Explosion of the Balloon.
1t was nearly dark when the balloon
went up, but its ascent and explosion
was pretty sight. The hundreds OF
eyes watching it all at once saw blind
ing flash on the heavens and then came
profound silence for six or seven Sec
onds, then a shock which shook the
ground. The balloon had exploded
right beneath fleecy cloud. The cloud
kept on its way calmly and serenely,
but, as Prof. Ellis said. the cloud was
$4,000 feet high, and as the explosion
occurred only 1000 feet nearer, the
cloud might have been excused for its
inattention.
The following day it was fully 8
o'clock before the fusillade finally
opened. The sky was greatly overcast
in the morning, but everybody said it
was not q ia II cloud and the General
might go abe ad. The breeze was south
westerly and blowing about ten miles
an hour. About o'clock Messrs.
Dickinson and King, with the president
OF the San Antonio Board of Trade,
waited upon Gene al Dyr nfor;h and
somewhat sharply said that there was
no use waiting for further favorable
conditions. They wanted the test made
at once, and wanted it kel up till some
result was oh aine !. The General waived
his military gauntlet in the direction Of
a battery to the westward which
opened with a series Of detonations OF
five ana ten pound charges OF rosellite.
Then on the crest Of the ridge could
be seen other pufs o's m oke until nearly
semicirc!e Of explosions had been
seen and noted. Tn, n DR.. Resell opened
his mortar battery from the brow of the
hill near Dyrenforth's headquarters
and dozen or more shells were sent
up thousand feet and exploded. These
shells contained three pounds Of rosel-
lite. While the firing was going on Pro-
fessor Ellis prepared another gaseous
balloon. 1t was the same n was sent up
the cay before, BIT 10 the relief of the
crowd had longer fuse, for it did not
explode until it was mile in the air.
When it did go there was vivid flash,
puff OF smoke visible for an instant,
and then wait of eight seconds for the
shock.
No Effect on the Clouds.
IL was terrific. Horses and bugg es
were changed about and all ma ure
seemed convulsed, but again the fleecy
clouds against which the balloon had
been sent sailed males ically along.
seemingly Indifferent. The first bonn
bardment was kept up until midnight,
when the first battery of 5000 of resell
lite was exhausted. The fusillade will
be resumed and continued without in
PERMISSION for twentyfour hours. This
will conclude the first series of expert
ments.

WAa4 they Have Done In Hoping % Do-
voIOp tho Great West.

Wat They Have Done In Helping 20 De.
veIOp tho Great West
The life of the west is one to induce
heroism on h part Of both men and
women. The latter are often left alone
for days in the little sod cabins or in the
dug-outs that dot the hillsides along the
wnter courses. They learn to be self
reliant and strong-natured. There are
in every settlement events recorded
any one of which would in Massachu-
sets, New York or Ohio give the actor
a statewide reputation, but which in
the far west are not thought of seri-
ously. With the difficulties of outlaws,
Indians and the terrific forces Of nature
to combat. it is remarkable that more
tragedies do not occur.
But the women of the plains realized,
says the Globe-Democrat, when they
came from the old homes in the east
that they were coming to face hardships
aud danger, and the elements of bravery
in their ature came out strongly, and
whenever the test came there was the
hearty and hardy spirit to meet it.
Much as the men have lone DO develop
the country, the women have done
more, and the wives and daughters de-
serve all possible credit. Here and
there a deed stands out in relief, but for
the most part the stories of the heroincs
are confined to their immediate neigh
borhood, and never reach the outside
world.

ABILENE, TEX, March 1.-THE Abilene
progressive committee has been thoroughly
reorganized and is now doing some good
work in the following lines, and is pre-
pared to entertain all propositions for the
good OF Abilene in particular and the Abb
lene country in general. We want grain
elevator, cotton compress and more rail
roads.
A windfall will drop upon our citizens
soon, the same being an announcement by
the progressive committee that they have
closed the deal for the cons truction of two
more railroads to this point. Your cor
respondent has secured this tip on the
side, and is not prepared nor allowed to
make any more of the details public.
Brick for the Boman building are now
being put on the ground and work will
commence next week.
The Abilene waterWorks company is
pushing things, and will in the next ten
days commence to lay five miles of addi-

The Texas and Pacific will soon let the

o1AREs DON, TEX, March 10, 1899.


To the Gazette.
The county surveyors of Texas have been
called to meet in Austin on the 18th of
April in annual convention. A large at
tendance is anticipated as much interest
has been manifested. Among the topics to
be discussed which will prove of interest to
all will most likely be many of the follow
ing: Surveying as Profession" EN-
cheering Ability" knowledge of the
Laws OF Surveying" Scientific Work"
Necessity for knowledge Not Found in
Books, - Conflicts and Mistakes, and How
to Find Them" Finding Boundaries On
the Ground" Establishing Boundaries
Never Made on the Ground" Correction
of Work Carelessly done, Fees and Off
cial Duties, - Relation of Titles to Bounda-
ries." "RelatiTe Value of State School
Lands, Defined and Underlined" 'Unde-
fined Patented Lands and Rights Under
Them" settlements of Disputes Outside
of Courts" and many others.
The railroads centering at Austin have
fare TO Members of the convention, and the
place of meeting will enable many to at
tend who could not well do so but for bust
ness at the departments. We will also
have the honorable commissioner Of the
land Office with US and be able to work
mere in unison with each other and the
rules governing the land department.
We may accomplish much good by this
frateTnal meeting which we would hardly
ever do by private CORES pondence. Fra
ternally yours, JAMES H. PARKS,

years an old woman has held the Indians in
