Knabenschue's Remarkable Flight In
AirShip.

Toledo, o., July lone of the
most remarkable flights ever made in
an airship was performed Friday by
the air, distance of three miles, land
ed on top of a ten story Office build
ing in 20 minutes from the time of
starting, and then returned to the de-
pot from which he started.
The day was ideal for the daring feat.
A light wind was blowing from the east
and Knabenschue sailed his aerial craft
directly in the face of the wind. Two
days ago he declared he would sail
down and alight on the top of ten
story building. When he left the start
ing place he directed the ship straight
for the city. When half the distance
had been covered an upper current of
air carried him up to a distance of 81
900 feet. But the nervy director did not
lose control of his machine for a mo-
ment and steered it directly for the
ly suspended and the entire population
gathered in the streets to watch the
course OF the ship.
When directly over the skyscraper
Knabenschue directed his craft DOWN
ward and alighted on the building with
the ease and grace of a bird.
After examining the ship to see that
it was all right and receiving the con-
CALCULATIONS of his friends, Knabenschue
started on his trip back, and going with
the wind he made the return trip in Is
ship is far superior to others he has
navigated, that it is easier manned and
that he has solved the problem of aerial
navigation.

The building fund levy made last
year was a mill and a half which raised
about $4,000 but as the building fund
has been overdrawn to the extent of
$4,000 the building fund must be
used to pay this Indebtedness. The limit
of the levy for the building fund is 8
mills.
The levy for the interest fund made
last August was two mills which will
raise approxima tely $24, 900. The annual
interest on the bonded Indebtedness of
the school board is more than s22, 900

IT is A PROBLEM.
How to Operate School Without
Increasing Levy.
On Present Basis There Will Be
an 81 800 Deficit.
ARE MOVING RIGHT ON.
Schools Have Kept Pace With
City's Development.
Why the II Mill Levy Is Not
Sufficient.
ARE MOVING RIGHT ON.

How to operate the public schools
of Topeka during the coming fiscal
year without increasing the school tax
levy of Is mills is a problem which
confronts the board of education.
During the past five years the school
system has grown, new buildings have
been erected, more teachers employed,
manual training, music, drawing and
other additions made to the course. of
study and the annual expenses have
increased accordingly.
At present, the board of education
is, and has been for several years,
levying IL mills tax for general pur-
pose, which is the limit that can be
levied under the law. This II mill
levy will not raise sufficient funds to
pay the current expenses of the com
ing term. The II mill levy will raise
approximately $4,000. In addition
to this the board will receive from the
state and county school fund, approx
imately $4,000 from tuition. $4,000
and from other Sources approx
imately $4,000. This estimate will
bring into the general fund $15O,5O
to be used in paying salaries and cur
rent expenses. The estimated general
expenses of the school for the next
wear is as follows.
