Hogan, ''163 ascensions and three jumps
One jump, made out in Jackson, is the
biggest on record-9, 500 feet Ishot down
400 feet before my parachute opened. The
popular impression is that the parachute
opens with snap, but this is not SO
First one section opens. then another,
and so on by easy degrees. and as I've
watched it opening when it was just
above me and was thousands of feet up
in the air it reminded me Of a rose open
ing m the morning.
How did l feel when made my first
jump? Oh. well, rather afraid / looked
down and saw.the hills and fields away
below me, and the people looked barely a
foot high, and the buildings looked like
toy houses. | looked down and shivered
when saw the space between me and the
earth, and then looked at the barometer
and found the distance to be almost ons
and half miles; but all the same l
jumped. leaped into space hanging to
the parachute, and down | went like q
shot for 200 feet. The parachute then
began to open, gradually lessening my
velocity. | heard the peoples applause
very family. 1t rose up to me like the
merest suspicion of sound. afterward
learned they clapped and cheered for all
they were worth. The parachute was
oscillating somewhat, and l came near
being banged against several chimney
tops. The buildings are our greatest ter
Tor. Many an aeronaut has been dashed
against building and killed-more. in
fact, than being dragged over rugged
ground. [ met with one accident See
here, pointing to big bulb on his right
ankle. Il got that in Nebraska in Au-
gust of 1888 by being dragged over a
heap of rocks. never could bend that
ankle since-can't even stand on that foot
alone.
You see great panorama from bal
loon in mid air." continued the professor,
''but, of course, the landscape is all in
miniature and through slight haze. -
