JUMPS SUCCESSFULLY
FROM 160O-FOOT CLIFF
Graham Likewise Lands Successfully
Being Aided by Montana Airship.

Special to The Globe.
GARDINER, Mont, Aug. S.-A man
giving his name as Robert Graham
and his residence as Frankfort, N. Y.
has leaped from a 1,600-foot cliff In the
national park, and lives to tell the tale.
More than that, he says, he enjoyed
the jump and will, as soon as he can
find higher. cliff, jump still greater
distance. He Is an enthusiast on the
subject of high jumping. but draws the
line at giving exhibitions for money.
Graham did not simply leap out into
the air from the top Of the cliff. He
carried with him when he jumped
small airship. half balloon, half para
chute, by means of which he was en-
abled to reach the ground gradually
and in safety.
The man has been employed at
Frankfort, N. Y, M the construction OF
an airship for William Benbow and as
sociates, of Red Lodge, this state, and
is on a western tour for pleasure. He
brought with him a small edition of
the Benbow airship in order to give 1t
a practical test That it worked sue
cessfully is demonstrated by the fact
that Graham is today walking around
in good health after leaping out into
space from one of the biggest cliffs in
the park.
All over the central west portion of
Montana there is great interest in the
Benbow airship, as the inventor is well
known. He has been resident of Red
Lodge for several years, and when not
working on flying machines is mana
ger of big sheep ranch.
