Making AirpIane More Handy.

From Dayton, o.. from whence came
the news. at first incredible, that the
problem OF mechanical flight had been
solved, now comes the news, almost
as hard to believe, that there has been
invented and successfully tested there
a propeller for airplanes that has some
thing of the diversity of action pos
sessed by the motor organs of birds.
The vanes Of the new propeller, it Is
reported. are not immovable On the
central shaft, but can be more or less
changed as to angle with that shaft
to meet the aviator's will or need.
If this has been done without intro
du mug weakness that goes with COM
plsSity Of mechanism. the operation
of airplaneS, especially at the enor@
mously important moment Of start
ing and alighting will be improved ex-
actly where it most needs improve
ment. Already wonderful things are
done with these machines, but the
sparrow that flies to and stops on tel
egraph wire or a slender twig does
something at which the most skillful
aviator hitherto has looked In hope

That propeller with movable vanes
would permit the emulation of the
