FRENCH BALOoN1sTs KILLED

released the balloon and proceeded south
ward at height of 800 or 400 feet.
The propellers of the machine appeared
to work we'll; the rudder, however, was
not quite successful. Soon the balloon
had returned to above the ground of
departure, and then it gradually
mounted higher and higher, untill it
disappeared in the clouds When the
balloon was above st. Aims, near st.
Dennis, about 5Hmiles from the center

cause and the car with its occupants,

ADMIRAL srLFR1DGE Is DEAD
He Was the Oldest Living .Ohicer of
That Rank In Any Navy.

He Was the Oldest Living :Ohicer of
That Rank In Any Navy.
Boston-Rear Admiral Thomas o.
Selfridge, Sr., U. S. NJ, retired died at
the Mclean asylum at Waverly recent
ly.
He was probably the oldest living
officer of rank in any navy Of the world
and there is no other navy which had
two admirals, father and son both re-
tired. The elder admiral was born in
Massachusetts and was appointed to the
navy from that state on January l.,
1918. The son, Rear Admiral Thomas
O. Selfridge was born February 16,
1885, and joined the navy at the age of
15.
The second eldest son is Commander
James Russell Selfridge, born July IL,
l849, and in the navy since 1854.
During the senior Selfridge's earlier
days he made some voyages in mer-
chant vessels, as the navy was consid-
eredably reduced in ships for many
years after the war of 1912, and there
was but scant employment for the Off
GERS. He took an active part in the
Mexico war and was severely wounded.
When the civil war broke out Com
mander Selfridge was too far advanced
in years to accept active duty at sea and
he was assigned as commandant Of the
Mare island navy yard, 1862-64, and
again in 1878. In the latter year all
retired officers were withdrawn from
active service and Admiral Selfridge
resided at Georgetown, S. c., but fo1
many years he paid annual visits to
San Francisco, where he had two sons
residing.

ed as sociologist. The president add
ed Bishop Spalding Of Illinois to the list
of five members, suggested by the oper'
ators.
AS named, the commission is perfect
" satisfactory to both miners and oper
ators. Assent of the miners was giver
through President Mitchell and Mr.
Sargent, commissioner of immigration
and of the operators through Rober
Bacon and George w. Perkins Of thu
banking firm of J. P. Morgan & Co
The final outcome followed series O
conferences, beginning with two dur
ing the day with Mr.. Mitchell and tw'
during the night with Messrs. Bacol
and Perkins. Events moved alonl
quickly at the last, the president being
determined on a speedy settlement
The commission will assemble in few
days and choose chairman, probabl.
