Owing to the rapid progress made on
the new National Museum building, it has
been decided to hold the tuberculosis
congress there in September. The build
ing will not be completed by that time
by any means. but the main hall will be
in condition for the general congress, and
some Of the smaller rooms will be ready
for the sections.
Preparations are being made for the
removal Of Greenough's statue Of Wash
ington from the east front Of the Capt.
tol to the Smithsonian Institution. It
probably will be housed in the Smith

form the nucleus Of a national collection
Of statuary. Plans are being drawn now
for a suitable base. The work Of re-
moval will be under the direction Of the
superintendent of the Capitol. in accord
anoe with the bill passed at the last ses.
sion.

board-Aeronauts in Water to
waists-Lands I'm Michigan.

CHICAGO, Ill. July More thrilling
adventures with the wind and water were
added Yesterday to the stories of the inter
national balloonists in their race flight
from Chicago to establish q new long
distance record
Tho Canadian balloon King Edward.
with John Bennett as pilot and Gerald
Gregory. fifteen years old. as the other
member OF the crew, dropped into Lake
Michigan twice.
Like the Vile de Dieppe, the French
balloon. which nearly cost the lives OF
Can't. A. E. Mueller and George Schoen-
ech when ten miles OF the Illirois
shore, the King Edward sank into the
water and submerged the two occupants
to their shoulders. They were nearly in
midlake when the balloon took its first
dip.
Sudden, Swift Drop.
1--WE had just lost sight Of the sky
rockets and Fourth Of July display in
Chicago when we suddenly felt ourselves
sinking into the lake with a fearful DROP
said Gregory. who returned yesterday
with the balloon. which finally landed
near Port Huron, Mich: :.
I'VE had our heads down in the bot
tom Of the basket. arranging things Tor
the night When we looked up again we
were not more than 100 feet from the
water. We Immediately tossed over near
ly all our ballast.
1--WE could not stop the car from strik-
ing the water. It caused a great splash.
We were in the lake up to our waists.
1.-TWO sacks Of sand were washed of.
We managed to go up again after being
in the water about five Of ten minutes.
We had our life preservers on.
Then we assembled to a height of
about 1000 feet and went along at fast
pace. We could not see the water be-
low. Suddenly we felt ourselves dropping
again.
Climb into Netting.
''This time the descent was more rapid.
We had thrown all excess ballast over
board and were at a loss what to do. We
shot down into the lake as II we were
diving into 1t.
1.-THE water came into the basket. We
were forced to climb to the netting above.
We tossed out everything we had, includ-
Ing provisions and rose again.
Before we went up we were bouncing
along over the waves. driven by the wind
I thought we never were going to get up
into the air again: When we finally did
go up we went fast Mr.. Bennett said We
went up 5000 feet in six minutes.
I've had no sand. When we came in
sight Of Lake Huron. early In the morn
ing. we decided not to risk the chance Of
crossing 1t, as the distance was $50 miles.
&c. although we were up at an altitude
Of 5000 feet, we came down gently.
