rounced the dimensions of the pro
posed aerial liner, but it will have to
be nearly the same size as the Zeppe'
lin type. AS to speed, it is likely
there will be an attempt to improve
on that of the Zeppelin, which makes
forty to fifty miles an hour. The
famous German dirigible is 472 feet
long, has a capacity for 10000 cubic
feet Of gas and is equipped with
motors having a total OF 400 horse
power, No mention has yet becl
made as to the price that will be
charged for carrying passengers be
tween Boston and Washington. For
some time, it is expected, however
that passage on the aerial lines WI
be IN the nature of luxury, and the
cost will be several times greater
than that for the same distance by
railroad. Tickets WI not be sold on
the mileage basis, that is certain. On
some of the short trips made by the
Zeppelin passenger carrying dirigible
none could get a ride for less than
$50 head, but many paid a gret
deal more for single trip.

turned from the scene OF hcstilities

captured by the rebels and held a

IN my opinion the present trouble

other towns. In the latter ample doc
umentary evidence duplicating Ma

to be found among the great number
OF documents found on the bodies OF
the dead rebels although more than
one leader was counted among the

Neither have the pronunciados the

chief of the pronuncados who cap

received the following answer:
I'VE want the right to vote for

"And what about Madero? | asked.
Do You want him for president?
Yes was the answer, He prom

this would suit us
Another fact which seems to
strengthen the conclusions that the
Chihuahua revolt is due to local ur-
