balloon was sent up trout Paris on the
morning of the 1 2th. The w ind carried
it in u northerly direction with such
rapidity thnt it soon passed over the
North sea. without the occupants of the
car ktiowiug where they were. When,
howevcr.they found themselves danger
ously close to the sea they sent off a
carrier pigeon with it message that they
thought themselves lust, at tlir same
time throwing out ballast Ultimately
the balloon reached Norway, and when

on a snow-covtviti Djouutiun, as best
they could aud without even knowing
in what country they were, there being
no habitations near. For nineUeu
hours they wandered about in thesuuwlj
in light boots which laUer ha4 to be
cut off, so saturated bad they became.
In the meantime the balloon was dis
covered by sonic of the natives. The
aeronauts were not lo be seen, but the
remains of meat, kerad, aud wine in
the car showed plainly enough that it

iu the day the terrified woman found'
herself nowhere in sight of hor valiant
piotcetors nod the snow pelting down.
Iu this .situation ceti her horse fail
ed her, and the unhappy lady wns com
pelled to dismount nnd w ander on alone.
When darkness set in she was overcome
with exhaustion aud was forced to seek
shelter in a hollow cedar. Sitting in
this all night, the held her horse aud
waited the morning. IV'ith daylight
she was up. and finding her horse abso
lutely useless, abandoned bint and hur
ried forward on foot. Almost t'end
w ith hunger and distress, she staggered
on if search of bouse. On the verge
of a frightful declivity, where the path
ran, she almost fainted with joy at the
sound of a human voice as she suppos
ed, nnd darting around a rock w hence
it seemed to come, she came full upon
a gritzly bear. Happiiy the beast wax
as much surprised as the lady, and she,
ii her agitation, starting back, lost lor
fooling, and rolled down the declivity.
Rruiscd, bleeding, and almost life
less, she recovered presently, and found
herself in a dark and gloomy gulch,
seemingly impenetrable to the outside
world. After frantic efforts she at last
found a bear-trail leading to the valley
beneath by a way not less precipitous
than that whfch cGe had just descend
ed so unceremoniously. The situation
was desperate, and she was forced to
attempt the hazardous path, Krtnerv
ed by her peril and continued exertions
she missed her footing ami again fell
to the foot of the rocks over 40 feet
and lay, she docs not know how long,
stunned and bleeding, where she fell.
Recovering consciousness, she again
started resolutely forward, her clothes
frozen stiffly to her limbs, and weak
from twenty-four hours' fasting. Wan
dering on, she ngaiu rticlm l A strep
declivity, and, daringly mounting n
fallen tree evhich leaned over the steep
bnuk, she slid d'nn more than fifty
feet nnd found herself in the valley,
Here, however, her strength utterly
gave out. and had it uot been for the

Mr. Ilcliwui had worked hard all

up the passage through the door, and
be immediitely aroused his wife, broke
open a window and pulled her And two
of his children out, none of them having
anything on but tweir night clothes,
and even iliosfi being neatly burned
off. His other boy came to the win

in pulling him nut by the shirt, when
the garment, which was badly burned,
parted, and the boy fell back into the
flames. Th cries of the little sufferers
were heard for some time afterwards,
but they could not be saved.
Mr. Helpman then conveyed his wife
and rescued children up into the
barn, mi l rods a horse one mile to his
