First Rigid Airship Built


The first rigid airship built for the
French army, the Spiess has been under
going trials at Saint Cyr and so far the
experiments are declared to have
been successful. The airship was taken
out of its shed in the presence of the
minister of war, and was put through
some evolutions over the aerodrome,
chiefly for the purpose of testing the
machinery and of training the soldiers
in the maneuvers for taking the airship
In and out of the shed
This Spiess airship differs from the
Zeppelins by the fact that its rigidity is
obtained, not by means of aluminium, but
by hollow wood framework covered with
canvas. 1t consists of II compartments,
with total length of $40 feet and a max
imum diameter of 45 feet. Such compart-
ment is filled by ballonet, which adapts
itself to the rigid frame as soon 1t is
inflated. sort of triangular keel ex-

There are two Shenu motors of six cyln-
ders and 1900 horse power, each of which
operates two wooden propellers IS feet In
diameter. These propellers are attached
aft high up on each side of the rigid
frame, which constitutes one of the orig
inal features of the new airship.
The transmission is effected by oblique
shafts % feet in length, with cardan
joints and three supports. The steering
is effected by vertical bipanes fixed aft,
and the stabilisators consist of four hor-
izontal planes, also attached at the rear.
A series of cables stretched across the
II compartments terminates forward, and

Mayor on Trial

The spectacle of a mayor in the dock
facing a charge of double attempted
murder, is one of the features of the
Seine assizes. NJ Firon. the chief mag
istrate of gentlity, is the defendant in
the case which presents all the UNDER
currents observed in the average modern
French novel. In the evening of Decem-
Der 2S, Madame Chabrux. widow of NJ
ChabruX, banker and money-lender. and
her sister, were alone in the villa of
MerreuX. About $50 there was a ring
at the bell. Madame Chabrux, opened
the door to visitor whom she recognized
as NJ. Janet, who had had dealings d
few weeks before with her deceased
husband. No sooner had the so-called NJ.
Janet been admitted than he attacked
Madame Chabrux with a knife, inficting
severe wounds. Her cries brought out
her sister who was also stabbed sew
eral times.
Suspicious pointed to NJ. Firon, mayor
of Gentlity. Both women formally rec
ognized in the mayor the soi-disant NJ.
Janet. their aggressor. Inquiries into
NJ Firons affairs proved that he had
been for considerable time on the verge
of bankruptcy. An old railway time table
found in the villa of Parraux after the
crime bore notes which experts identi-
fed as NJ. F'iron's handwriting. Again,
an acquaintance of the mayors. NJ. de
Burgat stated that on the morrow of
the crime NJ. Firon made full confession
to him.
Against all this evidence the accused
opposes fat and vigorous denials. Love
and robbery are declared to be the mo-
tiyes of the crime.

More Haste and More Speed

From the Saturday Evening Post.
1t costs more money to make the stops
on some electric subways and trolley
cars than 1t does to run the cars. In
other words more electric power is used
up In grinding brakeshoes than in pulling
the train. This applies to trains that
make frequent stops. but must make
speed between stops
An engineer of the London tubes has
found that ON some short runs there the
trains were using considerably more
power IN stopping than in running. On
the London tramways the electric ears
use IS per cent less power on SUNDAYS
than on weekdays for the same runs,
because on Sundays the streets are not
so crowded and the brakes are not used
so often for quick stops Much the sam&
