II heard George Ball tell his story up
in Stetson the other nignt,- said the man
who sat on the arm of the seat, and who
sells groceries. and though | can't tell
it as well as George did, I'll give you the
substance. IT was about a minister up
that way who had lost good and loyal
old parishioner under curious circuE-
stances.
THE minister used to call for the old
lady-the parishioner aforesaid, and give
her a lift along to church. One Sunday
when the minister drove up the old lady
wasn't quite ready.
I've got to change my dress and feed

power CT boilers and engines.
In order to cut the present time OF
little less than six days from Queens
town to New York down to three days,
marine architects mus abandon the
present style Of engines and radically
change the form Of the vessels hulls.
In view of the millions of dollars in
vested in the North Atlantic frelght
and passenger steamers 1t is hard 70
see how the companies can do this.
The latest advice from the Continent,
however, gives some hope that this may
be accomplished without change OF the
present type of vessels or motive
power.
The French and German army offlcer9
and engineering corps havS for a num-
Der of years been experimenting with
different types Of airsh:r5 ard balloons,
their object being to get a balloon or
airs,hip that would sust2in a double
weight and be perfectly manageable in
any kind Of weather. They have been
more or less successful, but recent
German invention--the details of which
have been kept secret-has mere nearly
succeeded than any of the others.
This airship consists Of an albumin
ated balloon, filled with very light gas
and carrying car containing gas en-
gines and motors, and has succeeded in
going against the wind at remarkably
swift pace. 1t has been found perfectly
manageable. and apparently there il
nothing to be desired 1t s. understood
that negotiations for the manufacture oil
a series Of large machines Of this type
have been opened with a prominent
transatlantic line Of passenger and
freight steamers, the idea being that by
using ore or more of these airships and
having them connected with passenger
steamer by set tow-lines. they can Sc
stssist in speed as to render the passage
acres the Atlantic in three days ex-
tremely probable.
