returned to Clifton Beach, a storm
broke furiously. The house-boat
slipped her moorings and travelled
rapidly down stream for two miles.
where her ancnors oaugnt in ue muu
bottom. A few men were-aboard, but
they were powerless and the storm was
too severe for any assistance to be af
forded by the tags. The small steam
launch tender, the float and three
row boats were lost. They were sought
by the tugs unsuccessfully and the
search will be resumed Saturday. The
house-boat la now nearer the Virginia
shore, where she will remain until
after an experiment. Before the storm
Professor Langley said ft test would be
made Saturday if the weather permit
ted. The flvinar machine waa ao
shaken np that the launching may be
postponed for repairs.- The machine
was all ready to fly this afternoon
when the breeze stiffened to ten miles
