ATTEMPT TO FLY OVER
THE OCEAN FROM WEST
Joseph BruCkner, Formerly of
Chicago, Now at Work on
DirigibIe in Munich

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.--The next at
tempt to cross the Atlantic i'm a balloon
will probably he made on a westward
course--the opposite from that at
tempted by Wellman. The expedition
will be that OF Joseph Brucker formerly
of Chicago. who has been engaged for a
year in the preliminary plans for his
Rirship trip.
Bruckers dIrigible. the Suchard, is
approaching completion at Munich The
entire equipment will he shipped to the
Canary Islands at the end Of the year
and the start westward is scheduled to
be made from Tenerffe next February.
Brucker's first scheme was to start from
Cadiz. The adoption of Teneriffe as a
starting point will save him 700 miles
of travel over the ocean.
The Sucharo is 200 feet long and has
$500 cubic meters gas capacity. Two
200-horsepower motors will drive the
airship by means of two propellers The
balloon will carry a 80 life-boat with a
gasoline motor equipment.
Brucker hopes to sail with favoring
northeast trade winds to Porto Rico or
Haiti.
If necessary he can make a descent
there and then continue his voyage over
Cuba to New Orleans. He has a novel
method of overcoming the effect of the
suns rays on the balloon, which in the
case of the Wellman expedition sent the
America bounding up TO a height $500
feet. He proposes to meet this not by
an equilibrator as planned by Melvin
Vaniman, but by filling tanks with wa
ter to act as ballast during the warm
hours Of the day and emptying them
again as the cool of evening comes on.
To do this he proposes to ship an auto
matte pump attached to the engine or
the ship which will take In and dis
charge water through long hose hung
from the lower part of the balloon.

The nights rest was much appreciated,

screams of some wild animals, perhaps
JackaIs, and the braying of donkeys.
We were up early next morning and OF

AS we were leaving next morning, a
rather amusing incident occurred. One
member Of our party, Mr.. Fred Patter-
son, who was riding horseback, wanted
to put his suitcase in our hack. There
were four of us in the hack besides the

glad to accommodate him. But the
driver objected vigorously. Just then
Colonel Barton suggested to Mr.. Patter-
son: Give him something" Mr.. Patter-
son handed the driver a. shilling. The
effect was so instantaneous in hushing
up his protests that we all irresistibly
burst out into a laugh, at which he
looked very shecpish. But he put the
shilling in his pocket and offered no
further objection to the suitcase being
placed in our hack the rest Of the way.

OF VALUE TO HORSEMEN.-Do you
turn your horses out for the winter? II
so, we want to call your attention to
very important matter. Horses which
have been used steadily at work, either
on the farm or road, have quite likely
had some strains whereby lameness or
engagements have been caused. Or per-
haps new life is needed to be infused into
their legs. Gombault's Caustic Balsam
applied as per directions. just as you are
turning the horse out, will be of great
benefit; and this is the time when It can
be used very successfully. One great
advantage in using this remedy is that
after it is applied II needs no care or
attention, but does its work well and at a
time when the horse is having a rest OF
course it can be used with equal success
vile horses are in the stable, but many
people in turning their horses out would
use Caustic Balsam If they were remind
ed of it, and this article is given as a re-

CITY PATIENTS BARRED
AT BIB PEST HOUSE

MACON, Ga, Oct. 22.-The barring OF
the county pesthouse against city
patients By the county commissioners to-
day puts the city in an embarrassing po-
sition. as it is wholly without smallpox
or contagion hospital facilities, with the
season for such diseases rapidly ap-
preaching with the advent of cold
weather.
The city council recently refused to pay
a bill of 50 200, which the county consid-
cred was the city's proportionate share
in caring for smallpox patients last
winter, and thereupon the commissioners
notified the mayor and the city board OF
health that no longer could they use the
county pesthouse.
Council will very likely take necessary
action at it's meeting next Tuesday night.

LECTURES AT
THE EXHIBIT
Anyone Without Cost Can
Learn How to Prevent and
Cure tuberculosis.
INTEREST Is AROUSED
1877 SMITH STREET

With talks every fifteen minutes
the tuberculosis exhibit at 1877 Smith
street is becoming more of an at
traction every day. Under the direc-
tion of George Muirhead, popular
demonstrations are given regarding
the cause, cure and prevention of
the disease which should be known
by every citizen who has the well be-
ing of his community at heart
Each afternoon two classes from
the public schools attend the exhibit
and are told of the disease in all it's
phases. Between times and evenings
there are lectures in the popular
form. Among other things recon-
mended for the prevention of the
disease is the avoidance of kissing.
To destroy the germs and prevent
the spread Of the disease to others
and to the sound parts of your own
lungs destroy whatever you cough up
before it has a chance to dry. Never
expectorate on the floor, wall, stove
or sidewalk. Do not swallow it,.
Spit only on pieces of cloth or soft
paper. Use each but once. Repress
coughing as far as possible. Sleep
alone and always with the windows
open. All soiled towels, handker-
chiefs, clothing and bed clothing
should be boiled for a half hour be-
fore they are washed.
Before moving into a house find
out whether the cellar is at all times
dry A damp cellar makes the whole
house unhealthy. Find out whether
there have been any cases of con-
sumption in it. If so have the rooms
thoroughly cleaned and then disin-
fected by the Board of Health or a
doctor before living in them. Living
with a careful consumptiYe person is
not dangerous.
Remember that the tuberculosis
exhibit and the sale of Red Cross
seals goes hand in hand. Both have
the same motive behind them, the
elimination of the white plague" F."
For the purpose of fighting tubercu-
losis in Perth Amboy meeting has
been called for tonight in the parish
house of st. Peters church at
o'clock. William G. SmallWood, ex-
ecutive secretary Of the New Jersey
Association for the Prevention and
Relief of tuberculosis, will be in
CHARGE. 1t is proposed to organize at
this meeting a permanent Anti
tuberculosis League for Perth Am
boy. AS a campaign fund this orga-
nization will have 80 per cent. of the
proceeds from the sale of Red Cross
seals In this city. You can help this
great work for humanity by using as
many of these seals as possible dur
ing the pending holiday season.
Buy Red Cross seals, visit the
tuberculosis exhibit and say a good
word for this present day movement
and you are doing your best for
