Airship at State Fair.

Probably the greatest scientific sue
cess of the twentieth century is tn g
navigation of the air. Many aeronsuts
have achieved more or less distinction
in this line, but has remained for Roy
Knabenshue to win the appellation of
king Of the Air" he having made
flights that have surpassed in practical
bility all competitors and received the
highest appreciation of the public and
press wherever he has appeared. With
monster ship under perfect control,
he guides it with the greatest ease, GO
ing wherever his fancy leads him, and
alighting at any point desired. His
flights have been witnessed this season
by many thousands of people at differ
emit State fairs and other gatherings,
and in every instance he has been sig
nally successful, making the figure s
as skillfully as an accomplished skater.
The Tennessee State Fair Associa-
ton, has at very large expense, en-
gagged the services of Mr. Knabenshue,
who will make his first flight at the
State Fair on the afternoon of October
8. The Association is determined to
provide the very best attractions for
the visitors to the Fair, and for the
| first time in the history of Tennessee,
an airship will be seen within its bord-
ers. Mr.. Knabenshue, starting from
the Fair Grounds, will circle over
Cumberland Park; the State capital
where he will make a call on the State
officials; then over the government
and city buildings and the skyscrapers,
returning to the grounds and descend
ing at the point from which he made
his ascension. He has the highest in
dorsement of the officials of every fair
he has visited and has been pronounc-
ed the principal attraction at each of
these.
The Twelfth Regiment, United
, States Army and band, will be station
ed at the State Fair ten troops, under
command of Col John b. Kerr, hav-
ing been directed by the War Depart
ment to march from Fort Ogelthorpe,
Ga, to Nashville. where they will
continue their fall maneuvers, begun
at Chickamauga Park During the
week of the Fair they will give exhi-
billions of fancy drills, for which
they have national reputation.
