All sortb of attempts to produce flying machine that would fly have tecn male, bat it has remained for an in genious Philadelphia!! to apply the trol ley system of electricity to the problem. II. Gawthrop, a well known business 1 j man, gives this preliminary description ti I or tne apparatus: This flying machine is to be driven by an electric motor, the jwwer being con veyed by the now well known trolley system to drive a large fan. The body of the machine is a large flat sur face, shutied like the deck of a vessel. the stem part kinged and controlled to gteer the machine up or down. There is also a rudder to change the direction to right or left, and a hanging weight to keep from tilting. Like a bicycle, it will require rune tkill and alertness on the part of the op erator, and will le attended with some dangers to l;-gi:mers. It .should lie kept about 100 feet from tho ground to give leeway, and the trolley firmlv secured to the wire and the wire to the poles. 2Ir. Gawthrop is under the impression that this system, if properly perfected, would enable the distance from Phila delphia to New York to lie covered in ten minutes. Philadelphia Inquirer.

It was by this time growing dark, and the ierson who was following it was puzzled how to continue his investigations. He rode boldly up to the corral and put up his horse. The occupants of the house were too busy to notice his arrival. He then walked to the house and looked through the win dow cautiously. He saw the whole crowd of mourners busily engaged in taking out small tin boxes of opium from the cadaver and piling them on tho table.

Built His Own Church. The new Hovey Avenue Baptist church building is a handsome one, for which its pastor, J. C. Jacob, is entirely re sponsible. A year ago he began to agi tate the building of the structure, but meeting only with rebuffs he decided to go ahead with the construction. Accordingly he liegged the lumber from prominent firms of the city, and with his own hands laid the foundations and erected the suTierstrncture. Six days out of seven for nearly six months past he has toiled early and Lite on the structure. V. ith his own hands he has painted the entire building, and his own ingenuity is responsible for the beauti ful interior finish of butternut, syca more and black ash. Though the prop erty as it stands is worth nearly $5,000. the cash out1 .y by the church has been less than $l,0)0. Muskegon (Mich.) Cor. Chicago Inter Ocean.

His life was distinguished by several acts of bravery. He was at the wheel of the steamer Robert E. Lee when she was burned at Y'ucatan plantation, in 1882. On that occasion he saved a score of lives by remaining at the wheel and holding his boat to the bank. He re mained on the blazing vessel until the very last moment, and only escaped by sliding down the log chain. Captain Stout was on board the steamboat J. W.
