C., 3who is a son-in-law cf.Mr. and Mrs. An- .drew'Gillis, of Fenelon Falls, and well known in this vicinity, has invented an (airship, which, judging from accounts Ereceived of it, gives every indication of .being a marked success. The following description of Mr. Gibson's machine is gtaken from the Victoria Daily Colonist of July 7th :- “The conquest of: the air is being f9¢¢¢¢®90 your Summer Visitors 0 will enjoy an hour spent in inspecting the many beautiful things we are show mg this season. - Wrights, Farmans, McCurdy’s and .others have done noble pioneer and ex- ;ploratory work, but their aeroplanes are fadmittedly nothing more than clever .3 toys, and it has remained for a Victorian .‘to invent an aeroplane which: bids: fair to eclipse all previous machines,and which ¢ Jewelry.

The Wright machine re- 'quires a wizard or a Wright, the terms are synonymous, to handle it, but the airship now being built by W. Gibson, of Victoria, is more easily handled than an automobile. The ï¬rst point about the machine which strikes one is the engine. It weighs only 222 pounds, and devel’opes 65 horse power. The next feature is- that it goes forward instead of side» ways like the other aeroplanes. It is‘ 65 feet long and only 14 feet wide at the widest part. The next is the abso- lute stability.- It is impossible to upset the machine, as the performances of the model prove. ' Mr. Gibson offered to bet a sceptic’ $1,000 the other day that he would fly to Seattle or Vancouver insideef a year, but the bet was not taken. The delay suggested was not on account of addi- tional experiments who made, but be- cause patents-have to be applied for in all countries. This- will- take time as ‘well as money, and until it is done he ‘does not carctoriski his invention by: BUILDERS Get Your Supplies From Us. FENELON FALLS PLANI‘NG MILL A.

The cost of getting the patents alone is calculated to amount to $10,000. ‘ . A Colonist reporter interviewed Mr. Gibson yesterday at his residence} on the corner of Simcoe and Clarence streets, inspected the partly‘linished‘ airship and watched the performances of a model aeroplane about two feet long. The sight was enough to make one believe in the tales of magicians and the black art. Guided by a most ingen- ious steering arrangement, that marvel- lous piece of mechanism flew hither‘ and thither at the will of the inventor. Taken outside a somewhat high wind did not appear to have any percept- ible elicet upon it. Mr. Gibson claims that one‘of the chief advantages of his airship is its absolute stability, and he proved it by starting the model upside down. To the amazement of the few privileged spectators, in adistance of not more than two feet it had automat- ically rightcd itself! Speaking of his machine, Mr. Gibson said: - , _ “ I believe I have the‘ lightest engine in the world, considering the power it developcs. The lightest engine I have yet heard of is one of Russian make. It weighs about 400 pounds, and dev- elopes 65 horsepower. I don't know the exact weight of- the Wright motor, but I understand that their whole airship weig~hs750'pounds with an‘ engine of- 25 ll'.‘]).' My machine weighs 450 pounds with a 05 11.1); engine. “ The machine is 05 feet. long and 14 There it dillers radically from all’ the machines hitherto made. They all present their widest part to the wind, proceeding, so It has a single plane' built in two parts. Again, my machine is absolutely stable, and no special training is needed to drive it. In fact it is easier to drive than aira-uto- mobile. It is steered by a rudder with a wheel attachment, not unlike a motor car, but apart from that there is but one lever. Push the lever forward, the for- ward part of' the plane is raised, and you go up. Pull theievcr back and the back part of the plane is depressed and you descend. That is all there is to it. “ The machine is driven by eight side rotating in opposite directions just as a bird‘s wings move in opposite direc- tions. This gives a. more ereu light with a minimum of vibrations; The frame of the machine is wood covered: are built of material specially chosen for strength and lightness. The heaviest part of the engine are the cylinders, of which there are four, made of steel-.3 They weigh twelve pounds apiece. The‘ axle is built of forged steel.†Mr. Gibson is utterly conï¬dent of the complete success- of his machine, and as he is essentially a practical? mun-his-con- lidence carries conviction with- i-t. He is a hard. hea dcd Scotsman, a native of A-yr- ishirc; He came out to this country as a child, and lived for nearly 25 years in the province of Saskatchewan. He made his ï¬rst stake out of a machine :shop, and then blossomed into a railway contractor. He built forty miles of the Grand Trunk Paciï¬c. About two years ago he came to British Columbia, where, he became interested in mining, and: only yesterday the Colonist contained * the announcement of the sale by him of . . .. zone of his old )romrties on the west excursxon W111 be run from Lindsay by ; g l 1 coast of Vancouver Island. A natural mechanical genius, his talent has contin- ually shown itself. His latest achieve- ment was to design and build himself a stamp mill, vanner and other machinery for his mine. They give splendid satis- faction, as all mining men- ad‘mit who have visited the property. Mr. Gibson has been working on his iairship for two or three years, experi- menting and-developinghis central idea. However, his private aliairs have pre- vented his giving as muclr time to 1115 .invention as he would have“ wished. ‘New' the sale of his mine gives him leisure to complete his wonderful machine. _ The airship is censtru'cted" carry two passengers with an ample' margin of- safety. It is ï¬tted with three bicycle iwheels,and Mr. Gibson claims he can- start anywhere in 50 feet. Also he can .descend without trouble anywhere on a reasonably level surface suclr as a ï¬eld ior‘prairic. He claims that the machine lean soar to any height or ; within a couple ofv feet _ot the ground. ;Going full' speed at a' height of- 200. feet, glide along he calculates that he could go . 10 miles after‘his 'engine steps before reaclnng :the'greundiby a succession of downward and upward' glides. In any event he stopsvthe engine before‘descendmg, and the machine has an ingenious device by which itcanzalightwithout percept- - ible jar. Mr. Gibson has mad'e many gasoline lynsoconfldence may be placed in his engine, which to an outsider' seems one , of the most important factors.
