but nothing like much if dropped down the smoke

When of high explosive, such for example, as
a five hundred pound bomb is exploded upon the sur
face OF the earth the body of ncandescent gases formed
at the instant of explosion, expanding in all directions
against the earth and upward and outward the
of gases to be thrown upward with much greater
violence and velocity than in any other direction. In
fact the gases pressing against the solid earth form

not great and there but little effect in horizontal
direction.
1t is well known that buildings situated adjacent to
an explosion of such character have their windows
blown out not away from explosion but toward the
explosion by the rush of air to fill the partial
formed by the uprush of the column of heated cases.
Exaggerated Perils
TT is interesting forecast about what damage might
be expected from high-explosive bombs dropped
from flying machines Let assume, for example, that
the Germans should build fleet of one hundred
planes each capable of carrying bomb containing
hundred pounds of dynamite. and capable of making
trip day to London dropping its dynamite, and
turning to Berlin for another load. And let
that each of these bombs should be capable of de-
stroying the average one building apiece which is
much more than it could possibly do Thus this feet
would destroy hundred houses day, three thou
sand month, thirty-sx thousand year.
Now there have been six hundred thousand houses
built in London during the last ten years. sixty thou
sand year, the German aerial dynamite feet would
succeed in destroying only little than half of the
number annually created.

w Island, on pleasant afternoon and fit
ting aeroplanes flock the sky, it is hard to
realize that the thing actual and, awakng from the
impress of the marvel of it, naturally turn divna
ton to what the future will make of the flying
machine.
Taking into consideration the comparatively brief
time that has elapsed since the first heavier than air
machine flew, and the marvellous strides aviation has
made in that brief PERIOD particularly within the last
twelve months feel sure that whatever obstacles may
remain in the way of the reduction of aviation the
safe and practical will be overcome, and that
planes will be perfected that aeroplaning will become
safe automobiling.
Need after need to automatic equilbration
and stability of the flying machine in it's unstable path
is being discovered and met by of the genius and
cool-headed daring of the Wnghts Curtiss, Harmon,
Hamilton, Paulhan, Farman, Bleriot.
Two things evident-that mechanical flight will
be made safe and practical and that the personnel of
the sterling qualities necessary for reduction practical
utility is available.
What, then, the prospective uses of aviation?
The paramount immediate in times of peace is
SPORT but soon, times of peace commuters will
travel back and forth from suburban homes to large
centers of population by acceptance The time that
be saved and the sport coupled with business in such
travel will recommend its wide adoption.
Cleared alighting wide cleared avenues will
radiate from large cities in all directions, over which
aeroplanes may pass back and forth, with always a
place for safe landing underneath, should anything go
wrong.
Since man first swung club in combat, warfare has
Communicated every invention it could utilize and
often little lead of people tribe another in

SCISSOR. Therefore, naturally inquire of Mars what
he holds in prospect for the flying machine
We have recently had demonstrations of the ability
of the aeroplane to drop bombs warshps coast for
tcations, and cities and have also had our sham
battles couple of aeropanes from each of two French
army corps meet and fight mock duel over Paris.
Little Danger from Bombs
HARDLY anything in the history of warfare has
- made stronger appeal to the imagination than
the of flying machines carrying hgh-exposive
bombs. The wide popular misunderstanding about the
power and effectiveness of high explosives has served
vastly to heghten the effect. There is probably
subject about which the popular mind ignorant
We frequently read of the discovery of new ex-
plosive few pounds of which would be sufficient to
destroy several city blocks.

pursued by Cossacks pulled vial of ntrogycern from
his pocket and poured it bridge which he was
crossing right in the path of his pursuers which, being
exploded by the hoobeas of the horses destroyed the
entire troop
Naturally then, when it is seen that flying machines
easily capable of dropping bombs on anything and
everything underneath the logical anticipation is wide
death and destruction; WHILE matter of fact the
marvel of such bombs not in the destruction they
would becapable of working but in small damage they
could do against warshps cities coast Notifications
Few people realize how big thing battleship is
how little the vital parts of coast fortcation
posed to attack from any direction, and above ALL how
immense is large city like New York. Almost anyone
would feel that foreign fleet like that which could
be sent against by England or Germany arriving
within gunshot of New York and bombarding the city,
would work wide destruction and that should be at
the mercy of the enemy; while matter of cold fact
and figure the of the ammunition and the and
tear of the guns would be far greater than the damage
they could do.
The time has passed when cities may be bombarded
with profit advantage, except for the moral effect,
and the moral effect disappears witness how it
at Vcksburg. For long time before its surrender,
exploding shells became commonplace that they
little needed
When the English reckoned up the cost of their bonn
bardment of Alexandria and compared it with the de-
structon wrought they made the important discovery
that the game worth the candle that the
of ammunition and the and tear of guns had far
exceeded the damage done.
Action of High Explosives
NOV, if the huge projectiles weighing half ton in
metal and carrying large bursting charges of high
explosives Inefficient what expect from
aerial bombs, carrying high explosive merely in
thin casing?
When twelve-inch high explosive projectle lands in
the streets of city penetrates building and
podes its casing provides half ton of steel frag
ments but aerial bomb, such could be dropped
from aeropane would be without the massive metal
casing necessary provide destructive fragments and
such bomb would not have the structural rigdity
to penetrate buildings to any great extent, the damage
the bombs could do would depend upon the chance of
their landing down some chimney down the smoke
stack of vessel other vulnerable point in the
structure attacked.

United States and Alaska. At the be-
ginning of this administration there
were withdrawn from entry for pur-

Since that time there have been with

a total withdrawal Of 96,S44,745 acres.
Meantime of the acres thus with
drawn 1,O61,S $50 have been classified
and found not to contain coal and
have been restored to agricultural en-

classified as coal lands; while 1888, 239
acres remain withdrawn from entry
and await classification. In addition
3s7. 900 acres have been classified as
coal lands without prior withdrawal,

Referring to the report of the COM
missioner of corporations, the presi-
dent says:
The commissioner finds a condi-
ton in the ownership of the standing
timber of the United States other
than the government timber that calls
for serious attention. The direct in
vestigation made by the commissioner
covered an area which contains so
per cent. of the privately-owned tim
Der of the country.
His report shows that one half of
the timber in this area is owned by
200 individuals and corporations;
that IA per cent. is owned by these
corporations, and that there is very
extensive inter-ownership of stock,
as well as other circumstances, all
pointing to friendly relations among
those who own a majority of this tim
Der. a relationship which might lead
to a combination for the maintenance
of a price that would be very detri-
mental to the public interest, and

ing all tariff obstacles to the free i'm

A Politician who Relied on His Intuition

dinary speech in which he had bitterly
attacked the so-called reform element
IN the republican party for causing cer-
new administrations speech that was
a defiant challenge to President HAYES
and Secretary Of the Treasury John

the speech had caused intense excite
ment and was taken to indicate a set
purpose OF the stalwarts, under the
leadership Of Senator Conkling, con-
stantiy to give battle to President
Hayes n his administration.
For some time after I had finished
my recital MI. Tilden piled me with
many questions, seeking particularly to
