Ths wildest flights of whimsical imagin
ation cannot reach bynmt some of the
craxy combinations recorded as airships and
aeroplanes in , the archives of the patent
oflce. Could the claims made by soma ot
the fathers to thse weird machines be
practically realised, the maglo carpet ot
Prince Ahmed and the fabulous Hoc of the
"Arabian Nights" would hide their chag

the flying business.

combined weight of maohlns and aeronaut
would blow a hole In the ground big enough
to hide an elephant What happens to the
unfortunate hero who sits below in the
teeth of this tornado will probably be told
In the supplement application recently
filed.
A' New Tork City man solves the prob
lem of aerlll flight thus: He has a large
gas bag that lifts hint above mundane
things. From the car suspended below
there extends a long hollow outrigger, at
the business end of which Is attached a
metalllo hemlspLiical cup, like that of an
exaggerated anemometer. The aeronaut
feeds Into the tube of the outrigger "ex
plosive bombs" of dynamite, gun cotton, or
giant powder, which are exploded when
they reach ths cup; the recoil from the ex
plosion kicks the Invention forward at a
rate commensurate with the site of the
bomb. On who has seen a Kentuchy mule
push careless persons oft Into eternity can
readily understand , the workings of this
engine.

these patents Is that their claims are all
couched In strictly scientific language,
reading like a report of an aeronautle so
ciety. ,
' No single locality can boast itaelf the
home of these erratlo genlusea. They
stretch across the country and overlap
Europe from Budapest. In Hungary
Washington has one, New York several,
and a man from Baltimore tiptoed Into the
patent of floe not long ago, oatutlously made
til way to the office of the chief examiner
of the airship section, shut the door se
curely, and Informed the astonished exam
iner that his secret was too valuable to
commit to paper, and hence he had come
over to confide It to his ears, which be
would do only after a solemn pledge in
writing, signed by the official, not to di
vulge or take advantage of the knowledge.
The examiner declined the honor, the Bal
timore man Insisted, and upon further re
fusal waxed wrathful, whereupon the ex
aminer called the bouncer.
An Inventor In Highlands, Cat., recently
obtained a patent upon an airship that con
tains all the comfort of home. In the
drawings It rM rabies an enlarged picture
of some sort ot a bug with a row ot eyes
along the side and a ruffle down its back
on Inspection the ruffle resolves Itsalf Into
the railing along the upper deck and the
tyra into windows of th. various staterooms
on the ship.
The lac curtains of each window are
carefully looped back so aa not to obsure
the view. A ataircase leads down from the
batchway that modest women may alight
without undue exposure of lingerie. Every
thing man can vent Is shown, even to the
buffet that Is, all except the machinery
which la probably In the cellar of the
craft with the laundry tuba and the fur
nace.
A man ot Bergen, N. )., ha patented

In the casing, "but." naively remark the in
ventor, "th air pressure from without will

rection," which Is rather vagu sort of
compass. -
From gay Pre comes Edouard Wulff,
with a patented scheme for flying by mean
of "eagles, vultures, or condors." True to
th Instincts of his native city, he fits out
his bird with "corsets," th specifications
of which aa to trimmings, binding, etc., ar
carefully set out
By a strange oversight for one bred In
the city ot fashions, he falls to state what
Is the latest mod for wearing th feathers
on his mo tor a With wise foresight he has
provided for two aeronauts, on on top
among th birds and t other below to
st.er the craft. This Is sensible; a man
busy prodding up a dosen uncouth and be
wildered condors wouldn't have much time
for steering.
B. Exantmlklosy from Budapest, Hun
gary, also baa patented a bird-driven air
ship, but limits his motors to ducks; why
ducks Is not set forth. It la clear, however.
that when the aeronaut gets hungry on ex
tended flights he can eta hi engines.

and th vessel can go from air to water and

naut, caus him to lis swiftly in the air
and sail away to far off land. But
Brooklyn, bent on Improvement In a
pa.nt lately obtained by a man from that
city, has added feather to these slats.
wh.Lh.r to aid In the flight or "to render
the machine more attractive" the patent
does not stat.
nded, there seem to be an epidemic
ot alrabia buaa ba Brooklyn, 4outUesa
escaped from, Mlneola. Still, a third fly
Ing machine has recently been patented
by an imaginative man of that town. This
one stands up In his. If you want to fly
In It, you plant your feet firmly upon the
platform, grasp th jointed rods that run
from this to th wings overhead, work
them briskly back and fourth so as to flap
the wings,, and there you ar yet! Patent
offlo expert estimate that it would take
forty fool power to lift this appliance from
the ground.
"X am much In favor of erecting a
launching platform on top ot the patent
offlo here," said an overworked ex
aminer in th airship section. "Then be
fore we aocepted an application for
patent oh a flying machine, compel the
Inventor to go on th roof, launch him'
self out Into th air, and try a flight
across S.v.nth street and back. If he re
turns, than aocept his application. This
wold save us a lot ot uaelos work and
make business brisk for the coroner."
On man, though hailing from Corn
planter, Pa., ha nothing of th hayseed
about his plan to run th passenger trains
out of business by means ot an overhead
rail on which runs a grooved wheel. From
this the wouldb travler suspends himself
and get along by means of wings at
taohed to his hands and feet There Is a
steering tall fastened between his shoulder
blades, whfreby he can switch off onto
branch roads.
A St Louts invention closely resembles
a clothe pin with the operator sitting ber
tween the forks. Where the head of ths
pin would be Is set the electrlo dynamo,
showing a contemptuous disregard for the
laws of gravitation. Th machine is moved
by the flapping of wings, which are built
on the, plan ot th cellar door of childhood,
Fodallasr a da. Bag.
Th.r. Is something really unique In the
patent obtained by a Cleveland man. The
device consists of a cigar-shaped gas bag,
much like that in the Baldwin or Zeppella
airship. Around It, from stem to stem, run
a spiral fin or van Ilk threads on a
screw. The aeronaut sit on a saddle sus
pended below. When th machine rise
in to the air lie propels himself by operat
ing a pedal which revolves the gas bag.
The fin or vane, thus revolved, bore Itself
through th air like the propeller on an
ordinary aeroplane. This inventor carries
along a sort of aerial bathing suit with
auxiliary flying attachment, whereby he
may disport himself In th great air ocean
above.
That his balloon la so constructed that if
It bursts the bagging with "n.at in the rlg
Singabov, and form a parachut whereby
th aeronaut may descend safely to th
earth." This is commended to anxious
mothers who, small boys have the airship
bug. .
A Boston Inventor uphold th reputation
of that town for erudition by prefacing his
application for patent with a learned dis
course on the fart that heated air rises.
"But." he continues, "disaster frequently
occurs through the use of oiled 'silk or
other fragile or Inflammable material as a
receptacle for such air In balloons and air
ship." He remedies this by substituting
therefor a "large cylinder of som light
metal, preferably aluminum," aa his speci
fications state. Immediately beneath this
cylinder Is placed a cosy furnace. The man
who wants to s his same in th paper
gets out of bed and builds a fire In this
furnace. Thla heat th air In th alumi
num cylinder, th heated air rises, taking
along cylinder, furnace and man, and
away tUey go. This principle, according tg
a Patent office man, explains why many
boilers go up with furnace and engineer.
Omaha. Man on Firing Line.
An Omaha man shows a western
predilection, for "firearms by trimming the
rear of his airship with cartridges. When
thes ar exploded in succession he ex
pects to be driven through the air to his
destination with neatness and dispatch, the
exploding cartridges lending a homelike air
to the surroundings. When his cartridges
are expended he loads her up again as one
would the chambers ot a revolver.

In her midst, Washington had. to take a

tioned, who turns- his "busted" balloon
Into a paraohute. This man's airship, when
It blows up or he gets tired ot sailing
among the clouds balloonwlse, turns Itself
Into an aeroplane without the slightest ef
fort When the gas is out of the bag the
thing is done. He carries a gas generator

WAS HIS LIFE WORTH WHILE?
Story of a Farmer Millionaire and Ills
Peaarloa Mod of
Llvloa.
On of the richest nun In North Carolina
died not long ago. He waa a millionaire,
but he didn't put on any frills about It and
he llvd In a manner singularly unlike the
ordinary man's conception of the million
aire's mod of living. He lived the simple
life. It was so simple. Indeed, that It would
have been painful to almost anybody who
believed to any considerable extent In the
maxim, "Live while you live."
This wealthy man of North Carolina oc
cupied a farmhouse of primitive design.
The house furnishings were severely plain.
There was barely enough furniture for ac
tual needs. The floor waa without carpets
and the window was wlthouj curtains. Most
of the window-panes had been broken out
years ago and none of them had been re
placd. Th little special telegram which
chronicled these facts does not go much
deeper Into details, but all of us have seen
farmhouse of that sort. The front gate
sags on Its rust-eaten hinges, the chimney
Is ragged and moss-grown and "the roof
lets In the sunshine and the rain." It is
hard to conceive of a millionaire living and
dying In that sort of a bouse, but we oc
c&alonally hear of a case of that character.
This North Carolina Croesus didn't have
any motorboats or automobilea He had no
bathtubs In his house. When he got up for
breakfast every morning he washed his
face at the horse trough, winter and sum
Dir, and all the rest ot the time. He
owned a rickety buggy and a faithful horn.
The buggy needed paint. The nor would
hav. looked bettor if be bad. had fewer
burr In his mane, and doubtless would
have felt better for a liberal application
of currycomb, but his master didn't believe
In wasting money on articles of horse toilet.
When the old man went to the country
town he drove thither In his rickety buggy
and he carried his dinner with him In a tin
pall, not omitting to take along a few ears
of corn for the horse. Nobody would have
suspected from his appearance that he was
worth a million. He would have -been about
the last man on earth to be shot by an an
archist who cherished a bloodthirsty preju
dice against millionaires. Nevertheless, It
was ascertained when he died that he
owned stocks and bonds in some of the
blggeit corporations of the country and
wok the possessor of real estate in several
states of the union. The returns are not
all In yet, but his executors figure that the
estate will run pretty closely to $2,000,000.
How would you like to be a millionaire on
that rigorously simple planT Would the
game be worth the candle? Probably the
old man enjoyed It In his crude way, for he
was a miser and a mossback and he mostly
wanted money. Thla Is a strange world, fel-low-cltlzens,
and there are a lot ot strange
people In It! Louisville Courier-Journal.
DEATH IN TREACHEROUS MIRE
Terrible Fate of New York Man
, Canaht la Iwimp ot Jamaica
Bay.
William Elbrecht of Maspeth, 23 years
old, was caught In a deathtrap of mire In
a creek near Old Mill down at Jamaica bay,
near East New York, and died desperately,
while friends were trying to save him.
He had fallen into the creek in the dark
ness of the early morning. While his
friends were calling to him Elbrecht sank
lower and lower. Inch by Inch, Into th
morass.
The tide In the creek which leads from
Jamaica bay Into Old Mill creek was ris
ing slowly, and Elbrecht saw that he was
doomed unless help reached him quickly.
He was brave In the face of his peril.
"Over this way, boys; over this way!"
he called, his voice faint to the ears of the
other men from whom he had become sep
arated while crossing over creek after creek
In an effort to reach solid ground.
"All right, we're coming. We'll get you
out, old man!" they shouted back to en
courage him.
The men had been out fishing Elbrecht
and three others, and being delayed on
Saturday night by th strong tides which
swirl through Jamaica bay reached the
neighborhood of the Old Mill shortly after
mldnlKht. They did not care to pull 'up
Old Mill crock against the strong outgoing
tide, so they landed In the darkness at the
outlet of the creek and sought to make
their way Into the little settlement. There
are several small but deep tributaries of
the main creek, and several times the men
were mired, but managed to struggle out.
They became separated, each trying to lead
the others.
"I've got a way out of this swamp,"
yelled Elbrecht, and the other men, ome
distance away and unable to see him, told
him to com back and lead them. Then
they heard him yell In fright. He had
plunged down Into the muck In a hole
In Long Point crtek, a place drcaJtd by
Old Mlllites, who say it has proved a death
trap for others than Elbrecht.
"I'm In a deep hole and sinking," yelled
Elbrecht.
"Keep up your nerve and yell so we'll
knew which way to travel to tt you,"

The rescuers plunged into other holes and
nearly lost their own lives In the darkness
as they, endeavored to reach him.
"Ilelloo-o-o-o, over this wayl The tide's
coming in and I'm sinking lower. I'm up
to my shoulders," the half erased men
heard the dying man yell. "1 can't get
out."
. The men could hear the tide bubbling
through the creek. Benger fell Into the
water and sunk twice before he grubbed
a large piece of wood and struggled ashore.
"Hurry, for Ood's sake, boys," came the
voice. "I'm up to my neck. Every strug
gle sends me deeper." t
His friends kept shouting encouraging
words.
"It's all right, fellows," was the last plain
words they heard, but Ilcnger ald he aluo
seemed to catch a "Oood-bye, boys."
Residents of Old Mill found the helpless
three, still mired, und also found the body
of Elbrecht, uncovered In the death trap
by the outgoing tide. Ho was unmarried
