Flint, Mich, Aug. S0,-In the
presence of hundreds of people, Ia
year old Chester Belts, son of Bert
N. Belts, of Flint, was accidentally
caught by the guy ropes of a bal
loon to-day and carried about 1000
feet in the air before the rope un-
tangled and hurled him to his death
He crashed against the roof of a
barn and was still alive when spec
tators reached him, but he soon ex-
pired.
The tragedy occurred at coun-
ty fair and when the balloon and
aeronaut shot upwards many peo-
pie thought the youth dangling at
the end of a rope was dummy
The heroic efforts of the balloonist
to rescue the boy soon disclosed the
truth to the crowd below AS the
big gas bag crept higher and higher
the aeronaut in peril of his own
safety could be seen working des-
perately to pun the dangling form
to the trapeze. Finally the rope
swirled away from the lad and the
tiny form dropped downward like n
stone.

Doctor Johannsen of lcopenhagen
has made 1t possible for lilies-of-the

means of which he makes the plants

Mount Steele. Mount Steele is only
16,439 feet high, while Mckinley
towers more than 10000 feet. Mount
Steele is little to the eastward of

region now being explored by the

All the mountains in the direction
indicated by Miss Keen have been
fairly we'll determined by the sur

from which Mount Steele and other
peaks were observed, is 1910 feet
high, 800 feet lower than Steele.

The following suggestion as TO
how to destroy ants appears in the
current issue of Farm and Fireside:
THE best and easiest method
have ever found for destroying ants,
whether they are in the house or on
the lawn. is to take large sponge,
wet it and sift fine sugar all over
it and lay 1t in the place that is in
tested. The ants will soon fill the
sponge Take 1t and sink it in pail
of water; they will then leave the
sponge and rise to the top of the
water end can easily be destroyed.
Sprinkle more sugar on the sponge
and put 1t in place again. This re-
peated few times will soon enable
the housewife to destroy all the
ants"
