Army Officers Test Machine
On Which They Have Been
Working Many Months
TRIAL MADE ON GOVERNMENT
ROAD IN REAR OF THE NATION
Al CEMETERY AND PROVED
CoNCLUSIVELY THAT THE IN.
vENToRs HAD SUCCEEDED Al.
MOST BEYOND EXPECTATIONS.

The first flight of the Rhodes air
ship, invented and constructed by
Lieut.. A. L. Rhodes and Major Goss-
man, was grand success. The test
was made yesterday morning at 1880
o'clock on the government military
road in the rear of the National Gene
terry, and at its conclusion the two
army officers were enthusiastic. The
machine did everything that was
claimed of it, and actually scared.
The test was made behind a big
touring car, which supplied the power.
A long hawser was attached to the
aeroplane and then fastened to the
automobile. Lieut. Rhodes was seated
in the aeroplane, which glided along
behind the car for short distance
and then, as the auto speeded up, the
aeroplane lifted itself from the ground
and scared along behind the automo-
bile, remaining perfectly steady and
not giving its inventor the least
trouble in guiding it.
WILL INSTALL MOTOR.
The test was made prior to the in.
stallation of the motor, the towing be-
hind the automobile being desired
first. Now the motor will be installed
and the next fight will be with the
machine complete, and the two army
officers are firmly of the opinion that
the new flying machine will not only
equal some of those now in use, but
that it contains some Improvements
and features not contained by any
others.
Lieut.. Rhodes, who has for years
made a study of air navigation, is
really the inventor Of the machine,
but has received much assistance
from Major Gossman. The two Off
GERS have been at work for the past
six months on the machine, and are

of the state take the opposite view.
TT is stated that the action of .ae
committee was taken in order that
these offices should be taken out of
politics. continued Judge Wolfe, but
in my opinion it will have just the
opposite effect.
Furthermore, believe that the
unwittingly overstepped its
jurisdiction in the matter.
Some of my staunchest friends are
members of the committee, and among
these are men who led in the fight to
bring about the change. Therefore, l
