Lincoln, Neb.-From convict No.
1902 to inventor and capitalist, from
a narrow little cell in the Nebraska
state prison to the head OF an air
ship manufacturing plant in st. Louis
Is likely for William Howard, an in
mate of the penitentiary near Lin
coin, under a six-year sentence for
burglary
Howard, since he became an inmate
of the penitentiary, has perfected
model of an airship which he Is sure
will revolutionize air travel. The plans
are in st. Louis, and patents are TO
be procured He says:
Howard, of course, Is not my real
name. That was the name under
which | was sentenced, and that it
will remain until | am out of prison.

ago I took up the study of air nayi-
cation, and have been working on
the problems at intervals since. My
plan is similar in some respects to
that of Count Zeppelin, but l be-
lieve my model is an Improvement.
1t is an airship combining the priu-
ciple of both the dirigible and aero
plane, but radically different from
that of the Zeppelin creation. In,
stead of being a huge collapsible gas
bag for sustaining power, mine will
be a rigid aluminium gas cylinder or
chamber, large enough, of course, to
correspond with the number of pas
sengers to be carried in the basket.
This gas chamber will contain just
enough gas to hold the ship in air.

motive power and also serve, IN. case
of necessity, to carry the ship up
ward The propulsion will not be by
direct gasoline power. 1t will be by
electricity generated by a gasoline
engine combined with a dynamo.
Danger of collapse or other acct
dent with my ship will thus be re-
duced to minimum. The gas cham
Der can be made to sustain any
weight deemed necessary. but 1t will
be only secondary to the planes for
propulsion and weight-carrying pow
er. A chamber 200 feet long will prob
ably carry 25 passengers.

Towards inventive genius has not
stopped with his dirigible aeroplane.
He is preparing plans for an aero
plane somewhat on the lines OF the
Wright and Farnam biplanes. A pre-
liminary model has already been pre-
pared. Not much attention was paid
to the models at first, but Howard
stuck to his work, devoting most of
his time to his dirigible, the problem
he started to solve long before air
ships were seriously discussed In this
country or Europe.
Howard has been an inmate Of the
prison since March, 1907, following his
conviction for robbing the residence
Of E. T. Swobe, manager Of the Ma
tional Fidelity Company Of Omaha.
Before his conviction he invented a
cigar making machine which he sold
to t he American Tobacco Company
for $4,000
A mail box lock, invented by him
had been favorably reported by the
government. Locks mad played an
important part in Towards troubles
and successes. The charge OF his
picking one and entering the Swobe
residence and making away with
several hundred dollars worth OF
silverware, led TO his being sent TO
prison.

Concerning Bobby Fountains
Show

The aged maxim. "whcn you have
seen one dog and pony show, you have
seen them ALL" does not hold with
the Bobby Fountain Show.
First, the management OF this show
knew that the safest and surest way
to gain friends and patrons was to add
on and enlarge the show In every way,
thus giving its patrons more for their
money than at any previous season.
Then In catering to all classes and
all ages they knew that many do not
care to sit for two hours and witness
a straight dog and pony show, no mat
ter how we'll the dogs and ponies are
trained nor how many Of them there
are.
So 10 addition to Prof. Harry
Clark's famous troupe Of educated
ponies and performing dogs (Which
are conceded by those who know to be
the very best on the road today there
are circus performers in all lines, such
as clowns, tumblers, contortionists.
slack wire and high wire artists, jug
glers, aerialists, trapeZe, horizontal
bar and Roman ring performers, and
the best trick mule riders to master
the worst bucxing and kicking mules
obtainable.
In addition to all this splendid pro-
gram there is the marvellous aeor-
plane, which is exhibited twice daily.
This alone is worth going miles to see
and Is the only one to be seen with a
tent show in the middle west today.
No ordinary performers have been
considered for moment. Every man
and woman with the show have been
chosen because they we're the very
best to be found anywhere In their re-
spective lines.
The acts are new and novel, many
OF them highly sensational, and the
performance throughout Is as pretty
an entertainment as ever seen under
canvas.
Manned by gentlemen, from man
agerto stable-boys; entirely free from
"Rrafters," gamblers and rutfians, this
show leaves no immoral wrinkles be-
hind In tho community where 1t ex-
hibits, and is about the only show
where ladies and children, the good,
moral and refined, can visit safely;
where no word, act or deed Is per-
mitted to offend the most exacting
intellectual visitor
We take pleasure In announcing the
coming of this splendid show to Ord
way Saturday, .May7.
