power and weighing not more than
800 pounds could be made to lly. He
decided to have such a machine built,
and he gave the order at once.
Farman doesn't claim that his plan
for an aerial fier was at all original
What he did was to combine many OF
the leading features OF previous de-
vices that had shown promise, using
the design of Professor octave Cha
mute of Chicago as a base on which to
build. Without attempt at minute
ness of detail, the apparatus which
Farman had constructed for him by a
firm of Paris builders consists of an
oblong skeleton built up of ash, hav-
ing length of 32.S feet and 6.5 feet
square. From the fore part OF this
oblong extend lateral planes covered
by vanished textile, and the back
of the skeleton is boxed in by SINH
lar material for a length of t0.6 feet.

ness that in the lighter than air bal
loon he was dealing with mere play
thing, that the gas bag offered no
real solution and that ii would never
bring about the era of air locomotion.
From the earliest ages man has been
trying tn penetrate the secret which
at present is known in its entirety
only To the creatures TO which it was
confided as their birthright. but with
sut the power to impart it to others.
Henry Farman has been one of
those who have been trying long and
laboriouSly to wrest this hidden
knowledge from an apparently unwill-
ing nature. In November, 1906, he
saw Santos -Dmnont fly over 200 yards
at Basatelle. He was so impressed
by that exhibition. crude as it was,
that he resolved then and there to
devote himself and all his energies to
the development of the scheme. He
made up his mind that an aeroplane

That this estimate of Senior Osmena

GALE AT GAlvEST0N;
SEA WALL PROTECTS
Barrier to Water Planned and Built
by Major Richie of This City
Proves of Use.

Galveston, Texas, Sept. 1S.-Tnis
city yesterday. from 10 a. m. to l p.
M. weathered one of the se7erest
storms, excepting the cataclysm or
Sept. 8. 1900 in many years. The
wind blowing from the northeast
reached a velocity of 20 miles an hour
for about two minutes and held to
CO mile an hour gale for several min
utes.
1t was not hurricane but a west
gulf disturbance. The tide was only
four feet, as compared with II foot
tide in the great storm of 1860. The
sea wall stood the test well and there
was not drop of salt water on the
streets of Galveston.
Nearly six and a half inches of rain
fell, and owing to a poor drainage
system the streets were flooded with
water to a depth varying from 6 tt
90 inches The actual damage was
trifling. but the scare prompted many
timid people TO go to Houston, 81
miles inland, only to encounter the
same storm, which reached there il
the evening with higher wiEd We
locity.
