(By associated Pyess.)

New York, May 11.-Wilbur and
Orville Wright, the American aero
planists, returned from the scene of
their European triumph today
aboard the North German Lloyd
liner Kronprinzessin Cey. They were
about the shyest and most retiring
heroes that New York has welcomed
in many day. Despite honors and
successes they have achieved, they
were almost as unwilling to talk of
their work as when they first came
to New York from their home in
Dayton, Ohio.
9th the brothers looked ;we4- and
appeared to be glad to get back.
They were accompanied by their
sister, Miss Katherine Wright, who
made three flights at Pau recently
and said that she was not frightened
by her experience.
The brothers had little new to say.
Summed up in a few words, they
told those who talked with them this
afternoon and eevning that they had
signed contracts enough to keep
them busy until they could get back
to Europe and sign more; that near
ly sixty Of their aeroplanes were now
in process Of construction, and that
officials Of certain European powers
had asked them to demonstrate that
their flyers can be driven safely out
of range of rifles fire. There was
no information forthcoming as to
whether contracts had been made
with France, Italy, Germany or Eng
land.
A big reception and welcome home
which had been planned by the Aero
Club of America, and other societies
was called off today at the request
of the Wrights. They spent the
evening quietly and consented to
just one public appearance at the
luncheon arranged for tomorrow by
the Aero clu. In the afternoon they
will take a train for home, where a
receptions awaits them. The broth
ers will in all proba bility return to
Europe late in August. This arrange
ment will prevent their taking part
in any exhibitions on this side in
the autumn, such as New York and
Chicago admirers have been plan
ming for them. Their unwillingness
to consider any proposal to remain
here is cited as Strengthening the
engagements with Germany and
Russia.

Dr.. William S. Ament, Pastor and
Missionary.
]. Edward Kirbye, ID. d.

j. Edward Kirbye, ID. d.
The influence of truly great pas
tor is cumulative. Measured by this
standard, the Rev. William S. Ament
d. D., is great pastor as we'll as &
great missionary. After his fi1st
return from China in 1885, having
served there for eight years, he ac
cepted the pastorate Of the Old First
church Medina, Ohio, remaining
here until 1888. During his minis
try here of three years many notable
advances were made, and influences
left are easily discernable in the life
of the church today.
There are three abiding impress
sions in the community as the result
of his ministry.
The people remember distinctly
his heroic aggressiveness. He was
never afraid to undertake task If 1t
promised success. There was the
spirit of venturesome faith and he
sought to make the church an en-
bodiment of this ideal The people
are fond of telling how the standing
committee was reluctant about
adopting certain measures which he
had proposed. After presenting the
case as clearly as he could with it's
promised advantages and seeing
their reluctance, he arose from his
chair and strobe across the room re-
marking, 81 wish I had walking
committee instead of standing
one" There was buoyant enthus-
iasm in his endeavor which drew the
people about him in an ardent devo-
tion. He put this spirit into his SER
mons and pastoral plans.
The second abiding influence was
his conservation to the work of the
Master. He was not concerned with
eloquent sermons but was trying to
minister faith to the discouraged,
and to rescue those who had lost
their bearings in life. He was in
terested lin the outcasts of the com
munity. There was drunkard he e
who enlisted his full sympathies and
help. This man professed CONVEX
sion, joined the church, but only
yin OuSH tit,. stciuy anu peTSlSutut
ministries of DR.. Ament was he kept
until the last. In the letters which
DR.. Ament wrote back to the church
after his return to China there was
always a message for the men who
were struggling against their lower
natures; and when he returned to
the community after "a ten years alb
sence some of his first visits were to
these people. After twenty years the
people Of this parish remember his
interest in the fallen as one of the
great characteristics of his ministry.
The THIRD influence which he left
among the people was an enthus-
iasm for missions. The needs and
opportunities of the heather world
pressed heavily upon his heart. He
was the wise master builder in the
