 It began to sway back and forth. The ground loomed below. Then they hit, high up in the shattered branches of a shell torn tree. Tho basket tipped and spilled them on- to the earth. Bruised and shaken, Tub arose and stood watching Murphy as he struggled erect. The balloon, mass of flame and black smoke, was still falling through the skies. Tub sighed with relief. He felt himself all oyer to make sure that he was really alive.
 Huh" said Tub, as he gazed at Murphy. And you're the guy who called me lunatic because flew plane? Listen, fellah, me I'm headin' back for the squadron where it's comparatively safe! We may be lunatics, but there's some thin far worse"
 What's that?" Murphy shouted at the rapidly retreating Tub.
 Turning his head to answer over his shoulder but never stopping, Tub replied: "Balloonatics, guy. balloonatics.'

HEADS FALL IN
 BRIBERY FIGHT
Chinese Decree Execution to End Corruption in
 Public Office

Pe:ping, China-(UP)-In what purports to be official determina- ton to end bribery, graft and other forms of corruption in public of- ice. the officials of the autonomous Chinese regime at Canton have dc creed execution as punishment for plundcring the public coffers.
 At least three persons have been put to death in the Canton area for violating the public trust. The latest was Tan Yin-chuing. He was director of the business tax bureau until he faced firing squad following his trial and con- viction on charges of receiving bribes.
 Shortly before Tan's execution, the magistrate and chief of police of Lienshan, district near Can ton, were put to death for taking bribes. Ruling officials in the Can ton area warn that. the death pen. ,alty will Continue to be. exacted ln til corruption in public office has been ended.
 y The now departure, for Chinese oficialdom is accompanied by f growing disapprova1 of nepotisn. Under the new order of things, q newly. appointed Chinese ocial im- nIediately upon >hisf assumption of oce, inserts notices in the vernacu- lar newspapers informing hi.; friends. and especially his relatives that vacancies in his oce just do not exist. The procedure rarely stems the rush of applicants for jobs. but at least it makes the re- jection of petitions easier.

down. He does it at odd times, but not much, We're so far back that he has to use his heavy artillery and he doesn't like to waste them on 'us!'
 Tub smiled. That was the bal loon service for you! Rarely under fire! Too far back! They didn't get shot down by Archie! It was a soft life! Well, there was some luck about being brought down this morning other than the luck of still being alive. He was right at bal loon and now he could get some first-hand information. He might be able to have a word put in for him so that he could transfer. Tub hastened toward two officers who were approaching.
 Introductions followed. Both of ficers were iieutenants, one by name of Cowan and the other Murphy. Tub instinctively warm ed to Murphy. He was Irish and possessed happy disposition.
 ''SO you're one of those lunatics who fly planes, are yOu?" he be- gan. "Well, for all of me, you can have them. I'll stick to the DAAAOOAh5s lhO AAAO AAH"J HWY ON eNo fast, but it's longer"
 Tub agreed with him and Mur- phy looked at him, somewhat sur prised. It was strange to hear a man agree with another that his service was not the best in the army. Then, after they were seated in the balloon officers quarters and had tilted bottle of Three Star few times, Murphy was more surprised.
 Tub wanted to leave his branch of the service and join theirs. He'd love to make a trip with Murphy to see what it was like.
 Murphy looked at Cowen and the later nodded. Well, we might ar range for you to come up with me in a little while. I have to observe an artillery shoot soon and you could come along, I guess. You're not supposed to, but you're an air officer, so--"

OLD MONEY
 MILL RECALLED
Delaware COunty's Day Revived as Imitation
 Is Discussed

West Chester. Pa-(UP)-Cur- rent talk of imitation has revived tales of the million dollar town" of a previous imitation period.
 It is the community of Glenn Mills, Delaware county, which fiourished in Civil war days when paper money with face value of $3,0 O,000, ,OO0 was made there in a log cabin mill for Abraham Lin- coln's government.
 Uncle Pat O'Keefe, seated In his cottage. which is half log cabin, a relic of the stirring war days, re- calls the period wildly.
 The greenbacks were made by the "Government Bank-Note Paper Works" owned by the Wilcox fani- fly and famous for 1b0 years for its bank paper.
 The government stamps and bonds, used to finance the govern ment during the Civil war period, were made there. It is' estimated that $449, 100000 in greenbackB, $50. 1000, ,0OO in fractional currency. y7a0, 100000 in revenue stamps, and si,f00 100000 in government bonds were issued by the govern ment tO finance the war, and most of the paper was made at olen Mills.

little comfort.
 With the inauguration of MIRA, beneficial reactions have become apparent. Improvement has been notable with respect to wages and employment. Gains for the work CTS are indicated by present em ployment level exceeding the pre- depression level, and by shorter working hours with generally im- proved wages. The monthly payrolls of the industry have increased from 12,800.000 in March to an average of $26,O00,000 for the lat three months. Purchasing power of the cotton textile workers has increased by some $59,00O,O0O be- tween March and November.
 For the industry as a whole, the greatest gain has been reasonable control of over-capacity through limitation on machine hour oper- ation under the provisions of tho cotton textile code. This limita- ton, besides removing much of the threat of over-production, has contributed to enabling the indus try to see its way sufficiently ahead to carry the burdens added by code provisions for re-employ- IuSHL, SAOTlcEe WOIhlnB IOuES dAtN higher wages. Maintenance of production more reasonably ball. anceds with market demand no longer seemed visionary. The ten- dency in the ndusrty. recently rei- fiected by sancton of the adminis- trator for a further temporary limitation on productive machine hours during December. is against building up stocks in excess of market requirements.
 Application of self-regulating powers promises more stabilized market and employment situation in 1884 than has been experienced by the industry for the past four or five years. Prices obtained by the industry for its products. while improved. have so far done little mroe than offset increased costs of production under the code. For earnings reflecting q living return on investment, the industry still loks to the expected general in- provement in national purchasing power predicated by universal ap- plication of MIRA,

 There were hardly any instru- ments such as in a plane. Only good glasses and a telephone. used in conjunction with a detailed map of the immediate front, were neces- sary to carry out the shoot. Mur- phy gave the command and the balloon rose swiftly and smoothly through the air.

HEADIN' SOUTH

Neigh ho Let the winds screech, Tomorrow I start for warm Palm Beach. New England's too much for my poor old bones, can't help my business, I can't help my loans, I've got to get out of this climate lugubrious And bask under southern skies salubrious. I've reached my three score years quite sound But the rigid climate here I've found Chills my bones and freezes my feet, As hug the fire to get enough heat, In this zero weather and ice and snow And winter winds that blow and blow. I've got my ticket, I'm going tomorrow I don't give hoot that had to borrow. In sight of week I'll have sun tan And perhaps will wield palm leaf fan What of it?

New York Jan A. UP)-In many respects. the close of 1888 finds the cotton textile industry in q much improved position com pared to the .disheartening picture presented at the beginning of the year. Early in the spring the eco homie and credit position of the industry was most discouraging. Employment was at depression level. The wage situation was un- satisfactory both to the mills and to employees. Destructive competi- tive influences had demoraliZed the price structure.
