XIX NO. 219 OF THE EVENING NEWS NEW GERMAN ZEPP, NOW IN FLIGHT TO AMERICA, IS PALACE OF THE SKIES Shenandoah and Los fm v Angeles Are Dwarf ed in Size. GRAF ZEPPELIN IS BIGGEST OF ALL i By NEA Service BERLIN, Oct. 11. When the great new dirigible Grar Zeppelin taken the air at Frledrichshafen fur her first trip to America, the world will get Its first inkling of the real possibilities of comfort, nafety and luxury in aerial travel It is named In honor of Count Zeppelin, "Graf" being German for "Count." Nothing like H has over flown through the air. The great Ameri can dirigibles Los Angeles and Shenandoah are far surpassed. The floating liner of the air is at last a reality. Some idea of its possible speed Is given by the esti mate of lr. Hugo Eckner, the de signer, that the big ship could fly from Berlin to Tokio in four days. To begin wlih, the Count Zep pelin offers far better jiassenger accommodations than any airship yet built. Twenty passengers can be carried, two to a room. In com modious, Pullman-type staterooms. Their quarters are electrically lighted and heated. Electric ranres In the kitchen provide hot meals; roomy lavatories are fitted for hot and cold water. Gone are the days of the narrow "cat wark" which featured the Shenandoah's interior imng quar ters. The hnnsing gondolas of that airship are present in the Graf Zeppelin, to be sure, but only to house the five powerful motors. The control room is built-in, as in the dirigible- Los Angeles; imd on the same deck are the passenger , accommodations. j 778 Feet Long The Graf Zeppelin Is 776 feet j long by 100 feet In diameter ! nearly 100 feet longer and nearly j ?5 feet wider than the Shenan- I donh, nnd 116 feet longer than the i Los Aneelen. Toward the bow, J along the bollom, protrudes tho ; forward end of the cabin, running hack in a straight line and mrrg- ing almost Imperceptibly with the i keel. The great size of the ship j dwarfs the five small gondolas so that one hardly sees them at first glance. Entering th? cabin at the for ward end, one enters first the con trol room, where captain, navi gator and, helsmen have their Mat Inns- Dig windows give un obstructed vision straight ahead j and on both sides. j Hack of this comes the naviga tion and- chart room, extending I Great Craft Is As Mod ern as Fine Hotel this becomes the dining salon, w here passengers can dine as com fortanly as in a hotel, lmrtug the rest of the day It is a lounge. Dig cushioned sofas run a Ion two walls. From the rear of this compart ment opens the passageway lead in to the stateroquis. There are ten of these, five on each side, hach ono has an upper and a low er berth of the Pullman type. The walls are papered, and then are curtains on the windows, a built in table ami a stool lu each room, llevond the staterooms ar two roomy washrooms, one for men and one for women. At the very bark of the passage opens into the Interior of the vast envelope It self. Uses New Fuel It is not alone in size and lux ury that the Graf Zepplln is a new departure in the world of aviation. The German engineers have devised a new ganeous fuel for Its motors; a fuel that weighs no more than air, and that conse- : qucnlly makes no difference In the i ship's weight when it is rxhauat i ed. The present practice of valv- fng out hydroKen to make up for , the loth of weight as fuel Is con ; sumed will be done away with, i Amazing as the Graf Zeppelin is. however. It will not be long before still another supernirship : comes to surpass it. The Hiitlsh i are now building a vertiahlo i giant, the 1M00, which will go i even farther atong fTe road of ' size and luxury. The IMOO will carry 'Oft pas sengers and have turee decks, or ! floors, In Its living quarters, all built in to the hull. The lower deck will house the crew and working quarters. On the second drk will be a dining room big enough to accommodate tn diners in once, flanked by staterooms, with n roomy promenade running around on the outside.

Qal.. t)ct. 10. Sam Reld, Glenu county's "alimony martvr," was a free man today for the first time in more than three years. Members of the Glenn County Bar association, which, caused Sheriff Itoy Heard to be cited for contempt of court and fined $250 yesterday for iak!ng Keid to San Kranclsfo for a veterans' reunion, pointed out that atlhough the "martyr" was purged of ron tempt of court, he will owe more alimony in a month. Held left here for San Francisco, making plans for get ting the alimony order changed. The former Mrs. Reld, now re married, wus Baid by friend to be willing to let the alimony for sup port of Keid's daughter lapse. The 3t:jrd lufantry association.

The sheriffs attorney told the court he had taken the prisoner largely because he knew assocla j tion with his old "buddies" would (revive his desire for freedom, and so might rid Glenn county of an unprofitable boarder. The court too kthat Into consideration, lec tured the sheriff severely, and clapped the fine on him. The vetrans also paid $212 nec essary to free Keid. He was delin quent by that much at the time the court ordered him to pay or go to jail for contempt in .Inly. I.t MOTHER DESERTS CHILD BY RUSE IN HOTEL LOBBY, SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 10.
