"Then we'll have to be on the lookout for an avalanche." "Yes, we're making pretty good time," remarked Ned, as he looked at the speed gage. "I didn't know you had the motor working so fast, Tom." "I haven't," was the young inventor's answer, as he looked up in surprise. "Why, we are going quite fast! It's the wind, Ned. It's right with us, and it's carrying us along." Tom arose and went to the anemometer, or wind-registering instrument. He gave a low whistle, half of alarm. "Fifty miles an hour she's blowing now," he said.

"Give me a hand!" he called to Ned, but even the strength of the two lads was not sufficient to shift it. "Call Koku!" gasped Tom. "If anybody can budge it the giant can!" Meanwhile the airship was being carried onward in the grip of a mighty wind, so strong that its pressure on the surface of the deflecting rudder prevented it from being shifted.
