THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
BRIDGE

Homosassa, Fla, apr. -, 1914.
To the Editor Ocala Banner:
Will you kindly give me space
in your paper in justice to the citizens
of Marion and Citrus counties. The
following was a notice tackled on the
Dunnellon bridge.
This bridge is in Citrus county and
not safe, Marion county will not be
liable for damages" signed d. G. Wat
kins, C. C.
In justice to Citrus county, | wish
to state that this bridge is supposed
to be KEPT up by the City of Dunnel-
lon, Marion and Citrus counties.
each to pay one third of the expense
of repairs, this is an agreement by
the boards of commissioners of the
two counties. Now why should Mr..
Watkins put this sign up, trying to
make people believe that he or rather
his county had nothing to do with the
bridge. Mr.. Watkins as commission
er from that district of Marion should
have the interest of his people more
at heart than to leave the bridge in
such dangerous condition and
create such an impression against
Citrus, when he without question
knows the agreement.

ESCAPED SERIOUS ACCIDENT

Mr.. David Gamble, while walking
alongside the Atlantic Coast Line rail-
way tracks the other afternoon, was
struck on the arm with such violence
that he was felled to the ground. but
fortunately fell away from the tracks
and thus escaped serious injury.
Mr.. Gamble is very deaf, and ordi-
narily takes the precaution to look up
and down the railway when walking
along it to see if the tracks are clear.
but on this occasion he was perhaps
absorbed over the war news, and neg
lected to take his customary precau-
tons.
He says that the "crack" on his arm
was quite severe, and he thought that
it was broken, but gradually 1t is be-
coming normal once more.
Mr.. Gamble says that in future he
will give the railway tracks as wide
a berth as possible.
While regretting Mr.. CANDLES &C
cident his friends are rejoicing that
it was no worse.

MODEL A|RSH|P
SHOWS PROMISE
Man in Bismarck With Invention
That Seems Certain to Be- r
come Famous.

Out in California this week, mill.
tary officials of the United Sta,es
government are conducting tests OF
different kinds OF aircraft for the
purpose of increasing the efficiency
of this country's aviation corps for
military defense. And even while the
tests are being conducted, the inven-
tor Of an air-ship model which shows
every promise of being THE most for
midabls fighting craft yet produced,
is in Bismarck demonstrating The
machine and trying to interest enough
people to secure the funds to manu-
facture and market the invention.
Back of this invention and the ef-
forts of this inventor to get his patent
before the people, is the story of a
man who HAS worked with an indom-
table spirit, against obstacles that
have seemed overwhelming, a story
with it's full share of pathos.
The inventor OF this air-machine,
Clarson by name, IS an interesting
man. He is of the type which has
left it's Imprint on the civilization OF
the west. He is stationary engi-
'neer by profession. but that work has
been supplanted by his consuming
ambition of placing his Invention on
the market. He was the first man to
operate donkey engine in the Black
Hills, and he has a fund of stories OF
those early days in the west. One
day he was working out in Montana
at a mining camp, going through the
usual routine connected with the op.
GRAFTON of the big steam engine. Sud
denly, an inspire, ion came to him. 1t
was the idea which finally resulted
in the air-ship model that he had pat
ented year ago. At first he did
not succeed with The idea, but he
could not shake it from his mind and
he finally set to work upon his first
model
Sixteen Years. Work.
That was sixteen years ago, and it
was not until year ago that he was
satisfied that he had perfected his in
vention Then he secured patent pa
pers and stock company was organ
lied under the laws Of Montana.
Every move during those sixteen
years was made with painstaking
caro,-he has been sure of his ground.
The way the model looks now, there
is very little uncertainty about it..
The experience of other machines Of
the same type have proved what this
one will do, and his additions are Of
the nature that can be made certain
even in 1he little model He seems
to have the goods, as far as the in
vention goes-but he has failed so far
in the exploitation of his product.
The Machine.
His invention is similar to the
German Zeppelin, that air craft which
right now is taking such a prominent
part in the European conflict, and is
also somewhat similar to the ma
chine used by Roy Knabenshue. 1t
is in the control Of THE machine, that
Clarson's invention is radically diff
ferent.
Like these two models already in
use, great tubular gas bag Of rub
berized silk is used to give lifting

Both Sides Claim Victory.
Both sides claim success, but the
French alone admit III places they
are compelled to fall back. Gener-
ally, however, there is little, or no
change in the situation. The lines
are swinging and swaying as they
have done for weeks.
The same is true of the situation in
the east. In the present battle on
the Vistula river, from Warsaw, south
of the Pilica river, the Russians scor-
ed an important victory in driving
the Germans back and capturing
many prisoners, besides guns and am
munition. But the defeated army,
when it gets back to a selected posi-
tion can entrench and start another
siege and battle, such as onthe Aisne
river in France
Germans Holding Their Own.
Southwark off Pilicia, the Germans
still hold the Vistula river, except in
front of Fortress Ivangorod, where
they were driven back by attacks
from the ronghold. The Austrian
army, often described as. routed and
destroyed in Galician battles, has
sprung to life again, attacking the
Russian lett.
The Germans claim victory over
the Russians west Of Augustowo and
Suwalki, showing the Germans are at
tempting another advance from East
Prussia.
Capture Thirteen Steamers.
All these movements have brought
the belligerents no nearer their goals.
Tonight the admiralty issued re.
port stating the German cruiser, Karl
suke had captured thirteen British
steamers in the Atlantic.
1t is officially communicated to.
night from Paris:
"On our left action continues with
great violence, notably around Arras,
Labasse and Armentieres. The AL
lies lost some ground around LaBas-
Sc, but won some east of Armentieres.
Generally speaking, on this part Of
the front, the situation remains the
same. To the north of Aisne, our ar.
artillery destroyed three German bat.
teries.
Heavy Battle Raging.
In a British casualty list, dated
October 18, ten officers were killed,
including Lieutenant Sir R. G. Duff.
Second Life Guards, and 21 wounded.
A heavy battle is raging in Bel
gium about 20 miles south of the
Ghent- t-Bruges line, north of Roulers.
according to a Sluis, Holland, dis
patch Rouler1s was bombarded by
Germans again Thursday. Fugitives
from Roulers declare that 40 inhabi-
tants of that town were shot by Ger
mans during the invaders occupa-
tion and all prominent citizens were
taken as hostages. There is no con-
firmation OF the report that the Allies
have broken through the German
lines near Eecloc.

WILSON D0DGES COTTON
.fILLIbUSTfRS when
they seek interview

Il Washington, DspC., Oct. 23a--EWith
congress tied up by a lack Of a quor-
UNI in both houses, the cotton belt
senator's and representative tonight
made a vain appeal to the President
for aid to compose the situation by
securing co,ton relief legislation and
clearing the way for the delayed final
adjournment OF the session. After
again blocking the adjournment by
obstruction tactics, the cotton relief
supporters went into conference and
decided to appoint a committee Ito
wait upon the President. However,
when asked for an interview, the
President, it was stated, would be
busy with important state depart
ment conference until he Left Wash
inston at midnight, and therefore
would be unable to meet the commit
tee.
The subsequent departure Of the
President for Pittsburgh, where he
will address a Y. M. c. "a. celebration
tomorrow, brought to an end talk that
the President, might prorogue con-
gress. All efforts Of democratic lead
eres to secure an agreement to ad-
journ failed, and Southern members
determined to continue obstructive
r1aoIics until the legislation designed
to aid the South passed. The opinion
is general this will prolong the ses-
sion indefinitely, certainly until after
elections. A general exodus Of men,
