zeppelin Anniversary.


THIS IL the eighteenth anniversary
OF the Zeppelin airship. as 1t was on
July 2. 1900 that the first trial of this
air-monster was made at Lake Con-
stance. The Germans expected great
things of their Zeppelins. but they
ave been q miserable failure from a
military point of view and up to date
have accomplished nothing more than
to kill women and children n their
raids over England and France.
The development of the Zeppelin
airship In the last eighteen years has
been marked by many tragedies, and
hundreds of lives were lost In bring
ing 1t to its present stage of develop
ment Before the war the name OF
Zeppelin was a synonym for terror In
England, but since the English have
been able to see what airships can do,
their fear has entirely disappeared.
Count Zeppelin's first airship, con.
structed In 1900, consisted of a row
of seventeen balloons, confined In a
rigid cylindrical shell 416 feet in
length and with a diameter of thirty
eight feet, with pointed ends and O
capacity of $4,000 cubic feet. At the
beginning of the war the largest mill
tary Zeppelin had nearly twice this
capacity-7so, 900 cubic feet-and a
length of 512 feet. The balloons In
the cylinder served to lift the airship,
while large screw propellers were used
to drive ii. The structure was steered
by a pair of rudders. one forward and
one aft. The crew and passengers
occupied two aluminium cars, sus-
pended below the body of the balloon
shell.
The first trial OF the first Zeppelin
was over Lake Constance. With hv
persons on board, the Zeppelin
reached a height of 1900 feet above
the lake and travelled three and three
quarters miles in seventeen minutes.
Count Zeppelin was not satisfied with
the trial, and In 1905 he produced a
new and improved alrship in which
the capacity was vastly Increased, as
far as the engines were concerned,
without q corresponding increase In
weight. In 1910 he built a passenger
carrying ship, the Deutschland, but 1t
was Don wrecked. Many of h early
Zebpeiins came to grief. and the vart-
Gus dirigible disasters were attended
by a heavy sacrifice of life.
