was last seen sailing towards the east The
wind on Tuesday, towards evening-an the
late afternoon, in fact-was blowing from
the southwest. SO If Hogan was seen east Of
Atlantic City, II would be interesting to
know how he got there, as his steering gear
fell off before he left Brooklyn.
A Brief Biography Of Hogan.
Professor Hogan was born in Canada forty
six years ago. He went to live in Michigan
when boy, and his wife at present makes
her home in that state He began the un-
canny profession Of aerial navigation when
only IS years old, and has followed 1t stead
lily ever since. His record comprises over
400 balloon ascensions and thirty-two para
chute jumps, Of varying wonder and danger,
which makes him a worthy brother Of Wise
and Donaldson. Last year he exhibited for
week with his parachute at Far Rockaway
beach and today was 70 have made jump
at Ottawa, Can. He was a medium sized
man, weighing 10 pounds and possessed Of
remarkable nerve and pluck. He never
drank, and was man who always kept his
word, SO his managers say. His friends still
cling to the hope that he may have been
saved by some hook or crook, and that he
may be heard from. But the chances for
once are vastly against the aeronaut, whose
courage had never deserted him In the
twenty eight years Of his hazardous calling.
Professor Campben's Opinion.

whereabouts Of Professor Hogan, said Mr..
Campbell to a reporter, "other than a dis

Every one knows the rabbit in some Of
its varieties, be- it cotton tail rock rab-

On the French coast, near Cape Grlznez,
