Austin, of the Chronicle, and Clough, OF
the Cal, were the ones who undertook
to find the celebrated eastern air cur

1t took them rapidly to the northwest.
Austin saw the tug Neptune in the
bay, and pulled the rope and the bal
loon descended low enough to allow
him to leap into the bay, whence the
boats crew rescued him; but poor
Clough went up again like a rookie

being the only ballast they had. The
valve rope was broken, but Clough
climbed into the netting, got hold OF
the broken rope, opened the valve,
and down she came close to the water,
and the crew of the Neptune got him
safely out. The balloon then re-
assembled, and when last seen was
going toward the north pole, over
San Rafael. The enterprising aeron-
auts are now at North Beach, taking
another bath, Clough minus the suit
of clothes which he wore at starting.
