How 1t Feels Under a Parachute


When the balloonist has ascended
a mile or so above the earth and hav.
ing cut loose his parachute begins his
swift and perilous descent, what arr
his sensations?
| William Mattern, the Chicago aero
naut, recently made a perilous voyage
Wis, to Wolverine, Mich, preferring tc
risk mis- life to an airship with broker
propeller, rather than be branded as 9
coward and fakir by the crowd that hat
assembled to see him fly. He has had
many thrilling experiences in the all
| with all kinds Of apparatus. The above
question was put to him by a Chicago
reporter and he made this reply:
"The first shock is terrific one, as
the bag Of the parachute must have
time to fill Until it does fill the man
who is dropping goes straight down
with fearful velocity. Just imagine
yourself stepping off a skyscraper! II
the bag doesn't fill you strike the
ground at this frightful speed and are,
of course, instantly killed.
Two Types Of Parachute.
Let me explain that there are in
general use two types of parachute.
One is large circular piece of canvas
with a circular hole in the center Rope
is sewed in the seams around the outer
edge and around the central hole.
From the outer edge Of the piece, and
also of the edges of the inner hore,
thin ropes run downward to a ring
which the aeronaut holds. The para
chute thus differs from a big umbrella
by reason of the central opening,
through which certain amount Of air
passes. Without the central opening
the parachute would sway and soar
dangerously.
1.-The other type has no lines run
ming % the central opening. In descent
this parachute, fifteen or eighteen feet
in diameter, arches from the outer
ropes. This is the type now most COM
monty used.
1.-The older method Of dropping was
like this: The parachute was hung in
the netting Of the balloon, the hang
ring accessible to the balloonist. When
a sufficient height was reached, and
when the situation below seemed fav-
orable to landing-no man whose bal
loon was not afire on who had not been
carried in an unexpected direction
would drop among house roofs-the
balloonist swung loose, his weight
swapping the small cord that held the

Citizens, t Is Said, Have Been
Feeding on HoPsemeat.
POLICE INVESTIGATING THE AFFAIR
FIND cARcASSES OF FAT HORSES
READY FOR MARKET, NEAR
THE CITY.

| YAKIMA, Oct. ga story has
come to light which the authorities
have vainly endeavored to cover ur
pending an investigation.
/ In several instances horses that nave
been butchered and seemingly prepared
for sale, have been discovered in
the woods near this city. Sheriff
Grant investigated one case that had
been reported to him and after going
to the scene east of town in the woods
on the bank of the river he found
where two horses had been butchered
like steers.
Still hanging on the limbs of tree
were a fore and hind quarter of one
of the horses, while the other quar-
tiers of the horses had been taken
away.
In both instances the horess were
large fat animals. The sheriff left tht
meat hanging in the tree. The hides
had been taken off the horses and the
animals had been carefully skinned. In
killing the horses the butchers had
done a good job.
This discovery led the authorities to
believe that possibly men were killing
horses and selling the meat about
town or through the country as beef.
Joe Stephenson, one of the oldest
pioneers in this valley walked into the
sneriff's office and told Sheriff Grant
Of finding portions of the carcass of a
large horse in the woods on his place
out in the school section, and that
looking up into tree not far from the
scene of the butchery he had discov-
cred the hind quarters of the horse
hanging The fore quarters had been
taken away The hide was missing,
and the shoes had been pulled from the
hoofs.
Mr. Stephenson made this discovery
and he has been watching the patch
of woods where the horse was killed
and where the hind quarters still
hang, in the hope Of catching the
man when he came after the balance
of the meat Uncle Joe went to the
spot and as the horsemear was nang-
ing in the same place he decided to
wait no longer but to come in and
report the matter to the proper au-
thorities.
Whether or not there are men in the
| field butchering horses for the mar
ket, or whether it is a case of wan
| ton slaughter of the animals, the au-
| thorities are at a loss to understand
| The fact that bothers Mr.. Stephenson
more than anything else, is that re-
Gently two horses either wandered out
| of his pasture or were stolen and driv-
en- way. The carcass which he dis
covered, however. is not one of the
| horses, but he fears that these may
be butchered in some other secluded
spot, especially when he learned OF
the sheriff's find.
