Fun, Romance and Excitement for

That Wenatchee is making a repu-
ton of being the best showdown IN
the west is common talk among Wis

beyond peradventure by the fact that
attendance at the Gem theatre Is
maintaining the capacity record in
spite of the excellent company at the

turned away again because seats and
standing room were at premium.
A change of program is announced
for the Gem tonight. The leading

SAN DIEGO AERIAL
VESSEL
H. r. Berry Received Des-
cription From Friend of
New Craft.

H. R. Berry, of this city, is in re-
ceipt of a prospectus of the ajrshlp
San Diego, being constructed by the
Toliver Aerial Navigation company
of America. 1t is built after the
Zeppelin type, is $50 feet long and
40 feet in diameter. 1t carries four
horsepower engines with six pro-
pellers, one on each end and two on
each side. The shafts connecting
the propellers are flexible and are
I'capable of being moved 80 degrees,
which makes it possible to be con-
trolled by the propellers instead of
rudder which the ordinary airship
has been controlled by.
With a length of only $50 feet,
the San Diego will carry 40 passen-
gers, as compared with Zeppelin's 20
passengers in a ship nearly 500 feet
long. The German ship has to rise
and descend on a long slant, thus
requiring large, open fields for de-
parture and arrival and greatly in
creasing the danger of collision with
Instructions, also greatly diminish
| ing the available area for stations.
| But the San Diego rises and descends
in a perfectly perpendicular line (by
means of our patented reversible side
propellers) and is steered, not as in
the Zeppelin ship, by fiat rudder
blades, but by the ingenious arrange
ment of the fore and aft prOpellers
which are set upon flexible shafts
enabling the engineer, by the touch
of his hand, to defect the angle OF
propulsion and thus of the vessel
itself"
Were three of the engines to break
down the ship could be driven with
the one remaining engine, and if the
four were to go out of commission
it could quickly descend where ii
was.
1t is expected to have the new
aerial craft ready for business in
short time and regular trips will be
instituted between San Diego and Los
Angeles.

Electrical Superintendent
Calculates Cost of Light
ing System.

During the past year there has
been considerable sentiment aroused
on the subject of cluster lights for
Wenatchee avenue. The lighting
committee of the city council, of
which w. G. Stacey is chairman, af-
tep their investigation, concluded the
cost would be too great, and the mat
ter has been held in allegiance.
Inasmuch as a considerable num-
Der of citizens, especially the bust
ness men, are interested in the clus-
ter light service and believe it would
be a great means of identifying We
natchee avenue, the report of r. n.
Arms, superintendent of the lighting
department of the city of Seattle,
will be Of interest. He has issued
a tabulation showing the cost of the
cluster light system which is rapidly
being extended over the city. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Arms figures, which
are based on cost of installation and
the Department. records of cost of
maintenance, one cluster light in
Guiding pole and conduits, costs, set
up, $2650l. The cost of cluster
light system figured by the linear
foot is 1891. To operate one clus-
ter pole a year costs $46.S3. These
figures are, of course, based on the
mere cost of operation, as the city
manufactures its own power.
Il regard the cluster light as
about as economical as the arc
lights said Mr.. Arms. Figuring
the total cost of installing an arc, 1t
will come to about the same figure
as one cluster pole. The cluster is
the much handsomer light and fully
as efficient"

To Sneak i'm New Hampshire.

Portsmouth, N. H., Oct. 21.-Col
Theodore Roosevelt is expected in
New Hampshire tomorrow to speak
in behalf of Robert r. Bass, the re-
publican candidate for governor. Mr.
Bass was nominated by the progress
i've wing of the republican party and
Colonel Roosevelt is keenly interest
ed in his success.
The candidates for state Office are
hopeful that the visit of the former
president will have the effect of heal
ing the breach in the republican
ranks and thereby insure the success
of the party at the polls next month
The split between the progressive
and standpat elements of the repub-
lican party is probably more pro-
nounced in New Hampshire than in
any other section of New England
1t began four years ago, when, after
a heated campaign, Winston Church
i'll, the novelist, and leader of the
progressive faction, was oe1eated IOf
the gubernatorial nomination by
Charles NJ. Floyd, the machine can
didate Mr. Floyd failed of election
by the people, and was made gov
ernor by the legislature. Two years
ago the progressives were again de-
feated and their success this year
has but tended to widen the breach
between the two elements.
Because of the difference OF opin-
ion between the rival republican FAC
tions the democrats are much en-
couraged, and with united party
back of their candidate the leaders
| hope that they will be able to place
| New Hampshire in the democratic
| column this year.
