Future Aerial Navluatlon.

II there is any connection between
ballooning and aerial navigation 1t Is
remote. The airship of the future
probably will not have even speak
ing acquaintance with the clumsy gas
bag that now Is a necessary part of
the apparatus by the aid of which
aeronauts rise from the earth and &C.
complish brief flights. Some day sclen-
lists will conquer the real theory Of
fight. Much progress has been made
In that direction already through
study of the mechanical principle OPP
Grated by birds. ONCE those princi-
pies are discovered and the problem
of their application is solved, man
will build himself actual airship
having a commercial value. Then the
question of the weight to be raised
will be relative only and the airship
will be as independent of air currents
as the sea-going ship now.--Columbus

Rivers Running Inland.

A remarkable instance of a river
flowing inland is found in Africa
Near the shores Of the gulf of Ader
is small body Of salt water, Lake
Assal, occupying a basin whose flow
Is several hundred feet below sea
level. The surface Of the lake Itself
is nearly 700 feet below mean tide
and 1t is fed by river or stream
some 20 or more miles in length, flow
ing inland from the ocean. 1t is high
ly probable that the whole basin which
the lake partly fills was once an arm
of the sea, which became separated
therefrom by the drifting sands. The
infowing river has limited volume
and has filed the basin to the extent
that the evaporation and supply ex
actly balance each other. At Adels
berg, in Carniola, % miles northeast
of Trieste, is famous grotto, which
is divided into two parts, the ole
grotto and the new. The old grottt
Is 1858 feet in length while the new
extends to $3.50 feet. The river Poll
flows inland in part Of the grotto ant
disappears below the ground.

way the gold, as you look at 1t closely,

RESIDENCE DESTROYED
SUNDAY MORNING
THE HOME OF Mr.. HENRY HEW-
EFT, WITH CONTENTS, WAS A
TOTAL LOSS.

Sunday morning at l o'clock the
residence of Mr.. Henry Hewett, cor.
ner of Magnolia and Angelina streets,
burned down, and nearly all the con-
tents were destroyed, the members of
the family escaping in their night
robes. 1t was a close call for all of
them, as the entire roof was ablaze
and fell in soon after the members
escaped.
The origin of the fire is not known.
The Rutledge residence, just to the
north, was seriously threatened, and
the firemen had to keep water playing
upon it to prevent its burning.
Mr. Hewett places his loss at ap-
proximately $4,000; insurance at
s225O.
The !. & G. y. hospital is on the
opposite corner but on account of
the distance of the hospital from the
street, it at no time was in serious
danger.
Miss Rena Hewett had just returned
from school at Austin to spend the
holidays, the day before, and was
home just in time to lose her cloth
ing.
Mr. Hewett says the entire family
did not save enough clothing to com
fortably clothe one person.
Members Of the family are scattered
about with neighboring friends until
other arrangements can be made.
