Teheran, Persia. July 19.-Ths gov
ernment is showing resolution and zeal
in the face of the situation created by
the landing on the Caspian coast of the
exiled Shah Mohammed Ali Mira
A coalition cabinet. composed Of
Democrats and Moderates. has been
formed, with Sipahder, leader of the
Nationalists, as premier. The portfolio
of war has been entrusted to Samsan-
Es-Sultaneh. The chief Of the Bakh-

OF the leaders, including Yeprim. a
famous chief of police of the Ba Sh-
tiyaris, have assured the government
of their support against the depcsed
shah.

shah has only a small following and in
financial circles here little Importance
is attached to his action in returning

Those selected by Raffe Emerson. the
pilot and H. W. Jacobs, president of the
association, to make the trip were:
William ". Webb of Topeka. H. G.
Parsons Of Topeka, Carl Deinstbach of
Berlin, Germany, an aeronautical eX-
pert who is visiting in Topeka. and L.
i. Kiene. These four in addition to
Pilot Emerson made up the party.
When it is understood that two mem
bers of the party weigh over 200 POUNDS
each it will be appreciated that To-
peka II had quite a handicap. The
purpose of the trip was 10 try out the
big balloon and to enable Mr.. Emerson
to make the final trip to enable him
TO qualify for a pilot, and last but not
least for the pleasure that such jour
ney brings
The danger of A balloon trip is great
ly Overestimated by the uninitiated.
The people who stand on the ground
and make observations like, What
fool he is to make a trip" NO one
with any sense who has wife and chill
dren at home would make such a trip,
and other similar remarks have seen
people take greater chances a. thousand
times without a murmur. 1t is because
ballOOning is unusual and new that 1t
is regarded as a dangerous sport A
person in an automobile may hit q. post
or a tree and wreck his machine, he
may go into ditch or have a coils
ion with a team and wagon with
all the attendant dangers. In a ball
loon there is no danger of collision.
You have an unrestricted right of way
except for the clouds and should you
collide with a cloud the shock will not
pitch you out of the basket nor retard
your progress. The writer returned
last night after his experience without
hurt or injury and at the same time
one of his friends in running to catch
a street car fell on the pavement and
was so severely bruised that he is un-
der the doctors care today So it is
fair to say that if you want to take a
pleasant safe journey take a balloon
trip.
