ABOUT FLYING MACHINES.
An Expert Says that They Will Never
Be Propelled by Balloons.

Hiram s. Maxim gave a most in
teresting account OF his Expert
ments in Aeronautics" at the Society
OF Arts Wednesday. He said he had
soon found that a balloon in any
form was out of the question for the
propulsion OF hying-machine,
which ought at least to be able to
travel at the rate OF thirty We miles
an hour. At that speed small aero
plane lifts more for its weight than
balloon, and requires much less to
propel it. Mr.. Maxim laid down a
light railway track from which to
drive his machine into the air. AZ
ter many experiments he found that
a well-made aeroplane could carry
as much as 1873 pounds to the horse
power. As the efficiency of the ma
chine depends on its rigidity, it is
not easy to make large aeroplane,
but Mr.. Maxim succeeded In con-
structing a machine, the framework
OF which consisted OF strong, thin
steel tubes stayed with strong steel
wires. There was a fore and aft
rudder, both connected with the
same windlass. At first the large
machine would not carry twenty
eight pounds per horse power, but
the inventor has no doubt that it
will soon be able to carry even 100
pounds. With only fifty pounds
machine could travel between 500
and 600 miles, and Mr.. Maxim thinks
it possible, says the London Satur-
day Review, to maintain speed OF
100 miles an hour. When the ma
chine is perfectly developed, a
moderately level field will serve as
well as a railway track. The aerial
navigator, when he reaches his des-
tination, will touch the ground
while moving forward, and the ma
chine will stop after sliding on the
ground for a short distance. What
remains for Mr.. Maxim to do is to
study and develop the art OF navi-
eating the machine.

MAR WINS CHAPEL.

AS it has been some time since we
have noticed anything in the Herald
and Tribune for this valley, we thought
probably a few items might be OF inter
est to some of the readers. Sabbath
School is in a fiourishing condition: our
belief is that the people around this
place are earnest workersin the church,
they have a sufficient quantity of grace
to do their duty. For our prayer meet
ing we think we have the most inter-
esting prayer meeting at this place
every Wednesday night of any church
in this wide world. Those that think
we are boasting let them attend and
see for themselves. Brother Wampler
will preach here next Sunday, the
18th, at a II o'clock, all attend that
wants to hear a good sermon, for he is
the kind that breaches them. We won
der what has become of Beatrice. Jas.
Briggs, of North Carolina, was visiting
relatives near here last week. 1t was
a curiosity to see those ladies and gents
playing croquet at the Misses Garst's
Saturday evening. Miss Mamie Susong
is rather early about putting up her
Martin box, but Miss Avra Jones is
thinking of erecting II soon. We
think we can report a wedding soon if
Mrs. 7. don't take q broom stick to
Davie. SUSAN AND MARIAN.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
ABSOLUTELY PURE
Steam Mill,

To the patrons of the steam mill: We
the proprietors wish to say to you that
from and after May, A, 1895, the steam
mill will only grind Friday and Satur-
day OF each week. The busy a
with farmers is here and grain is getting
scarce, and therefore we think this plan
is best. Remember we can grind from
fifty to seventy five bushels per day,
and by this plan we can grind in two
days all the grain that would come to
the mill in a week. By this plan we
can accommodate our many friends and
have some time to fill other obligations
that we have before us. The mill will
stay where it is until July I, then we
will thresh during the thresbing season.
The patronage of the mill has greatly
surpassed our expectation. Our main
object in setting up here was to accom-.
odate the people, and here is the story
in a nut shell. From Christmas to this
writing we have ground $500 bushels.
The mill has u every day but two
since Christmas, regardless of the cold
weather. Now remember from and
after May the 4th, the mill will only
run on Friday and Saturday of each
week. We will be there early and late
each of those days. We are respectful
ly yours, ONKs AND SLAGLE.

KEEBLER'S INSTITUTE

Alphus Keebler and son, Sam, are
preparing to erect a new house for Sam.
Bowser is doing the saving; Haws and
Archer have made the shingles, having
made over eight thousand out of one
oak tree. Wheat and winter oats looks
fine in this section. The recent warm
days made the grass and the trees have
a spring like appearance. Elijah Archer
met with a very serious accident on
last Monday while hauling; he got
upon the wagon and got tripped some
way and fell over the wagon, breaking
his left arm and putting his wrist out
of joint, and bruising his head and
face. DR.. Stuart was called and dress
ed his arm and he is doing very we'll.
The Archer and Droke saw mill is now
ready for business. Mrs. Lucinda Garst
is very poorly at this writing with grip.
The Sunday School at Keebler's Insti-
tute is in a flourishing condition; j. K.
Bales is superintendent. We think we
can report a wedding soon. Jas. H. d.
Bales has sold another piece of land to
G. II. Diehl. l. S. Bales has sold a
small piece of land 10 Jacob Dove. L.
S. Bales and Henry Douglass are pre-

BELLS SCHOOL no USE.

On last Sunday quite n large crowd
gathered at Bells school house for the
purpose of organizing a Sunday School.
The organization reminded one of a
modern political primary election, be-
cause when the election OF Superin-
tendent vas commenced there being
more than o y candidate, election by
ballot was recommended; all prepared
ballots-only eighty being present,
but when the votes were counted there
were 1877 votes; so you see corrupt vot.
ing has got into the Sunday schools lat
this place as well as in politics. This
place has been on a boom for the last
few days, in the line of weddings.
James Spain was married to Miss Mar
tina Lee, and Noah Griffith to Miss EN-
ma Carr. These weddings were quite q
surprise to the community. The grooms
were fortunate in winning the fair ones
in the midst of so much rivalry. May
happiness be theirs. Rev Spencer Tun.
nell, pastor of the Jonesboro Baptist
Church, preached a very able sermon
in Antioch Church on last Saturday.

MAY DAY.

The recent warm days have done
much to bring out grass. We think
spring surely is here, as we can hear
the unromantic plowman swearing elo-
quently at the mules, 1t seemed last
Sunday that March broke loose in all
his fury, demolishing fences, trees and
outbuildings to a great extent. A good
many of our people are attending Judge
Campbell's revival this week, that they
may prepare for his future judgments.
Our old friend, Alfred Estep, had a PIC.

objects to il as the ears are too large.
Miss Willie Kyker, a charming young
lady of Conkling, spent Sunday with
Miss Matte Brown near here, returning
home the same day. E. E, Wilson went
up to johnson City Thursday to have
his eyes examined by DR.. Peavler, of
Bristol. Jeff Wilson, who has been
confined to his room for some time, is
slowly convalescing and we trust that
he may soon be able to be out again.
w. NJ. Ray went up to Unicoi County
last week to sell his farm, but owing to
a deficiency of filth lucre ON the part
of the buyer he failed to complete the
same. Embree Brown, of B~roylesville,

We would advise Jim that you carry

next time. Rev. Cadle will preach at
Mayberry, Saturday at 1920 o'clock;
let everybody come and give him a
large audience. Sid Blair, who has
been in the West for some years, re.
turned home a few days since; we no.
tice that the old saying is true, there is
