BALLOON VOYAGES.
Ono of the Most Adventurous on Reeor
Taken by Soldier.

One of the Most Adventurous on Record
Taken by Soldier.
One of the most adventurous balloon
voyages taken during the Franco-German
war was that of NJ. Martin, naval Off
Ger from Finisterre.
NJ. Martin started from Paris on the LIST
of December in balloon which had been
christened the Jules Favre. He rose at
once above the snowclouds into stratum
of bitter cold air, along which he was
borne with great speed in westerly di-
rection. He felt like a man who had been
buried alive in vast dark, chilling vault,
beyond the reach of human sympathy O;
aid. Presently the stars were obscured by
snowclouds and it was also found that
the instruments used by aeronauts for
taking their bearings had got out of Or
der. At o'clock in the morning NJ.
Martin and his companion perceived wa
ter below them, which at first they sup
posed to be the Loire, but shortly after
ward, seeing lighthouse and ships, they
found they were in the neighborhood of
the sea. They were above Belle isle and
close to the western side of it, so that it
was necessary to descend at once if they
would not be swept away over the Allan
tic.
Tho pulley which opened the escape
valve had boon blown out of reach by tho
fury of their rushing passage through the
air, but NJ Martin climbed up the ropes,
regained the pulley and released the gas.
They now descended with such rapidity
rs to lose consciousness. The balloon on
nearing the earth dashed madly about,
tore off the roof Of q house, broke down a
wall and came into collision with an old
church. NJ. Martins companion was
thrown out and seriously hurt, and M.
Martin himself, OH recovering his senses,
found that some coast guardsmen were
holding down the car
Among the persons soon attracted to
the spot was NJ. Armand Trochu, brother
Of the governor of Paris. This gentleman
had little property on Belle isle, where
he lived with his mother, then in her
eighty fourth year. By a strange coinci-
dencc it was tho roof Of M. Armand Tro-
chu's house which the Jules Favre tore
off in its wild writings. The old lady
had been praying throughout the night
for a sign from heaven that France should
be saved by her SOD, and when the rafters
crashed over her head she exclaimed to
her granddaughter that the sign had been
given, and that 1.-THE Providence Of the
king of Prussia" WAS not always to pre-
vail.

A FAMOUS MONSTER.
An Old Time Wonder That Had an Eye
In Its Knee.

In the writings of both Licetus and
Zahn may be found descriptions and illus
trations of q monster born at Rave1na,
Italy, in the year 1911 or 1919, the exact
date being somewhat uncertain. This
monster had a body and shoulders like
those Of young woman. There was but
one leg, gradually tapering from the hips
down and terminating in an immense,
scaled claw, like that of turkey buzZard
There were four toes, each Tipped with n
bony nail three of them pointing to the
left and one to the right The creature
had wings in place of arms and always
held them in an erect position, rs though
ready to take flight at the slightest provo
cation. From the hips to the single knee
the flesh was covered with large, well ar
ranged featl:C2S. From the knee joint to
the foot the leg was scaled, like that OF
the common barnyard fowl, the spot
where tho feathers left off and the scales
commenced being marked with Large
lidless eye, which seemed to be altogether
incapable of voluntary motion. The neck,
head and general outlines of the face were
those of a woman, but the ears were large
and set very low, almost on the neck.
The head was covered with queer
mixture of scales, feathers and hair, but
the oddity of the whole upper story
was q pointed horn, which rose just in
the edge of the hair on the center of the
forehead This horn was three inches iii
length, and, according to Zahn, 'evcn Il
farmer would have mistaken it for the
horn of year-old heifer had it been
removed and shown to him."
The old time wonder mongcrs all give
pictures and descriptions of this "hoIned
Italian monster" but none, as far as
know, tells how long it lived or what was
done with the body after death. There is
splendid tinted picture of it in John
Ashton's Curious Creatures" page l73.

AMUSING TIE QUEEN.
How Maids OF Honor Are Selected end
Some OF Their Duties.


Maids of honor are chosen by the
queen herself from among the daughters
of peers, who, if not themselves connect
ed with the royal household, are per
sonal friends of her majesty. A letter is
always sent to the parents of the young
lady requesting that as personal favor
to the queen she may be permitted to
attend at court. As Sae position is un-
deniable and the salary is $500 year,
the request is invariably accepted, and
the newly chosen maid receives from
the lord chamberlain the command for
her first "wait.
The first thing brought to the maid
of honor is her badge. which is a mill
iature picture of the queen set in bril-
liants and hung from ribbon. Just
before the dinner hour the maid of hon
or in waiting has to stand in the corri-
dor outside the queens private apart
ments. She carries bouquet, which on
entering the dining room she lays at the
right hand of the queens plate.
The maid of honor sits at dinner next
to the gentleman on the queens right.
This rule is. however, relaxed when
royal guests are present. After dinner,
unless otherwise commanded, the maid
Of honor retires to her own room, whence
however, she is frequently called to
read, sing, play the piano or take a
hand at cards.
AS regards this last, the household
have always to be provided with fresh
ly coined money, for the queen is not
supposed to handle money which has
ever been in circulation. New York
Advertiser.

KENTUCKY FUIURiTY
Won Easily by Beauzeita. the Colt Taking
Over S23, 900 for Her Owner.

LEXINGTON, Ky, Oct. Eight thou
sand people, 5000 of whom were ladies',
btaved the raw wind here. today, to witness
the deciding of the great Kentucky Futurity
for year-olds. The stake was worth more
than any t'O.ting event heretofore offered,

$1,000; third, $1,000; nominator of win

Robert McGregor, (Thayer); Celaya BY
Allandorf, (Weyn); Novardine by Norval,
(Davis) were starters.
With Beauzetta, the favorite out, it
would have been great race, but she out
classed the field so greatly that she never
had the least tr0uble ia winning the rich
stake. Although she got much the worst of
the start she soon began to Overtake the
leaders, and just after passing the quarter
pole was only length back, and before
another furlopg was covered she was lead

of machinery. She came home the easiest
sort of winner by several lengths. In the
second and third heats she led from start to
finish. winning as she pleased. Calaya
was second in the first heat which gave her
third money.
Axinite and Futurity had strong fight
for second place. Futurity was two speedy
for the Axtel colt and the son of Hinder
Wilkes landed second money. E. W. Ayers
of Ducker's station, owner of BeauZetta
received in addition to the stake the money
which went to the nomiuator of the winners

That the crust of the earth is formed
in layers no one will dispute, and that
all substance ON the surface Of the cart
is drawn by some force toward the
earth's center is also undeniable. This
is called centripetal force. To admit
the existence of this force is equal to
the admission of counteracting force
called centrifugal.
According to every experiment and all
philosophical reasoning, there must be
a line of equilibrium drawn somewhere
between the center and the circumfer-
ence of the earth. The exact location OF
this line will always be determined by
the motion of the earth. 1t is on this
line that the external and the internal
forces meet in deadly conflict, striving for
gravitatious power and the enforcement
of their laws The friction produced by
these two forces must be the source OF
all internal heat and the eternal fire
1t is these two opposing forces that
form and sustain the immense balance
wheel called "the EARTH, which is 49,
900 miles in circumference, but cannot
exceed 200 miles in thickness, including
the lava belt in the center.
The irregular motion of the earth
will change the central line of gravity
and cause an eruption OF lava either eX-
ternal or internal. The earth when
viewed as whole is unit, and so
are the laws which operate it, whether
applied to the external or the internal
surface
The law which reverses gravitation
on this equalizing line has given us two
earths in one, or a world within
world. The friction and heat of the
earth at the equator are so much greater
than they are at the poles that the law OF
electric equilibrium will produce an
electric current to meet the demand for
light and heat.
This internal earth is counterpart
of the external in all things, except its
Atlantic and Pacific are not quite SO
vast, and its Nile and its Amazon are
not quite so long. Neither is its equator
nor it's zones nor its poles quite SO high.
Nature, with an impartial hand, has
withheld no good thing from this new
world that can be tasted of by any 9th
er Humanity here is as far removed
from Darwin as Darwin is removed
from the chosen seed of Adams race.
