FRENCHMEN HAVE NEW PLAN
FOR AERIAL NAVIGATION

Paris, Oct 20.-A new principle of
terial navigation with heavier than
air machines has been employed in
some recent experiments and gives
promise of large results. Instead of
using planes on the box kite princi-
pie, driven by vertical propeller. as
is the case in the aerDpianes of Santos
Dumont and other eXperimenters up
TO this time, rotary horizontal planes
are used. In other words the gyro-
scopic principle is employed and the
machine is called the gyroplane. The
theory is that by employment of hori-
zontal propellers the machine can be
easily lifted ANA lowered after the
fashion Of the old "helicoptre" toy,
longitudinal motion being obtained
by the forces of gravitation by allow
ing the machine to dip and glide on
its planes in the same way that the
heavy birds soar. Count de Lambert
believes that this is the true solution
of aerial flight, but the honor OF CON
structing the first machine on this
belongs to Louis Brcguet
He has built a machine in the general
form Of a Saint Andrews cross. each
arm having at its extremity eight re-
valring paddles or propellers slightly
inclined. These thlrty-fwo paddles
present a total surface of twenty-five
square meters aud are revolved by a
ferry ship motor al the center of the
cross, which is whore the pilot sits.
The total weight Of the machine is
57S Kilograms. In the preliminary
trial the machine left the ground in
stantly when the motor was set in mo-
tion and was easily sustained in the
air with seventy-eight revolutions a
minute. When the motor was slowed
down the gyrOplane descended gently.
Perfect equilibriums were maintained.
flight has not yet been
attempted. but the inventor thinks il
will be easy to make sevcnty-fve kilo-
ters an hour.

tieally every member Of the Hudson Coun-
ty delegation. The member of the Hul-
son delegation who introduced reform bills

cities the right TO sue franchises without
the consent of the. encouragement Both
these bills were introduced in the last
session by Assemblyman Tumulty, Of Hud-
son. and he will reintroduce them.
Il acknowledge the magnificent fight
that Acknowledgement McCarter made in

BAR PRETzEL SALES.
Quaker City Teachers Put out of Bust
ness by School Board.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 5.-Principals
and ~janitors of the public schools who
have been selling pretzels and cakes TO
pupils will AVE to go out of business.
Reports submitted to the elementary
schools committee of the Board of Educa-
ton showed that the practise of selling to
the children at the recess hour was quite
general throughout the local educational
system.
Last spring,in order to prevent the chill
dren from buying impure food, the COM
mittee had instructed the principals to reg
ulate the sales. The chief protests against
the principals turning merchants came from
small storekeepers in the vicinity of the
schoolhouses, who complained that the
principals were running their business.
The committee was Informed that where
principals had sold pretzels and cakes the
profits were turned over to funds estab-
lished for the decoration of the school,
houses. A resolution was passed forbid
ding all principals, ~janitors and other en-
ployees or the Board of Education from
selling to, pupils.
