ZeppeIM'S Achievement.

Count Ferdinand Zeppelin is the
hero Of Germany and the pet of the
Kaiser. For more than city years he
has devoted his time, his money and
bis talents TO the science OF aviation,
and now at the age OF II years he finds
himself with the victory won and his
great dream come true. The whole
world Is ringing with praises Of his
remarkable feats with the Zeppelin
H." wonderful dirigibls balloon
which appears to have conquered all
; she ordinary difficulties Of aerial
navigation.
For the purposes Of warfare-which
seems to be the ultinaats aim of most
Wings German at the present time
the Zeppelin balloon is much more
effective even than the Wright
Brebhers' heavier-than-air flying
machine, although the whule matter
ofsustained flight under various condI-.
tions isso Jew and experimental that
no one can say what trlumphs await
he Daton experimeDters. In the
record breaking fAght Of the "Zeppl =
lin 1lr''lastSanday, the balloon covered
$50 miles IL thirty-seven hours and
carried Count Zeppelin, two engineers
and crew of seven men. These,
passengers were taken eyer wide
stretch of county and made recon
noissauce that was absolutely perfeos
from a military standpoint.
Various prophecies have been made
as to the part that dirigible balloons
and heayieT-than-air machines will
play ! the next great war, presuming
OF course that We have not yet ar
preached that beatifio state when wars
shall DO no more. The German Gov.
srnment appears to have taken the
dirigible balloea more seriously than
any other, and the kaiser has evinced
the keeBest interest Ia the progress
of aviation among the German expert
mentors. For kali century Count

Of aerial navigation. He has sunk
his own private fortune In these long
years Of struggle and has levied upon
bis friends. At the age OF three score
and ten he was almost ready TO give
up In despair, when Sudden victory
and fame came to crown his life.
The German government appears TO
oe thoroughly Ommitted to the dirig-
ible form Of balloon In preference TO
the heavier-than-air style Of craft
which is just now attracting so much
attention IN France and America.
Discarding national prejudiees, 1t
must be admitted that for observation
and reliability as we'll ~ endurance
the Germans are thus far in the lead.
What the future will bring forth in
