repent Langley, Of the Smithsonian
Institution. at Washington, ID. e.,
proclaimed to the world that he had
solved the problem of flying in the
air. His machine fell into the PO-
tomac River when he attempted TO
fly it, owing to the fatal error OF
trying to catapult the flyer into the
air with the aid Of springs. he
spent twenty years on his inVeh-
ton. This disaster brought much
derision from the public and great
grief 10 the aged inventor.
On May 28th the old machine was
repaired without altering the ori-
ginal mechanism and taken onto the
field. Curtiss. the famous pilot,
climbed into the seat and was away
under much the same condition as
would prevail in a flight OF the lat
est model aeroplane. thus demon
strating that the inventors theory
was right.
Had the Government taken up his
work and expended little time and
money on it. the flying problem
would have been solved long ago.

and fixed principles. He won his
livelihood by the hardest labor, and
struggled always to serve others. He
lived to gain national recognition,
because of service rendered, and died
one of the best beloved citizens OF

Tracks were washed out, small town below Tucson was entirely demolished and the whole country covered to depth of several feet with water. At Florence the ap- breaches to the big concrete bridge over the Gila river have been carried away so that no crossing can be made. The river was the highest ever known, surpassing that of 1891, when one of the greatest floods in the history of the southwest did large damage along that stream. The storm is continuing and it is probable that the melting snows in the mountain will bring down another flood of water. The loss is estimated at 2,000, COOS.
