DCRlNG the Franco-Prussian war there occurred
IN broad daylight and in full view of Paris one of
the strangest duels on record, fight with pistols in
the sky. A French war balloon the Intrepide, was
floating IN the air about three thousand meters
above the tort at Clarendon. Presently there ap-

sport so novel and picturesque as
balloonlng, sport so full of uncertainty,
often of peril, there must of necessity be
- much OF strange and romantic adven-
ture. AS matter of fact there is prob
ably no field of human activity in which
there have occurred so many thrilling and
romantic episodes as in ballooning. Some of
these adventures have been merely exciting;
others have been perilous. Some have been of
such nature that the aeronaut, although in
greatest danger, was saved only by miracle
others have had fatal termination.
An adventure terminating in a narrow escape
from death by drowning was that of Tules
Duruof Originally Durfour), famous as the
aeronaut in charge of the first balloon to leave
attempt a crossing of the Channel starting
from Calais and descending at Dover. The
ascension was widely advertised, and at the
appointed time an immense concourse of people
assembled to see the balloon start
The wind was most unfavorable for Duruof's
purpose; tor 1T was very strong and blowing
straight over the North Sea- Under these
circumstances and in spite of a noisy demon
thought best to forbid the ascension, and, in
order to make sure that his orders would be
carried out, instructed the police to remove the
car and keep it in charge.
But Duruof, who had absolutely no sense of
tear, determined not to disappoint the crowd
and by connecting specious story managed to
deceive the authorities and regain possession of
his car. After much vexatious delay the start
was hnally made at dusk. Duruof was accom-
panied by his young and beautiful wife who
rather than endure the anxiety of remaining
behind in suspense, had induced him to make
her his companion on this hazardous sky
journey. Something of the risk will be under
stood when it is stated that. owing to the
peculiar circumstances of the start the vovaqers
took with them neither food nor drink, and
that Nine. Duruof was without either hat or
wrap. They carried in all less than two hun
dred pounds OF ballast
The balloon rose rapidly and was soon lost to
sight in the deepening twilight. Duruof was
entirely ignorant of the direction of his flight;
but was aware that the balloon, caught in
terrific gale, was being borne onward in some
quarter at rapid speed At last, after an
anxious night, morning dawned and Duruof
discovered that, still at the mercy of furious win
he was being carried out directly over the sea.
to this time the balloon had kept well up in the a
But soon after dawn it began to slowly Settle dow
FlnIally' IN spite of the sacrifice, not only of
ballast but of everything that could be cast fro
the car, it plunged into the waves.

the gas bag contracted, and the balloon began to
sink with alarming rapidity. In vain did the fool
hardy aeronaut throw out the remainder of his
ballast. The balloons descent did not abate. All
the while the earth remained obscured below the

jury of twelve men tried the case
which was conducted by Lawyer Lev

plaintiff.
After the trial of the case was con.
cluded and the jury had retired an.
other suit by the same company and
Roy l.. Lewis, the plaintiff, son of
the executrix, covering the same
property.
The company put in no appearance,
but the Court allowed the trials to
proceed and the testimony to be taken.
There being no claim proven by the
company the jury was out but short
time in the first case, and returned a
verdict that they found that the prop
erty belonged to the plaintiff.
The other jury went out and it is
quite apparent that they will return
the same kind of verdict.

A rumor. quiet. but nevertheless in

is rife that the old Cobansey glass
plant will be operated again. The
rumors have been floating about for
some time, and while there is no off,

to feel that the rumor is true.
The company owning the plant has
been operating in Pennsylvania
