A few weeks ago the residents Of
London were gazing in admiration at
the movements of an aerial ship which
tioated gracefully over the thousands
OF buildings in that great metropolis,
propelled at the rate of % miles an
hour; but its voyage was limited to a
total of about 50 miles. This aerial
ship was constructed and owned by
the government. and Londoners prob
ably felt that in time of war they
would be provided with enough Of such
air craft for the purposes of observing
the forces of an enemy, as well as to
eron evv'osives therefrom.
Faris has been experimenting sue
cessfully for several years with sim

Our war department oniciais are ex.
cusable for feeling highly elated over
the remarkable success Of these
American balloon pilots, for II means
that In time of war the United States

In the last century ballooning was

LIEUTENANT HAD SURE THING,
Western Colonel an Easy Mark foE
Gambling Shark.

A lieutenant attached to one OF the
eastern forts gained reputation for
his unlimited betting on the slightest
provocation. 1t was but short time
before he had nearly cleaned out all
the members of the company to which
he was attached. 1t was therefore
with some relief that the members and
officers saw him transferred to Kan
sas. But the day before his arrival
the colonel of the eastern fort wrote
to his friend, the colonel of the Kan
sas fort, of the reputation and sharp
ness of the betting lieutenant, SO that
the western contingent were fully
aware OF what was coming. Upon the
day OF his arrival he was cordially
greeted, and the colonel remarked:
Il understand you have somewhat of a
reputation for betting in the east"
The lieutenant tried to belittle the
statement, but as the colonel got fu-
sistent for details, the lieutenant said:
III bet you $50 that you have got
something on your back" The col
onel denied having anything on his
back except his uniform The lieuten-
ant said; "Ill bet you $50 you have
got two big red spots on your back
near your shoulder blade" The col
onel took him up quickly. The money
was put in the hands of brother off,
Ger. The lieutenant said that the
colonel should strip to prove that he
was the winner, so off came the uni
form, even to the shirt. There was
nothing on the colonel's back, and so
the bet was lost by the lieutenant. who
remarked We'll, | lost that some

little, and the same night wrote his
