An Airship Device. An invention which be hope will cayse a revolution in the construction of aeroplane.% add other heavier -Outm- an- craft has been perfected by Thomas Fahey of V.23 Dean avenue. Spokane. ales -in-law et Mrs. Lynn. ot town. Mr. Fahey has received letters patent from the patent office at Wash- ington. His invention is an entirely new pattern of aerial propeller for airships, built on a plan which he he- lieyes will cut down the required speed of the driving shaft from 1.800 or 2,000 evolutions per minute to les than 100 and at the same time give immensely greater driving or litting force. An additional feature of the propeller is that it can be turned et will in any direction, and thus he used both for lifting and for driving an air craft, a feature never before at- tempted. Mr. Fahey has not yet de- cided to construct an airship to make use of the new propeller, hut helieves that other airship constructers will take up his plans. Anderson—Leishman.
