Mrs. La Follette addressed 1,000 colored people at the Twelfth street branch of the T.

SI. C. A. on Sunday afternoon and her address was repeatedly halted by the cheers of her audience. She was introduced by Neval Thomas, and at an "expression meeting" afterward Mrs.

La Follette was thanked by hundreds of people. "I see no reason why we will eat food prepared by colored cooks, have them nurse our babies, and live In Intimate relation with them in this way, and then object to them sitting beside us in the street cars and workrooms," she said. "If you own your own conveyance you can invite whom you choose to ride with you, but on a public car and In other public places all lines of distinction and cast must be disregarded, and rich and poor, employer and employe, and white and black must ride together. civil service is a department of the Government, and it is a shame that a government should put its stamp of approval upon such unjust measures against a struggling people. There are 1LO0O colored civil service employes In the Government, and they won their places on their merits.

"I have not completed my Investigation." said the major today. "Of course. If an officer were disrespectful to a Senator or any one else, he would be properly disciplined." It is said the conversation between the desk sergeant and Senator La Follette related to a minor automobile accident, in which a machine of a make similar to that used by the Senator collided with a bicyclist.

WRIGHT STABILIZER GREATLY REFINED Aviator Believes He Has Improved Machine Until It Is Now "Fool Proof." Increase Is Reported In Outputs of Gold Increased outputs of sold in the mines of California, Oregon, and Washington are shown In a report made public today by the Geological Survey. The estimates for 1913 Indicate an output or gold in California valued at iZ0.Ol3.Zlt, and 1,606,261 ounces of sliver. Oregon's gold yield nearly doubled this vear. reaching a total of 1.39S.SS. Tho total value of the metal mine output of Washington In 1913 was more than $1,000,000.

Of this amount the gold output contributed $691,000. Ohio, Jan. Wright, the aviator, has several surprises In store for the people Interested In air traffic, according to late reports from his factory, where he is dally working" on several new inventions. 'By tho perfection of the aero-boat, or hydro-aeroplanc, Wright has brought forward, for both commercial and pleasure use, one of the unique mechanical devices of the century. Mr.

Wright says: "We have Invented an automatic stability device which will revolutionize flight. It ls more accurate than any aviator can De, ana wiu maK3 nyinff fool-proof, or as nearly fool-proof as anything can ba. I have flown many miles with It, nnd have never touched the controls. "We are now simplifying it, and expect to be able to -bring It to the point where It may ba put In general use by early spring. "Wo hope to see the day when it will bs Just as safe to board an aeroplane and take a long trip as It Is to make a Journey behind a locomotive.

The stability device will go a long way toward making this dream a. reality. Our device insures lateral as well as fore and aft stability, it depends partly on electricity." Discussing the future of the aeroplane. Mr. Wright said: "The aeroplane will be used for commercial purposes, especially as a means ot speeuy transportation over vast distances.

Over waste places and deserts the aeroplane will be used In fact, wherever water is not available. Malls will bo so carried, doubtless over large stretches of territory. In Texas. Utah, nnd New Mexico. Automatic stability Is all that is -needed to make It wholly practical, and I believe we have solved tho problem." Experiments with the Wright aero- Doai.

a product or the Wright plant, have been made on the Miami river, south of the city, and these have proved the new Invention's worth In every respect. This was Illustrated on the last day of December. 1313. when Mr. Wright, before a committee of the Aero Club of America, at SImms Station, near Dayton, demonstrated the reliability of the stabilizer.

So complete were the tests that the committee at once awarded him the Collier trophy, which goes each year to the person maklnr the greatest advance in aeronautics. In the course of the demonstration, Wright made several complete circuits of the aviation crnunri with hl tianrta entirely removed from the controlling uevicc.
