ZEPPELIN AIR CRAFT.
Aluminium Girders and Hoops Line
 These Monster Balloons.

. These Monster Balloons.
 The technical details in the construc- ton of Zeppelin air craft are explain ed in a journal named the Aeroplane The visible exterior part of the Zep- pelin Is merely the cloth or fabric cov- ering of the framework, which consists of sixteen girderS made of very thin aluminium. The glrders run from end to end of the ship. parallel for most Of their length and turning Inward to meet one another at nose and tail. The cylindrical body of the Zeppelin may therefore be said to have sixteen sides on account of the sixteen girders.
 To keep these longitudinal gtrders, or "stringers," in position there are tbwartship girders, which run like hoops around the ship and act like the ribs of a boat. There are generally about eighteen hoop girders, spaced an equal dxtanCe, one from another, and thev are braced across and across in- side each hoop to the next by wire bracing. so that they cut up the whole skeleton into a succession Of compart' mepts, each of which-exCept the end compartments-ha flat ends and six teen sides.
 In each of these compartments Is a gas bag standing on its edge. The idea is that If one gas bag springs leak or Is punctured by a proJectiLe only that one bag cOllapses, and the weigbting of the ship Is so arranged that even If four or five gas bags are entirely dedated those that remain Will float the ship after all ballast, ammuni- ton and other nonessentials have been thrown oyerboard.-LondOn Standard.

Both of his legs were bruised up.
Mitchell Wright, of Hickman,

Samburg party were brought to
town and given medical attention
by DR.. Chas. Curtin and were able
to return home later in the even
ing.
The accident occurred just af-
ter the bali game and hundreds
of people soon 'flocked around
the wreck and rendered first aid.
Both cars were badly smashed
up and had to be dragged to
town. The pair bill on the
Ford will very likely amount 10
almost the worth of the car,
while the big REQ is probably
$3.50 worse off as result of the
collision. 1t is next to miracu-s
lous that some one was not kill

Persons who witnessed the ac-
cidenf seem to be unable to fix
the responsibility for its occur

suit of a singular circumstance,
in which the ordinary rule of the
road did not apply and the driv-
ers mistook the intention of each
other.

Reference has heretofore been
made to the splendid work done by
the Boy Scouts of America in pro-
noting the sale of the first issue of
Liberty Loan bonds. Though pos

it has been carefully figured out that
subscriptions aggregating some $23,-
100000 were taken in by the Boy
Scouts representing $4,000 individ-
ual subscribers.
Seven thousand six hundred and
eighty-siX Boy Scouts of America

selling ten or more Liberty Loan
bonds. and will receive in time the
badges of honor.
