grand prize Of 100000.
W. M Morris, Monte Vista, COL. min
ing engineer, is one of the contestants.
Fills machine will be thirty feet in diameter
and $50 feet long when fully rugged. Alu-

construction, but no gas bag will be used,
as in other flying machines.
E. A. Kinder, a Denver (Col.) man, has
completed model for an airship and con-
Quoted satisfactory test. He will enter
1t in the contest for the 100000 prize at
the fair. Safety appliances are feature
of the airship. Canvas flaps three feet
wide extend entirely around the balloon,
as on Stevens airship. These are limp
except in case Of sudden descent, when
they open out like umbrellas or para
