A 800 Mile Journey.

After notifying the world OF their
safety the aviators at once set about
their preparations for a trip back -
civilization. With the aid of the trad
ing post Indian guides were recruited
and dog teams mobilized. 1t Is thought
the party will be likely TO follow

runners they sent in advance to Mat
tice. but the airmen are not ex-

erous trails of snow and ice. The party
Is expected to COME down the ice OF
the Missanabi River, eventually strik-
ing the Hudson Bay post at Mattice--
a distance of 300 miles.
When arrival of the Indian runners
at Mattice became known whites has
tened into the little settlement from
miles around, eager for word of the
balloonists and a verbal account OF
their aerial adventure. From the few
gutturals uttered by the Indians, resi-
dents of Mattice communicated here
the opinion that. due TO heavy winds.
the balloonists had been unable TO make
safe landing until they hit the ice
fields on James Bay.
They were observed shortly after their
appearance by the Hudson Bay officials
at Moose Factory. who Immediately
sent dog teams and men to their as
sistance and brought them to the Hud-
son Bay post. where everything possl-
BILE was done for their comfort. Their
Christmas dinner was probably not
quite what they would have had In
civilization, but the Indians gave as
surances that there was at least plenty.
IL is fortunate that they landed at the
particular place they did. for fifty miles
away. in either direction, would have
brought them in an uninhabted wilder
ness and their rescue would have been
difficult.

ballcbnists now making their way via
dog sled to an Ontario railhead after

four days, are. believed to be headed
for either Mattice or Cochrane on the
Canadian National Transcontinental

Barring unfavorable weather condi-

reach the railhead Saturday or sun
day. Their progress is necessarily
slow because Of the frozen and snow
swept trails and the cold weather,
which now registers 80 degrees below

With the exception OF the message
which they sent by Indian runners to

of the Department Of Public Welfare
yesterday reported financial crisis in
the charitable institutions of New

The Commissioner said that, as a re
suit Of the numerous charity drives
and the failure of the public to provide
properly for the charitable institutions
many Of those asylums of the city
dependents faced a grave financial
deficit.
Protestant institutions, the official
SAID, were in q most serious condition
as & result of inadequate support. The
total deficit of these alone, he said, is
more than S234,00O.

the Commissioner said, "and which re-
ceive an annual appropriation for the

by the departments, are sadly in need
Of immediate financial assistance
Money is needed at once to continue

all the money that ahe city can afford

ambition to take care Of the children
