! TRANSATLANTIC AIRPLANE.

a Giant Zeppelia.

London, Dea 6.-The Germans are
building an airplane with which they in
tend trying a trip across the Atlantic
and have Zeppelin under construction
with the same idea in view, according
to the correspondent at Berlin Of the
Daily Express.
The airplane being constructed at
Staakan has a wing spread Of 1908 feet
and engines of 1900 horsepower, the
correspondent says. Almost immedi-
ately after the armistiee was signed the
Staakan plant began converting fighting
planes on hand into commercial ma.
~hines intended to link all the European
capitals with Berlin, and dozens Of
planes built entirely Of aluminums are
being transformed for postal service.
The transatlantic Zeppelin, capable
of carrying one hundred passengers and
having nine engines and eight propellers,
is being constructed at Friederichafen,
the correspondent saws. Its first flight
will be in July next, ii the international
situation clears up by that time The
trip is expected to be made in 40 hours.
The correspondent was told OF the re-
markable fight of a Zeppelin in Novem-
Der, 1917, The airship started from
Bulgaria for East Africa with twenty
two tons of munitions and medicines
and crew Of twenty-five. II had ar
rived over Khartoum, in the Sudan, the
correspondents informant declared,
when it was ordered by wireless TO re-
turn because it was learned that the
bulk of the forces, OF General Won Let
tow -vorbeck, the German commander in
East Africa, had surrendered. 1t re.
turned to its starting point four days
after it had left.
Managing Director Raasch, Of the air
craft factory at Staakan, claimed this
airship could have gone from Berlin to
New York and back without stopping

Here is familiar scene in any Y.

Ice-cooled water 'bubblers" quench
the thirst of thousands of soldiers,
and during a 'run' ON the fountains
the "water line" often extends across
the building.
The Army Y. NJ, G. A. is the en-
listed mans club, where he may read,
write letters, buy stamps and post
cards, have bundles wrapped free Of

and meet his comrades for a social

one of the most popular advantages

There were twelve other naval off,
rars who were present and they and
all the other people did lot of cheer
ing and vived me to fare-you-well.
It was great stuff, altogether, and
should have liked to get Il medal every
day.
One day / received letter from
man who had been in my company in
the Foreign Legion and with whom l
had been pretty chummy. His letter
was partly in French and partly in
English. It was all about who had
been killed and who had been wound
ed. He also mentioned Murray's
death, which he had heard about, and
about my receiving the Croix de
Guerre. I was wishing he had said
something about Brown, whom had
not heard from and who knew would
visit me if he had the chance.
But two or three days later I got
another letter from the same man and
when opened it out tumbled a photo
graph. At first all I saw was that it
was the photograph of a man crucified
with bayonets, but when I looked at
it closely I saw it was Brown. I
tainted then, just like a girl.
When 1 came to could hardly make
myself think about it. Two of my
pals gone! 1t hurt me SO much to
think Of it that 1 crushed the letter
up in my hand, but later on could
read parts of it. 1t said they had
found Brown this way near Dixmude
cbout two days after he had been re-
ported missing. So three of us went
over and two stayed there. 1t seems
very strange to me that both Of my
pals should be crucified and if l were
SuperStitious I do not know what I
would think about it. 1t made me
sick and kept me from recovering as
fast as 1 would have done otherwise.
Both Brown and Murray were good
pals and very good men in a fight.
I often think Of them both and about
the things we did together, but lately
I have tried not to think about them
much because it is very sad to think
what torture they must have had to
stand. They were both of great credit
to this country.
The American consul visited me
quite often and I got to calling him
Sherlock because he asked so many
questions. We played lots of games
together, mostly with dice and had
great time generally. After I became
convalescent he argued with me that
had seen enough, and though 1 really
did think so-however much disliked
what had seen-he got my discharge
from the service on account of phys
ical inability to discharge the usual
duties. After I had been at the hos
pital for a little over a month I was
discharged from it, after little party
in my ward with everyone taking part
and all the horns blowing and all the
records except my favorite dirge
played one after another.
Sherlock arranged everything for
me-my passage to New York, cloth
ing, etc. I ran up to st. Nazaire and
saw my grandmother, loafed around
while and also visited Lyons.
After a short time / returned tc
Brest and got my passage on the
George for New York. I had three
| trunks with me full of things / had
picked up around Europe and had
been keeping with my grandmother.
Among my belongings were several
things I should like to show by pho
tographs in this book, but no one but
mermaids can see them now, for down
to the locker of Dayy Jones they went.
Continued next week.
