AN AIRSHIP THAT BEHAVES.
GOES SIX MILES IN FIFTY MN
UTES FAR FROM EARTH.
Speeds to the Roof OF Tall Building in
Toledo, Facing = High Wind. and Re.
turns to the Exact Starting Place with
the Triumphant Knabenshue, Inventor.


TOLEDO, Ohio June 30.-A. Roy Knaben-
shue, the Toledo aeronaut, to-day made
successful and remarkable flight In his
airship. He started from the Fair Grounds
at 9:35 A. M. and landed on the roof Of the
Splitter Building, ten stories tall, in the heart
Of the downtown district at 10 o'clock, the
distance being three miles, He started
on the return trip at 1920 A. NJ. and arrived
at the Fair Grounds at 1880 A. NJ.
On the downtown trip the ship beat di-
rectly into a head wind which was steady
and strong. On the return the ship was
blown mile beyond the Fair Grounds and
tackled back. Not hitch occurred in the
operation Of the ship, and Knabenshue
was in full control. When he stared of
he santed at an angle and rose slowly
Above tho trees there was a strong wind
and 1t became stronger as the airship scared
higher.
Knabenshue unanswered the ship, let
ting the wind behind carry it back slightly
until he had attained the position he de-
sired. Then he bore of downtown di-
rectly in the face of the high wind. He
rose slowly until he had left the earth
at least a mile behind. He kept the
the clouds. steadily boring into the teeth Of
the wind which at that height was blow
ing gale.
All that appeared to the thousands and
Thousands Of excited watchers on the
ground, the housetops and the roofs OF
buildings mile below him was the little
dot of the balloon and a short streak under
it that was all that could be seen OF the
frame.
Again and again Knabenshue let the wind
carry him of few points, but every time
he threw the big rudder hard over the big
herringlike ship turned about. He kept
the ship in the air until he had passed be-
yond the Splitter Building and over the
roof OF the Gardner Building. Then he
let the wind carry him slowly back. He
eased off the engine and the ship settled
gently
Finally he stopped the machinery alto
gether and down he came into the arms
Of the big crowd waiting to haul In his
ship and to grasp his hand. His perfect con-
troll Of the air craft was illustrated at the
end of the return trip. He came down
steadily, and when about 100 feet above the
ground he steered the ship in an almost
perfect circle and made it settle softly in
the exact spot from which he had started
an hour before and exactly between two
rows of sandbags that had been dropped
off the frame at the start.
Knabenshue declares that his present
ship ia far superior to others he has nav-
gated, that it is easier managed and that
he has solved the problem of aerial naviga-
ton. He will make another flight at the
Fair Grounds on Sunday afternoon

PREFERS LANsT0N MACHINES.
Public Printer Palmer Testines That They
DO Better Work and More Of II.

WASHINGTON, Juno so.-At the opening
session to-day Of the investigation into the
purchase Of typesetting machines for the
Government Printing Office, conducted
by the Committee of Five appointed by
President Roosevelt to investigate generally
the business methods Of the Government
departments, Public Printer Palmer was
the chief witness.
Mr.. Palmer testified that the Mergen-
thaler typesetting machines were good
for newspaper work, but that the Lanston
did more work and that 1t was Of better
quality. He denied that he had contracted
for more Lanston machines than he could
place in the printing Office. OF the 70
Ianston machines contracted for, he
intended to put AZ on specification work
and the rest in a division where there were
already ten Lanston machines.
Mr.. Palmer quoted Chief Clerk Bryan Of
the printing office. who had been foreman
Of printing for more than thirty years. as
confirming his judgment as to the super
iority of the Lanstons.

ment of New York. who are here to con-
tend at Bisley for the trophy offered by the
Colonel of the Queens Westminsters.
The reception pleased his Majesty as
we'll as it did the mon of the Seventh.
Obviously the King was struck with the
characteristic uniform Of the Seventh and
pleasantly announced his admiration be-
fore the guests left Buckingham Palace.
The King had expected that the cere-
mony of inspection would come after the
trooping of the colors on the Horse Guards
parade in honor of the birthday Of the
King This was postponed on account OF
the rain and the King notified the rife team
that he would receive them at midday

proceeded by the main entrance into the
ballroom, where Major John IL. Beacon,
the military attache at the American En-
bassy, in full uniform, inspected them.
Ambassador Whitclaw Reid joined them
there.

the King being occupied with his ministers,
the team marched in single file into the
Oak room, where were the King and several
lords-in- waiting. The King was attired

Of tho team had been drawn up, the officers
saluted. His Majesty in Jew appropriate
words, complimen:ed Capt. Mclean on
the mems appearance, He asked how
long they had been here. and how long they
would stay. He regretted that the weather
had prevented the trooping Of the colovs.
He hoped they would enjoy their visit and
have pleasant time at Bisley.
The King went down the line, and each
man was personally presented to him.
He shook the hand of each man heartily.

the King for his courtesy in receiving re-
representatives. of the regiment As the
team left the palace the guard turned out
and saluted, and the salute was returned.

under Walrotts contract. MIR. Iravers
refused to sell, however, except at what
Walcott alleges is a prohbitive price. The
demands of the drivers for better pay and

in vain to secure an I'M JUNCTION to compel
Travers to allow Wolcott to use the New
