WE'LL FLY THROUGH THE AIR.
That IL What Sir Hiram Maxim Pre-
diets VIII lie Done Inside of
Next Ten Years

Sir Hiram Maxim says the day of
the practical flying machine is not
more than ten years on. In a
signed article he declares himself as
follows:
with the improvements now
made, II becomes a relatively easy
matter to construct a flying ma
chine, and feel sure that such ma
chimes will make their appearance
and become a part Of the military
armament of the nation inside of
the next ten years. Experiments
with flying machines are enormous
ly expensive; in fact, the expense is
too great to be borne by single in
diyidual of moderate means.
81 think we can truly say, with
Lord Rayleigh. that flying machines
are only question of lot of time
and a lot Of money; and at the
present time | am saving my pennies
in order To enable me to have an
other bite at the same old cherry"

During the coming ~ months the
picturesque driver boy and the pa
tient mine mule will be gradually
superseded at the anthracite mine by
the unsentimental but useful and eff
fcient compressed air locomotive.
The machine which will displace the
boy and the mule has been sought
for during many years. and the
operators have at last found it. A
test has been made by the Philadel-
phia and Reading Coal company, and
has been so satisfactory that the
company is now preparing to place
the compressed air locomotives in
all it's mines, and retire from serv-
ice the 5000 mules now used to pull
the cars in and out OF the workings.
Other companies are watching the
experiment with great interest, and.
as it promises to prove economical
and efficient, the engines will doubt
less be placed In all the other mines
within a short time. Some years
ago the electric motor promised to
oust the mule and the boy, but
while they are still In use at some
Of the mines they are not so sue
cessfm as TO be generally adopted,
says the New York Tribune.
The passing OF the mule and the
boy will mark change in mining
which has been anticipated for
years. with other big improvements,
but It will deprive the mines Of one
of their most interesting features.
The boys are In class by them
selves, differing from boys employed
in any other work. They are a dar-
ing. reckless lot. most Of them be
tween i6 and ~ years old, In con
-stant danger, brave. leading a rough,
strenuous life, which makes them
self-reliant at an unusually early
age.
The big mules which they control
are as different from the average
mule AS their drivers differ from the
average boy. Kept In the mine for
years at n time, without sight Of
sky, sniff Of fresh air or taste Of
green grass they live life apart;
solitary and desolate. often develop.
ing a nciousness which makes them
as dangerous rs the fall OF roof
which constantly threatens the lives
OF the mine workers.
Many a hardy youngster has been
brought out OF the mine maimed or
dead. and the report has set oppo-
site his name the words: kicked
by a mule" In the course Of n year
the deaths from mule kicks amount
TO about so. while the mules which
are killed In revenge are unnum-
bered. The animals are often Sc
verely ill-treated. Their tongues
have been pulled out, cars have been
allowed to run into them and crush
them against the side Of working,

MORE GR0CERS SUFFER
BURGLARIES ON BLOOMINGTON
In One Place Burglars Smashed u
Costly Cash Register
From Spite.

Burglars have been at work on Bloom
ington avenue during the past week.
Wednesday night or Thursday morning
they forced their way into the grocery
store of Charles G.. Lutzie, 2449 Blooming
ton and visited all parts of the store,
searching for money and leaving devasta-
tion in their track. They first pried open
the cash register but finding only 10 cents
in it evidently became angered and gave
vent to their feelings by smashing the 5000
machine to pieces. Two blocks farther
down the avenue, at Johnson Nelson's
store, 1904, they cut out panel in the
rear door, broke the chain but were I'M
able to lift the heavy bolt which barred
the door. Abandoning further effort
there, they called at the grocery store
OF John Malvich, 2413 Bloomington ave-
nue. In effecting an entrance to this
place they overcame number of obsta-
cles, but the game was hardly worth the
candle, for they failed to find any money
in the till and had to console themselves
with cigars and tobacco. They first
forced open the basement door. Passing
through the cellar they had to break open
another door at the foot of the stairway
and still a third before they could get
into the store. They ransacked every
thing, overturning barrels and boxes and
scattering goods about the floor. So far
as the proprietor could ascertain only a
small quantity of smoking and chewing
tobacco was taken
Thieves used crowbar and pried open
window in the rear of the grocery store
at 919 Nicollet avenue, John Cameron,
proprietor, last night. They entered and
ransacked the store, breaking open the
money drawers, but found no money. Thev
carried off two cases of canned goods and
a quantity Of maple sugar. The maraud-
ers also entered a sewing machine store
next door but did not secure any property.

The contributions received from repre-

showing than has been in prospect up to
date.
