ENDURANCE TRIAL IF A|RSH|P IS
 FAILURE COUNT ZEPPELIN'S MACHINE IS FORGED BY CONTRARY WIND TO ABANDON ATTEMPT

FRIEDERICHSHAFEN, April G. A twenty-four hour endurance trip of Count Zeppelin's airship started from: here today and ended in failure owing to undesirable weather.
 Tho sirship ascended at s:ls a. n;. ard the voyage was abandoned at 7:a5 this evening.
 During this time it descended twice to the surface of the- lake,. taking on water for ballast.
 Major Sperling, who acted as pilot in place of Count Zeppelin, finaliy de. cided to return to refill the balloon with gas. The destination of the trip, which was made purely for military purposes, was kept secret. The balloon travele.i as far as Biberach and then returned to the lake, where it engaged for long time in maneuvers. A strong aastorly wind blew early in the evening, agains, which it was impossible to make head way, although the motors were working well.
 Major Sperling, fearing that he might be driven into the mountains, decided to seek shelter in floating shell and abandon the idea of re-filling.

LONDON, April 6.--Great Britain seems to be awakening to the fact that other nations are leaving her behind in the race for command of tho air.
 While members of the house of com mons were drawing the attention If the government to the fact that Ger many has built, or is building, dozen dirigible airshipsand urging the govern ment, to take up with enetgy the con struction of British fleet, there was being held today meeting in the man sion house under the chairmanship of the lord mayor in support of the same object. Among those present were Ad- miral Charles Beresford, Prince Louis of Battenberg, Lord Curzon, Sir Hiram Maxim and Admiral Sir Percy Scott, all of whom heartily supported energetic action.
 Admiral Scott advocated the two power' standard in airships as well as in Dreadnaughts and mentioned .nei dentaily that the navy had designed new gun which at distance of coco feet could be exceedingly destructive to warships.

Finding gof Mysterious Skeleton
 Arouses Keen Curuosity

With nothing to lead to it's identity, tho grinning skull of 8 young girl was found in the hills about two miles east of the city Sunday afternoon. Clos CT search revealed the charred remains of other bones. Who the little girl was and how she met death in the bar ren waste upon which her bleached bones were found scattered is mys, tery which has not been cleared up.
 Clinging to the skull is lock of gold en brown hair, soft in texture and but D few inches inv ieagt }. The head issex. ceptionally well formed. Physicians who have examined the bones state that they are not those of an Indian. They are without doubt those of 0 white child.
 From tho location of the bones, the child was more than likely buried by Indians. Close by is an aboriginal bury. ing ground. The body had been placed in niche between two huge rocks after the fashion in which the Indians bury their dead.
 With only the skull from which to de- duet evidence, there is nothing to show that the child was murdered. This is not conclusive evidence, however, for near at hand was found portion of cartridge, of make which has not been sold in this city for several years. Coated with rust, it appears to have

 This apparently mysterious action of the half empty balloon is caused by the displacement of the air by the girls movements.

been lying exposed to the elements about the same length of time as the bones of tn child.
 The grswsome find was made by two boys who were hunting rabbits in the vicinity of the Indian burying ground. Prompted by curiosity, they made fur ther search. The rude grave WAS soon discovered, although some distance from the skuli. In 1t were the charred remains of other bones.
 Although fire had been built over the grave, it was not built for the cremation ofssthe child. The lock- of hair on the skull has not even been singed and there are no burns evident about the lower part of the, face, Rats had evidently built 8 nest over the body as they, often do and some one had set fire to the mass of twigs and grass, not knowing of the whitening bones that lay beneath.
 All indications point to the feet that the child either wandered away from home or was captured by Indians, was taken to their camp and later, having either been murdered or died from nat. ural causes was buried among the dead of that race, with nothing to show ~no the little girl had been.
 The case has aroused the keen inter est of the county authorities and every effort is. being made to clear up tie mystery.
