WILD RIDE IN
RUNAWAY BALLOON

San Francisco, Nov. ga captive
balloon containing nine people, one
woman and eight men, broke from its
fastenings here last night and floated
to the neighborhood of Redwood City,
thirty miles distant The occupants Of
the balloon are reported to have land
ed unframed. The balloon had been
sent up several times during the after
noon with passengers. 1t was fas.
tened to the ground by a thousand
feet OF rope cable. While descending
on the fifth trip, and when about 500
feet from the ground, the rope broke
and the balloon rapidly shot up in the
air to heighih of 1000 feet or more
and f1oated away in a southerly direc-
ton. 1t landed in the hills near Red
wood City, and a brief report from
that place says none of the passengers
were hurt
1t developed late last night that the
announcement that the balloon had
landed near Redwood City was prema-
ture. A telephone message fr n La
Honda says the balloon passed over
that place at height of 1000 feet.
There seemed to be no one in the car
The country where the balloon was
last seen is rough and sparsely settled.

ROOSEVELT CHATS
WITH TRAIN MEN

New York, Nov 5.-President and
Mrs. Roosevelt and party arrived in
New York at $40 last night. The
party remained in New York over
night and today will be taken to Oys-
ter Bay, Long Island, where the presi-
dent will vote. He will remain scarce
ly more than an hour in Oyster Bay,
returning in time to take the afternoon
train today over the Jersey City route
for Washington. Owingto the care with
which the exact itinerary of the trip
is guarded from the public, but few
people along the line were waiting tic
see the president until Newark was
reached. There a crowd pressed to
the depot gates. The only untoward
incident of the journey was the delay
due to freight wreck at Claymont,
Delaware, which made it necessary TO
shift the train to the Baltimore & Ohio
tracks, whence it ran as far as Nest
Philadelphia. AS the train lay in the
yards for some minutes the president
stepped to the platform and smilingly
greeted group of railroad employees,
who climbed on the platform and
shook hands with them. He told them
he was glad to see their interest in
politics as evidenced by the municipal
campaign buttons they wore.

MUCH MONEY IN MILK
DAIRY INTERESTS OF WISCONSIN
ENORMOUS.
SOME INTERESTING DATA
Butter Yield for 1900 Reaches Great
Total of 100000 Pounds and
Valued at $4,000, ooo-Cheese To-
Total was 100000 Pounds.

Through a map just issued by the
Wisconsin experiment station at the
university and compiled by DR.. E
Fred Russell, some interesting data are
obtained regarding the magnitude of
the dairy interests Of Wisconsin.
The number of cheese factories in the
state is given as 1910: creameries.
1886; combined cheese and butter
factories, II; skim milk stations, IS.
In the year 1900 the butter yield Of
the state reached the enormous total
of 80,000,000 pounds, of which $4,000
900 was creamery make and 100000
dairy The total value of this
amounted to Sl6,000,000.
The total amount of cheese manu-
featured last year was $4,000, 900
pounds, 100000 pounds being ched-
dar and the remaining 100000
Swiss, limberger, brick, etc. The to-
tai value of this product was S6,000,-
900. Green county in the southern
part, which contains the Swiss settle
ment Of New Glarus, to which the
state is chiefly indebted for the de-
velOpmert of it's dairy interests, con-
tains four times as many cheese fac
tories as any other county, the total
number being 232. Sheboygan county
on the Lake Michigan shore, comes
next, then Dodge, Manitowoc, Kewau-
nee, La Fayette and Iowa in the order
named. The entire southern half Of
the state and the Mississippi valley to
ST. Paul may be said to be sown with
cheese factories, striking exception
being Milwaukee county, which has
but one cheese factory and one cream
cry, the creamery being located with
in the limits of the metropolis. The
entire northern tier of counties is des-
titute of factories and creameries,
with the single exception of Ashland
county, which has two cheese facto-
rieS and one creamery. Ihe same
may be said Of the second northern
tier, with the exception of two coun-
ties. Dane county contains "a cream
cries and 40 cheese factories, an enor-
nous amount of milk from the sur
rounding county being handled at the
university dairy building. The ad-
joining county of Columbia has 23
creameries and 10 cheese factories,
while Sank county has "a creameries
and "a cheese factories.

and the exposition was ended.
The exposition has not been a flnan-
cial success, but it is believed the ben
efits derived from it will be Of great
value to the commercial interests Of
the country The primary object of
the exposition was to advance the
relations and commercial in
tercourse between the United States
and other countries Of the two Amer
icas. In this respect it has been
decided success.
The financial losses will De in the
neighborhood of 100000. The loss
will fall upon the holders of common
stock, holders of second mortgage
bonds and contractors who erected
the buildings. Two hundred ten
thousand shares of common stool: were
sold at $40 a share. The stock was
for by citizens of Buffalo
and the Niagara frontier in small lots
from one share to a hundred, SO the
loss will not be seriously felt by any
one. First mortgage bonds amount
ing to S2.500,000 will be paid in full.
