8T. LOVI9, Mo.. Oct. in After niotitlm
nt planning anfi weeks ot preparation all
arrangements have born completed for the
second International aeronautic contests
which wHV "be held here nct week, be
ginning at 4 o'clock Monday afternoon.
Nina balloott have bwn entered, represent
ing America, Oermany, Franco and
England.
The flrat International contest was held
hfct year at Pari at which Lieutenant
Frank P. Lahm of the t'nlted States cav
alry, by a flight of 12 miles, won the James
Gordon Bennett cup, the trophy of the
contest. The cup la arc object of art and
masalv silver valued at !.5X and waa
offered 'by James Gordon Bennett to the
reronaut covering the longest distance In
a, slngl flight. If th cup la won hre tlnjes
In ucceelon by an aeronaut It then be
come the property "of the aeronautic club
of which he la a member. The winner of
Uia cup lu each international contest by
the terma of the donor, will receive. In
addition, a prlw of I2.E0O In cash, together
with one-half of the entry fee and for
felte. The contestant finishing; second will
receive one-third and the contestant fin
ishing third the balance .of the entry feea
and forfelta.
Thla second competition for the Bennett
International aeronautic cup was organised
by the Aero Club of America under the
rulea of the International Aeronautic fed
eration,, and will be conducted under the
auspices of the Aero club of Bt. Louis.
Proa; ram of thm Week.
The flrat five day of the week will be
devoted to aeronautics. Monday the prin
cipal feature of the entire aeronautic meet
will open the program when the nlno
haJloona will ascend in the International
Ions; distance rare for the Bennett cup.
Tuesday there -will be a contest for aero
plane or flying machines , of the heavier-than-air
type, w(th total cash prlxea of
2,S0O. ' ' ;' I
Wednesday there will be a contest for
airship and vehicles of the lighter-than-alr
type, with total prises ot $3,800.
Thursday me contesi or nying macnines
for the Scientific American cup will be
held. :..'-'
Friday will be "free-for-all1 day. In which
any kind of an air craft that will get
above the ground may participate In the
contest to win the Lahm cup, which has
Just been won by the aerenauts, McCoy
and Chandler, 'In their long balloon flight
from St Louis to West Virginia.
Aeronautic Interest centers chiefly on the.
International balloon race. According to
announcement of the Aero club, the first
balloon, pomnierti, will be sent up at 4

Count Da Lambert bel'eves that this Is

When a big flying machine leaves the
ground, passes through the air along a
course which has been previously deter
mined, and at last comes safely back to
qarth. its flight Is observed with wonder
and enthusiasm. News of such an event
ia flashed In meefages to all psrts of the j
world, and brings the thought of new ,
powers over the clear and unsubstantial at- :
mosphere which will Increase the capacity '
of men for work and pleasure. That men
should be able to propel a thing of such
tangible matcrluB and visible form, and
guide . Its course through space, is a suffi
cient cause for wonder, and In Its accom
plishment tie great possibilities for useful
ness. Still mora wonderful, however, because to
the average man more mysterious, Is the
launching Into the air of a material thing j
having a form as definite as that of an
airship, but Invisible to tho eye. Add to
this that Its constitution la so delicate that
th most sensitive Instrument known is

Reginald A. Feesenden, who haa he

development of wireless telegraphy, has
recently permitted a number of electrical

by th system he ha devised, conversation

The success of wireless telegraphy 1ms
shown that If electricity In n certain form
Is very suddenly sent to the tip of a niK
talllo mest, It administers to the atmos
phere a shock which spreads abroad In the
shape of an Invisible wave. ' This wave
causes a disturbance to spread through tho
air at the rate of not less than 188,400
miles a second. As it move onward. It
carries a portion of tho energy which "wa
the causa of Us existence.
The process, stripped of its complications,
consist of creating the wave for carry
ing the energy by what r.iuy be called a
series of electrical explosions. On the great
fundamental waves, which may bo likened
to the large waves set up In water by thn

thu provided to continuing on' through

earth. In this path Is interposed a receiv

to pass, but gathers out all tbe energy In
th wavelet created by the action of the
transmitter Into which words were spoken.
Differs frana Wireless Telegraphy.
Prof. Pessenden' began his work upon
thla proi lem In 1R98. while carrying on hi
Inveetlgatlons In wireless telegraphy. At
this time scientists had developed three dis
tinct method of sending electro-magnetic
wave off tnto space from a tall meat,, or
antenna, aa it Is technically termed. Ex
periments showed that none of these meth
od would do for telephony. They gave
single wave, separated by distinct Inter
val. Thla wa not harmful to wireless
telegraphy, where signals consist of a
series erf clicks: but such single wave were
useless for transmitting words, the con
tinuity of which must not b broken. He
decided that what wa needed was a mean
for producing long, trains of waves, and de
vised apparatua for this purpose. In the
ftrM partially uocesful experiment, made
at Rock Point, Md., In the fall of 1800, h
produced these necessary train of wave
by causing the electrical circuit between
the1 source of energy and the antenna to
be mad and broken 10,000 time In a sec
ond. A In wlreles telegraphy, a spark
gap wa uaed, o that each Interruption
would produce oscillation ot electricity
surging up and down th mast. The effect
of these was to give to the atmosphere the
hocks necttssary for building waves.
Eleetrleal Fare Reverse.
During these experiments. In which os
cillations were art up by making and
breaking the circuit. It waa proved that
no matter what speolal device war uaed
they could not be completely successful.
UVhen conversation wa possible, thcr wa
disagreeable noise produced tn the 're
ceiver. Tbl wa due to th fact that, a
when a tuning fork gradually come to
rest, each vibration I weaker than the
last, so the amount of energy given off
by th electrical oacillatkm varied; and
there were, also, break between the suc
cessive train, o that a amooth and reg
ular aerie of sound wave could not be
produced In the receiver. Success could
only com through th devising of seme
plan capable of giving a series of electrical
waves which would. In their un modi fled
form, be created absolutely alik la sir
and shape, and given off with perfect
regularity from the antenna. The only
practical way out ot th difficulty seemed to
be to build th right kind of an alternating
current dynamo. If such a nwhjne. giving
electricity at high pressure, could be con
nect "d to antenna, and caused to re
verse the direction ot the electrical force
enough time In a second, a aerie ef
hock could be produced which would
end out wave In th ame way a did
th spark gap oscillating circuit. To build
a machine which would do this has even,
up to the present time, been declared by
electrical expert to be Impossible. TO

Prof. Feesenden surmounted the dif
ficulties and designed a machine which
would give the desired electrical results,
snd It Is now In uae, the rotating fleld
making 10.MO revolutions per minute, and
has for wek been giving off an electrical
current which changfS lt-llrcctlon no less
than W.flno time per second. The current
given off by the machine Is st about sixty
volts electrical pressure, and this pressure
Is very much Increased in the antennas by
the effect "of a tranformer. and by the
resonance effects of the electrical oscilla
tions. The machine furnishes a power of
about one kilowatt enough to run per
haps thirty sewlpg' machines and of this
power nearly 80 per cent la .sent, out Into

An ideal location '
f of law offices
A buildincr opposite to ttoo court house and next to
the city hall is particularly convenient for members of
the legal profession. The fact that one of the court rooms
i in the Bee Building, also makes it a most satfactory
location. With a lawyer, time counts for 60 much, that
any saving which can be made in going from the office to
the courts is a distinct advantage.
THE BEE BUILDING
with its beautiful court, attractive entrance and corridors,
i a pleasant place in which to have an office. A lawyer,
particularly, should be in a fire-proof building, wnere be
will know that his books and records are safe. Then, too,
he does, not wish to be annoyed by poor service and the
Bee Building, with its well trained help, haa an organiza
