Shenandoah,’ Oct, 10.~ Few voyages in history have fure nished more thrills in as short a time as the navigation of the first pusses of the Rocy Mountains by the navy dirigible Shenandoah, Driving ahead at a speed of 74 miles an hour with a wind thut roar- ed through the tunnel-like canyons, the glant craft at times rose gradu- ally until, between the highest peaks, it was at an altitude of 6,800 teet, following a new and unchart- ed course with oply a winding white ribhon of highway and a glistening black railway track as uncertain guides, At other times it skimmed the ground so closely that frequents Iy jagged mountains almost walled in this leviathan of the skies, Before reaching the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, the Shenane doah passed over El Paso last night. Sailing over the mountains, twisting, turning, rising, falling like a great bird until the tortuous Rio Grande river glistencd mhead, the giant t turned her nose toward the city's lights, hovered a while over border metropolis and then crossed the Pacos river, leaving the Texas plains behind at 7:50 p. m. Soon the Shenandoah was in the foothills of the Rockies and in & few minutes mounted from an @lti- tude of 2,400 feet to 6,200, The ears and eyes of those aboard reacted ta the rarified atmosphere and the im- mense bags inside the tubes, which had been only partly full during the previous two days of the cruise, were contracted and straining against their network of cords. With every additional rise, the alr pressure diminished and some expanding gas was released to prevent bursting the bag: The peaks, thrown into strange shapes by the moonlight, seemed to come forward to grasp the graceful and then fell back. The motors were driving through the air with 1,500 horsepower and the winds were stralning at the airship, but like an ocean liner she respond- some- imes quivering but always going swiftly and surely forward. The roar of the wind on taut eardrums was the only proof of the hurricane over the mountain tops. At Sierra Blanca at 10:15 p. m., the Shenan@eah had an altitude of 6,400 feet and her trailing shadow bhelow was registering 60 miles an hour over the ground. Both roads swung into a long curve and she followed with the wind whistling against her sides. The rocky walls stood away less than her length on either gide, but the motors drove her | forward and she obeyed her rud- ders and rose higher and higher from the jaggéd passes until she soared qver the next ridge away from, the railroad t s which dis- appeared through a tunnel. I'ort Handodk, on the Rio Grande, was reached at 10:45 o'clock and the most of the mountain passes had been negotiated, The welcome of the Shenandoah by El Paso was an enthusiastic one. | The craft swung up the forth bank of the Rio Grande averting a.loop of the winding Triver. Soon the roar of whistles, the flash of waiting automohile lights and a big search- light throwing her length into re- lief against the sky evidenced El Paso's welcome and that Texas had been crossed in 14 hours of saffing.- TLieut.
