BALLOONISTS TAKE TRIP
OF OVER 1877 MILES

Meriden, N. H., Sept. 6.-After being
In the air four hours. during which time
127 miles of northern Massachusetts,, ver-
mont and New Hampshire were travelled
over, the big balloon Stevens 21. piloted by
Leo Stevens, with Mr.. and Mrs. Max
Fleischmann OF Cincinnati as passengers,
made a successful descent here at o'clock
last evening.
The balloon rose from North Adams in
the afternoon and driven by fresh
northwesterly breeze, sailed for the green
hills of Vermont.
Sailing a portion of the time below
the clouds and then in dense banks of
mist the balloon was carried near Will
mington, VT. There the balloon struck a
southeasterly course and headed for
Greenfield. Mass. and within sight OF the
Connecticut river. where another air cur
rent swept the big bag up the river valley
In a northerly direction.
Up the beautiful valley to Windsor,
VT, the voyagers sailed. until a north
east air current swept them across the
Connecticut river into New Hampshire,
and at supper time the travellers made an
easy descent here. They will return to
New York today.

TIGERS ARE
CONFIDENT

Detroit, Mich, Sept 6-Hughey Jen-
nings is confident his Detroit team will
land the American league, pennant, not
withstanding that the Athletics have a
stretch OF 30 games on their home
grounds. The injury TO Jimmy Collins
ankle. which will keep him out OF the
game for the rest of the season. will
weaken the Athletics, and makes the De-
troits chances of winning the nag bright
er than ever
THE man who calculates that Detroit
has no chance to win the pennant is dead
wrong" says Hughey.
The Tigers have very good chance"
he continued. and are handicapped in no
way. The pitchers are on edge, the bat
ters are hitting and the boys are working
together like beavers
II sincerely believe that II the Tigers
are able to start their second Eastern in
yasion i'm first place with a lead OF two or
able to overhaul us. l have confidence
that the team will remain at the top.
THE long stretch OF home games In
Philadelphia. 30 in all. should be of a
great advantage 10 the Athletics but
they are going TO get some awful battles
In their ball yard. Chicago, Cleveland and
Detroit will make them step all the time.
IL they can win repeatedly from these
clubs they will certainly seal the Tigers
doom, so far as the flag is concerned. but
1 can't see how the Athletics can hope
to NOW down the three strong first divi-
sion teams. It's possible, of course, but
not logical.
I'm optimistic because believe that 1
have the gamest club in the race, the
best ball nine I'm the league, and what s
more. a party OF aggressive. gingerly
players, who have their hearts and hopes
set on winning the flag.
II am not claiming that Detroit will win
the flag; that would show conceit. but
will say that the Tigers have chance.
and a mighty good chance.
THE race Is still a hot affair. The Ath>
letics, Chicago and Cleveland are all af-
ter Detroit's scalp. At the same time their
hides are coveted by the Tigers.
Its battle royal, but, as / said be-
fore, Detroit has as good chance as any
OF the first four clubs. The players share
the same sentiment"
