MOTORISTS sTop RUNAWAY

Harry Johansen. who has returned from a
tour of the north coast counties in seven
passenger White steamer, succeeded in stop
ping a runaway stage on one of the steepest
and toughest grades of Humboldt. As the au-
tomobile party stopped at spring to get
drink driverless stage. tearing down the
grade with the horses at keen run, passed
them. Johansen, with one of his party at
his side. started after the runaway, which
was already lost in a cloud Of dust. 1t was
not difficult fer the White to catch up with
the stage. but the dust was so thick that
1t was dangerous to approach too closely. The
grade was very steep and narrow and the
pursuers expected every moment to see their
quarry topple into the deep canyon. Final
ly, after almost five miles had been covered,
the dust cleared away rocky piece OF
road. Selling the chance, Johansen drove his
ear close up against the of the stage
and the man the front seat with him
climbed the hood to the vehicle. He
then clambered over the top to the front seat.
seized the reins and soon brought the tired
horses TO stop.
The horses had started from a station while
one was in the stage. hut the automobile
party was warmly thanked by the stage driver
for saving his property. When the runaway
stopped it near a turn where nuth-
ing could have prevented ii going over the
bank.

AIRSHIP Line.
oIRIcIeLE BALLOONS TO CARRY
PASSENGERS BETWEEN PHIL
ADELPHlA AND NEW YORK.
BALDWIN's CONTRACT.
SHIPS TO BE LARGE ENOUGH TO
CARRY FROM TWENTY TO
THIRTY PASSENGERS.

Washington.--At banquet at the
National Press Club Saturday night,
Capt. Thomas s. Baldwin, who has
just delivered dirigible to the United
States army at Fort Myer. announced
that he had been given n contract. soon
to be signed. to construct airships for
an aerial passenger line to ply be-
tween Philadelphia and New York. in
corporated in Massachusetts about six
weeks ago by Charles j. Glidden.
The Glidden company recognized in
Captain Baldwin the first practical in
ventor of a dirigibie which could be
used for commercial purposes. and
sent Professor Clayton OF the Blue
Hin observatory at Boston to make OBJ
seryations and report on the speed and
endurance trials of the Baldwin dirigi-
Bile at Fort Myer. Professor Clayton
was authorized. II satisfied with the in
vention, to have Captain Baldwin at
once sign the contract for the Iassen-
ger airships. This was urged by Pro-
fessor Clayton. but Captain Baldwin
induced the company to hold off until
he completed his contract with tho
government, when he would devote hts
entire attention to the company's in
teresiS. rms was agreed 10.
The passenger airships win be Of the
present Baldwin type. semi-rigid. with
gas bags of the latest vulcanlzed silk
material. with balloon nets and net
ting. They will be from l50 TO 200
feet In length, and will be capable OF
carrying twenty to thirty passengers
or more each.
In time. they will equal or even ex-
Gel the length of the Zeppelin airship,
recently destroyed, and consequently
capable of carrying more passengers
The number of airships to be con-
structed will not be determined until
Captain Baldwin meets the representa-
tives OF the company at Boston.
In an interview with Lieutenant
Lahm. for the aeronautlcal board. Mr.
Baldwin was informed that he made an
official speed OF 1915 miles an hour
in his remarkable endurance run OF

Wooden Stump Used as Stirrer Got
Harmon Into Trouble.
Copyright by waidou s.x...a

New York.-That a wooden leg is
not a fit and proper instrument with
which to stir bowl of lemonade is
the opinion of Nathan Wagner, a res
taurant keeper at 215 Park Row. Wag-
ner was doing in his restaurant.
when a breathless ragamuffin rushed
in from the street.
Say. mister he cried. "dere's a
guy outside wat put his leg in your
Lemonade"
Now. in front of Wagner's place is
stand on which he placed large
glass bowl of lemonade to be sold at
the rate of a cent a glass. Mr.. Wag-
ner, therefore. was quick to get to the
sidewalk To his astonishment. he
saw one-legged man leaning against
the bench and slowly stirring the
lemonade with a wooden leg. which he
had unstrapped from it's stump.
stop that" yelled Wagner.
The man looked surprised. lifted the
leg from the bowl and then deliber-
ately struck the glass a vhack that
shivered it.
"Hely." cried Wagner. Just as Po-
liceman Williams of the Oak Street
station came along, and the police
man placed under arrest the man who
had swung the leg. When the man
