Jerseyttes may wake up any morn
ing to find themselves famous, their
State hailed as the leader in the world
wide fight that is now being waged to
conquer the air and make airships d
reality and not a dream. IN and about
Newark at the present time there are
numerous airship inventors who have
machines of the most advanced type
almost ready for actual trial, machines
of various sorts that are the products
OF years of study and experimenting.
Alrships are now being quietly built
IN Linden, Bayonne, Railway. Newark
and Elizabeth. those in the first three
places being nearest completion ana
ready for trial Amos any day now.
But little has been said of this Jersey
invasion OF the field Of a~eronautics. as
the inventors are very shy o. pub
ilcity, wishing to keep tile secrets Of
thelr inventions to themselves until
tney have protected them by parents
also to refrain from any noise until
tney have actually accomplished come
thing.
Mystery Enshrouds some.

appreciation of several of the leading
~zeronauts in the country. who say that
they find in it the most advanced and
practical ideas that have vet been pro-
duced for a machine of this design.
J. r. Holland. of Newark, famous as
the inventor of the first successful
submaripe boat. has been experiment.
ing with airships for more than forty
wears. and declares that he will vet
fv over Newark roofs in the bird
sbaned machine which he is working
IN. Another inventor working on this
type of airship is Carl Senreu. of Eliza
beth. who is the most secretive of all
the Jersey inventors. but is fully as
confident as any of them that he has
at last found the correct solution of
the problem of air navigation.
The Kimbau machine at Linden is of
tyne that has been rarely tried ont
in this country, although extensive ex-
neriments have been made with it in
France The trial. which will be made
of tho h~elicoptre type by Mr.. Kimball,
will however. be far and away the
,nost extensive and thorough that 1t
has ever received.
