During the Eastward movement of this disturbance the pressure has generally decreased since Saturday noon in the Eastern section, accom- panied by much warmer weather; with only partial cloudiness, except at tbe more Northerly points, and with light to moderate air movement from the Southwest and West. Light showers occurred over the Northern portion of the upper lakes, and thunderstorms, were general over Northern Michigan during the night. Showers Jiavealso occurred in the Upper Mississippi valley, and over the Eastern slope of the Rockies, but were scattered apd mostly light. It) it slightly cooler in the North- west this morning.

Today eleven aviators made the same flight in a matter of fact sort of way and with such ease and precision that the hour's procession over the channel was almost lacking in inter- est. . • ' '•' .. ' ' Not only did these liters cross the channel, but most of them continued to Hendon, six miles North of Lon- don, completing a trip of SKI miles from Calais. The aviators who thus added them- selves to the channel Myers' roll were Vedrine, Vidart, Kimmerling, Con- neau,. (Hying under the name of Beau raont), Valentine, Garros, Renaux, Train, Glbert,.Tabuteau and Ban a. They wero competing In the seventh stage of the European circuit race. Vedilne was first to cross the channel, arriving at Dover at 4:39. For the next hour, there was an arrival, either at Dover or some point on the Eng- lish coast, every few minutes. Renaux crossed with a passenger. Gibert made the speediest trip over the churning stretch of water; 37 min- utes and 57 seconds, The distance was about 24 miles. There was a special prize for this feat. Vedrine was also first at Hendon. This makes four of the seven stages that he has won. An enormous crowd greeted the flyers at Hendon, Grahame White be ing the first to congratulate them. The (lights were so lacking in inci- dents and were of such railway travel accuracy,that the crowd's enthusiast soon expended Itself. Emile Train, whose machine struck and killed War Minister Berteaux, at the start of the Paris-Madrid race, was forced to descend at New Haven, between Shoreham and Dover owing to mechanical trouble. For the same reason Gibert had to alight near Dorking and Barra and Renaux near Eastbourne. None of the mishaps was at all ser- ious. All except these four reached Hendon. Prevost was the only flyer at Calais who did not cross the channel. An injury to his machine prevented him from makiug the flight.

Eleven Aeroplanes in ProcessionAcross the English Channel—Vedrine Leads—Most of ThemReach London — Prevost theOnly One Failing to CrossChannel
LONDON, July :|,—Two years aguthis month, when Louis Bleriot madethe Orst trans-channel aeroplane ttigbtthe whole world gasped In amaze-ment.
Today eleven aviators made thesame flight in a matter of fact sort ofway and with such ease and precisionthat the hour's procession over thechannel was almost lacking in inter-est. . • ' '•' .. ' '
Not only did these liters cross thechannel, but most of them continuedto Hendon, six miles North of Lon-don, completing a trip of SKI milesfrom Calais.
The aviators who thus added them-selves to the channel Myers' roll wereVedrine, Vidart, Kimmerling, Con-neau,. (Hying under the name of Beauraont), Valentine, Garros, Renaux,Train, Glbert,.Tabuteau and Ban a.
They wero competing In the seventhstage of the European circuit race.Vedilne was first to cross the channel,arriving at Dover at 4:39. For thenext hour, there was an arrival, eitherat Dover or some point on the Eng-lish coast, every few minutes.
Renaux crossed with a passenger.Gibert made the speediest trip overthe churning stretch of water; 37 min-utes and 57 seconds, The distancewas about 24 miles. There was aspecial prize for this feat.
Vedrine was also first at Hendon.This makes four of the seven stagesthat he has won.
An enormous crowd greeted theflyers at Hendon, Grahame White being the first to congratulate them.The (lights were so lacking in inci-dents and were of such railway travelaccuracy,that the crowd's enthusiastsoon expended Itself.
Emile Train, whose machine struckand killed War Minister Berteaux,at the start of the Paris-Madridrace, was forced to descend at NewHaven, between Shoreham and Doverowing to mechanical trouble. Forthe same reason Gibert had to alightnear Dorking and Barra and Renauxnear Eastbourne.
None of the mishaps was at all ser-ious. All except these four reachedHendon.
Prevost was the only flyer at Calaiswho did not cross the channel. Aninjury to his machine prevented himfrom makiug the flight.

FRIENDS SPOILT E
OSWEGO YOUNG WOMAN HEROINK OF ROMANCE
CANASTOTA.IX
An Oswego young woman, LeanoreAnderson Mathon, daughter of Mr.and Mrs. Theophilus Anderson of No.:n John street, Is the heroine of apretty romance that culminated lastThursday evening at Canastota in hermarriage to Mr.Wlllard W.Patterson.
The bride Is a stenographer a grad-uate of a local school and on January1 accepted a position with the Marvin& Casler company of Canastota. Twoweeks later Mr. Patterson enteredthe firm's employ as a draftsman.The young people became acquaintedand friendship followed. Then Cupidtook a band and made It a romance.
The young people decided upona quiet marriage and Intended to keepthe matter a secret until Saturdaylast when they would start on a wed-ding tour.The ceremony was perform*ed Thursday evening by the Rev. T.S. FJynu at St. Agatha's rectory andit had been the Intention of the brideand groom to return to work Fridayas If nothing had happened.
But "the best laid plans" of brideand groom often turn out like those of"mice and men" and so it happenedlast night. Every employe of theMarvin & Casler company was "wise"to the fact that Miss Mathon and Mr.Patterson paid an early evening visitto the office of Town Clerk Travis,andsoon they were equally "wise" to theapproaching trip to St. Agatha's rec-tory.
Accordingly, like a veritable swarmof bees, the Marvin & Casler men boredown on the rectory. When the bridalparty emerged, the waiting machinistsdid some more swarming, this timewith the happy but slightly uncom-fortable groom as their particular ob-ject. Mr. Patterson was picked up.put into a little push cart and givenone very rapid ride up through Peter-boro street to the Hotel Weaver. Atthe Weaver there was a brief gather-ing and then the groom was hurriedback to the side of'his anxious bride.
Albert E. Upson of Syracuse, awarm friend of the groom and former-ly an employe of the Marvin & Caslercompany, and Miss Anna Cane of Syr-acuse were the attendants of the brideand groom last night. After theMarvin & Casler men had released thethankful bridegroom they took hisbest man in charge and tbe youngman from Syracuse was given a ridethat equaled in every respect thatgiven the groom.
Mr. and Mrs. Patterson will occu-py rooms in Spencer street duringthe summer. Mr. Patterson will con-tinue as draughtsman and, until Sep-tember 1st, his bride will remain ather notes and typewriter.
