Parachute Leap at River view

About 1,500 persons from this city and
large thrOng from the surrounding
country were at River View yesterday
parachute descent by Miss Retta DanzelI.
of the Grace Shannon Balloon Company.
The ascension took place promptly at
6:3l, but long before that hour the crowd
gathered about the big white bag hang
ing between two high poles and watched
it slowly expand as the gases created by
the fire under it, ascended and filled it.
When full the balloon was about ninety
feet tall.
As Miss Danzell, a little back-eyed girl.
took her place in the parachute ring there
was a murmur of applause and manv
were the expressions of fear that she
might be hurt. AT the word the balloon
was released and at once shot into the
air. Higher and higher it mounted until
the daring girl looked like speck
against the sky. When at height of
about 5000 feet the parachute was cut
loose. For a few seconds before the hip
umbrella shaped bag opened. Miss Dan.
zell came toward the earth like a STONE
Then the parachute opened and gently
settled toward the earth, landing in an
open field, just on the edge of a thick
woodland about 2 mile and a quarter
north of the River View grounds.
The ascension was one of the best that
has been seen in the neighborhood of
Washington for some time and when Miss
Danzen was brought back in a carriage
she was applauded. So much did the ex-
hibttion please those who were present
that Capt Randall at once arranged with
Mr.. Ed Hutchinson, manager of the
Grace Shannon Company, to repeat the
ascension on Wednesday, Friday and
Saturday OF this week. On each of these
days Miss Danzell will make the ascen-
sion and viii endeayor to go higher than
she did yesterday.
