While digging, I occasionally find bits of Newspapers.

Here is one pretty interesting piece.
This is an article about Dr. Barton's Airship.

I can't read the whole headline. It's something like:
DR. BAR[T]ON'S AIRSHIP LOOKS NOW IN LINE TO LIKE [] TEN SECRETS.
The smaller text mentions wings and St. Louis.

I believe that Dr. Barton's Airship was supposed to compete in the airship race at the St. Louis World's Fair in 1904.

Instead, it sat in a warehouse in England where it burned, fell apart and was later reconstructed flying once in 1905.
