Professor Ne~veombe on Aviation.

Professor Simon Newcomb. astrono
mer, has interesting views with re-
spect to the problems Of aviation. he
rules out the possible use Of a dirigtble
balloon for any more serious military
purpose than accommodating. With re-
spect to the aeroplane, such As IN en-
ployed by the Wright brothers. he has
little faith in its solving the problem
Of air flight. He shows that the heav.
Ter than air machine cannot be stop
ped In midair for repairs. and mo emf
CINE yet built by human skill, much
less the delicate motors necessary IN
the flier, can be guaranteed against
accident" The conclusion Of this &c

The view of the parade was made
at the corner of Fifteenth street and
Pennsylvania avenue as the procession
was marching North on Fifteenth street
The advantages of seeing the magnif
cent drill work from this point are ap
parent. In line on the march is seen
the U. S. Marine Corps band with the
West Point cadets and the midshipmer
from the Naval Academy. Then comes
the Provisional Regiment of U. S. En-
gineers and Coast Artillery followed by
Coast Artillery band, Hospital Corps
Fifth Infantry band, Company A, U. s

band, division each of Z. s. seamer
from the Connecticut, Vermont, Geor

of Greek Indians, the Philippine Con
stabulary band, which passed through
here en- route to the inauguration; Vet
eran Zouaves from Elizabeth, New Jer

corded that this was the grandest of al
Inauguration professions, the pleasure
of the million people who stood on the
sidewalks watching it being marred on
ly by the fierce blizzard and snow storm
which ragged at the time. There is ey
cry evidence, however, that their patri
otisln was not dampened. This film will
be on view this week at the Park and
the admission to see it. with greater
comfort than was experienced by the
people who helped make it, is but ter
