until the close Of the struggle. At
Black River, on the march from Allan
ia to the sea, Confederate was sent
under flag of truce to Sherman's head
quarters. Arriving, he found the gener-
al absent, but young Thomas was there
and inclined to be communicative when
taken upon the knee of the Confederate.
Drawn into conversation, he bluntly
remarked, "Why, father can whip you
fellows every time" On being interro-
gated us to how and why he could whip
them, the boy proceeded to give detail
ed information. Father has 50,OOO
men and so many cannon, just so many
foot and so many horse soldiers He has
just exactly so many men, foot and
horse, and so many cannon at another
place. " The boy did not neglect to state
that the northern troops were well off
for provisions and how and where they
could get them when they wanted them.
General Sherman after the Confeder-
ate's departure learned of the CONVEX
sation. why" said he, "you Young
traitor! There is nothing for it but that
you must be court martialed, and YOU

not shot, but he was told of the rules

MEOHaN FLIGHT.
Wonderful Performance of Professor
Langley's Aerodroma.

Wonderful Performance of Professo,
Lsngley's Aerodrome.
WASHINGTON, May 12.-The first pub.
lie statement regarding the fl ying ma
chine experiments conducted by Prof.
Samuel p. Langley, for some months
past, was made to-day with the author
lily of Professor Langley.
Professor Langley has always been
very guarded about the experiments
and the account of his latest attem pts
with the flying machine embodied in
the following statement, prepared by
Prof. Alex. Graham Bell, the WE'LL
known inventor. published with the
sanction OF Professor Langley. there
fore will be OF great interest to the
scientific world generally:
Last Wednesday,, May 6, witnessed
very remarkable experiment with
Prof. LanRley's aerodrome on the Po-
tomac river. Indeed, it seemed to me
that tho experiment was OF such his
torical importance that IL should be
made public. l should not feel az lib.
erty to give an accouns of oil tho de-
tails, but the main facts 1 have Prof
Lsngley's consent for giving you and
t5ey are as follows:
The aerodrome or flying machine, in
question. WIS of steel, driven by q stnam
engine IL resombled an enormous bird,
soaring in tho air with extreme regu-
larity in large curves. weeping steadily
upward in spiral path, the spirnls
with diameter of perhaps leo yards.
until 1t reached height of about 100
feet in the air at tho end OF o course of
about half mile.
Then the steam gave out, the pro-
'pellers which hsd moved 1t stopped and
to my further surprise the whole, in
etead OF tumbling down, settled SO
slowly and gracefully ss it is possible
for any bird to do. touched The water
without any damage ard wss immedi.
ately picked GU. ind ready to be tried
again.
"A second trial was like the first, ex-
cept tha. the n schine went in different
direction, moving in one continuous
gentle atcsns as It swung around In
circles like great soaring bird At
one time it seemed 10 be in danger, as
Its course carried It ever q neigh boring
prcmontory, but apprehension was i'm
mcdiately allayed, as IL passed twenty
five or tL.rty foe. above the tops OF the
highest trees there.
Ascending SILL further, its steam
finally gave out again and IL settled into
the waters OF the river, not quite
quarter OF mile from the point at
which 1t arose. No one could have wit
messed these experiments without be-
Ing convinced that the practicsbility
of mechanical flight had been demon
strated. ALEX GRAHAM BELL
