vehicle of the clouds from Europe across
the Atlantic before next umme
Four days is the time scheduled for the
trip across the ocean and as the scien-
lists who have examined and tested his
apparatus have pronounced 1t perfect it
is quite possible that the count may not
have over-estimated the value of his in
yention.
Whatever the result may be, however.
there is no doubt that the problem of
aerial navigation is rapidly approaching
solution. So confident are the French
scientists hat such an invention is a
possibility that the government has al
ready spent nearly $400, 900 in the
agement of the investigators, believing
that the value of such a contrivance in
time of war would be invaluable to the
nation possessing the secret. 4
Other countries have made similar con-
tributions and recently the United States
stepped to the front and made an appro-
priation of $25, 600 to enable Professor
Laagler Of the Smithsonian Institute to
pursue his Investigations along these
lines. .
The Scheffelin machine of Germany
really flies. 1t has wings and a windmill
attachment which keeps it in the air.
Professor Langley is confident that the
time for the appearance of the SUCCESSFUL
airship is near at hand and as his ropln-
ions are based on long investigation Of
this subject none but the most hardened
pessimist would dare to contradict nm.
The subject. however. is such a stupen-
dous one, with it's revolution in transport
tation that would render railroads ana
steamboats, obsolete. overthrow the mill
tary and naval systems of the world. ana
solve all the mysteries Of the uneXplored
parts of the earth, that those VINO persist
in remaining in the ranks of the douptlng
Tborases may be pardoned for their lack
of faith.

PRIVATE MARKS.

There was a crowd around the counter
of a down town jewelry store where
watches are received for repair. "A "o-
man who was evidently in a hurry, mace
her way to the place where the mar with
the magnifying glass stood, ana hahueu d
sNill YOU please tell me what ails this
watch?" she asked.
The watch doctor opened the case de-
liberately, peered into the WORKS, ana
said: ct needs cleaning
MY. That seems strange. SAID the
woman. you cleaned it only a few
months ago -,
as that 500" said the man.. and opened
the case once more and made another
examination with the aid of a miniature
microscope. Then he landed the watch
back and said: I'VE cleaned this watch
in December, 1896, and it has no been IN
our hands since that time 4.
lis that so 1 must be mistaken, but
how do you know when it was cleaned
last?"
The man explained hat it was no trick
of memory, but simply the result of a
system. whenever a watch is brought
to u.s. he said, "to be cleaned, regulated,
repaired or fixed up we put a tag on it
which is numbered to correspond with a
number in our work book. In the book
we record the style and make Of the
watch, the owner, what repairs are to be
made, and the mount charged for the
work, and when the finishes the
job he puts the same number in micro
scopic figures on the edge of the inner
| case. A letter or sign also shows what
| has been lone to the watch. SO, you see,
when a watch comes here, we look for a
mark of that kind, and when we find 1t

been within such limitations that the
ships have not been regarded as of prac-
ticable use. The recent successful trip
of Mr.. P~ercival Spencer and his compan-
ion across the English channel has given
a new phase to the subject and II Count
Zeppelin will but keep his promise to
cross the ocean in his directible balloon
this spring, there can be no further ques-
ton as to the solution Of the problem
that has puzzled science for so many
centuries.
Mr.. Percival Spencer is one of the most
distinguished a%eronauts in England and
he has long been at work perfectlng the
steering apparatus that he has now used
so successfully. His balloon is steered by
means of a sail and the manipulation OF
a trail rope. AS a balloon floats on the
wind a sail attached to it would not de-
fleet it from it's course unless it was sup
piled with some means of resisting the
wind, comparable in one sense to the
kedge of a boat. This resisting kedge is
furnished by the trail rope, which drags
lightly along the ground after the bal

DUMAS OUTCOME.

1t is a proof of the high degree of elab-
Grafton to which fiction, literature in
China has been carried that most of their
novels are thickly interspersed with
poems of all orders of merit.
No stronger evidence could be afforded
Of the fact that whatever they lack it is
not literary finish. If anything, they
have this in excess.
These poems are introduced in a va
riety of ways. The hero sends one in a
billet-doux to the heroine, or he over
hears her singing one, or perhaps a poetic
contest is struck up, the fine on defeat
being generally the compulsory drinking
of so many extra flagons of wine.
Wine drinking and versification almost
invariably go together in Chinese novels,

loon, and which enables the sail to play
the usual part of such c~ontrivances in
vehicles where friction exists, or, in other
words, the trail rope enables the balloon,
with the wind behind it, to travel in an
angle to the direction of the wind.
If Mr.. Spencer has actually succeeded
in making a dirigible balloon hat is cap
able of being propelled against the wind
he has accomplished as wonderful an
achievement as that of DR.. K. I. Dani-
lewsky of Charkov, Russia, who has al
so proved that i is possible to make a
machine that al ascend to any height
and that can be directed in its course.
The limitations to DR.. Danilewsky's in
vention, however, as we'll as of Mr.. Spen-
GERS, is that the airship is largely depen-
dent upon the elements. Either can di-

he said: THAT happens many times
every day. We have the most fun with
the people who say, You guaranteed this
watch for a year when you repaired it,
and here it is out of order again. The
glass usually reveals the fact that the
watch vas due to break months, and
sometimes years ago." - -, ia
All watchmakerS keep records and
mark the watches which are placed with
them for repairs. but no two have the
same system. Some makers mark the
watch with the name of the workman,
and a record number after it; some mark
the date and the workman's initial on
the case, and others have signs in con-
junction with these designations to, show
just what work has been done on the
timepiece.
This system Of marking n recording
watches is of much service to the, police

the history OF these experiments is the
history of a series of great failures and

matter when he says that no machine

the toy of Penaud's, invented some TWEEN

learn, flown for even ten seconds
Professor Langley, of course, dlscrim-

he has succeeded in making a machine

Resolved, That understanding something

Order of Good Templars in Maine, during
the long service of Hon. George E. Brackett
of Belfast as Grand Secretary, knowing how
earnestly he is continuing that work at the
present time, assisted by his able and effi-
cient Grand Assistant Secretary, Mrs. E. l..
Brackett, regretting also the persistent
efforts which are being made in many sec
tions to underrate his services and elect
another to his position, and believing that
the success of these efforts would prove a
misfortune to the Order, we instruct the
representatives of their District Lodge to
use their utmost endeavors to secure his re-
election and do hereby assure him OF our
continued, loyal and loving support.
