Cities at Night.
Friedrichshafen, Aug. 5. - Arising
from its floating dock on the dark
green waters of Lake Constance. the
great dirigible airship Of Count Yep
pelin was sent away for a twenty-fOur-
| hour journey in the air to Mayence and
return. Late Tuesday night the apex
of the triangular flight had been turn
ed and the monster of the air, with
nose pointed southwark, was reported
speeding along toward Friedrichsha-
fen. where it is hoped the journey will
end. The airship averaged twenty
nine miles an hour. The fight to May
ence, however, was not an uninter-
rupted one, for something was wrong
with a propeller while speeding along
above the valley of the Rhine and
Count Zeppelin was compelled to bring
the airship down to the surface Of the
river at Nackenheim eight miles from
Mayence where repairs were effected.
The dirigible again was sent on high
and the trip that will prove a record
one was recommended.
The ship of the air rose majestically
to height of 400 feet and, crossing
the lake, circled the town of Constance.
then turning, retraced the path Of its
flight and, describing a perfect circle,
passed over Friedrichshafen and then
scared westward over the lake TO
Basle, on the Swiss frontier Turning
the vessel slightly toward the north
west, Count Zeppelin steered 1t over
Mulhausen and then directed its flight
northeasterly to Strassburg. thence
following the valley of the Rhine north

of over $50 miles.
Everything was going smoothly |
when the trouble to the propeller oc- |
CURED and somewhat impeded the pro- |
gress of the airship. but when the bal /
loon had been brought down Count |
Zeppelin found the defect so slight
that he telephOned his secretary at his |
office in Friedrichshafen:
We will start again and complete |
the trip"
His expectations were realized, for
in less than four hours everything had
been made perfect. A detachment OF
engineers kept a curious pub
lie away from the balloon. to which
hey had gone out in boats The people
hen gathered on the banks Of the
stream and sang patriotic songs and

The airship rose again from the
