The incorporation of an aerial nav
igation company at st. Louis has re-
vealed plans for commercial passen-
ger airship that rivals the widest
dreams of Jules Verne Officials OF
the company declare that within a
year they VIII have a ship that will
carry up a hundred passengers in a
forty mile wind and at a speed of 100
miles an hour
The machine is the invention Of j.

shops of the inventor at st. Louis The
inventor claims that his ship can start
either from the land or water. He de
clares it will ascend straight into the
air or can be launched in the manner
of an aeroplane.
May Be Built In Any Size.
The new airship is called a gyro-
plane, so named from the fact that it is
a combination of gyroscope, the hell
copter and the aeroplane It's pro
moters say it can be built in any size
from two man runabout or a seven
passenger touring car to a monster Of
the air that will carry fifty or hun.

"A thirty or forty mile breeze would
be help rather than a hindrance to
our machine" said the inventor the
other day 1--WE will maintain abso-
lutte equilibrium in anything short of
a cyclone. The usual obstacles that
prevent the flight of an ordinary air
ship will be as nothing TO this machine
of ours"
It is planned TO construct machines
that will maintain n regular service
between cities and states and even
countries.
Carries Four Huge Propellers.
The gyroscope and the helicopter are
familiars principles in heavier than air
navigation, but never before have they
been applied in the manner employed
by Oman. The model of his ship Is
fitted with four huge propellers, twelve
feet in diameter which may be used
in turn for drawing the machine from
the ground or carrying it through the
air.
The machine has been inspected by
government engineers and pronounced
superior to all others. it is declared.
Ten patents have been granted, cover
ing almost every feature of the ma
chine The machine is to be construct

amite and besides carrying four propel-

whole or sound. 'Sanitarium' relates
more specifically TO "A place where the
hygienic conditions are preservative of
health as distinguished from one
where therapeutic agencies are EN-
ployed.' Hence it. is the province Of
