But no aero- @ hell firing gun, ex- slow speed sea-planes, whieh could never catch the Zeppelin, with its speed of sixty miles an hour, As to an aeroplane’s ramming a Zeppelin: If an aeroplane charged the big dirigible head on it would either be headed off by the Zeppelin, which, on land, is convoyed by a flock of about twenty-five aeroplanes, or it would be shot out of the air by the heavy guns of the airship. A Zep- pelin carries a rapid fring gun which discharges aixty two-pound shells a minute, and a machine gun that can be played like a hose. For these same reasons it acems unlikely that an aeroplane could dive onto the Zeppelin. The only likely chance for the defeat of the Zeppelin would be an attack from all sides by a large number of aeroplanes, and atill the dirigtble would have much tn its favor, for it can ascend faster than any aeroplane. The Zeppelin has a deck on top from which guns can be fired verti- cally, A stairway to thie deck runs from the lower decw beneath the gas bag. This passageway is entirely cut off from the hydrogen-containing gas bag, and may therefore be traversed freely, There is also an arrange- ment for ascending inside the gas bags, which are open at bottom, so that a man equipped with a diver'’s helmet may ascend into the hydrogen and repair shot holes, &c,, by stick- ing adhesive Cloth over the renta peesnae wieeaei SCHOOLSHIP TAKES REFUGEES TO GENOA FROM MARSEILLES.
