GREAT singer DEAD
Ira D. sankey Transferred to
the Choir Celestial
THE WORLDS GREATEST SINGER
Former Companion of Dwight L.
Moody and the Greatest Hymn
Writer of the Present Day Passes
Away at His Home in Brooklyn.

New York, -Special.-Ira David
5ankey, known as an evangelist
throughout the Christian world, died
Thursday night at his home in Brook
lyn, but the news Of his passing did
not become generally known until Fri
day. Mr.. Sankey was IS years of
age. For the last five years he had
been Blind and had suffered from
complication Of diseases, broughht on
by overwork. But almost to the very
last he worked at hymn writing. His
tours throughout this country and
Europe with Dwight L. Moody, the
evangelist, brought him into wide
prominence.
Composer of Many Songs.
Sankey, it might be said, wrote the
Gospel hymns of the world. In China,
Egypt, India, Japan, in almost every
language known to man, Sankey's
hymns are sung. He received large
income from his publications and
leaves considerable Of an estate.
Among Mr.. Sankey's most familiar
compositions are "The Ninety and
Nine" and "When the Mists Haye
Rolled Away" His songs are said to
have had a circulation Of more than
5O,00O,0O0 copies.
| He wps rapid composer and wrote
book after book of Gospel hymns.
During the last five or six years Of his
life he was interested in preparing
and publishing the story Of the Cos
pei hymns. At the same time he saw
ed his wonderful voice for posterity
by singing into monographs. The
records were sent all ever the world.
Sankey first met Moody at Y. M.
C. A. convention in Indianapolis.
Moody was So charmed with the
young mans voice that he urged him
to accompany him on his evangelistic
tours. Sankey explained that ne was
married and could not give up his
position. "You must come" said
Moody. ~ cannot get along without
you."
Tours with Moody.
Sankey consulted with his wife and
they cast in their lot with Mr.. Moody.
They visited Great Britain from 1873
to 1875, and again in 1888, and made
many tours throughout the United
States. When Mr.. Moody died, Mr..
Sankey felt keenly the loss Of his
friend. From that time he tried to
conduct the work alone which they
had hitherto shared between them, but
the task was too great. In 1902 his
physical condition compelled him to
give up most Of his evangelical en-
gagements, although he continued for
some time to compile new series of
hymn books. Then came failing eye
sight, which speedily developed into
total blindness. With the blindness
came also nervous breakdown.
After his retirement from public life
the impression became general
throughout the country that he was
dead.
Mr.. Sankey lived in Brooklyn for
twenty-seven years, and it was there
that most of his songs were written.
He was singer from boyhood, and
his voice attracted attention in the
hamlet of Edinburgh, Pa, where he
was born August 2Sth, 1910. At the
beginning of his active life Mr.. San
key was Methodist, but for the last
seven years he had been n Presbyte-
rian. He is survived by widow,
Fanny V. Sankey, his two sons, I.
Allen Sankey and Edward Sankey,
and two grandchildren.

were drawn up so you could not

Heavier-Than-Air Machines.

The principal exponents Of the heav-
ieT-than-air flying machines are Sir
Hiram Maxim. Santos Dumont, Prof
Langley, Israel Ludlow. the Wright
brothers. Henry Farman. and Leon
Del8gTange.
The problem Of aerial navigation by
N Achines heavier than air resolves It
seS into two main components, viz,
power OF sustaining a load In air, and
power or maintaining a proper bal
ance. If these can be achieved, the
factor OF propulsion is comparatively
easy TO deal with. One OF the most
able Of scientific experimenters IN this
art, Otto Lilienthal, OF Berlin, who
commenced his trials q flight at thir-
teen years of age, and continued them
for twenty-five years. eliminated the
question OF motive power, and con-
fined himself entirely with the problem
OF balance. He decided that soaring
birds ascend by skiliful use OF the
pressure produced by currents OF air,
ard that no external source OF power
is needed to initiate them, all the ap-
paratus required being sustaining sur
