ENTIRELY NEW FEATURES
IN THE EXHIBIT LINE
Two Flying Machines Are Shown Here
for the First Time and Receive Much
Attention.

Flying machines are the big attrac-
ton at the New London county fair
grounds this year and the ma iority of
the crowd there Monday took the op-
portunity of seeing Them one the tri-
plane built by William H. Stebbins and
Louis Geynet and the other a model
constructed by James Murphy. Hun
dreds of people saw the two machines
do verifying but rise from the ground
in the two tents where they are on
exhibition.
In the former tent Chief Mechanic
Feter Desjardns explains to the gazing
public how the mammoth bird of the
air is manipulated, while in the latter
Joseph Desmond gives the points.
The aeroplane, as previously describ-
ed. has three planes, the uppermost
being 24x7 feet. the middle one 2Ox6
a $3.50 horse power Cameron motor
weighing 200 pounds. 1t is suitable
only for an aeroplane of the Bleriot or
Wright type and the owners plan to
dispose of it and buy a new motor of
so horse power. The whole machine
pounds and should have a lifting area
of 1900 pounds.
The aeroplane is the first triplane to
be built in America, although a ma
chime OF the same type has recently
been brought to this country from
able, making it a biplane of the racing
type.
Messrs Stebbins and Geynet are go
ing to Boston the latter part of the
week to inspect the different motors
at the aeroplane show there, aud will
decided upon the nnoter needed for
their machine. They are both mem
bers of the Aeronautic Society of
America, and had hoped to exhibit
their machine at the aviation meet at
Belmont park, New York, in October.
The full-sized model of a flying ma
chine built by James Murphy of 81
Otis street is something of O. departure
from the several types of aircraft ordi-
narily constructed at the present time,
yet ii is ingeniously devised and put
together. Mr.. Murphy calls it an aero
octoplane, from the fact that it has
eight supporting planes, which raise
and lower, the downward movement of
the blades agains tthe air furnishing
the means of supporting the machine.
The eight wings are arranged in a cir
Gle and so adjusted that two or more
blades are acting on the air at one
time, while the others are on their
way back to their highest position, the
result being to keep the craft steady
at all times. Each wing is fan shaped
So inches long and 81 inches wide at
its outer end. In the real machine the
ribs of these wings would be alum
mum, covered with the special cloth
used for planes, and should weigh
about 3 IL pounds each, In the model
the ribs are of wood and are covered
with canvas. The model weighed un-
der 200 pounds and the builder believes
the real machine should carry several
passengers in addition to the three
eight hores power motors which would
propel it. Two propellors, one on each
side, six feet four inches in diameter,
are to drive the ma chine through the
air. while propeller underneath will
assist the wings in keeping it there
The model is driven by a gasoline
engine. and it has to be seen to be APP
preciated.
