Tho Theory of Professor weliner's Sail
Wheel Flying Machine.
The essence of Professor Wellner's in.
novation is his invention of the sail
wheel It consists of horizontally
placed axis with spokes and arched
aeroplanos attached to them in cylin.
drical form. While revolving round the
axis the latter take slightly slanting
position, which causes the forward edges
Of these surfaces to be inclined, and con-
sequently to compress the air in the way
Of sail or kite, calling into play the
vertical force Three ribs running across
each lifting surface and made in the
form of screw at the same time serve
to strengthen the aeroplanes and to add
to the horizontal force.
These sail wheels set I'm pairs can be
placed, according to the size Of airship
aimed at, in one or more groups of two
wheels, revolving in opposite directions,
behind or beside each other. The cigar
shaped car, furnished with motor and
carrying the aeronauts, is attached hori-
zontally under the center of the wheels,
SO that the whole construction will re-

stead Of by wings. by revolving wheels
the lifting surfaces Of which arc con-
secutively and constantly developing
vertical and horizontal power. The
birds movements in flying and the
speedy headway motion necessary to the
kite flying machines for their support
in the air are in Professor Wellner's in.
vention changed to rotary motion.
This construction, while permitting Of
an easy, Glow ascent, assures tho hori-
zontal position and constant stability of
the airship, at the same time permitting
Of high velocity.
The more the latter is increased the
stronger is the lifting power developed.
The direction is given by rudder at the
end of the ship or by increasing the
velocity Of the sail wheels on one side
only. It is the peculiar quality of these
wheels that they do not, as might be
supposed, disperse the air around them.

Report for the Week of the Weather Bu-
 reau at Washington.
 WASHINGTON, May 29.-The weather bureau, in its review on crop condi. tions for the week ended May P, says: Upon the whole, the weather condi. tions for the week have been unfavor- able. Farm work has been retarded in the gulf, middle and south Atlantic states from excessive rains, while crops greatly need rain from the Ohio valley westward.
 Complaints as to the unfavorable ef- fleets of the unseasonably low tempera- ture upon crops is general throughout the middle, central and southern DOT. tions of the coNntry. Replanting of corn has been general during the week, owing to damaging effects of the re. cent frosts. In Indiana most of the crop had to be replanted Kansas re. ports corn doing well. and in Nebraska early planted corn is in good condition
 Winter wheat is reported as in good condition in northern Illinois, but as in poor condition in the central and southern portions of the state. The condition of wheat has declined rapid. ly in Missouri, owing to drought and insects In Indiana some wheat has been plowed and planted in corn and the crop as sustained further injury from frost in Ohio,

WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW.
A Substantial Increase in the Commercial
 Demand Reported,


 NEW YORK, June l.-R. c. Dun's Weekly Review of Trade says: More far-reaching than any other change during the past week, if really war ranted by facts, is the continued rise in prices of wheat and cotton. Real scar city of either would affect all business Happily, there is still room to hope that accounts of injury are greatly exagger- ated, although there has been some evi- dence during the week that both the great crops have suffered more than at first appeared, Other changes are almost all favorable and some highly encouraging, labor troubles are clearly less threatening, monetary conditions are satisfactory, and the substantial increase in the commercial demand is good sign. Exchanges through the clearing houses have been greatly inflated by speculation, and at his time last year were cut down by the coal strike, and toward the end of May, 1893, greatly reduced by bank failures, but for the week exceed last years by l9 per cent, and fall only 5.6 per cent. below those of 1893, while the daily average for May is 26.9 per cent. larger chan last year, but 7.1 less than in 1893.
 Wheatis largely supported by public buying, and the purchasing orders from farming regions are supposed to indicate an opinion of the yield. Yet wheat comes forward freely, as it would not at current prices if a short crop were assured, and western re- ceipts for the month have been 5,944,- 574 bushels, against 5,525,s5 last year. Nor do Atlantic exports reflect in- creased haste to buy abroad, amount ing in four weeks flour included) to 6, ls3, APO bushels, against 0,7l6,O97 last year.
 The failures during he past week have been 2l5, against 1S3 last year.

OHIO REPUBLICANS.
The State Convention at zanesvlris P,

The State Convention at Zanesviiie Pre- sided Over by Senator sherman-9sn. Bushnell Nominated for Governor.
 EVANSVILLE, O., May 20.-At the Ohio state republican convention Senator John Sherman was made chairman. He first spoke for harmony for the good of the party in the state and na. tion, and declared that Ohio republic. anism was the corner stone of the na. tional edifice. Then he declared for a sound national currency, always re. deemable in coin.
 At the close of Senator Sherman's speech and preliminary routine work, the convention took . recess Upon reassem bling the temporary organiza. tion was made permanent The can. didates presented to the convention for governor were: J. Warren Keller, J. II. Hoyt, George K. Nash, Robert NJ Nevin, A. L. Harris and E. w. Poe. Gen. Bushnell's name was not present. ed. Five unsuccessful ballots were taken, and upon the sixth ballot Gen. Asa $. Bushnell, of Springfield, was declared the nominee, the vote stand ing Bushnell, 509; Nash, 2O1; Hoyt, II.
 The platform reaffirms adherence to the principles of the republican party as defined by the national convention in 1892, chief among which are: A pro- tective tariff, reel F-ocity and flair cleo tions. On the financial. question it de- clares for Honest money, consisting of gold, silver and paper, every dollar as good as any other dollar and all backed by the national faith and honor Favors bimetallism and demands the use of both gold and silver as standard money, either in accordance with ratio to be fixed by an international agreement, if that can be obtained, or under such such restrictions and such provisions to be determined by such legislation as will secure the maintenance of the parity of values of the two metals, so that the purchasing and debt paying power of the dollar, whether of silver, gold or paper, shall be at all times equal. It indorses Foraker for sem ator and Mckinley for president.

anu Ovor 16O Lives LOst.
 SAN FRANCISCO, May 3O.-The Pa. citic Mail steamship Colima, with 192 persons on board, including passen. gers and crew, foundered off the coast of Mexico on Monday. Fourteen pas sengers and five members of the crew reached Manzanillo, Mex, yesterday, and gave the first information of the vessels fate.
 The Colima sailed from San Fran cisco May Is for Panama and way ports with l12 passengers, forty in the cabin and thirty-six whites and forty six Chinese in the steerage. The otii. cers and crew numbered 70.
 Later Details.
 SAN FRANCISCO, May 31.-As further particulars are being received concern. ing the Colima disaster, the outlook for the passengers and crew not al. ready reported saved is very poor. The Pacific Mail, shortly before o'clock last night, received the following from it's agent at Manzanillo: 'Co. lima foundered, going down astern, sinking entirely in ten minutes No strong wind, only heavy swell. Tho same swell caught Mexican schoon- CTS Josefinna, Albinna and American schooner Hayes. Captains of these schooners report swells only, entering here for safety" A later dispatch reads: "Colima sunk in l30 fathoms. Steamer we sent last night found nobody alive. Three cabin passengers and two sailors got ashore at Coahua- yana alive. Until now twenty-six per sons saved"
 The Pacific Mail officials now admit that there is hardly any chance of other passengers being saved The fact that the steamer sank in ten min- utes would indicate that only few of the people on board the steamship got away. At 10 o'clock last night the Pacific Mail Steamship Co. received the following telegram from it's agent at Manzanillo: Having received news that the people can be saved near the mouth of river 50 miles south of here, steamer has been sent with per- sonnel of this agency. Will write fur ther particulars. The Colima cannot be afloat again. She is total loss"
 A telegram from Colima, Mex, re- ported that special messenger had arrived there from Manzanillo yester- day with official information for the governor of Colima regarding the Colima steamship disaster off Manzau- illo, and made it practically certain that l62 lives were lost when the vessel went down as was feared Wednesday.

 The young man considers himself g man of resources, although he is not as sure about it now as he was few days ago. He has been very attentive to a certain young lady, and he was calling on her at the time that he partially lost confidence in his resourceful mind.
 It is unnecessary to narrate what passed between them upon the occa- sion in question, but at the time that the young lady's sister entered the room he was in the act of folding the young lady to his manly bosom. Of course he desisted at once, as young men generally do under such circum' stances, but he was not embarrassed.
 The young lady's sister sad Excuse me-" and started to leave the room, when his resourceful mind began vo work. He felt that he ought to say something, and say it right away.
