06e Wizard OF the Air.

CATION as Santos Dumont cannot hope to
escape disaster sometimes, and he has had
some miraculous escapes from death.
When competing for the Deutsch prize
for the first time, In sight OF all the spec
tators. the airship. to everyone's horror,
suddenly and totally collapsed in mldair
and landed on some houses near the Elf
fel Tower. Everyone expected that the
young Brazilian was killed. but, strange
to relate be received nothing but Sc
we're shaking and a few bruises, whilst
the alrship was totally wrecked. The ac-
cident was due. the inventor said. to tho
ventilator refusing to act at crucial
moment In 1902, when "a was sailing
across the Mediterranean. his airship col
lapsed and fell into the Bay Of Monaco.
The aeronaut was picked r. unhurt by
boats. but his "ship" was isndered use
less. For the past three -ars Santos
Dumont has steadily been navigating the
air and diligently pursuing his all-absorb-
ing study and making new inventions
with which he hopes to perfect navi-
gable balloon Indeed. he claims that Il
r. possible 10 reach the North Pole and
that he has solved the riddle OF giving
new impulse to aerial navigation. AS he
rightly says, what seemed impossible i've
years ago seems possible now. The two
great drawbacks TO the balloon. he says.
are condensation and expansion. and be-
cause Of these defects Il Is .-ot possible
for a balloon to stay In the air for
much longer period than "a hours. though
the record Is for little under SO hours.
The higher a balloon goes the colder
the gas becomes with which II Is Inflated,
and thus condenses. Ballast. therefore,
has to be thrown out TO compensate for
the descending OF the balloon. Even the
heat from the sun expands the gas and
raises the balloon. and II the valve is not
opened to let some Of the gas escape. an
explosion would follow. The balloon.
oc,ain. Is greatly Influenced by atmospheric
preSsure and has to be treated and regit
lated accordingly.
Npw. II the steam. which collects 10 fhe

win transmute the water Into steami
(which will expand the gas until 1t pro
d'nces the required lifting force.
Santos Dumont has invented a most ip-
r,enioDs contrivence. a sort Of condenser

y.ertically inside the balloon, which VIII
