END AERIAL HONEYMOON.
Balloon Lands Fourteen Miles from
Boston, thinning Prize.

Holbrook Mass. June 2O-The balloon Pitts
field which ascended from Pittsfeld shortly
after midnight to-day carrying Mr.. and Mrs
moon voyage. descended about a mile from the
centre of this town at APO o'clock this morning
after pleasant and uneventful trip.
The balloon broke all aerial records of at
te-lpts to reach Boston from Western Massachu-
setts, which makes II claimant for the trophy
offered by a Boston newspaper to the balloon
which landed nearest the capital within a year
The previous record was a landing about twen-
ty-sx miles in an air line from Boston, while
the Pittsheld came within fourteen miles of the
city. The distance covered was about one hun
dred and twenty miles the crow flies
The balloon, piloted by William Van Sleet.
ascended at 12:45 o'clock this morning from
Aero Park before the largest crowd which has
witnessed a balloon ascension in Pittsfield
When about two thousand feet in the air Mr..
Van Sleet's statiscOpe refused to perform it's
functions, but by throwing small pieces of paper
from the basket and noting their movements
the passengers were able to calculate roughly
their comparative elevation.
Until the break of dawn. however. the aero
nauts had no idea of their exact location but
when the sun arose they were able to see Blue
Hills and Boston Harbor, and found they were
being taken in a southeasterly direction. which.
II followed would take them out 10 sea. The
landing was made in the yard Of Ralph Gilkey,
at whose house the aeronauts breakfasted. Mr..
Van Sleet packed his balloon and shipped 1t
back to Pittsheld while Mr.. and Mrs. Burnham
continued on their honeymoon.

H0LYHEAD ROUTE FAST
Passengers 4rTiUe IN London Before
Ship at LiUerpOOl.

London, June 2O.-The White Star steamship
Cedric, from New York on June II. arrived at
Holyhead at 11:23 a. m. to-day. The passengers
and mails were landed by noon and left on three
special trains for London. The first OF these
specials arrived at the Euston Station at 5:4S
?. m. so that the passengers were comfortably
seated in the London hotels about the tine the
Cedric arrived off Liverpool.
This IS a new departure, which possibly may
mean the permanent opening of Holyhead as
station for the landing OF the American mails.
and the experiment is regarded in every way as
highly successful. It is contended that Holy
head has the advantage Of ample water at all
stages of the tide to accommodate the largest
liner, and there is no bar at the entrance to the
harbor Advocates OF the abandonment Of
Queenstown as a port Of call point out that the
saving OF time viii be stn greater and that the
suitability of Eolyhead has been amply demon
strated.
White Star officials however. say that there is
no intention at the present time to eliminate
Queenstown. but that the experiment will have
an important bearing Liverpool trade, be-
cause it is possible that the White Star COM
pany's outward steamers may in the future call
at Holyhead to embark passengers. They sug-
gest that this policy has been forced upon the
company as the Mersey Docks and Harbor
Board has been unable TO give accommodation
enabling the company to dispatch its steamers
for New York at satisfactory hour on Satur-
days. The result probably will be that all pas
sengers will be landed at Holyhead- This step
is now under consideration
The statement also was made by the White
Star officials that the experiment VIII be re-
peated with the steamer Baltic.
