between two sets of inclined wings,
held rigid. Suspended upon this rod
was to be the little gasoline engine
which was to operate screw propeller
very much like that used by steam
ships. This propeller was to lie placed
between the wings so that the back
wing would be behind the screw. To
the rear of the back wing would be the
rudder, which would have apparatus
for lateral and longitudinal steering
At last the ''aerodrome," for that was
what he called his airship. was launch
ed. The engine was set for only two
minutes, for the airship had not been
built large enough to carry man, but
the machine scared into the air as
gracefully as bird, and when the en-
gine had spent its force the machine
descended lightly to the ground en-
tirely uninjured. This was several
years ago, and since then in the seclu-
sion of his laboratory Professor Lang
ley has been working upon larger
airship. one which can carry larger en-
gines and which can carry an engineer
to operate it.
1t is necessary for Professor Lang
leys airship to move with great rapid
ity to remain suspended in the air. 1t
will be capable of infinite development.
The wings. always set, will act some
what as a parachute in case of acci-
dent to the machinery, so that there
need never be any drops through the
air. as in the case of Santos-Dumonts
balloons.
With the Improvement in the hard
ening of aluminium the steel bar used
for this machine and the material of
the engine will be still more lightered.
Professor Langley said few days be-
fore the beginning of the twentieth
century that he believed aerial naviga-
tion would he fact in the first decade
of the century. 1t would certainly
seem that the prophecy of such eau
tious and scientific investigator would
be of some value.
Sir Hiram Maxim, inventor of the
Maxim gun, has also been experiment
ing in aerial navigation, but has not
taken the public into his confidence.
1t is said. however, that his airship de-
pends upon the principle that the air
is a sort of plane, down which birde
slide and with the force gathered in
the descent are able to go up again
with but little propelling assistance.
He calls his machine an aeroplane. He
uses a propeller, though not to tie
same extent as is the case with Pro
fessor Langley. The wings Of his ship
are very much larger than those of tie

Itiated it would seem that his plan is
essentially more dangerous than that

This method will always be too un-
certain and dangerous for commercial
purposes. Every increase of load nee
essarily increases the size of the bal
loon to support it, and every such in
crease adds to the danger.
This danger was illustrated very
strikingly in the recent Mediterranean
accident. The ship became mixed up
in a squall, and the efforts of Santos
Dumont to right matters only tipped
over his gasoline engine, making an
explosion imminent. The experience
proved that in all such cases flying ma
chimes of the Santos-D Dumont type
would be most dangerous; that passen-
gers in them would, in fact, have al
most no chance of safety.
Professor Langley started out on an
entirely different theory. His aim has
been to eliminate the balloon altogeth-
er and depend on winglike planes to
support his machine. For twenty years
he has been trying to find out why
birds fly. He found that birds flew
with apparently little effort; that the
secret of their flying was that they de-
vcloped great power in comparison to
their weight But he failed To discov-
er how this power was generated.
With this question before him. Pro
fessor Langley set about inyenting an
engine which from less than ten
pounds weight could generate one
horsepower Of force.
In this he was finally successful. An
engine was invented which could gen
crate Il horsepower of force from seven
pounds Of weight all told.
The next question was how to CON
struct the airship itself After years
of experiment the plan hit uron was
this: a long steel rod was to be held

w W Dumont, the daring Bra
lillian aerOnaut, public at
tention will be attracted to the recent
advances made in machines for navi-
eating the air. NJ. Santos Dumont' s
trip here this year is mainly for pur-
poses of experiment. While here he
will prepare for the great balloon race
which takes place next year at the St
Louis exposition and for which a prize
of 100000 has been offered for the
most successful airship.
1t is said that very large number
of applicants for the privilege of par
taking in the st. Louis contest have
been heard from. Professor Langley
of the Smithsonian institution and Oc-
tave Chanute, Chicago aerial expert
menter of considerable note, are to ar
range the terms of the tournament 1t
has already been decided that the
plans presented shall be subjected to Il
searching practical test before any
man is allowed to risk his life at st.
Louis This will deprive the contest
of what might otherwise be very dis
agreeable and unpopular feature.
1t is planned by the management of
the exposition to make this one of the
most remarkable tournaments ever
held. The management states that now
that automobiles, submarine boats and
wireless telcgraphy have been made
commercial facts the st. Louis cXposi-
ton will become renowned in history
if through its encouragement and the
money furnished in its prospective
prizes some inventor is enabled to
build a machine which can really fly
through the air, subject to the control
of man.
1t is not unlikely that the exhibition
which will be made at st. Louis of the
possibilities of balloons and airships
will have much to do with the future
public support of a financial character
which will be given to enterprises for
the development of aerial plans at
least for long time to come. Evil
dence of the belief that there is a
commercial future for enterprises of
this kind is found in the fact that very
recently corporation was organized
in West Virginia empowered to build
and operate apparatus for carrying
freight and passengers through the
air."
Down to the present time Santos
Dumont has invented and built seven
airships, with which he has had vary
ing success. Each successive machine
has embodied some new idea CLEANED
from previous experience until now he
has an airship which, he claims, can
be steered in any direction. This he
has partially proved, but complete sue
cess has not yet crowned his efforts,
for on two occasions he nearly lost his
life by accidents in midair.
Despite all the inventions and all the
claims that have been made, the fact
must be faced that thus far only
two inventors have produced airships
which can lay any claims to practica-
bility. Santos-Dumont has shown the
practicability of dirigible balloon,
ana IrOIeSSOr >. L. LdnSley Ol lHe
Smithsonian institution at Washington
has shown the possibilities which lie
in airships.
The old fashioned balloon could nev-
er be of any value for commercial pur-
poses. for the very reason that it could
not be steered. Santos -Dumont there
upon set himself to the problem of in
venting a device by which the old bal
loon theory could be availed of to keep

The marvellous experiment in Paris,
upon which occasion the young Bra
lillian sailed up to and around the top
of the great Eiffel tower and returned
to the desired spot, showed with what
success the Brazilian had attacked the
problem. But Santos Dumont's theory
