quarters of a mile. Later when he had
received appropriations from the gov
eminent for the perfection of his ma
chine he attempted q second fight
across the Potomac. He flew for a
distance of 80 feet, when something
went wrong and the machine plunged
into the river. Further experiments
on the part of the government were
discontinued, and while 1t is known
now that the principles of the learned
professor were correct, Langley. at
the time, received nothing but the Sc
verest criticism and ridicule. Profes.
sor Langley was probably the first one
70 experiment with an aeroplane driv-
en- by steam or any like force and his
experiments proved conclusively that
with sufficient speed-producing force
behind 1t an aeroplane could soar
great distances through the air. He is
the pioneer of the aeroplane and re.
cent aviators owe their success to the
principles which he set forth.
In Dayton, O., there lived two young
men known as Wilbur and Orville
Wright. They were interested in the
bicycle industry. In the early COS
they became interested in aviation
and reading up the theories of Lilien.
thai they became very enthusiastic
over the art of artificial flight. In 1900
they constructed a machine and dur
ing their summer vacation on the
coast Of North Carolina they began
experiments with gliding aeroplane.
In 1903 they added a 16-horsepower
motor to their glider and in December
Of that year succeeded in making
flights of $50 feet in So seconds against
a 29-mile wind. In 1905 they made q
flight of "a miles in 38 minutes and
from that time on were hailed as the
first real conquerors of the air.
A New Era.
The year 1909 will go down to pos
terity as the beginning OF new era
in the art of aviation. The records
made show an enormous advance in

but Elijah" had, prior te his death,
drawn upon it for one-ha1s for use In
building Zion City, near Chicago.
A short time before "N'1jah" died,
went the narrative, he entrusted his
brother with the secret OF the hiding
place, known to no other PERSON, and
it was for the purpose OF financing
an expedition to go after the buried
treasure that Doctor" Dowie and
Bishop" Schrader wished to find
$1,000.
At the time of reposing the conf
dence in the ST. Joseph real estate
agent, however, he was not in position
to put up the money, and he began
to look for someone who would ad-
vance the cash to him for a few
weeks, for it was said that the trip
to the island would not take long,
although it was stipulated by Dowie
and Schrader that it be made over
land to the coast of Honduras.
1t happened that the assistant pros
ecuting attorney of Buchanan county
heard of the proposition. He caused
warrant to issue for the arrest of
the healers, and they wero locked In
the county Jail
The day following the arrest of
Dowfe and Schrader, and before their
preliminary hearing, bcndsman
signed their bonds for $1,000 each,
after they had paid him 5000 ia cash.
An hour or two after they were re-
leased from the Jail the surety was
advised that the healers had gone
across the Missouri river bridge. He
grabbed a shotgun, jumped into an
automobile and hurried after them.
They were overhauled at Wathena,
six miles west Of st. Joseph, forced
to enter the automobile and return
and were then delivered to the taller.

First Efforts to Fly.
In ancient times il was believed
that to fly was, by divine decree, i'm
possible. The Greeks and Romans
held that the power of fight was an
attribute only of the highest and most
powerful divinities. During the middle
ages there were many myths and
fables in circulation Of certain favored
Individuals who had flown for great
distances on wings. Frair Bacon
claimed that he had discovered the art
of flying and Albertus Magnus, the
noted philosopher. in his work, Mirabi-
lus Naturae, gave recipe for aerial
navigation. From the sixteenth to the
eighteen century there were numerous
enthusiasts who, thinking they had
discovered the secret that would rem
der them masters of the air, flew forth
from the tops of buildings only to be
dashed to their death. Efforts to fly
by means Of Tapping wings were the
chief causes of the slow progress of
the flying art. Once the idea of soar
ing through the air-a theory arrived
at by Professor Lilienthal In 1891
was discovered to be productive of
success the science of aeronautics adj
yanced by leaps and bounds. The first
successful attempt at aerial fight was
made In the eighteenth century by a.
French marquis, who endeavored to
fy across the Seine from an upper
window Of his house in Paris. He sue
ceeded in getting almost to the oppo-
site bank when he fell into boat and
was rescued.
In the seventeenth century Borelli
calculated the strength, of the pectoral
muscles of birds and laid down the
postulate that 1t was impossible for
man to fly by use of his muscular
strength. This doctrine seems to have
been accepted, and no attempts at ar
tificial flight were made until toward
the close of the nineteenth century.
The invention of the balloon by the
Montgolfier brothers, and their first
public ascent in 1882, directed the at
tention of the world to this new means
of aerial navigation, and in less than
three years after the Montgolfers'
first ascension was made the English
channel was crossed in a balloon from
Dover to Calais by Blanchard and Doc
tor Jeffries, in 1875.
