IN the apartments of a pleasant man
nered young man on the ninth floor of
the Waldorf-Astoria there hangs sus
pended, from the chandelier a big Inflated,
red bag, to -which are attached several
skeleton like appendages by means of
almost in risible -wires.
The young man is SI. Santos-Dumont.
and the contrivance suspended from the
chandelier is a model of his airship No. 7.
with which he Is confident of winning the
prize of $100,000 offered by the managers of
the St Louis Exposition to the aeronaut
who can wing his way the speediest across
the Exposition grounds.
"While beguiling the time in reading his
favorite French poets or being entertained
by bis friends in this city. M. Santos-Dumont
Is awaiting the arrival of an official
of the Exposition, from whom he is
anxious to learn the particulars of the
airship race.
He points out the fact that it will cost
him In the neighborhood of 530.000 to bring
his dirigible balloon to this country to
compete for the prize, so before commit
ting himself to expend this sum he nat
urally wishes to learn whether the terms
and conditions warrant him In engaging
in the enterprise.
"No, I haven't yet taken a flight In my
No. 7," said 1L Santos-Dumont, "but I'm
-very well able to Judge of Its capabilities.
The airship is still stored in my airship
house, at Passy. It Is no small matter to
inflate a gas envelope & metres long and
seven metres In diameter; but I'll prob
ably take a couple of trial flights across
Paris in February.
"Danger? No. I've never been afraid of
that. I haven't worried myself much con
cerning the peril from fire. The fire from
jny engine isn't likely to attack the bal
loon. The only danger lies in the fact that
the balloon may burst. In order to drive
the airship through the air at a speed of
20 or 30 miles an hour the gas envelope
must be as hard and solid' as wood. The
shrinkage or the escape of gas. is a serious
matter, but I think the arrangements
made In my No. 7 will provide against
any such contingency."
"What first led to your interesting your
self in air navigation?" he was asked.
Five Years' Experience.
"Love of mechanics," was the quick re
sponse. "That induced me to take it up.
I've now had five years of experience at
It, my first attempts, quite naturally, be
ing confined to ballooning."
To the question whether he considered
It probable that some unknown aeronautic
genius might enter the lists at St. Louis
and wrest the laurels from him, M. Santos-Dumont
replied:
"I certainly hope there will be many
skillful navigators there. I hope so. But
I haven't heard anybody as yet. Have
you? Do you 'know whether Professor
Xangley will compete?"
"Do you get much pleasure out of your
aerial flight?"
"More than the most ardent automobll

there is a pleasurable sensation in going
TALK OF EAELY BAYS.
Pioneers of First Presbyterian Church
Hold "Reminiscence Meeting."
Early days were lived over again at the
"reminiscence" meeting which was held in
the chapel of the First Presbyterian
Church last night, and the younger ele
ment present made tie trip back to the
COs with the speakers and took the deepest
interest in the struggles of the church In
tho tlmf of Its lnfancv Thre was a larsre
!v"m! Jul 'LJIt!,

those speaking were helped out from time
to time by others on particular points
upon which memory failed them for the
first time. The faithful members and
workers of the First Presbyterian Church
who aro now laid away to their well-de-scrved
xost were spoken of with feeling by
thdi friends who are still at their posts
of duty, and many instances of their noble
work were cited.
1 nomas Strong brought a smile to all
faces when he announced that he had at
tended every prayer meeting hold In the
First Presbyterian Church for 20 years
after Its organization. And he broadened
the smile into a genuine laugh when he de
clared that he liked it His early child
hood was spent In the country and the
only children he had seen before coming
to Portland were Indians. His impression
of the first Sunday-school ho attended,
where he saw so many white children as
scholars and had such a beautiful teacher,
he suld would never leave his mind.
Mr. Strong compared tho ministers of
those early days with those of this date,
too. Hftsald ho often smiled nowadays
when listening to a sermon and would
wonder to himself what Dr. Caffrey or Dr.
XJndsley would have said to It; not that
principles aro changed, but tilat we now
regard them in a different light or with
broader minds.
The work the ladies of the church did in
those early days was of particular Inter
est to tho women of today. Tho alphabet
ical sociables were described as being
something unusual and startling in the so
cial line. The ladles were paired off. two
and two, alphabetically, so that each so
cial was managed by two of the members.
There was a great rivalry, he said, in
matters of refreshments, cake-baking
being an especial feature, each lady vlelng
with the other as to who could make the
best ones. He described one given under
the management or' his mother and Mrs.
Smith, and there were many In the gather
ing who remembered. The Mrs. Smith re
ferred to was the mother of Miss Ella
Smith, who endowed the Portland Public
library.
"When family troubles arose between
Mrs. Smith and her husband," continued
Mr. Strong, "the matter was discussed at
length in the weekly prayor meetings
and the church, especially the w.omen,
sided with Mrs. Smith. Tho trouble grew
ar.d the couple was finally divorced or
separated. After Mrs. Smith died the
daughter. Ella Smith, went to live with
her father, and for this reason she was
boycotted, fpr the church did not ap
prove of her father. But she stuck to him,
and he left her quite a fortune. When she
died, the money which the Presbyterian
Church might have had otherwise, was
left to endow the library, so it can be said
that this church lost that money through
a quarrel In the Smith family."
The organization of the Ladies Relief
Society in the basement of the old church
was mentioned by Mr. Strong. The call
extended to Dr. Llndsloy and his arrival
here and the final establishment of the
church: its ups and downs, and the first
subscriptions for a new church were all
recounted in the most interesting man
ner by the speaker. Mr. Strong also said
that for many years the church was held
together by two members James Mc
Keown and James Holman, two faithful
members, whose zeal never grew lax.
D. W. Wakefield also had many Interest
ing reminiscences, and spoke of many of
the old church members, whose personal
ity was still felt In the church and Its
work. A glowing tribute to the ministry
of Dr. Llndsley opened his remarks. He
said to have heard this noble man once
was to remember him forever.
'His language was so beautiful, his
manner so exquisite, his principals and
dctrine so sound and true that we had
nothing but admiration for him."
Many of tho early workers of the First
Presbyterian Church were spoken of and
their many characteristics and good traits
brought to light Among these Mr. Wake
field mentioned General and Mrs. Bab
bitt Mrs. Bloomfleld. Mrs. Blossom, Mrs.
Bond. Judge Bronaugh, Mrs. J. H. Couch,
Mr a ltd Mrs. J. B. Congle, Mrs. Eliza
Alnsworth, Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Holman.

WIN THE AIR-SHIP RACE
through the air at full speed. But that Is
not it," said JL Santos-Dumont. "The
great sensation Is in being able to com
mand a machine 50 metres long while
sweeping through the air. That is Inde
scribable delight," he exclaimed, enthu
siastically. He laughed us he drew him
self up, displaying a figure slender and
slightly built
"I'm not very big or very powerful," he
said, "but when I'm standing In my basket
that machine has to obey me. I am not
controlled by it, but I command It It's
the realization of that sense of power
that makes air navigation a fascinating
pursuit
"The greatest pleasure Is obtained from
the biggest machine. When I go to the
races in Paris in my little runabout I have '
to incline It at great angles In rising or
ascending. But not so in a machine the
size of my No. 7. It responds to the slight
est touch. A slight inclination upward or
downward is sufficient to change its
course. The big machine obeys more
promptly and the effort of the operator
is slighter.
"I have made ten airships so far. Each
one has been a gradual development of
my Ideas and observations, and I hope
each has been an Improvement over the
others. In my No. 10 I -have taken flight
but it is a slow' machine. lntended for
carrying passengers, i nave taken as
many as four passengers in a basket con
structed especially for that purpose."
"On what lines do you think the airship
of the future will have to develop?" I
asked.
Horse-Power the Secret.
"It must be a thin, long machine, with
an enormous amount of horse-power. That
is the chief principle of aerial navigation.
Mrs. Skinner, William Wadham, Mrs.
Whitney. J. D. Whitney and others. He
had something good to say of each one
and of the great amount of good they had
accomplished. Mr. Waktfield also stated
that the Y. M. C. A. was organized In
the First Presbyierlan Church. The fam
ous crusade against saloons and the ladles
who spent a night in Jail was also men
tioned. J. Thorburn Ross spoke briefly of his
recollections of the early church days,
which he said extended back only 20 years.
The first event he could recall after com-
I lne nere vras the Publishing of the Web-
lf00t Cookbook, which was sold for the
benefit of the church fund. He said it met -
with the greatest success and he thought
there were families who still used it The
work accomplished 20 years ago by the
Young People's Society Mr. Ross thought
greater than that of today. He closed his
remarks by eulogizing the late H. W.
Corbett and the great -amount of good
work he had done In the church.
"He spent time, thought, service and
money In the work and ,the advancement '
and betterment of the work." '
W. M. Ladd followed with a short talk '
about the people he remembered, the
early Sunday School and the organiza- i
tion of Calvary Church. The E. M. Bur- '
ton family and Miss Helen Burton were
kindly remembered, and all Joined in a
talk of the way their residence was used
by the church In times of sociables or
festivals. The churchyard opened into
Mr. Burton's backyard, and everything
Jn the house was often borrowed for use
on such occasions. Mr. Hensen was men
tioned, and .ss Alice Holman. Mrs.
?,p!l! B wy;att Mr- Marshall
Millard. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Robert-
son. ana many, many others.
The. meeting terminated by Mr. E.
Quackenbush s address. Ho spoke of tho
emotions the events of this Jubilee week
iiuu wrougni, ana ci me many memories
it brought back to him. He confined his
remarks to characteristics of Dr. Llnds
ley and Mr. Laud, and had many In
teresting Incidents of the tetter's happy
disposition and his unbounded charity.
During the evening Dr. Hill read the
following letter which was received from
Mrs. Sarah Caffrey, the wife of one of
the first pastors of the church, of which
the following is an extract:
In 1SG0 we sailed for San Francisco, where
we remained two days, then sailed for Port
land, where we were kindly welcomed. Mr.
Caffrey preached his first sermon June 17,
1800. A board of trustees was elected, con
sisting of IV. S. Ladd, J. C. Alnsworth, H.
A. Hogue. J. M. Blossom, and F. B. Smith.
Mr. Caffrey was taken under the care of the
presbytery and ordained minister and assigned
to tho church as pastor, with the co-operation
of all who were interested in the upbuilding
of tho church. It grew and prospered. There
were but few male members at that time; but.

ABE SUMMONED TO CHICAGO.
Freight Agents of Trans-Continental
Lines Will Discuss New Tariff.
The freight agents of the trans-continental
lines from the Coast distict and
elsewhere have been summoned to attend
a special meeting in Chicago on January
23. The nature of this meeting appears to
be a profound secret, at least the local
railroad men nrofess to know nothing
about Its slsmlflcance. It could not be
learned yesterday what is to be discussed.
but the Impression prevails here that the
new advanced freight tariff will be one of
the chief topics for consideration.
Mr. Miller, of the O. R. & N., left
Wednesday night and Mr. Fulton, of the
Northern Pacific, left yesterday for Chi
cago. The notices summoning them to
the East did not state what business was
to be considered, but evidently some Im
portant roove In the freight line is con
templated. Local freight men, when asked about the
matter yesterday stated that It was their
belief the association of freight men had
been called together for the purpose of
considering the advanced rates recently
put Into effect over the trans-continental
lines. There have been Innumerable pro
tests registered against the percentage of
advance made upon a large number of
articles and it is possibly to determine
upon a more equitable rate for these arti
cles that the special meeting has been
called. At least the shippers are hoping
that this Is the case. The new rate is
found to be almost prohibitive on many
i articles that are shipped to the Coast in
j large quantities and It is to the Interests
0f the railroads as well as the shippers
that reductions be made In these cases.

Wants to Join an Ideal Club.
A young man who lately graduated from
an Oregon university and who has come to
Portland to reside ahd study the practice
of his chosen profession is desirous of se- j
curing admission to some club, or society,
or circle of society where he will have the
advantage of associating with men of ma- j
ture age and scholarly attainments ana
tastes, hoping from this association to im-
prove his mind and manners and add to !
his knowledge. It Is not exactly a literary i
i club he is looking for, but a club of pro- '
! fessional men, who read widely and well, i
j and discuss among themselves matters of j
i general Importance and Interest hoping by t
listening to their discussion to increase his j
! stock of knowledge and Improve hls mind j
! and powers. He has asked The Oregonian
to Inform him where such a cluo or society
Is to be found and how he can gain admit- j
tance to It This Is rather a difficult re- j
quest to comply with. The reporters room '
of The Oregonian would hardly fill the bill, j
though it might help some. Most of the j
clubs about town have some literary or I
political, or business features, and also a
bar and smoking-room, and some smaH '
rooms for draw-poker, and other harmless
games on the side, but the exact location
of any club composed of studious and
scholarly men whose conversatiop will
supplement the benefits of a universal ed
ucation Is not at present known to any
member of The Oregonian force, although
there are university men among them.
Perhaps some kind-hearted member of
such a club will inform the young man
where it may be found.
More About That S5 Piece.
PORTLAND, Jan. 21. To tie Editor.)
A few days ago there appeared an article
in The Oregonian about a man being given

He said he would be very happy to hand
it back to the man to whom it belonged,
but could imagine no way of finding out.
depend for the safety of his life and limbs
as he steers 'his course through the air.
Upon the soundness o'f the material and
skillful construction also rests the future
of his fame In the science of aeronautics.
In this connection he said:
"All the materials from which my1 air
ships are constructed are made outside of
my workshop. I make It a point to select
the most skillful mechanics I can find to
provide the propellers, engines and the
other machinery necessary. I qbtain the
strongest, wood for the framework and go
to tho best silkraaker for my silk.
"My latest airship represents the work
of 50 different specialists. I would never
try to do such constructive work myself.
That would be Impossible.
"I heard Indirectly that it was the In
tention of the managers of the Exposition
to assign a period of only one week for
the speed testa in the airship competition,
That, in my judgment, would be very in-
advlsble. It would certainly make it im
possible for me to become a competitor.
The time is far too limited,
"An air ship is a large and complicated
mechanism, and at the last moment it Is
not uncommon for a shaft to break or for
some similar accident to occur which it
may take several days or even several
weeks to repair.
"Under such circumstances the time al
lowance of a week would be altogether In
sufficient Under the terms of the Deutsch
competition, the time for the trials were
set for f6ur months of every year for four
years,

to at least three months. It would be bet
ter for the Exposition, for spectators would
I come oftener to view the trials and more
interc-st would be taken in them.1
The woman who made the mistake in the
first place by giving the conductor on the
Willamette Heights car the $5 piece,
which undoubtedly was the same passed
on to this man. has no Intention of laying
claim to it But as the man says he would
be happy to return it to the person to whom
it belonged, the pleasure can be his by
calling at the office of the Portland Rail
way Company, where the mistake was re
ported before the article appeared In

less appearance and make him morbid and
"cranky and. disagreeable, that thing is
dyspepsia. It makes one forget his friends
and become morose and irritable. Ha is
so wrapped up In his own misery that he
is inconsiderate of every one else. Re
lieved of this terrible and depressing ail
ment, he again becomes a good fellow and
man among men.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are beyond
question the mo3t effective and popular
remedy ever offered to the sufferers of
this terrible disease. The thousands and
thousands of cures they have brought
about and the enormous increase of their
sales fully attest the truth of this state
ment They are, above all, a natural remedy.
They possess exactly the same properties
that the gastric juices and other digestive
flulds-.of the stomach possess, and they
actually do the digestive work of the
stomach and enable that organ to rest
and recuperate and become sound and
well. They act In a mild, natural manner
and cause no disturbance in the digestive
organs. They prevent any fermentation
of the food which causes sour stomach. In
fact under their influence the subject for
gets that he has a stomach and his result
ing cheerfulness presents a, great contrast
to his former dejection.
Millions of boxes of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are sold annually, and they are
but In the dawn of their popularity. Ev
ery mall brings letters of thanks giving
from grateful ones who have been cured
of this terrible disease. The following Is
one of hundreds received each week:

writes: "For six years I have been
troubled with dyspepsia. Last Fall I be
came very much alarmed at some symp
toms of heart trouble and came to believe
there was a sympathetic relation between
the two diseases, or rather, that the
stomach trouble was the cause of the
heart disturbances. I hit upon Stuart's
Dispepsia Tablets for a remedy and In
vested a dollar and a half for three boxes
which lasted me three months, and I can
eat any kind of food I want and have
good, vigorous appetite. Although I am
77 years old, I now feel perfectly well
and without being requested by any one
I make this statement as a compliment to
the virtues of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets."
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale
