AIRSHIP
Said To Have Been Seen
Passing Over This City
Last Night
A number of people on Garfield Place saw the airship last
night about 9 o'clock, and are willing to make affidavit that
they have sighted the mysterious navigator that has
been creating so much excitement over the country.
Dr. Louis Domhoff, 112 Garfield Place, made a drawing of the
light, which he describes as egg-shaped, red in color and
appearing as though a portion of it was covered with a
curtain, the rays escaping in the center and at each end.
It came from the direction of Price Hill and passed to a
southeasterly direction, disappearing in about five
minutes, and, so far as he was able to approximate, covered a
distance of about 20 miles in that time, moving in a zigzag
course, first up, then down.
Conductor J.C. Gaupel, on the Monmouth street car line, also
saw it. W.J. Klein, attorney in the Mitchell Building, and Fred
Porter, of the Methodist Book Concern, and a number of others
say they saw and watched the curious aeronaut.
