Wrights to Sail From Dayton, O., to Chicago.

Rensselaer residents will begin to crane their necks now at something besides Halley’s comet. A dispatch <comes from Dayton, 0., stating that the Wright brothers are planning an attempt to better Paulhan’s aeroplane feat by flying from Dayton to Chicago, a distance of 250 miles. The date for the event has not been set, but it will take place, it is said, within the next two weeks. The course of the aeroplanes will be near our city and it is possible that they may be seen on their journey to Chicago.
