garded by many as the most careful
captain on the Pacific, and he never
takes a risk. Hour after hour he stood
on the bridge never for a moment
coming below, and drinking his morn
damp. For a time the fog was so
dense that we did not expect to dock
that day but gradually it lifted a lit
tie and soon our pilot boat ran along
er with all sails set, doomed up ahead
of us out of the fog like a phantom
ship. So near she was we could al
most have heard a whispered message.
Soon the red hull of the San Fran
cisco, the light ship which is anchored
outside the heads, cleaned at us its
bright welcome to port, and then just
as the veil of fog was pushed back
disclosing the new day with all its
glory of sunshine, we passed in
through the Golden Gate and ran
alongside our dock only an hour late
and home once more.

arrived in winter fiannels and broad
cloth tailor suits, and were loath to
relinquish our rugs to our steamer
trunks even as we felt the gang plank
beneath our feet. In San Francisco
there is the tang of fall in the air,
and already everybody is wearing win
ter suits and velvet hats and furs, and
the men scurry by in overcoats in the
late afternoon-while here when we
thought we had said goodbye to sum-
mer we find it all over again and in

BALLOON PARTY
NEAR TO DEATH
SAVED FROM FAILING INTO DE-
LAWARE BAY BY NARROW
MARGIN

PHILADELPHIA, September 10
Skillful ballooning saved three Phila-
delphians who left here yesterday in
the balloon Philadelphia, from being
dumped into the middle OF Delaware
bay late last night. In the basket
were DR.. Thomas E. Eldrldge, Lieu
tenant F. d. Kiigore of the United
States Marine Corps, and Thomas
Rose, treasurer of the Philadelphia
Aeronautical Recreation Society. I'm
der this society's auspices the ascen-
sion was made.
After crossing over Millville, N. j.,
the party discovered a rent in the bal
loon, and decided to land. A dense
fog gathered at this time, and the
land could not be seen. When about
1900 feet high, the party heard break
ers. The balloon then had been torn
from base to middle, and was falling
rapidly. In a few minutes the drag
rope was in the water and the men
were within a hundred feet Of the sur
face of the bay.
They cut away the drag rope, threw
ali the ballast overheard, and rose
several thousand feet. They heard the
fog horns blowing ana saw a light
house, and estimated that they were
two miles from shore. Finally they
sighted a marshy strip of land, and
alighted on it. They returned to PM
ladelphia tonight.

FIGHTING POSTAL
~ SAVINGS BANK BILL

Chicago. Dec. 29.-In special
news article under Washington
date, the Record-Herald yesterday
says
Great pressure is being brought to
bear upon senators and Represen-
tatives in favor of the passage of the
postal savings bank bill. Most of
this pressure comes from the Missis-
sippi valley. where public opinion in
favor of the postal bank is very
strong, Senator Aldrich and the
other leaders of the upper branch
have already decided that the pend
ing bill cannot pass at this session.
and 1t Is probable they will have
their way.
The plan is to hold up the postal
bank bill until the comprehensive
financial plant the reorganization OF
our whole banking and currency sys-
tenn which the National Monetary
commission is now preparing, may be
ready for the consideration of con-
4 gress.
This does not suit the Western OF
progressive Republicans. They do not
want to wait. and Sc emo reason why
there should be so much delay They
take the view held by Judge Taft
that the Republican party, having
pledged itself TO the postal savings
bank plan, no valid argument car
be brought forward in defense of I'm.
definite postponement of carrying
out the promise.
