T h re e D a y s.
Count /.epindln is seriously planning
to drive one of his airships across the
Atlantic, according to private advices
received In New York lately by an
aeronautic authority. The news Is
made more dramatic because of the
fai t that the letters say that Count
Zc|>|telin bluiself will pilot the huge
sldp If his health, at seventy-seven
years, continues to remain good.
The report, which originates In a
highly reliable source, says the trip
will be made In the summer of 1915,
by which time the engineers at the
great Zeppelin works at Friedrichs-
hafeu expect to have completed an air­
ship twice the size of the present Zep­
pelins The ship Is to be 1,000 feet
long and fifty-two feet beam, with five
to six motors, and the time estimated
for the ocean passage Is three days.
The plan contemplates that the air­
strip will follow the ocean steamship
lane, so that the air craft will be In
continuous wireless communication
with ocean vessels In case of emer­
gency.

SUMMERING AT
W ill
Know n.
Dr. Colsman, director of the German
Airship Navigation company, which
operates the passenger Zeppelins In
Germany, has announced that the ra-
dh:s of the Zeppelin airship Is now
known so definitely, owing to its con­
st-nation system for retaining Its gas,
that there is no longer any doubt of
th ‘ airship's ability to cross the At-
Inn'ic.
The same Information says It is prac­
tically assured that at least two Zep­
pelin airships will be sent to the Pan­
ama exposition at San Francisco by
way of the ocean nnd overcontlnentnl
Hi::lit. Zsppelin engineers, it Is said,
will visit the United States this year
to test the atmospheric currents nnd
decide on the best route across the
1-01111110111 nnd to select bases for re­
plenishment of the airships en route in
ease the heat of the American plains
lias a more powerful effect on the ships’
-rns supply than over the plains of the
upper Rhine valley.
Z e p p e lin M a y C o m e H e re .
Count Zeppelin, so the private cor­
respondence says, may come to the
United States with liis engineers.
Some time back the count denied a
similar report that he was contemplat­
ing the achievement of crossing the
ocean.
Expert aeronauts in this country who
have visited Germany nnd have been
passengers on the Zeppelins and are
acquainted with many of the com­
manders of the Zeppelin airships nnd
members of the technical staff have re­
turned here, convinced that the devel­
opment of the Zeppelin airship has
very nearly approached the long ex­
pected perfection that would enable It
to traverse the ocean.

J. II. Trimble, one of the leading
stockmen of Texas, Is at the head of
an association which purposes to traus
port camels from the oriental deserts
to those of New Mexico, Arizona and
California and the seuilarid wastes ot
Texas. The association purposes to
import 20o camels and place them on a
ranch on the Itlo Grande, about 150
miles south of Cape Verde.
The areas mentioned, although they
offer great possibilities to the seeker
after valuable metals, are little trav­
ersed either by railroads or wagon
roads, such as would be suitable for
motor trutUc, for the soil, which Is
largely drifting sand, makes the con­
struction of durable roadways Impos
sible.
The camel, with ills thick padded
feet, seems to have been expressly de
signed by uutifre for Just this sort of
travel, and, added to Its ability to trav­
el over these sandy wastes without Ur
lug, the animal's other characteristics,
its swiftness, burden bearing power
and the fact that it can go long dis
tames without food or water, make
It as available for these American des
ert regions us for those of the orient
This Is not the first occasion on which
an effort lias been made to start camel
culture In the United States. Jefferson
Davis, when he was secretary of war
In President Pierce's cabinet, was the
originator of a project for the raising
of camels by the government That
experiment also was made In the
neighborhood of Cape Verde, and the
old buildings, modeled after a caravan
snry in Asia Minor, are still in exist
ence, although now dilapidated.
With the idea that the camels would
be useful in Indian warfare because
they could carry dispatches more
swiftly than horses and that In other
ways they could tie made useful In the
deserts, the government Imported forty
camels, with twelve Armenian drivers
nnd their families. In 1856.
But Just when tire camels were about
to demonstrate their ability to be of
service In the new land the breaking
out of the civil war and the election of
Davis to the presidency of the Confed­
eracy Interfered.
SINGING FISH THE LATEST.

Ringing fish have caused all sorts of
excitement In Bellville. O. The llsli
u variety of bull pout, live In the sub
terraneun streams nnd come to the
surface and sing.
They gather at the surface of cis­
terns and quiet pools In the gathering
dusk and chant In chorus what a prom­
inent poetess of Bellville calls a sweet,
sad. haunting melody, which she likens
to the moaning of night winds through
lonely, brooding piues.
She also believes that the pout In
the subterranean darkness keep track
of each other by their cries and that
the droning sounds nre their cnlllngs
to their mates. But plain citizens who
are kept awake are tieglnnlng to say
harsh things about the singing Ash.
