ARMY BALLOONS PLAY HAVOC.
Two Escape and Fly Wild Over Seye-
Inl Western States.

Kansas City, Dec. 3..-Two United
States observation balloons that were
unleashed by accident and shot un-
guided into the air were brought ITO
the ground early tonight. One, a
huge bag of the French type, escaped
from students at Fort Omaha, Neb.,
late yesterday, and, trailing 5000
feet OF steel lettering cable, travelled
a spectacular course through Nebras-
ka, Kansas, Oklahoma and thence
back into Nebraska, where it was
captured. The other, apparently a
smaller tyne. carried two army off,
GERS when its anchor line was broken
by an airplane. The balloon was
brought down by the men about 80
miles from Fort Sill, Okla, where 1t
had broken away.
Hide and Seek.
The Fort Omaha balloon. inflated
with $4,000 cubic feet of gas, for
nearly Cd hours played gigantic
game OF hide and seek with Kansas
cities and towns, as strong winds
waited 1t back and forth, the thou
sands Of feet Of heavy cable drag
ging the ground throughout the
course, aid left q trail of destroyed
telephone and telegraph wires in its
path. Whole blocks Of wires were
town down and poles broken Off or
uprooted.
at Newton, Kan, much damage
was done to residences and business
blocks when the bag dragged it's
"tail' in path across the town. At
another place the roof of a house was
dragged off.
Officers Unhult.
The flight Of the Fort Sill fugitive,
while less spectacular. than that of
the Nebraska stray, caused the more
apprehension among army officials
and others because two officers were
carried aloft with 1t. The officers,
however, brought the gas bag to the
ground in safety. Neither man was
injured and the balloon was not dam
aged. reports say. The officers would
not comemnt on their flight.
The airplane that crashed into the
cable that controlled the Fort Sill
balloon was slightly damaged, and
fluttered 100 feet to the ground. The
pilot was not seriously injured.

ter an operation she was thought to
(. be doing nicely, when she was sud

Texas.
Maud was an intelligent, energetic
and obedient child and was much
loved by all, especially her school
mates. At school she was ever in
her place, ready and willing to do any
task that might be assigned her. She

She finished the 9Th grade last spring

She took pleasure in filing her
