Successful Airship.

Toledo, o., June 30.-One OF the
most remarkable flights ever made
in an airship was performed to-day
by A.. r. Knabenshue, who sailed
through the air a distance OF three
miles, landed On top OF q ten story
office building in twenty-five min.
utes from the time of starting and
then returned to the depot from
which he started.
The day was ideal for the daring
feat. A ligh: wind was blowing
from the east, and Knabenshue sail
ed his aereal craft directly in the
face Of this wind. Two days ago be
declared lie would sail down town
and alight on the top Of ten-story
building. Wheu he left the start
ing place he directed the ship
straeht to the city. When halt the
distance had been covered an upper
current Of air carried him up
several hundred feet, but the lavl-
gator did not lose control Of h1s ma
chine. When directly over the sky :
scraper Knuhenshue directed bis
craft directly downward and allght'
ed gracefully on the building. A
round of applause greeted the dar-
Ing navigator, who was less excited
than the spectators. After exam.
,nlng the ship to see that it was all
right and receiving the congratula.
tions OF bis friends, Knabenshue
started on his trip hack, and going
back with the wind he made the re-
turn voyage in fifteen minutes. He
declares that his present sl'ip is far
superior to others that he has navl-
gated; that it is easier managed, and
he has solved the problem OF aereal
navigation.

The announcement that il H0ch.
the Chicago wife murderer, can
raise the 500 necessary for the
costs OF the appeal, he may get a
new trial instead OF being hanged.
likewise makes one study bit over
the vagarles Of the law. II Hoch
is guilty, he should be hanged: if
lie is not, he should not be hanged
and this without regard to whether
he can raise 500 or not, It would
only be more unfortunate that an
innocent man should be hanged for
lack Of 500, than that a guilty man
should save bis life by the posses.

We Lay Us Down to Sleep.

We lay us down to sleep,
Aud leave to God the rest,
Whether to wake up and weep
And wake no more be best.
Whyvex our souls with care?
The grave is cool and low;
Have we found life So fair
That we should dread to go?
We've kissed Loves sweet red lips
And left them sweet and red.
The rose the wild bee sips
Blooms on when he Is dead.
Some faithful friends we've found,
Bnt they who love us best
When we are underground
Will laugh OH with the rest.
No task have we begun
But other hands can take.
No work beneath the sun
For which We need to wake.
Then hold US fast, sweet Death,
II so it seemeth best
To him who gave US breath
That we should 60 to rest.
We lay us down to sleep,
Our weary eyes We close,
Whether to wake and weep
Or wake no more, He knowf.

amendment to apply only to certain
struggling roads lns his county, and for
this he would make no apology. In an
swer to CERTAIN insinuations, he declared
he would dispense such hospitality from
