NAVIGATING THE AIR.
Carl Myers Thinks It Will Some Day He a
Common Thins;.
Carl Myers, of Frankfort, N. Y., the
husband of Carlotta, the well known
feminine aeronaut, and identified him
self for the past twelve years with the
problem of aerial navigation, who has
been a guest at the Wayne hotel during
the past few days, is what a theatrical
man might call an aeronautic manager.
He sometimes takes a little excursion np
into thcdoud country to see if the ethe
real regi ms look natural and if things
are all there, but not often. The ascen
sions which he himself has made num
ber onlj* forty-four. He has, however,
a corps of star aeronauts employed, and
contracts with county fairs anil Fourth
of July celebrations to furnish balloons
and experienced air sailors at reasonable
prices, with satisfactory spectacular fea
tures guaranteed. He has also given at
tention to the improvement, of the bal
loon, and fine muslin manufactured
from sea island cotton becomes, when
treated by a process invented by him. a
better material from which to manufac
ture air ships than silk, and much less
expensive.
Anticipating the day when monopo
listic individuals will control the aerial
trunk lines of navigation as well as state
legislatures and slower means of trans
portation lower down, he has continued
investing in aerial property, occasionally
laying by a balloon for a rainy day, until
he is now the owner of twenty-seven gas
air ships, besides a large number of hot
air balloons. His gas balloons are manned
by a crew of thirteen persons, and lie has
a much larger number than that to run
his hot air contrivances.
The result of long study devoted to the
subject and an extensive experience has
been to make Mr. Myers a believer in the
eventual practicability of navigating the
upper air. He is now the prop/ietor of
what is said to be the only balloon factory
in the world, but he declares his convic
tion that such concerns will some day be
as common as car shops or ship yards.
“I have just perfected.” he said, “what
1 call an air velocipede, and shall give
public exhibitions of its capabilities in
the near future. It is provided with a
reservoir containing sufficient hydrogen
gas to support the weight of one indi
vidual. Then by means of a device oper
ated by the hands and feet it can be
propelled in any direction in the air de
sired. The experiments already made
with the machine show its practicability,
and it is easier to run it than it is to pro
pel a bicycle on land.
“The same propelling apparatus on a
larger scale could, of course, be used to
navigate a great air ship, if a sufficiently
powerful engine, not too heavy to over
come the lifting power of the gas, could
be found to furnish the motive power. I
am now experimenting, with encour
aging results, on a very light, simple
contrivance run by successive explosions
of small quantities of dynamite.”—De
troit Tribune.
A Desperate Cane of Suicide.
The Palmer house lias been very un
fortunate in the number of tragic deaths.
It will be just thirteen years ago to-mor
row that one of the most sensational and
carefully planned suicides in the history
of self destruction occurred at the hotel.
Frederick Addison Jeffrey was the vic
tim. He was said to have been a mem
ber of the tirm of Wycfchoff & Jeffrey,
of Peoria. He occupied a parlor room
on the eastern extension of the corridor.
Early on the sth of July his body was
found suspended over the bath tub in his
suite. The tub was filled with warm
water and contained the charred frag
ments of combustibles ignited by Jeffrey
just before killing himself. When dis
covered a stiletto was found plunged
into his left breast, his throat was cut
from ear to ear, a pistol hung by a cord
witliin easy reach, beside it a pearl han
dled razor. His body hung by a stout
cord fastened to the ceiUng. He had
saturated his clothing with kerosene so
it would be easily ignited from the com
bustibles in the tub. He turned on the
water as he wrote a letter, and when the
rope he was hanging by would be burned
through he would fall into the tub and
burn to a crisp. The coroner’s jur.y
was unable to tell which killed him.—
Chicago Times.
A Valued War Uelic.
Angelo Pacha, color sergeant of Com
pany Q, First Michigan cavalry, under
Capt. Alexander, was in the battle of
Gettysburg. On the third day of the
fight when the bugle call sounded he
drank water out of his tin cup. He
placed it in the crotch of an apple tree
and joined his command and forgot all
about it. Last week he went to the bat
tlefield and bought the tree for $25, and
hod the tree cut up and carried to his
home. The cup was completely imbed
ded in the crotch of the tree, and Angelo
prizes the relic beyond anything that he
owns. He was in the city yesterday
and gave away parts of the apple tree to
his old army comrades.—Cincinnati En
quirer.
Arrest of French Bankers.
Considerable sensation was produced
in Paris a week or two ago by the arrest
of three well known bankers on the sus
picion that they were concerned with
the disappearance of a Swiss named
Caudrian. The latter had been a serv
ant of a Mine. Fessart, and at her death
received her fortune of 200,000 francs.
His riches drove him demented, and
since he disappeared the bankers with
whom he deposited his money have been
arrestfed. —Chicago Times.

best medicine for Family Use, as well as

“ I have derived great relief from
Ayer’s Pills. Five years ago I was
taken so ill with

that T was unable to do any work. I
took three boxes of Ayer’s Pills and
was entirely cured. Since that time I
am never without a box of these pills.”
Peter Christensen, Sherwood, Wis. ,
“Ayer’s Pills have been in use in my
family upwards of twenty years and
have completely verilied all that is
claimed for them. In attacks of piles,
from which I suffered many years, they
afford greater relief than any other
medicine I ever tried.”—T. F. Adams,,
Holly Springs, Texas. ,
“ I have used Ayer’s Pills for a num
ber of years, and have never found any
thing equal to them for giving me an
appetite and imparting energy and
