various countries are not taking advantage of
the tempting prizes offered by private indi

don newspaper has standing offer, good for
the next five years, of fifty thousand dollars
for fight from London to Manchester, dis
lance of about two hundred miles. A similar
offer has been made by Paris journal for
flight from that city to London in 1908. In
this case the fifty thousand dollars was made
up by public subscription, SO keen is the inter

said to have an offer from the French Gov
eminent of a million dollars for their model,
provided it makes a flight test of at least fifty
kilometers under the eyes of staff officers and
inspectors. They claim to have lighted upon
the aeroplane years before other students of
aeronautics found this solution of real fight.
As to Santos Dumont, he has been over
year at work on his latest model, whose little
motor alone cost three thousand dollars. 1t
is a fifty horsepower Antoinette, and drives
the Bird of Prey at nearly forty miles an hour
with fifteen hundred revolutions minute
Like his rivals, Santos Dumont is striving to
reduce the weight of his motor, which at pres
ent weighs one hundred and sixty pounds
Each horsepower represented in the engine
equals only three and one-half pounds in
weight: which reminds one that the United
States Patent Office for years refused every
application for flying machine patent unless
its inventor showed balloon attached to the
apparatus. The authorities claimed that no
machine could be made to fly unless an engine
could be invented weighing at least six and
one-half pounds to the horsepower. and this
was looked upon as something fantastic and
visionary AS a matter of fact, Santos Du-
mont's latest engine is nearly one hundred
per cent. lighter.

Does not Germany maintain standing army
of five million men, and France one of three
millions? If one or other of these powers
could secure a perfect flying machine model,
and fit out aerial battalions, they would be
masters of the situation. For in time of war
they could maneuver above the enemys head
at a height exceeding that of snowy Mont
Blanc herself and rain destruction upon the
helpless infantry and artillery below. No
known tactics could save the groundlings:
There is no trench or other cover that could
protect squadron or regiment SO long, as it
remained on the earth. One wonders whether
an entirely new pattern of cannon will be de-
signed to cope with the altered eondit ion
curious ordnance now used in the South of
France in Italy. and in Austria, to disperse
the hail clouds.
1t is certain that Great Britain is striving
earnestly for first place in the matter of flying
machines. At the we'll known military camp
of Aldershot there has been for years regular
war balloon factory under Colonel Templer,
and here at this moment exhaustive expert
ments are being tried with flying machines,
especially model designed by Captain Baden
Powell, well known in connection with his
military kites.

said that the fault was not his; that he wanted
to publish the book, but the directors OF his

of it. They had examined the book, and the
majority of them were OF the opinion that
there were places in it of humorous character.
Bliss said the house had never published

to it, and that the directors were afraid that a
departure of this kind would seriously 1nJure
the houses reputation: that he was tied hand

of July (I86o, think) l lost patience, and
telegraphed Bliss that if the book was not on

Light Power the Thing

THE only real difficulty of aviation is to get
power in a sufficiently light form. We
have seen how this is being steadily overcome:
and experts like Sir Hiram Maxim Lebaudy,
Professor Huntingdon of Kings College. and
others are convinced that the petrol motor of
to-day will seem as barbarous to our posterity
as a model of Putting Billy does to railroad
engineers, who turn out the magnificent loco
motives that haul us at sixty miles an hour
across the continent. 1t may be possible,
they say, that science and physics will I'M
lock for us the infinite energy contained in the
eectron, and take force from the ether itself.
What is perfectly clear is that the Govern
ments of the world at their wits end to know
what to do about the ever increasing naval
and military burdens, will enter into fierce
competition for this latest and greatest of all
inventions. Many man is to-day working
in secret, subsidized by State money. and
visited constantly by confidential agents of
the great military Powers of the world.
