THIS ONE A SUCCESS.
A Flying Machine Which Flew
Launched In North Carolina.

Norfolk, Va, Dec. ia success
full trial of flying machine was made
yesterday near Kittyhawk. N. c., by
Wilbur and Orville Wright, of Day
ton, Ohio. The machine flew for 3
miles in the face of wind blowing
at a registered velocity of 21 miles
an hour and then gracefully descend
ed to the earth at a spot selected
by the man in the navigator's car
as a suitable landing place. The ma
chine has no balloon attachment, but
gets its force from propellers working
by small engine.
Preparatory to its flight the ma
chine was placed upon a platform
near Kittyhawk. This platform was
built on a high sandhill, and when all
was in readiness the fastenings to
the machine were released and IL
started down an incline.
The navigator, Wilbur Wright. then
started small gasoline engine which
worked the propellers. When the end
OF the incline was reached the ma
chine gradually rose until II attained
an altitude of so feet. In the face OF
the strong wind blowing IL maintain
ed an even speed Of eight miles an
hour.
The idea of the box-kite has been
adhered to in the basic formation of
tne flying machine.
A huge framework OF light timbers
S3 feet wide. feet deep and feet
across the top forms the machine
proper. This is covered with tough,
but light canvas. In the center is
the navigator's car and suspended just
below the bottom plane is a small
gasoline engine which furnishes the
motive power for the propelling and
elevating wheels. There are two six
blade propellers, one arranged just
below the frame so as to exert an up
ward force when in motion and the
other extends horizontally to the rear
from the center Of the car, furnishing
a forward impetus. Protruding from
the center OF the car is a huge fan.
shaped rudder OF canvass, stretched
upon a frame Of wood. This rudder
is controlled by the navigator and
may be moved to each side. raised or
lowered.

from Germany came the news that
on the MarienfeldZossen Military
road an electric car made a speed Of
over one hundred and twenty-five
miles an hour. The news came with
the statement that even higher rec
ords were expected, an expectation
which was realized a few days later
in the highest record yet obtained
one hundred and thirty and two-ffths
miles an hour Though this record
stands at the present time OF writing
II is not at all unlikely that before
this appears in print a new one may
be established. The engineers of the
above road have declared one hundred
and fifty miles per hour as their goal.
In light of previous results, its con.
summation is not incredible.

Thomas Dixon, Jr., on Backbone


Thomas Dixon, Jr., delivered his
lecture on Backbone" at City hall,
last evening. Briefly-a more attentive
audience never gathered to listen to
a more original and brilliant man. In
the words of an admirer. he is "A
splendid product of this young ano
vigorous age, a type unto himself
Patrons of the lecture course and
people generally had been told that
Mr.. Dixon was a pleasing and talented
speaker; that he was a perfect master
of the art of oratory and that his dra-
matte, Talmage-like abandonment
held his listeners as in a spell--but the
Hallowell audience was surprised al
though they can but feel, today, that
an orator of the highest and purest
type stood before them, last evening.
His manner and matter is unique
and cannot be reproduced.
Backbone is a study of the founda-
tons of Anglo Saxon character and
from the beginning of the lecture
there was no doubt but that Mr.. Dixon
had something to say on the subject
and that he meant to say it.
He is the author of 1.-THE Leopard's
Spots" and is native of North Caro-
lima. He is a man of incessant and ex-
haustless activity and has more en-
gagements than he can fill.
