WILL FLY TO POLE. PROPOSED TRIP TO ARCTIC CIRCLE IN AN AIRSHIP Walter Wellman. Well-Known Newapapar Correapondant, Making Preparations for Journey—Has Studied Subject for Ytara. Washington.—Walter Wellman, the Washington correspondent who. with Ssntos-Dumont and three other companions yet to be chosen, will attempt to reach the north pole by means of an airship, has sailed from New Yarik city for Paris, where he will begin the work necessary to bring the plans for his arctic trip to perfection. There has been serious editorial comment upon Mr. Wellman's polar exploration project to the effect that the journalist may win success as a leader. If he make certain that be has men with him to supply needful technical knowledge It seems to hare been taken for granted that Mr. Wiellman. being a journalist, and "therefore haring only a general knowledge of things Important" never has undertaken specialisation. As a matter of fact this Washing ton correspondent who Is willing to face the dangers of a voyage northward In a "flying machine" has for years made a study of all those things concerning which knowledge for bis undertaking Is necessary Just before leaving Washington for New York. Mr. Wellman said ~I wish to speak modestly of It. but for years I have made a study of the whole subject of aeronautics and of all those things which are an aid to aeronautics. It Is my belief that the attainment of the pole Is Impossible

WALTER WELLMAN (Newspaper Corresponded Preparing for Trip to Pole In an Airship ) by the old method, taking Into consideration the difficulties of sledging over the rough sea Ice. the distances to be traveled, and the short season fee their traveling. “It Is my belief that with the development of mechanics and of the arts, especially with reference to the navigation of the air, the time has come when the pole may be reached." The correspondent takes a serious and scientific view of his forthcoming work, and his desire Is to add tn the geographical knowledge of the world rather than to supply simply a startltnr piece of news “The pole Is the center of an unknown country." said Mr. Wellman; " a country of which, it Is man's duty to learn something If he can. The mere fact that no new land Is to be opened to colonization, or to be util Izad for mining or agricultural Interests. does not detract In my mind In the least from the Interest which centers In It. or from the duty which attaches to the work of exploration " Wellman Is in the prime of life and In perfect health. He nays be will undertake his journey northward with some fear, but with great hope. He Is a tireless worker, and those who have labored 1% the tame field of journalism with him In Washington and tn other cities know that be has a tendency of purpoae which Is nt all times the admiration and sometimes the despair of others. It might be said right here that the pluck shown by Wellman Is not of one whit a higher order than that shown toy bis wife and five daughters. The Wellman family Is a devoted family, and yet Mrs. Wellman and her children have such absolute confidence In the overcoming qualities of the husband and father that they have abiding faith be will make bis journey through the air, over the fields of'Ice and snow, to the pole, and will make bis return In safety to rejoin the family circle. Twice before has Mr. Wellman said good-by to his family to separate himself for months from Its members with no means of communication both occasions be penetrated the arctic wilderness, and while not reaching tbs goal for which all explorers strive, be brought back much to add to tbe sum of human knowledge, and this meed the wife and children considered nil sufficient return for their Urns of wafting and anxiety. In Parts arrangements will be i for the building of an airship of double tbs size and carrying capacity of anything of the kind hitherto constructed. It will be bulK to carry five men.

At that time snuff was largely Imported from Glasgow. Tbe little snuff mil’ adjoined Mr. Stuart's bouse. Dr. Moffat looked after the raising of the tobacco and made a fortune out of tbe business, while Gilbert Stuart, the snuff gainder. had no ablbllty to keep the money which hU Ingenuity enabled him to earn. Young Stuart showed at an early age marked ability for art and muaie. He stood well' In his classes and was not only an accomplished player but a poser of music as well. He went abroad and studied for two years at the University of Glasgow, wh^re he perfected himself In classic literature. In London ha studied under Benjamin West; took lessons In sna omy^wlth Dr. Crulkshank and attended the lectures oi Sir Joshua Reynolds. He returned •« America In 1793 for the expressed purpose of painting the iortratt of George Washington, whose character he greatly adm>red. There has been erected a tablet, which Is tbe first permanent memorial to him. In St. Paul s church In Wickford.

How can punishment for sin be averted? It has been Mid that there are three ways. First Inasmuch as ■Offering and punishment Is the result of sin. let os stop sinning, and then hall oease suffering.
