FRANCE LOSES BIG
DIRIGIBLE BY
EXPLOSION.

Noulins, France, Sept. 25.-The
French dirigible military balloon Re-
publique exploded in the air FIVE
Eve miles from here this morning and
vas completely wrecked. The four
men On board we're killed. They are
Captain Marchal, Lieutenant Phaure
and Sub-Lisutenants vicenot and
Vince.
The Rspublique left La Palisze,
where she had been engaged in the
recent army maneuvers, Ut z O'Clock
This morning in charge Of Captain
Marchal. She passed over Moulins
at 8:45 o'clock at an altitude Of 400
feet going at a high rate Of speed
and apparently under perfect control.
The officers In the car were waving
their hands in response to the enthu-
siastic cheers Of the people below
them when. without warning, the air
ship exploded with a loud report.
At the time she vas sailing at an
altitude Of more than 300 feet.
The wrecked envelope and car fell to
the ground Immediately and the four
men on board we're instantly killed.
All examination Of the airship dis
closed the cause Of the accident.
The axle Of the right propeller had
broken and the propeller had passed
through the envelope, falling in .
feld about $50 yards away.
The loss Of the Republique as
sunes the magnitude Of national
calamity, especially as the French
had come to believe that the semi
rigid type, which is the system en-
ployed in the construction Of their
dirigibIes, was superior to the rigid
type which had been adopted by
Count Zeppelin Of Germany. Presi-
dent Fallieres and General Brun,
minister Of war, who we're informed
Of the the catastrophe while engaged
in the Inauguration Of the first inter-
national exhibition Of aerial locomo-
ton at the Grand Palace, left the
building Immediately.

Despite all the stories to the con-

baby lioness in my room now playing
about like little puppy, sleeping I'M

committed suicide by hanging her

that because she eats Jumps of sugar
out of my hand now, she will not just
as willingly eat the same hand a few
years hence when she has grown up.
Instinct is the one force in life
which man or animal cannot get away
from. You may dress a lion or a
leopard in ruffie and call him a
clown animal, but you can't change a
lions claws or leopard's spots. In
the back of his mind, seething and
soaring, is the thought that man is
his enemy, and his instinct prompts
him to kill that enemy. Nature has
equipped him with his weapons and
shown him how to use them. My

this fact.-The Bohemian.

just below Fifty-sixth street the four

should have seen the nine-mile stone

been removed. At 181st street we

WISE WORDS.


Tdleness is the master key to pow
erty
We are apt to look upon candid
friends as enemies.
Trouble never tries to dodge people
who are looking for it.
The younger a man is the more he
knows about women--he thinks.
When man begins to blow in his
money a lot Of people get wind of it,
The secret of success lies in doing
well what you can do and cutting out
what you can't do
Many a mans success is due to the
fact that he went ahead first and
made it right afterward.
Never Judge mans past by what
he tells you about it,
Some men live in advance of their
age by reading only next months
magazines.
Here's hoping the early frosts will
not spoil the canned fruit crop
The signs of love show up as plain
ly as the symptoms of measles. i
The income tax is popular with the
majority because it only hits the
minority.
And many a man does his growing
at home because he is afraid to growl
anywhere else.
Some people would be able to ac-
quire lot of knowledge il they didn't
think they knew it all
Nothing annoys the average woman
more than to have clerk try to-
hurry her along when she is shopping.
