1t is tremendous affair seventy-eight
feet in length and eighteen in great
est diameter. 1t will require $4,000 feet
of hydrogen gas to initiate the bag, but
when inflated it will have lifting
power of 1850 pounds.
This bag is cigar shaped as are all
the others now built for this purpose,
but it resembles none of them as the
points are much sharper
The forward end IS so constructed
that the point is somewhat above the
center, the top rounding to the point in
the usual manner. From the place on
the bottom where the bag should begin
to curve up to the point 1T slopes
straight and fiat instead, forming an
inclined triangular plane, the idea
being that this plane will tend to force
the ship upward.
An original contrivance has been
fitted to the front end of the bag to
keep it steady and taut when sailing
against the wind and to preserve its
lines when the bag is Debated.
An aluminium cone about two feet
deep is fitted and fastened over the
point Three bamboo poles clamp into
sockets in the after edge of this cone
and run back 4 number of feet, being
fastened at regular intervals to the net
Thus the sharp point is held in posi-
tion at all times -.tr

First Flight at Beach

The first fight will be attempted at
Playa del Rey as soon as the ship is
entirely ready for the air The only
thing which is delaying this flight at
present is the varnish on the gas bag,
which is of a special kind that takes
an unusually long time to harden. The
gas bag has already been shipped to
Playa del Rey and it is the intention
OF the inventors to take the frame and
motor down within day or two.
The Bullet is expected to carry sew
cral people with ease but on her trial
trips will be handled by Haddock as
captain and pilot and Trombly as en-
gineer.
The rudder used is of the type known
in water vessels as balanced" that is
a portion of'the blade is forward of the
rudder post. The rudder on the Bull
let is to be firmly fixed in socket.
Both the inventors have worked for
Captain Baldwin and feel that they
have an Improvement on the Arrow in
their Bullet. They are enthused with
the idea of aerial navigation and think
that they have the real article, but are
willing TO admit that after they get
the Bullet into the air they will see
theenecessity for changes and improve
ments.

FELL IN SCALDiNG TUB.
Terrible Accident at Wichita Packing
House.

| Wichita. Kan. Dec 2G.-Fred Kalk-
suffering from terrible burns on his
body as a result of falling into tank
of scalding hot water. He is a young
German laborer End was employed at
the scalding tub in the plant of the
John Cudahy Packing company in the
north part of the city.
His entire body is blistered mass.
The skin on his chest, limbs and the
soles of his feet peeled off when his
clothes were removed. ortunately
none of the hot water was taken into
his lungs and there were no internal
burns.
The scalding tub is large iron tank
about Is feet long and G feet wide. 1t
is feet in depth. The water in the
tub, which is kept hot by means OF
steam pipes, was feet deep.
The last hog had been killed and
Kalkorst was probing around on the
bottom of the tub with long pole. in
order to find any hogs which might
have sunk and been missed during the
( work.
( AS he leaned over the edge of the
tank his feet slipped on the greasy
floor and he plunged head first into
the scalding water.
If it had not been for the timely aid
of the men in the room the unfortun-
ate man would undoubtedly have been
cooked alive. AS it is, his entire body
is a mass of burns and he is suffering
untold agony as a result of his terrible
| eXnerience.

ABOUT THE UPRISING.
Secretary Taft Receives Message
From Governor Wright.

Washington, Dec. %. Secretary
Taft today received cable message
from Governor Wright at Manila in
response to his inquiry in regard to
the recent uprising of the Julajanes
Dolores, Samar.
Governor Wright's message is as
follows:
Manila, Dec. &c, 1904.
Secretary of War, Washington, D. G.
with reference to your telegram
of the 21st inst, regret to say that
General COrbin's report of an attack
on and loss of detachments Of scouts
at Oras and Deloras is correct. Pula-
janas have of late left the west and
north sides of Samar and become ac-
tive on the cast coast, which is prac-
tically without harbor and very diff
cult of access during the prevalence
of the existing monsoon.
"Orders were given sometime since
to strengthen all attachments on the
east coast, but unfortunately this was
delayed by the wreck and loss Of
coast guard boat carrying hundred
or more of the constabulary. The men
were saved but the delay in sending
another coast guard boat to the res
cue resulted in leaving these small de-
tachments at Oras and Dolores isolat-
ed and the consequent loss. All east
coast stations have been heavily re-
inforced and we are still sending men
in by my direction. General Allen
(chief of constabulary), left here
(Manila) two weeks since to take per-
sonal charge of affairs in Samar. |
am still further reinforcing him with
'constabulary, and am consulting with
General Corbin. who, if necessary,
will aid us with troops.

SURVEYORS ARE BUSY.
They Are Locating important Lines
in the Southwest.

Vinita, l. T., Dec. 2S. - The
surveyors who are making a pre-
liminary survey of the Missouri,
Oklahoma C Gulf railroad, are now
located near Pryor Creek, I. 7. These
surveyors are locating the new rail-
road about four miles east of the town
of Prior Creek. This is the line that
! is to be built from Muskogee, |. T., up
Grand river to Joplin, Mo.
The survey of the line of railroad
from ChetOpa, Kan. to Tulsa, |. T..
is almost completed. This road is to
be known as the Kansas City, Tulsa
& Southwestern. This line passes
through a good country and is said
to have easy grades all the way from
Chetopa, Kan, to Tulsa, l. T.
1t is believed in this country that
both of these lines are Missouri Pa
cific propositions. The Kansas City.
Tulsa & Southwestern is intended
for feeder to three lines of the Mis-
souri, Pacific; at Chetopa it connects
with the Missouri Pacific and be-
tween Tulsa and Chetopa it crosses
the Iron Mountain road. Missouri
Pacific line, and at Wichita Falls,
Tex, it is to connect with the Texas
Pacific. On the north it will be pro-
ected to Joplin, where the Missouri
Pacific will have headquarters for its
Southwestern division. The Okla
homa C Cherokee Central is now be-
ing surveyed from Dewey, I. r., by
way of Nowata, Chelsea and to Pryor
Creek, l. T., and passes through the
heart of the oil belt of the Cherokee
nation.

stoves, ETC., open free to the general
public, and special section devoted
to drugs and medical and surgical ap.
pliances to which medical men alone

from the rents paid by exhibitors will
be devoted to educational work, which
will take the form of local lectures.

KANSAS-COLORADO SUIT.
General Coleman asks Tor
an Appropriation Of $4,000.

Topeka, Dec. 27.-In his biennial re.
port, issued today, Attorney General
c. G. Coleman asks for an appropria-
tion Of $4,000 from the legislature
this winter to carry on the Kansas
Colorado water litigation. He reviews
what has been accomplished in the
case up to date and says:
"The evidence so far porduced has
shown that the interests involved are
vastly greater than has been hereto
fore supposed, even by those most ar
IDENTIFY supporting the prosecution Of
the case. 1t has been demonstrated
beyond question that since 1890 the
| ordinary flow of the river has been re-
duced about three-fourths, the width
of the ordinary stream more than one
half, and that the depth of the under.
flow below the surface, in the allu-
vial bottoms, has fallen from three to
seven feet, over the entire area of the
Arkansas bottoms from Carbon City
to Wichita, and in some localities dis
appeared; that in this vast territory,
by reason of this reduced moisture,
within the same length of time the
productiveness in staple products of
these fertile farms has been very
greatly impaired. 1t is the Judgment
of the counsel representing this state
that no case of greater importance to
so many citizens Of this state has at
any time been before the supreme
court of the United States. The i'm.
portance attributed to it by the state
of Colorado may be inferred from the
fact that at the same time our legis-
lature made its appropriation for the
purpose of prosecuting the case, that
of Colorado appropriated $4,000 for
defense, and the executive department
of that state has ever since been con-
Quoting farreaching Investigations
through experts specially employed.
81 have gone somewhat into detail
about this case for the purpose OF
making it apparent that it will be ne
cessary for the coming legislature to
provide with liberality for the further
prosecution of the case, if the advan-
tage thus far attained is to be follow
ed up. The appropriation made in
1903 was meager and inadequate.
believe you have expended it with the
utmost discretion. With the cXcep-
ton of the expenses OF the evidence
taken for defendant in December, all
expenses and fees to date have been
paid. But the fees paid to counsel
employed have not been commensur-
ate with the Importance OF the case,
the ability of counsel and the amount
of time which should be devoted to
proper handling of the case. l estl-
mate that at least $4,000 should be
appropriated to pay the expenses or
completing the evidence, printing the
abstract. paying additional counsel
fees. and the necessary incidental and
travelling expenses attending the prop
er preparation and presentation OF the
case. 1t is expected that the case can
be brought to a final adjudication
within the next eighteen months;
probably not sooner"

Submarine Passage Way Is The Only
One Of It's Kind In the World.
WORK HAS COST $4,000, 900
Took Four and One Half Years to
Build 1t. Many Difficult Engineer
ing Problems Had to be Solved.
Builders Make Use of Grounds.

Boston, Dec. 31.-The submarine
tunnel connecting Boston and East
Boston was opened for public travel
today. The dedication of the tunnel
to public use was carried out without
any formality.
Tho tunnel is double tracked IA
miles long, 1900 feet of which is I'M
der the harcor waters. The cost of
construction was 100000. The tun-
mel was built by the city of Boston
which has leased it for term of 25
years, dating from 1877 to the Boston
Elevated Railway company, which
will use the tunnel exclusively for the
passage of it's electric cars between
Boston and East Boston. About four
and one half years have been con-
sumed in constructing the tunnel, in
the accomplishment of which many
difficult engineering problems had to
be solved, chiefly on account of the
maze of underground pipes, sewers
and also because of the perilous ma
ture of the work of digging the large
passageway underneath the bed of the
Boston harbor. The tunnel is built
entirely of concrete and is the only
tunnel of that kind in the world. In
arranging for the stations the build
ers made use of historic ground, for
