Langley Has Machine
He Thinks Will Fly

Washington, July l3.-Prcparations
have been completed for taking the
flying machine constructed by Profess
sOr 5. Z. Langley, secretary OF the
Smithsonian Institution down the
Potomac river for its initial trial tests.
II Is understood that the start will be
made tomorrow morning
The flying machine Is about sixty
feet in length and apparently OF great
stability. II is built Of steel and
brass and under Langley's direct su.
pcryision. 1t will carry a passenger
and the stcersman.
The machine is driven by a gasoline
motor and is capable Of furnishing its
own motive power when in the air.
The central pOrtion-the backbone Of
the whole airship and principal fea.
ture of the nventiOn-consists of a
Cigarshaped cylinder made of brass.
apparently. and sharp pointed at both
ends. To this cylinder various parts
.oI the motor are fastened. Langley's
reluctance to disclose anything con.
corning his invention and the precau.
tons taken to keep II from pryins
eyes preclude anything like a detailed
description.
The airship accepted for the final
test was built at cost of more than
10000. Of which 100000 was appro.
priated by Congress. Langley is said
to haze spent more than $4,000 of his
own means on the invention. The
greatest difficulty in the way of sue.
cess has been removed by the utiliZa-
ton OF a gasoline motor light enough
for the purpose. This motor is of %
horsepower. The elimination of
weight 10 so large an extent has con.
WINGED Professor Langley that he has
solved the problem Of devising mo.
tor sufficiently light to be borne easily
through the air on the frail structure
Of the aeroplane proper. Work on
this motor has monOpolizcd Langley's
spare hours continuously since 1896,
when his first machine, a small model,
was tested.

Lorry's cell was as comfortable as 4
cell could be made through the efforts
of a kindly Tailor and Il sympathetic
chief OF police. 1t was not located in
the dungeon, but high in the tower, a
little rock bound room, with a single
barred window far above the floor.
There was a bed Of iron, upon which
had been placed a clean mattress, and
there was little chair. The next day
after his arrest comfortable arm

lamp, some books, flowers. bottle Of
wine and some fruit found their way

have sent them. Harry Anguish was
admitted to the cell during the after
noon.
He reported that most of the AK
phain contingent was still in town. A
portion had hurried home, carrying the
news to the old prince, instructed by
the aggressive Mlzrox to fetch him
forthwith to Edelwe!ss, where his au-
gust presence was necessary before the

the prisoner, sent sincere expressions
of sympathy and the hope that all
would end well with him.

form of a guard. Not a word had been
spoken. The prisoner was the guard,

Are you not afraid this will cost you
your life?" asked Lorry. first In Eng
llsh, then In German. The guard mere
ly shook his head. indicating that he
could not understand.

With a grim smile the captive nodded
his head toward the revolver, the Ian
tern and the keys. His obliging prison
err secured them, as well as his own
personal effects, and was ready to de-
part. According to instructions, lie
was to go forth, locking the doors be-
hind him, leaving the man to be dis
covered the next morning by surprised
keepers. II struck him that there was
something absurd in this part OF the
plan. How was this guard to explain
his position with absolutely no sign OF
a struggle to bear him out? 1t was
hardly plausible that big, strong fell
low could be so easily oyerpowered
single handed. There was something
wretchedly incongruous about the-but
there came a startling and effective
end to all criticism.
The guard. bound as he was, sudden
ly turned and lunged headforemost

struck with a thud and he rolled to
the floor as II dead. Uttering an eXcla-
nation of horror, Lorry ran to his side.
Blood was gushing from q long cash

unconscious. Sickened by the brave
sacrifice, he picked the man up and
placed him on the bed. A hasty exam
ination proved that Il was no more
than scalp wound and that death was
too remote to be feared. The guard
had done his part nobly. and 1t was
now the prisoners turn to act as reso-
lutely and as unfinchingly Sorry to
leave the poor fellow in what seemed
an inhuman manner he strobe into the
corridor, closed and locked the doors
clumsily and began the descent Of the
stairs. He had been instructed to ac,
unhesitatingly, as the slightest show OF
nervousness would result in discovery.

his abode in Cheyenne. Under the re-
cent act Of congress regarding the or
ganization of state militia it provides
for the appointment of twenty retire |
regular army officers who will accept
detail duty with the National Guard of
