The United States flyers started in California and are following the course of the sun. The English flyers hopped off from England in an opposite direction by traveling east and meeting the sun. Both sides have already had considerable unlooked for trouble but they are in the race to stay and it will soon be a matter of history which of the cousins score the victory. Some of the more skeptical are of the opinion that, there may be a deadly aerial clash when the two teams meet, but there ought to be enough space between the the poles to pass-eacother without a collision.-- ' . The prize involved is the honor of winning. GETTING EVIDENCE. Senator: What is your name? Witness: John Doe. Senator: Ah, ha!
