Another Plan for Aerial Navigation.

Another Plan for Aerial Navigation.
From the Philadelphia Post.
A flying machine has not yet been per.
iected, though many ingenious plans have
been tried. The latest attempt to make
a machine which can be sustained in the
air for n long period, and moved in any
direction at the will of the operator, has
been made by Philadelphia mechanic,
who has been experimenting for four
years. We were present at u private ex-
hibition of the model Wednesday.
The model embraces q cigarshaped
balloon, twelve feet long by six in diane
ter, and the car and machinery are slls-
pended. A copper globe, one foot in
diameter, is filled with compressed air,
communicating through n hollow rod
with small engine which drives three
paddles on each side. When the
compressed air is liberated the pad.
dies are driven at any degree of
velocity, and can propel the machine
at speed OF eight miles an hour. The
paddles can be depressed and raised, and
thus act us the steering apparatus. The
success OF the model was astonishing.
The flying machine moved majesticaliy
through the air, sometimes in u circle Of
the room, sometimes in a straight line,
and again revolving on an imaginary
pivot, instantly obeying the touch Of the
operator.
Mr.. Judson claims for this machine
that, unlike the balloon, it does not re.
quire expenditure OF ballast TO rise or the
loss of gas to descend. After initiation
the float is untouched, and the paddles
can run 1t either up or down at an angle
OF thirty degrees.
1t is the intention of Mr.. Judson to
build larger model Tor exhibition in one
of our large halls. All the profits thence
derived are 10 be strictly applied to the
construction of II large real flying ma.
chine, strong enough to carry u man, and
MIR. Judson is hopeful that if the public
sustains him-why the machine will sns.
tain him also.
