MAKES SUCCESSFUL FLIGHT.
Baldwin Airship Soars Above World's
Fair Grounds.
Et. I.ouis, Oct. 26.—An aeronaut in
the airship of T. C. Baldwin of Los
Angeles, Cal., caused intense excite
ment at the world's fair grounds dur
ing the day by suddenly appearing
over the Transportation building at a
height of about 1,000 feet.
The presence of the airship was not
noticed by the majority of the world's
fair visitors during the flight from the
aeronautic course to the main part of
the exposition grounds, a distance of
about one mile, but the fact of the
flight being made soon attracted the
attention of thousands and the flight
of the airship was greeted with con
tinued cheering.
The Baldwin airship is constructed
along the lines of the popular concep
tion of a Hying machine. The buoy
ancy is secured by a large cigar shaped
balloon and the car, which is long and
narrow, is suspended from the balloon
by many wire ropes.
The motive power is secured by
means of two large propellers or
wings, one on each side of the car, run
by a compact motor, located at the
stern.
Knabeshue brought the airship to
the ground in St Louis, a distance of
about eight miles in a direct line from
the starting point. He landed easily
and the balloon and machinery are not
injured, it is stated.

Twenty-three Knots.
Boston, Oct. 2C.—The armored cruis
er Colorado broke all speed records
for her type of fighting vessel in the
United States navy by covering a total
course of sixty-three knots, or nautical
miles, at an average speed of 22.2G
knots an hour. This was not the Colo
rado's best performance, however. In
a great burst, when approaching the
end of the course, the huge engines
drove the immense hull through the
water at 23.33 knots and this was main-1
tained for a distance of 6.6 knots,!
