Right here / am going to tell
you how to build monoplane that
will fly.
/ made one and called 1t con-
cave wing monoplane, because, in
stead of slanting or bending the
wings at g dihedral angle, as in
our gliders. l got the same effect
by bending the wings bow shaped.
Langley had a machine like this,
with both the front and rear wings
the same size and the propeller at
the rear where 1t was better pro-
tected from damage.
Begin your work on the frame,
starting with the two sticks A and
3, shown in figure 1. Make them
l8 inches long and an eighth of an
inch square. Plane two smaller
sticks, F and F, to smaller size
and tie them at the front, one stick
on either side of the two main
sticks and connecting them about
an inch apart. These sticks should
be cut off about inches below
the lower main stick, B.
Spread them apart at the bottom
about an inch and half, or two
inches IL they will stand 1t without
too much straining, and connect
them by small wooden or wire
piece. If you use wire you can
make 1t do also as an axle for the
wheels.
From these two upright pieces,
b and F, two small braces run
back to the main sticks to
strengthen the front sticks and
protect them in landing.
At the back Gig. 81, the main
sticks are connected by a piece OF
thin wood. e. tied on and project
ing far enough below to allow for
tying on wire skid, r, at the
back.
So much for the frame.
Now the wings. These can he
made of cloth or tissue paper.
Light silk or STRAW cloth" are the
best materials.
Cut the wings to the dimensions
given on the drawing, and sew
tucks around the edge through
which the sticks will run.
Plane your wing sticks very
carefully, SO that when they are
bowed they will bend evenly, and
not more sharply at one place thar
another. Be sure the front anC
back sticks bend the same.
Slip these sticks through the
tucks in the edges of the wing
cloth snug.
Bow" the main wing and tail

SENTENCE

PARIS, July 2S.-With the
close of the trial of Henri Roch-
etc, who has been convicted Of
enormous swindlings and sentenc-
ed to two years Imprisonment
and given a fine of 5000, one of
the most sensational cases of it's
kind ever tried in a French court
has been ended.
Considerable surprise is felt to-
day over Rochette's sentence,
which it is universally felt is not
commensurate with the enormity
OF the offense. Rochelle was
charged with fraudulently obtain
ing more than 100000 in vio-
lation of the corporation laws.

LAIR OF CHINESE PIRATES
is SHELLED BY GUNB0AT
Portuguese Start Bitter Encoun-
ter on CoIoWan Island

HONGKONG, July l3.-A Portuguese
gunboat cooperating with troops to-
day bombarded a pirate settlement on
the island of Colowan, destroying the
houses and killing many natives
The Chinese retaliated by storming
and capturing the Portuguese military
post. Portuguese reinforcements were
sent to the scene from Macao.
The island of Colowan is near Macao
and it's ownership is a matter OF dis
pute between the Chinese and Portu-
guese.
A party of Chinese students had been
captured by the pirates and the gov
ernor of Macao sent an expedition to
effect their rescue.
The pirates resisted and were rein
forced by Chinese from the interior,
The latter were armed with modern
weapons and Slnokeless powder. In all
1000 persons were engaged in the tight
ing. Many of the Chinese were killed
while the Portuguese lost corporal
killed and a large number injured.
Subsequently the Portuguese gun
boat and force of artillery were sent
to lombard the island.
The attack on the Portuguese troops
by Chinese was inspired most likely
by their enmity toward the Portuguese
generally, rather than by sympathy
with the pirates. The territorial rights
of Portugal and China in Macao and
the adjacent islands at the mouth of
the Canton triver have long been in
DISPUTE. The city of Macao was ceded
to Portugal by China many years ago
and Portugal has gradually extended
her authority over the island of Macao
and the other dependencies of the city
of Macao
