THE AIRSHIP IS BACK IN THE SKY TODAY

It can be seen that it is going in a south-easterly direction about 11 o'clock. There are many mysteries concerning the object and its purpose.

Are we being spied on? An unknown pilot hovers over the city every day, apparently celebrating local events. Who is the mysterious character, it has not been clarified. Yesterday morning, an unusual plane was seen floating in the air, and this caused great surprise. Hundreds of locals saw a cigar-shaped ship flying over the city on Thursday morning, and there were many questions about its origin, destination and history. No information was received. 

The day was extremely overcast, and the strange airship could only be seen with a faint glimmer. However, there are those who claim that they provided a good overview of the person sitting on the stern and driving the car. One person suggested that there was a local merchant in the airship, hunting for the Chamber of Commerce, where he wanted to make a donation. Another suggested that it was a certain political faction that is currently somewhat shakily sticking to its plans and trying to find out "where it is." where he wanted to make a donation.

This morning, at about 11 o'clock, another plane was spotted in the dark sky, and hundreds of requests were heard about where it came from. He disappeared in a south-easterly direction and left no "traces on the sands of time" so that the curious could trace his course. Dozens of people stood on the streets today and "rubbed" their necks until their necks were in danger of dislocation, but they did not become wiser in their patience.

Where the airship arrives from every day and who its pilot is will remain the subject of many investigations until the problem is solved.

AIRSHIP OUT IN SKY AGAIN TODAY

Seen Going in a Southeastern Direction About 11 O'Clock.

WHENCE AND WHERE

Much Mystery Concerning the Craft and its mission.

We are being spied on. An unknown aviator is soaring over the city each day, apparently taking note of local happenings. Just who the mysterious personnage is has not been discovered. A peculiar air craft was seen floating about yesterday morning and great wonderment was caused thereby. Hundreds of local people saw a cigar-shaped craft passing over the city Thursday morning and there was much inquiry as to its origin, destination and history. Nothing was forthcoming in the way of information. The day was exceedingly cloudy and only a faint glimpse could be had of the peculiar airship. There are those, however, who profess that they secured a good view of a man sitting in the stern and operating the machine. One man suggested that the airship contained a local merchant, hunting for the Chamber of Commerce, where he wished to make a donation. Another suggested that it was a certain political faction which is at the present time somewhat shaky on its underplanning and trying to ascertain "where it is at."

This morning about 11 o'clock another air craft was perceived in the darkened heavens and hundreds of inquiries were heard as to where it came from. It disappeared in a southeasterly direction and left no "footprints on the sands of time" to enable the curious to follow its course. Scores of people stood upon the streets today and "rubbered" until their necks were in danger of dislocation, but they are none the wiser for their patience.

Where the airship comes from each day, and who its aviator is will continue to be the subject of much inquiry until the problem is solved.

The airship

The aircraft lighter than air, which is a combination of the balloon with the mover (usually a screw with an electric motor or internal combustion engine) and the system of the orientation control (steering control), through which the airship can move in any direction regardless of the direction of air flow.
The shape of the airships are divided into:
