Military Men Interested.

q have been serving for the past ten years at Fort Leayenworth, the headquarters of the three service schools of the army. The military au thOrities there have shown the deepest interest and the tirmeSt belief ill the future of military aerOnautics. It's radical influence on the methods of warfare will compare only with the invention of gunpOwder and the tac ties of Frederick the Great.
 "The last great war was conducted strictly in line with the textbooks and was accompanied at times with terrific slaughter The great object of war; however is to bring about a decisive result with a minimum destruction of human life. If we can utilize scientific principles to bring about this result without killing any one a great ad- vance will be made

"Oh, no, Roof was made of quaking
 asp sapllngs, just about strong enough
 to break his fall. Scotty was the
 sleeper, though! It wasn't hardly nat
 ural the way that man could pound his
 ear through thick and thin. He had
 quite surprising time of it once. He'd
 been prospecting round the Ruby re-
 fractory ore district and he came out at Hank Cutters sawmill just at sun-
 down. Hanks place was full of gold
 rushers, so Old Scotty thought he'd
 sleep outdoors in peace and quiet. He discovered some big boxes that Hank was making for ore bins for the new
 mill, and as the ground was kind of
 damp from thunder shower they had
 that day he spreads his blanket inside
 the box and goes to sleep. Ore bins
 have to be smooth and dust tight, so l it wasn't bad shanty.
 "Well, there came a jar and walked him up. The box was rolling little and going along, going along forty mile an hour. Scotty lit a match and found he was in kind of big tunnel, but the wall was flying by so fast he couldn't make out just what kind of a tunnel it was. Now, he'd gone to sleep in peace and quiet on side hill, and to wake up and find himself boat riding in a tunnel was enough to sur prise anybody. First he pinched him. self to see if it was Hanks pie or a cold fact found it was a fact; then he lit another match and leaned over and looked at the black water underneath, but this made the box tip so it scart him, and he settled down in the bot tom again. He didn't try to think. What was the use? No man living could have figured things out with the few facts Scotty had before him. All of a sudden the box made a rush and shot out into the air, and Scotty felt they were falling. God sakesv he says to himself. Whats next, I won der?' Then they hit the water below with kertlap that nearly telescoped Scotty and sent the spray flying. Aft CT that they went along smooth again. We'll says Scotty, I don't know where I am, nor who I am, nor what's nor who's it, nor nothing about this game. So far 1 ain't been hurt, though, and I might just as well lie down and get a little more rest
 ''It was broad daylight when he

woke up again, and man was look ing into the box. Hello, pardner' he says. I hope you've had a pleasant journey. Do you always travel this wayY

New York, Oct. 29.-Predictions by members of the United States signal corps that the military balloon would soon bring about complete revolution in methods of warfare were freely made to the international aerOnautical congress, which assembled in this city. The review of the work of the army balloons was the most important fea- ture of the opening session.
 The congress opened at the AutOmO- bile Club of America and will con tinue it's sessions there today. It was attended by two dozen of the men who have been most prominent ill aero nAutic work in this country. There were also present half dozen of the neronauts who participated in the in- ternatiOnal balloon race from St Louis last week and who related their expe- riences.
 How War Will Be Revolutonzed.
 Professor Willis L. Moore of the United States weather bureau presid- ed, and the speakers included Rear Admiral C.. M. Chester, U. $. N.; pr. Albert F. Zahm of Washington, Pro lessor 4. Lawrence Rotch of the Blue Hill observatory, Brigader General Allen of the United States signal corps, Major George o. Squires, who has had charge of the government balloon eX- pcriments at Fort LeaycnWorth; Lieu tenant Colonel William A. GIassford of the signal corps and Major Hersey, J. C. Mccoy, Paul Meckel, Rene Gas nier and Albert Le Blanc, contestants Ill the international race and Professor W. J. Humphreys, director of the ma rine weather observatory
 The success of aerial navigation has been established" declared Major Squires, ''and the success of aerial nav igation means the introduction of new and radical methods in warfare. eX- tended possibilities of producing de ciSiye results by strategic movements against untenable positions rather than by the loss of human life. It means the ultimate passing away of warfare in the present sense and the eventual dawn of the era of peace.
