Jones filled the bill During his STAY
IN Palisade the past summer | learned
to know him, and naturally grew fond
of him. He was one of the most mag
netic fellows in the world. He was al
ways amiable, always gentle, kind and
generous. During his preparations for
flights in the Boomerang" if any
thing went wrong, he never tore his
hair and raved, never ripped out oaths
as man III his commanding position
might have been expected tC, do-noth-
ing of the sort. He gave his orders
simply, intelligently, coolly never
laundering in the tightest places,
never raising his voice His command
of himself was admirable, almost
wonder full, considering his hazardous
work His daring was complete
There was nothing lacking to his
nerve. He was adamant when it came
to showing nerve. His airship would
not respond to his plans except at
times. He never got it so that it was
actually comfortable. But he kept
trying.

In my talks with him Jones several
times expressed his belief III the hope
less task of making the dirigible bal
loon practical except for exhibition
purposes. His faith was pinned to the
heavier than air machine, and he was
gradually working to- this end. At
Hammondsport he made successful
flights in the June Bug" an aeroplane
machine he had made; but he needed
money, so planned to give exhibitions
the boomerang" being the emanation
of this idea He ultimately would
have gone gack to the aeroplane work

closest students of aerOnauticS He
did not profess to know it ALL but he
could not be fooled on any false the

ment that was based ca what he did
not believe He had no confidence in
Count Zepperln's machine, although
he never decried the latter's achieve
ment He simply said that the lighter
than-air dirigible would never become
practical as a carrier.

about four years ago to see MN upon
an important railroad matter. AT the
time Smith Clayton the widely known
eccentric Georgia journalist was In

view with Mr.. Cleveland for his paper
in Atlanta l took him along to Prince

the newspaper man rushed down TO

brightest stories of the campaign an
interview with Cleveland that stirred
the country. The New York American
offered Clayton $500 for the story, but
he was loyal to Georgia, hence the
interview first saw the light in the At
