But those who invade Vile air with balloons can safeguard them nelves to no appreciable extent. Peril at tends the rise from earth, aud once above the housetops tho aerial craft is at the mercy of every breeze that blows. Danger likewise surrounds the descent, 4nd while accidents are not so numerous as the con ditions would seem to demand, still it is fair statement to characterize as lucky any one who has passed twenty-four hours above the clouds, and then reached terra Arms, in surety. It was only the other day that the 60,000 Inhabitants of Croydon, an English city not nir rrom London, were thrown into paroxysm of excitement and apprehension regartiing the rate of Professor Hlggins. local aeronaut. He had prepared a balloon or a capacity of 1 .,000 cubio feet with parachute and trapeze attachment. When he gave the signal the ropes were loosed. ana trie air ship sailed away in the direc tion of Norwood. Upon reaching an alti tude of 4,0u0 feet the parachute became de tached from the net of the balloon, which shot up at a great rate and rapidly disap peared in tne clouds. This was an emer gency not included in the programme, for ESCAPE OF THE PARACniTTK- niggins had Intended to descend within the limits of the field from which he made his departure. Tho loss of the parachute, and tho perilous predicament in which the voyager was thereby placed, no car being attached to the balloon, naturally aroused the gravest fear4in the minds of his friends and relatives. The last glimpse caught of him on the edge of the sky showed that he was hanging by one hand to a pendant ropeanu clutching at the mouth of the air shintwith the other. No one for a mo ment entertained anv hone of hia ssumna and the general relief was accompanied with intense astonishment when late at night a telegram from Tunbrldge an nounced that he had landed a&felv. On his return the professor naturally had a remarkable story to telL He reached such an altitude that icicles formed on his hair and mustache. The slow escape of gas from the balloon Anally changed its tjp- wara to a downward progress, and the re turn to the lower and warmer strata of the air revived the unwilling traveler auffl ciently so that he was enabled to make i struggle for life. He lowered himself to the end of his little trapeze rope, and so hung until his feet touched the earth. He coum not, however, get free until the bal THE PLTOOK T5TO LUCK MICHTOAW. loon had dragged him ten yards along the gnraua ana reoounaea sixty Teet Into the air.

All of them accepted, and stood within the ropes that kept baok the crowd ot spectators while the enormous balloon was filled with gas. When the Inflation jiad been completed the professor, doubting the buoyancy of his air ship, announced that he could take but one companion on Ijie voyage. Each of the reporters lnsiated in being that one, but the controversy sded with an agreement to match pen dee. The contest, by the chances of the oin, aoon narrowed down to two men rlmwood, of The Evening Journal, and laitlaud, of The Courier, a sheet long ince gathered to ita fathers. Maitland aad In his pocket an envelope containing his week's salary. He pulled it out and .cried: . I ''Grimwood, 111 give you that to let me go up." "No," was the response. "We'll stick to the agreement. The one who wins shall make the trip." ' The two bright young men didn't know it, but when they laid their pennies on the board at their feet they were casting lots for life or death. Grimwood gained the coveted price the seat In the basket of the balloon by the side of the now impatient aeronaut. He jumped aboard, the order was given to cast off the ropes and the un chained monster bounded upward with a mighty rush and soared northward like a thing of life. What followed? Anticipa tion, doubt, anxiety, despair, the recovery of a body. As conjectured, the balloon drifted out over Lake Michigan during a storm, collapsed and fell into the waves. Grirawood's corpse was found on the beach np in the wilds of Michigan, and lumber- A MODERN BALLOON WITH PARACHUTE. men discovered fragments of the great air ship in the depths of a pine forest.

Who can tell The principle of atmospheric buoyancy was discovered by noger liacon in the Thirteenth centurv. How vague was his groping after the truth may be shown by the fact that he termed the principle "ethereal air or liquid fire.' and wrote: "There tn-iy be made some fly ing instrument, so mat a man sitting in the middle of the instrument and turning some mechanism may put in motion some artificial wings which may beat the air like a Hying bird." It was not until 17x2, however, that this obscure suggestion of the medieval monk took form as an inven tion. In that year the Montgolflers wale the first balloon. The improvements since their day have been chiefly in the way of eiaooratiou. The Idea Itself has formed the basis for no such progress as that char acterizing the history of steam and elec tricity.

His success opens the question of the possibility of the grafting of the brtins of human beings. Dr. Thompson cn t ftpen the skulls of two large dogs and in rchanged pieces of the brain tissue of each. On the third day both dogs were ki .led and the transplanted pieces of brain tit sue looked normal, and in each case w re firmly knitted together. The next experiment was with a cat and a dog. Three days later the cat was killed. The transplanted dog's brain was found where it had been placed, firmly adherring to the ca'.'s brain. Gave a Dog Some Cat's Brain. He next procured a mongrel dog, opened hi i sk ull over the left lobe of the brain, and through the opening removed a small portion of brain tissue. A cat was sim ultaneously operated upon in the same m inner and the brain tissue of the est and dog were Interchanged. The open ings were closed and treated. The dog made a good recovery from the operation, al hough he was feeble for a few days. St bsequently he appeared normal in every way except the loss of vision. He was killed at the end of seven weeks, when the piece of transplanted cat's brain was fo and firmly adhered to the dog's brain, with the pia mater intact. THE STRIKE AT EAST ST. LOUIS.
