Toledo, 0. July 1—One of tha most remarkable flights ever made in an airship was performed during the day by A, R, Knabenshue, who sailed through the air a distance of three miles; landed on top of a ten-story oflice building in twenty-five minutes from time of starting and then re- turned to the depot from which he ‘ started. < { The day was ideal for the daring feat. A light wind was blowing from the east and Knabenshue sailed his aerial craft directly in the face of this wind. Two days ago he declared he would sail down town and alight on the top of a fen-story building. When he left the starting place he directed the ship straight for the city, ‘When halt the distance had been ered an upper current of air carried him up fo a disiance of 3,000 feet. But the nervy director didshot lose control { of his machine for a moment and steered it directly for the heart of the city. Business was entirely suspended and the entire population gathered in the streets to witness the course of the ship. When directly over the sky- scraper Knabenshue directed his craft downward and alighted on the build- Ang with the ease and grace of a hird. The return trip, with the wind, was i made in ten minutes. | Fifteen Years for Assault.
