AIRSHIP FLIGHTS
Trips to be Made Across the
Atlantic Ocean
NOT FAR IN the FUTURE
Big Craft Capable of Carrying as
Many Passengers as the Pres
ent Ocean Liner

How would you like to travel across
the Atlantic in an airship the pas
senger carrying capacity Of which is
as great as that of the biggest steam
ship afioat?
This is not mere hypothetical
question. Within year airships of
that kind will he actually plying be
tween New York and London, accord
ing to the plans now being worked up
on by Lewis Nixon, who designed the
Warships Oregon, Indiana and Massa-
chusetts.
The first of the series of airshipS
will be q comparatively small affair.
700 feet in length and eighty feet in
its greatest BREADTH. But the larger
vessels will have a length Of 2,S00 feet
and will be capable of carrying 2,5GO
passengers, including the crew, as well
as fuel, provisions, etc, necessary for
the trip. And, incidentally, the trip
across the ocean will consume frac-
tion more than two days.
Thurlow Weed Barnes, the presi-
dent of a navigation company which is
financing the new venture in aeronau-
tics, said to New York Journal re-
porter recently that he expected the
first of the great airships to be launch
ed within the next twelve months.
He said that there were fifteen di-
rectors of the new company, each of
whom is power in the financial
world. And it is very obvious that
nothing less than the biggest sort of
financiers could undertake so stupand-
Gus an enterprise, as the smallest of
the airships- one which is to b.,
700 feet in lengths to cost not less
than 1000, 900.

BIRDS KILLED BY HAIL.
Hundreds of Sparrows Victims OF

Hundreds of Sparrows Victims Of 4
- 49, Severe Ohio Storm.
"A singular feature of the storm
Of last week on the East side," said
George Fix of the state house force,
was the killing of birds by the hail
stones. The area over which the fall
of hail was heavy was not large, but
the stones did pelt down in a way
that threatened to break the slate in
the roofs.
"The English sparrows, as every
one knows, choose thick foliage trees
as their roosting places, depending
on the leaves to protect them from
the rain. But the leaves, no matter
how thick, were no protection from
those heavy hailstones, and the spar
rows were killed by the hundreds in
the vicinity of Miller avenue and Bry.
den road.
I'm front Of the Evangelical church
there are lot of thick covered ma
pies, which have formed choice
roosting place for the sparrows this
summer. There they caught it thick
and heavy, and the slaughter OF tho
birds was fearful. Monday morning
we counted 312 dead sparrows under
those trees, ard no doubt many that
were killed ~ere swept into the sewer
by the storm water that ran through
the streets.
Some suggested electricity as tie
cause, but there was no striking by
lightning in the vicinity, and the wires
of telephone companies DO not run
through those trees. They must have
been hit by the hailstones, knocked
into the water and drowned"

will involve four principles which
have never been used in combination
in any other airShip ever constructed.
These principles are compactness, in
aSmuch as even the passenger carry
ing part of the ship will be within it's
body instead of merely attached to it
.in basket form. Secondly, buoyancy
will be secured by initiating with hy-
drogen or other lighter than air gas
not only part of the body of the ship,
but even the followed out furniture
and the propellers, which thua also
become lighter than air and will float
if tossed overheard from above the
clouds. The third principle is that of
aereoplanes, one of which will pro-
trude on each side of the body of the
ship. This will add to the buoyancy
given by the gas, the skimming pow
er which sustains the heavier than air
ships. And, finally, the fourth
unique principle is that of the reli-
copters or propellers on the sides of
the ship, which, when run horizontal
ly, raise the ship to any required
height and can then be turned on a
swivel to a vertical position to propel
the ship forward.
In connection with the aeroplane,
it is an interesting fact that they will
serve on the large type of machine as
promenade decks for the passengers.
The front propeller serves not only
the purpose of drawing the ship for
ward by creating a vacuum of air into
which the ship is sucked, but by the
terrific speed of it's revolutions it also
acts as set-off to currents of air and
will, moreover, keep rain and snow
from touching the ship.
The furnishing of the passenger
quarters will be, fully as luxurious as
that of the most up-to-date Pullman
ear or ocean greyhound. The furni-
ture will be comfortably large and
constructed of pulp or aluminium. 1t
will he hollow and filled with gas, as
will everything else capable of holding
the lighter than air fluid.

Owls to Kill on searrows.

They have discovered way to thin
out the obnoxious English sparrows
in Erie. Two owls which had taken
possession of one Of the squirrel
houses in tree on the court house
lawn at Erie have launched forth into
the sparrow eradication business.
Janitor Avery noticed that the num-
Der of birds are rapidly diminishing
and Monday discovered the secret
when he had occasion to look into
the squirrel house. He found the
place literally filled with bones and
feathers which formerly had constitut-
ed parts of the anatomies Of sparrows.

leap back again with it.
The pond has since been drained
