The balloons progress was stayed, but the bas-
ket began 20 sink.
Meanwhile the plight Of the aeronauts had
been seen by the skipper of the auxiliary sloop
Adalene, which is used as a ferryboat between
East 134th street. Manhattan and Clasens Point
Captain Leighter at once put about and ran
down TO where the heads of the three men
barely showed above the water. He brought
his boat about so that the basket was thrown
against the port bow, his short bowsprit ram
ming a hole in the half emptied bag. The edge
of the basket was just flush with the surface
Hare handed his valise of drenched plates
aboard, and the three men were pulled on board
as the basket sank.
While the three were being pulled board
the bag tore loose from the bowsprit and drifted
aft, where the rigging became entangled with
the propeller. Hare jumped into the boat which
had first seized the bag, and was Fowed ashore
with his plates After the propeller Of the Ada
lene had been cleared the two were taken
to a Clason's Point hotel, where their clothes
were dried The wreckage OF the balloon was
towed ashore by the pilot boat Gloria.

MRS BELMONT TO BUILD CHAPEL.
Though a Protestant. She Has Prom.
 ised Catholic Servant to Do So.

Hampstead, L. l., June S.-Mrs Oli- yer H. P. Belmont will build a chapel as a branch of the Roman Catholic church of Our Lady of Loretta. The site for the chapel was given to the church some time ago by friend of Mrs Belmont and the chapel will be built not far from Mrs Belmont's home.
 Mrs Belmont is not Catholic, and it is said she agreed to build the chapel at the urgent request of an old servant in her household. This woman went to the Rev Father Far rel. pastor of the church, and offered him her life savings to build a chapel and the priest after thanking her warmly said he thought he would be able to raise the necessary money to build the edifice and advised her to keep her money in the bank, where she would have it if she ever needed it. She then went back to the Bel mont house and told her story to Mrs Belmont and so interested her that she later asked permission to build the chapel herself.

Politics is beginning to form the chief topic of discussion in Washing ton, and naturally the subject of the coming presidential election comes in for its usual share of gossip. AL though the nominating convention for the presidential race is two years of, much gossip is going the rounds as to the prospects of the leading can didates for the running. Secretary Elmer Dover of the republican na- tional committee says that if the re- publican national convention was held next month the nominee would be ce-President Fairbanks or Sec retary Shaw. MT Fairbanks is very popular with the people," said Mir Dover. However, do not mean to say that he will be the nominee. It would be foolish to predict who the nominee of either party will be in 1908, as before that time some man may loom up who is not now thought of. But just now the friends of M- Fairbanks and Secretary Shaw are running nip and tuck race in lining up the forces of their respective can didates. In Ohio if Mir Taft went on the bench Senator Foraker could have the delegation, and if Mir For aker preferred to remain in the sen ate. Taft could have 1t. In case both were after the honor, there would be a lively fight"

Vigorous protests are being re- ceived both by President Roosevelt and members of congress-senstors and representatives, the en- actment of the anti-pass provision of the railroad rate bill. The protests are coming not from the general pub lie. but from railroad men. Under the anti-pass provision, as agreed upon by the senate and house con- ferees. a railroad corporation cannot issue free transportation across any two or more states even to its own employees. The provision has aroused serious objections from every rail road quarter. As rule. railroad off, ficials and employees regard free transportation over their own road
 and other lines as a part of their sal aries. They are obliged to travel to considerable extent in the course of their business. On actual business of their roads it is likely their fare would be paid by the corporations by which they are employed. but heretofore they have been able to negotiate free transportation for themselves and members of thei. families. The cutting oT of this per Quisite of their official positions means a great deal to them in the course of a year. and, naturally. they resent any action of congress which is intended to deprive them of what they regard as their proper rights.

Automobilists in general will be glad to know that the so-called free alcohol bill'' has passed the United States senate and that all that is lacking now to make the measure a law is the signature of President Roosevelt. As the president has been a staunch advocate of the measure all along there is no fear of any slip up now. Since the original bill was introduced in the house of represen- tatives it has been amended so that it will not become operative as law until January 1. The bill simply provided for the removal of the in- ternal revenue tax from domestic al- cohol to be used in arts and indus tries and for fuel, light and power. The National Association of Automo- bile Manufacturers and the Automo- bile club of America were both back of the agitation.

The plant is to be known as the Chesapeake Sugar Refinery, and is to have cash capital of $1,250,- 900. The refinery is to provide for an output of 1,500 barrels of refined sugar per day.

In 1916 Mrs. Abbott, with some
family property. bought the house
known as the Wayside, since Haw-
thorne bought and renamed it in
1852, says F. B.. Sanborn in the Crit
ic. The Alcotts had called it Hill
side and had passed pleasant child
hood years here. Louisa's story tell
ing gift was developed here. and in
the barn her earliest plays we're act
ed by herself and her sisters and
schoolmates. In her earliest years at
Concord she had been for short
time a pupil of Henry Thoreau and
still earlier of her fathers Boston
school. Her other education came If
regularly from her parents, from a
temporary governess and sometimes
from town schools, but she always
missed the careful education that
most of the Concord girls had, either
in public or in private schools.
