While not exactly surprised, for Man
ager Wright has not been altogether
unable to decipher little pieces OF the
writing on the wall as the hand pro-
crossed, yet he was certainly unprepar-
ed for such sudden action, as not the
slightest direct intimation had been
given him that such a step was even
contemplated.
1t has been known for some time that
the officials were dissatisfied with the
standing Of the club during the past
season. They had fully expected to
win the championship, and while the
team was out West on its last Western
trip Colonel Rogers sent Manager
Wright a telegram saying that he would
hold the manager personally responsible
for third place.
The Philies finished fourth, and
Yesterdays action Of the prOprieters
may probably be the outcome OF that,
Manager Wright, when seen last night,
said: II have no complaint TO find. l
was not under contract with the club,
and the officials, of course, had a per-
feet right TO do as they pleased. 1t
will come hard for me TO leave Phila-
delphia, where l have so many friend,
and which has been my home so many
years.
yesterdays action was not exactly a
surprise to me, for | have felt for a long
time that this vas my last year with
the team. In fact when / babe good
bye to the players at the close OF the
season | told them that IL would be no
surprise TO me If | was not manager OF
the club next year.
'They wanted to win the champion
shin this year, and 1 still think that but
for the Illness of Hamilton and the in
turing OF certain other players at crit
jcal stages Of the race We should have
finished in first place."
MANAGER wRIGHT's CAREER.
or course Mr.. Wright has not made
any arrangements for next season. He
has been at the head Of the Phlladel-
uhia club since 1853, and is, perhaps,
the most widely-known man In base
ball circles.
The past season was his tweDty-sixth
consecutive season Of active connection
with professional base ball. He first
came into prominence as a member OF
the famous Cincinnati Red Stocking
team in 1865, which ia 1869 gave TO pro-
fessional base ball the impetus which
made it soon after become the national
game.
Ia 1871 he became manager Of the
Boston Club, OF the old National Asso-
citation, and each season from 1872 TO
1875 inclusive his team won the pen
nant. In 1877 and 1873 the Boston
team, under his management, were
again champions. After eleven years
service with Boston, he was for two
years manager of the Providence team,
and in 1854 became manager OF the
Philadelphia Club.
Neither Colonel Rogers nor President
Reach could be seen last night, but Mr..
Wright said that it had been intimated
to him that they would try the expert
ment OF a captain-manager next year,
and that Secretary ShettsliDe would
hereafter look after the finances.

This order is one of ancient date. IL

AERIAL NAVIGATION.
THE PROBLEM SOLVED By A BERLIN ScIES-
fist.
The New Flying Machine Has Wings Like a
Bats, and the Inventor Put /; to a
Tss, Reaching 1000 Feet in
the Air-Is Raddsr Is
Like a Birds
Tail.

The problem OF flying has been solved,
it is claimed, by a rich scientist In Ber-
lin. Otto Lillienthal, who, undismayed
by the failures Of the hundreds who
have preceded him In the same line OF
effort, has experimental until he can
now claim, apparently with some rea'
son, to have achieved success.
The Lillienthal theory is that birds
do not exercise great power In flying,
but keep afoat in the air by the par
ticular way in which they manipulate
tleir wings. Reasoning upon these
lines, a flying machine has been con
structed upon q variety OF angles, de-
signed to catch the air in whatever
direction it nay come, or from what
ever quarter.

ever quarter

The affair is built in almost exact
imitation OF the wings OF a bat; the
delicate ribs and body are made OF will
low wood, which is tough but light; the
wings are covered with light sheeting,
and when spread they have n circum-
ference OF twenty square yards. The
entire apparatus weighs forty pounds.
LillienthaI began his trials with the
new flying machine from the summit
OF a turret which rises forty feet from
abe ground. Adjusting the wings as
blown In the accompanying illustration,
ind seating himself upon the skeleton
sody Of the mechanism, which, unfor-
tunately, must be imagined 10 the
drawing, as the artist has considered
it so exceedingly frail as to make it In
distiguishable, the inventor pushed
himself off from the tower top into
space, as one would push away a boat
from the bank. Working the wings
with little effort, the man fiuttered
through the air, finally reaching a
height Of 200 feet above the surface,
and then descended safely.
After this experiment, which salts
Utu ulHl Vi Lue DIdCllCdOlllNI VI hiS
theory, Mr.. L|illienthal resolved TO
gradually increase the altitude, and for
this purpose he went TO the steep hill
OF Rhinower, near Rathenow, which
rises to an abrupt height OF 500 feet, its
side being a stony cliff almost perpen-
cicular. On the too Of this hill he built
a small tower, making the entire dis
tancp from the Level 350 feet.
Then he adjusted his flying apparatus
and leaped off. Upon his first trial he
sank perhaps fifty feet, and then COM
menced to rise again until he had
reached 1000 feet, and then gradually
floated down, alighting gently upon
the road.
Repeating his experiments for sever
al days he eventually reached such per-
lection that he was able TO stand still IN
air without moving the wings. He
also Travelled In circles, steering him
self by the appliance which will be notl-
ced in the sketch as a semi-circular
attachment, doing the same duty as a
ruddder as that done by the tail Of a
bird.
To a moderate degree Mr.. Lillienthal
appears now to have accomplished the
aerial movements Of the bird, and II
only remains to be seen whether he can
sufficiently perfect his system to rise
to great heights, or to remain aloft
with the same endurance as do the
creatures designed by nature for that
purpose.
The scientists description Of the SEN
sation while sailing through the air is
certainly attractive. He says that the
feeling Of motion is entirely lost, so
easy and free from fatigue is II. The
absence also Of n stationary objects,
which would indicate movement in the
human being. gives the sensation that
the earth, instead Of the mat himself,
is in motion.
