SAIL INTO A STORM.
Aeronauts Encounter a Hurricane
10000 Feet Up.

st. Louis. June 3o.-Whipped help
lessy to and fro like a feather by a
go mile gale in dense black storm
cloud 10000 feet above the earth, John
Berry and NJ. A. Holman lived through
an experience of a lifetime. Berry, win
ner of the Indianapolis distance cup and
Heiman who is seeking balloon pilots
license assembled in the Melba yester-
day afternoon. They nearly met death
on a derrick at the start.
They were carried swiftly to an alti-
tude of 10000 feet into a thunder cloud.
Here the frail bag was dashed about
by a mereiless hurricane. At times
the balloon lay on level with the
basket as the wicker was pitched high
up by a sudden jerk. In vain the two,
coatless and freezing with cold pitched
off bag after bag of ballast.
They pulled the emergency valve.
Awe struck, they felt their hearts
thump hard when they saw the gas
escaping, saw the sides of the bag al
most collapse, yet knew they were not
descending.
Berry climbed aloft on the frail cords
and tied the appendix so it would hold
the gas in. In spite of this precaution
the bottom slowly telescoped. The bag
came down as a parachute.
They landed safely but Heiman
sprained his ankle in getting out of
the basket, at Rockhill, ten miles >from
ST Louis.
