TO FLY TO NEW YORK.
Whitehead Certain That His Airship
Can Make the Trip.

| BRIDGEPORT. Conn. Aug 22.-Gustav
| Whitehead. the flying machine inventor
| OF TINS city, who one night a week ago
Is SAID To have flown a distance of half
a mile in his machine at height of hfty
! rect. said today that his next flight Will
| consist OF a trip to New York City and
| return. For this purpose he is having n
new machine built on his premises The
| only difference in the two he says, is
that the new one will be built stronger
and large enough to carry half a dozen
persons.
During the latter part of the week
Whitehead is having his present machine
| to Atlantic city, n. j.. where he intends
to exhibit it publicly There is a PhiIa-
delphia gentleman interested in White
head who has asked him to bring the
machine with him to that place. He will
not divulge his name
The machine with which he has been
experimenting is roughly made and crude
In appearance, but its inventor says that
its machinery is perfect. 1t looks just
like a ship with wings instead of sails
The body resembles that of a schooner's
hull, while the wings are bat-like. White
head says that the plans upon which NJ
Santos-Dumont, the Brazilian aeronaut. is
and that his own experience has shown it.
He says further that he is satisfied his
machine is a success and that he has now
passed from the experimental stage He
says NJ. Santos umont and other inven-
tors will learn, sooner or later, that their
Inventions are too heavy. AS to his pro-
posed flight to New York City, Whitehead
says:
Since the feat of my half mile flight
was published have been besieged by
friends and have received many letters
from tnquisitive people all over the
country They asked me many questions
concerning my machine and its flight
For instance, one man wanted to know
why, if | Travelled half mile successfully.
l did not continue. In reply | said that
it was dark night and | did not care
tic get outside of my bounds, as 1 was
not familiar with the locality | saw a
good opportunity to descend in a lot,
which ! did, without the slightest acct
dent. Besides. | know that if my air !
ship went all right for half mile that |
1t can go miles just as we'll
When l get this other one built. l |
think / can nave some fun with certain /
people. ] am as firmly convinced that / |
can go to New York and return in it as |
am that L can ride a bicycle In my
last flight the machine was devoid of its |
steering apparatus. which l was not
aware of until l had assembled in it. My
airship can be steered by rudder or hav-
ing one of the prooellers revoIve faster

Does the typewriter affect literary
style? A writer in the Boston Transcript
thinks it does. He says: "As general
thing the typewriter produces sort Of
staccato, disconnected, jerky style; to
change the metaphor, a fleshless and
bony style, and awkward withal. What
the ease and expressiveness that the
same authors handwriting might have
possessed. The special word -by-word
planning that gees with it, be 1t ever so
Slight and even unconscious, does get In
the way Of free expression; and there Is
a tendency in the writer to think out his
use stereotyped expressions, which fall
i'm more conveniently with ones prac-
tise." 1t might require generations, he
adds, for typew writing to become instinc-
tive with civilized people as handwrit-
ing is.
