the San Bruno road 1t was then going
rapidly toward San Jose, but something
went wrong with the machinery, which

meet the resistance of a strong wind.
The giving way of small valve caused

Eye witnesses of the descent said the
airship came down gradually and touched

the cage to step out. Nothing was in
jured, either in the car or about the
great gas bag. The distance covered was
about six miles.
