In James L's ttm sion to submit plans and specificaâ€" tions is made, blandly and patiently answers that, by all means, the gentleman may send in his descriptions of the flying machine. Of course, the Patent 0i- fice believes that the gentleman is going to score a failure, but that is not the business of the Patent Ofiice. 11 the gentlemanâ€"as has been done once or twiceâ€"asserts that he has a full-sized machine that will fly, he is asked to bring iorWard the testimony of persons who have seen it fly. Maxim’s Machine. Probably the man who has made, next to Santos Dumont, the best ei- iort at solving the problem of human night, is Sir Hiram Maxim, the gun inventor. He built a huge aeroplane, which Was propelled by a powerful steam engine, and which ran between upper and lower rails. It demon- strated the ability oi a self-propelled aeroplane to elevate itself, but ' was not regarded as a successful flying machine, because it could not run long enough. The engine required so much water that it could not carry the weight of fuel necessary for sus- tained flight. Sir Hiram Maxim nev- er allowed his machine to soar away {rem the rails that held it in subjecâ€" tion for fear it would gun out of fuel and come to earth with a crash, , for no means had been discovered to keep it in control. The fuel difficulty may, of course, be settled by the use of gasoline.
