UTILIZES FORCE

Inventor and Scientist Claims to
Have Discovered the Method of
transmuting the Force of Gravity
Into Other Forms and Sail Air
planes By Dead Reckoning.

the most remarkable discovery of the
ajjo the equal of the "flarabcd"
which the Khvcriiinenl is now inves
tiKnliii. It is iiKiially referred to as
"utilizing energy."
If Kiscnliulli's claims are valid, he
can realize in substantial form this
dream:
Send mi airplane, currying eight
men and 10 tuns of bombs, from .1

This scientist asserts and offers
lo prove it that he can apply this

INW. Nullify, Hut, Transforms.
The idea of transmuting gravity is
not new. Si'icuvc has sought I lie w ay
for gvnerntioas. II is erroneously re
ferred to by sonic as the ullcmpt lo
nullity Ihe law of gravity.
Of course, 1111I11111I law cannot be
nullilied' Km- such laws are always
Median and Persian in their immu
tability. Hut oflcn a law is apparent
ly nullified. Your house is iiljrc. I
break in, to extinguish the flumes. Hut
Iho law of private properly says. I
may not break into your house. I
must, however, break inlo your house
if 1 see therein a blaze consuming the
contents and threatening the struc
ture. I enforce safeguard the law
of private property when I force ou
st If into your house for that pur
l ose- I don'l nullify it. So the law
of. primly cannot be uullitied per
haps John Wiishinglna can transform
tho "force" of gravity as he claims.

earth's wonder workrs, I'erhnps John
Washington Kisenhiilh will do Unit.
He has taken up llio mutter with
the authorities here, anil it is still
under consideration just how se

REG X MISSION

ESCAPES HUNS
Eventful Flight of Americans From
Jassy Dodge Germans at Odessa
and Fired Upon In the Ukraine
Special Train Provided but Many
Adventures Encountered.
l.OXUO.V, Muy 7. In un eventful
flight from Jassy, me itiimanlan
capital, tho American Itcd Cross mis
sion to Ilumanla, which now hus ar-
rlvod in Loudon, oseaped from Odes
sa :i hours before the Cicrmuns en
tered It only to bo fired upon by a
German battery la the Ukraine 200
miles north of tho famous lllaek Sea
port.
Tho (iormuii shells did no damage
to tho Heil Cross train, falling about
half n mile from it, hut several mem-
bors of tho mission, breathed a :dgh of
relief when this came to an end after
five minutes which had seemed liko
hours.
When tho mission left Jassy it was
known that tho journey llke'y would
bo .dangerous, deports In Jassy as
to the whereabouts of the Germans
varied greatly but It was fairly clear
that they wero within 5(1 or 00 miles
of Odessa und that their advance
parlies might be encountered along
the line. Most of tho parties on tho
train were officers and privates of
the French mllltury mission 'to Ru
mania and II was hardly to be ex
pected that German guerilla bands
would mako any distinction In favor
of a few American Jted Cross uni
forms.

The American Hed Cross mission
left on the third of six trains which
curried tho allied missions from .los
sy. Tho first train left at noon March
9 nnd Iho other trains followed at
lnlervuls of two or three hours.
Kach train was provided with
footl for a mouth. Tbcro wero no

In two military food kitchens aban
doned hy Russian troops which were
carried on a freight car on the end
of the train. Thi-eo other freight
curs loaded with rails, ties and rail
way iron ulso wero curried so that
tho road could ho repaired quickly In
case of accident or If tho Germans
had torn up the line.
Tho train on which Iho Americans
traveled was one of tlio most extra
ordinary combinations of railway roll
ing stock ever seen. American doc
tors nnd officers had a train class
sleeping ear whllo the nurses litul a
second-class sleeper. Both curs w'ero
of ancient Russian vintage and with
out water supply or heating facilities.

ulong the way. The engineor matched
the engine. Ho was an elderly Rus
sian of Tlolshevlki opinion, and had

most as frequently as the engine re
quired wood. Ho carried his family
with him In i box car next to Iho en

domestic, affairs required his atten
tion ho stopped the train and wont
"homo" to his box car.
Just outside Odessa the engineer
became dissatisfied with the flow of
rubles and cognac and went on a
strike. The French officers tried to
reason with him, but ho was obdurate
and departed with tho engine nnd tho
box cur, leaving tlio remainder of the'!
train standing on tho main line. He
had chosen a rather critical time, for
reports were current that the Ger
mans wero likely to reach the rail
way at any moment. After some do

somo of their advance parties already

englnocr went on strike.
Tlio striker apparently suffered' a
chango of heart soon after he left the
train, for tho next day when the
train was a hundred miles or so
beyond Odessa, ho with his engine

He begged the French of.icers lo
take him back on their rn terms.
