CAUGHT in Hurricane.

Montreal, Quebec, Oct. 24.-The thrill
ling story of perils and privations en-
dured in an adventurous balloon voy-
age from ST. Louis to spot some six
ty miles above La Tuque was told by
August Blanckertz. assistant pilot Of
the balloon Germania, who arrived at
Montreal to secure medical treatment,
leaving his chief, Hugo Won Abercon,
behind to see to the shipment of the
balloon.
Blanckertz was met by his wife.
His face was swollen and raw and his
nerves in a state Of intense excite
ment that he was hardly coherent.
He pleaded to be left alone. but finally
consented to give the barest details
of the trip.
The balloonists met a hurricane af-
ter they left Lake Huron, losing signt
of all their companion balloons. The
gale carried them along sixty miles an
hour for day ard night They
were battered until they could hard
ly endure it any longer They were
in pitiful condition when they struck
the line Of the National Trans-conti-
mental in northern Quebec.
They followed the railroad until
they were travelling away from hu-
man habtation they descended. It
was bitter fight thru the bush to
the railway track. A construction
train took them to La Tuque, where
they recuperated. They are convinced
that they have won the prize.
