But Prudence, looking at him with

that she could not go. He felt a

of the Aero Club, New York. arrived Sat

they descended Friday afternoon in the
Signal Corps balloon No. 10, after travel
ing 473 miles from st. Louis. The aerial
aavigators left for st. Louist Saturday
night.
1--WE could have been in the air yet. per-
haps. as we had plenty of provisions, If
we had not struck the mountains" said
Capt. Chandler: 'also. we wanted to get
back to st. Louis in time for the races
today. Our balloon behaved splendidly.
We started from st. Louis in a north

H.. where we had an exciting race with a
passenger train on the Wabash railroad,
our favor. and when we were directly
over Edwardsville. the train and the car
were side by side at least half a mile
away. I don't know whether the train
men were trying to beat US, or not, but we
beat them.
when north of Indianapolis, the wind
changed and we turned to south of east
and sailed south of Dayton, Ohio. Thurs
day morning. shortly after daylight, We
were over Clinton county, Ohio. We

polis, Ohio, about 1O:45 o'clock Thursday
forenoon. We were headed for Charles
ton. w. Va. and it appeared that We
would make the landing easy.
I'VE wanted to stop in Charleston SO
that we could get back to ST. Louis in
time for the big events today. We
were congratulating ourselves on the fact
that we should be0n a town where we
could get a train most any time, when
the wind suddenly shifted. We were car
ried toward the mountains of West Vir-
ginia at a rapid rate. We realized that if
We got into the mountains far We should
be unable to participate in the st. Louis
races, and this thought worried us not a
little, and we decided to descend. The
descent was made easily, without mishaE
to ourselves or the balloon.
we landed on steep hillside three
miles north of Walton. The spot was
about as wild as one would care to see
The side of the hill was so steep that one
