900 persons attended the annual picnic
of the Warrensburg Missouri society at

salutation of "Show mel" were shown
the times of their lives in beach attrac-
tions and amusements.
Aside from this picnic, one of the
largest crowds of the season made this
beach it's objective today, the traffic
authorities placing the number above
that of last Sunday which was con-
ceded to be the largest Sunday crowd
of the season aside from those dates
when there were special events jim
progress.
The bath house gates registered
nearly 5000 paid admissions, and the
roulette wheel was crowded all day.

OFFERS WELLMAN
A HUGE AlRSHIP
SIRCH TRANSPORT MAY BE
USED IN NORTH
LOS ANGELES INVENTOR PROF
FERs RIGID DlRlGleLE
Does Away with Gas Making and
Combines Great Strength with Ex-
treme Lightness and High
Lifting Power

Charlemagne w. Sirch, the Los An
geles electrical authority and aeronau-
tical inventor, has written to Walter
Wellman offering to place at his dis
posal the "Sirch transport" which en-
bodies many desirable features for an
airship designed to reach the north
pole. Among these are great strength
through a steel frame with tensile
strain in construction, giving rigid
dirigible; freedom from dependence on
hydrogen gas or any gas making plant,
yet with as much or more lifting power
as any gas vessel; a fireproofed en-
velope which may be safely debated
and reinfated at any point in the
Journey, and a control radically diff
ferent from that in any airship yet
built, which should be an advantage on
a polar expedition.
Mr.. Sirchs airship embodies so many
features at variance with aeronautical
customs that he has spent considerable
time in having his calculations and
ideas verified by experts and authori-
ties, and none of these has found them
unsatisfactory. Several of the most
prominent western engineers and aero
nautical authorities known all over the
world have passed on the "Sirch trans
port" and approved the plans.
The airship is designed to dispense
with gasmaking by substituting air
heated by radiation to a point where 1t
will have a sustaining power equal TO
or greater than hydrogen gas. A curve
plotted by Mr. Srch from his expert
ments show that at a temperature of
44O degrees air is expanded to lift load
equivalent to that of hydrogen gas.
The "Sirch transport" is planned as in
the Zeppelin class, being true airship
and not a balloon with power attached.
Mr.. Sirch believes that his airshop
offers unusual advantages for the uses
of the Wellman expedition, and being
desirous of seeing the honor of discover
ing the pole go to America he has Of
fered to aid Mr.. Wellman in every way
possible. A "Sirch transport" may be
constructed in much less time for
great deal less money than a Zeppelin,
which adds to its desirability.
Efforts have been made repeatedly by
Mr.. Sirch to gain opportunity to demon
strate his airship to the United States
government but he has been ruled out
so far because the war department has
refused to allow any competition eX
cept from airships utilizing hydrogen
gas. All attempts to break beyond this
rule have been unsuccessful.

OLDEST POSTMASTER
DIES AT HIS STATION
FOUND DEAD IN HEART OF THE
MOJAvE DESERT
octoaenarian Passes Away at Coyote
Holes, His Locked Mail Pouch
at His Side-Had Thrill
ing Career
fsnecInl to The Herald.l


SAN BERNARDINO, Aug. 29.-Miles
from civilization, Freeman S. Raymond
said to be the oldest postmaster In the
United States, was found dead Thurs-
day at his lonely postal station at
Coyote Holes, in the heart of the Mo-
lave desert. He had been dead for
number of days.
For more than a quarter of century
the faithful old man had been caring
for the mail between Independence and
Barstow, during which time he had
been through many thrilling encoun-
ters, and frequent tales have been
brought in from the desert by miners
in which the pioneer postmaster fig-
ured prominently.
Raymond was So years old, and up
until the time of his death had unfal-
teringly guarded the mails of the gov
ernment through the desolate regions
of the desert, and when death claimed
him he was seated in his arm chair in
his lonely cabin where the miners for
hundreds of miles come for their mail,
patiently waiting for the stage which
runs at infrequent and uncertain inter-
walls between Coyote Holes and Motave.
His locked mail pouch was at his side.
and in this manner he was found by
miners who had ridden for miles to the
post for their mail.
The most exciting and perilous OF
Raymond's recent experiences occurred
seven years ago, when, during a terrific
storm, the cabin was cut squarely in
two by the advancing torrent which
swept along the canyon, on the ridge
of which the post was located, Ray
mond was in the portion OF the build
ing carried away by the floods. and
which caught on a large boulder two
miles farther down the canyon, where
he was picked up unconscious by his
faithful wife. who was In the part of
the cabin left standing on the ridge
and who had hastened TO his aid. She
has since died. and Raymond lived on
in the country which had long been
known as his home.
