased duly that will be exacted
on this staple will be three marks
per hundred ^Ingrams, practically a
prohibitive rate! Ninety million dol-
lars worth of cotton formed part of
the exports to Germany in the same
year and while this Is at present on
the German free list It might still be
subjected to a heavy duty if the
Gorman government should have re
course to Its ’fighting tariff."
Other Costly Export*.
Half a million dollars worth tof
American apples and four times that
amount of dried frulis will have to
pav an excess of between four anti
ten marks duty. Failing an arnica
ble arrangement between the two gov
erhments, $6,000,000 worth of sawed
lumber will puy double duty and
great number of other American pro
ducts will suffer in like proportion
On the whole the effect upon Ameri-
can export trade will he far greatei
than in the case of,the abrogation ot
the French reciprocity agreement
Only a small number of- America!1
products' were concerned in that, while
Lie German tariff covers the whoh
range of imports.

Relieve* His A**i*t»nt.
After an abortive attempt by Mis
carol, one Of the French aviators
Paulhan took it and sped twice around
the field, although he never rose high
er than 50 feet from the ground. Sev-
eral times great sighs of apprehension,
mingled with the shrieks of frightened
women rose from the crowd as the
tinv machine, tossed by fierce gusts
of wind, rolled and careened In the
air. Every moment seemed to
fraught with such danger that, when
the flight was safely over and the
monoplane had landed far across the
field, an Immense sigh of relief went
up from the vast crowd. Apparently
secure in his renewed role of star of
the meeting, Paulhan. rrankly delight-
ed by the tremendous applause bis
performance evoked, brought out his
Farman and quickly disappeared from
the view of the spectators far to the
northward, reappearing twenty sec-
onds later at an altitude over tin
trees of a contiguous ranch and (lew
back directly over the grandstand,
Curtis* Sawed Wood.
Several times Paulhan flew across
lots or changed directly upon the
crowded grandstand only to turn
sharply when within a few feet of
and sweep gracefully along hefore the
thousands of spectators. . His flight

12’ seconds.
Curtiss all the while remained silent
nnd at work. Clad In oil-spotted
working clothes, nil old cap and shoes
that had seen heavy duty, he spent
his time tuning up the eight cylinder
motnr on the biplane with which he
won tlte International cup at Rheims.
Not once did he look nt, what Paulhan
was doing In the air. Rut when the
fourth (light of Paulhan had ended,
his mechanicians trundled the ma-
chine to the starting point. Without
preliminary of nny sort he motioned
to Faticullli to get in the machine.
Climbing in beside his manager,
Curtiss gave the word to one or his
assistants. A pop and rattle like auto-
matic artillery and the flight that es-
tablished the passenger speed record
began. Describing a wide circle in
front of the grandstand, Curtiss flew
with his passenger at all angles to
the wind and landed almost nt the
same spot from which he started.
Paulhan Witched Perform*nce.
Lieut. Paul Beck of the array signal
corps and one or the judges announced
he figured the speed at 55 miles an
hour. When the record breaking fig-
ures were announced, the tremendous
crowd went wild. Shonts and screams
rose from the boxes and tiers of seats,
auto sirens shrieked and hatB were
thrown Into the air tn he blown away
by the wind.
Paulhan, standing by his biplane on
the other side of the field, saw the t
performance through binoculars. These
he dropped suddenly and gesticulating ;
as he rattled off Instructions to his;
crew of mechanicians, made them race
to get liis motor started Immediately.
Then he mounted his seat and rose
majestically. At the same time Wil-
lard and Hamilton brought their ma-
chines to the start in front of the
grandstand. Directly alter they got
into the air, Curtiss took Clifford Har-
mon, t|ie New York sportsman and
balloonrtft, into the seat beside him
and rose on another flight with a pas
senger.
Thrilling Sight.
All four aeroplanes In the air at
once presented a thrilling sight that
sent the crowd into renewed frenzy.

Paulhan landed in a few minutes of tll<> fum|„ of (he Mercantile Xa-
and, determined to regain some of his
lost laurels, ordered one of his assist-
ants into the seat with him. Then he
arose and twice circled the course, his
great biplane soaring as gracefully
with tbe extra man as it had done
with Paulhan alone.
Two Record* Secured.
In quick succession Curtiss tried for
a starting record and a record for
landing. He succeeded in cstabllsh-
tional bank of this city, of which ho
was president. Heinze was indiettd
for the same offense following ther
panic of 1967, but the bills were quash-
ed when Judge Hough sustained de-
murrers. Ileltizc promises to make i
light greater even than that of Morse

move to have the indictment quashed.

lent the millionaire sportsman his ma-, gan a race with the wind at their
chine though, without giving any inti-' backs. Knabenshue, higher by 50 feet
mation of his intention, he fixed it so j than Beachy, won tho race hy two
chief could do. Curtiss, however, set
a new record for getting away to make
up for the landing honor he lost. He
started from a marked square of 1.0
feet flew about the field two minutes
und returning landed exactly In the
same spot,
Paulhan tried to beat both marks
but the best he eotild do was rise 12 1-2
seconds from the time his engine
started and his machine ran more than

roao.
Harmon Go** Up.
The trip with Curtiss was the first
flight Harmon ever made iu an aero-
that it could not rise from fl)e ground.
This was done at the request of Com-
modore C. C. Benedict of New York
who, yesterday,, offered Harmon the
price of ton aeroplanes if he would
not go up. Willlard's coup prevented
lengths when the course of 1,000 feet
had been covered.
