HER BALLODN EXPERIENCE. A Womsn who has Seared on High Over 150 Times, AjTrip in which she Took Up & Bull dog by the Teeth and was Oap tured by a Bull—Many Thrill Ing Adventures and Mishaps, Philadelphia Times, Mrs, Oarl Meyers, better known as “‘Carlotta,” has made over 150 successfal balloon ascensions, and has had many pecullar experlences. One of the best she tells as follows: ] had aecended from Maesachusetts with the Skylark fally ioflated with hydrogen gas, and with sand ballast to balance it. The wind track made land Ing places scarce and Infrequent along the ground below, and 1 was just golng to throw oat ballast and seek a higher cur- rent which might drift me out that pari of the country, when I spled three bare spota of ground, all In a row, directly be- fore me, with patches of wood between, and In the first I found landing. 1t proved to be a pumpkin field. The Sky- lark swooped down, and with the ald of the wind began dragging’ my llttle net. ting-bordered platform across the field. 1 pressed down the edge of the ring or rim supporting the netting and fished for pumpkins as we slid along. By the time I had caught quite & mess of them the balloon was tired dragging the amccumu- lated load and paused to rest, the wind occaslonally lunging and tugglng it along for a foot or so, 1t was a neat landIng, and I was jast flattorlng myself with the idea of my saving all my ballast and most of my gas besides capturing a load of pumpklins, when over the fence comlng toward me I saw an ugly little bow-legged bull-dog, held In check by a strap which drageed along an ugly little man, Before the dog could get in a word the man opened onme with an overture of blasphemy and vitoperatlons, accusing me of steal- Ing hls pumpkins. 1 proposed to com- promise by paylng for the pumpkins on the spot, and leave them on thespot,too, 1f he would hold the balloon while I let out the gas, Bat no, he wonldn’t agree. The man llberally estimated my plun- der at twenty-five cents per pumpkin, I had ten pumpkine, blg and little, some not even worth ten cents, I thought, but 1 didn’t want to Incense the man fora few cents, so I handed out a dollar to begin with, As the man almost gresped it, the wind got In just ahead and snatch- ed it. The man let go the dog and started for the money, and the dog went for me. Instantly » wicked thought struck me, namely, to flit to fresh fields and pas- ures new. Accordingly I threw out three bags of Massachusetts sand, the Skylark mounted the breeze, and the last I saw of the man he was dancing a jlg and de- clalming in large capltals, heavily punc- » | tuated with gestures, while the bull-dog LGOULD &.CO’ 18 CONDUCTED BY Royal Havana Lottery | (A GOVERNMENT INSTITUTION.)

Now it was plaln sailing once more just above the woode, but as I crossed them and reached the next clearlng the #| Skylark manlfested the same inclinaafon to come down at a depression that a bal- anced ballocn always does when follow- ing the low-lying drift of air flowing up over hills and woods and down into the valleys of clearlngs, just as water would. I aseisted the Skylark toland In the shelter of the high trees, and was just golng to finish the trip by discharging the gas, when the bull dog, who had qui- otly sneaked through the woods, suddenly jumped upon me, and, inserting his noss through the meshes of my hammock net- ting basket, caught hold of my dress. I inatantly broke a pumpkin over bis head, and almost got away, but with the tenac- ity of the bull dog he hung on. Ipicked up another pumpkin and fed it to him raw. It wasa soft-shell pumpkin, and - | ““Hold-fast,” absorbed it mostly through his eyes and esrs. The balloon pulled hard, and ‘‘Hold-fast” was on his last legs. As three pumpkins equal ono dog (troy welght) I threw out another, and up we went, with Holdfast at the helm, I trled to push him off with my foot on hls mouth. Next I trled whipplng him off by dropping the skylark down on the woods under us, and a most unmereiful flogging the tree tops gave himas we drlfted across, but even this dose did not relleve hls case of lockjaw. Justthen I felta little bottle In my handkerchlef pocket. Ammonia it was, carried for removing possible stalns of sulphurlc acid used about my hydrogen-gas manufactory, I had the utmost confidence in its ability to remove things, and I at once administered an adult doseto Holdfast’s nose. It fitted his locked jaw like a key. He gave sort ~[of & cringe, a smothered snort, as If he were trying to say eureka with his mouth shut, and then, feellng something solid under him, he let go. What he felt un- der him was the top of a tall tree, and I left him thera to climb down. I heard that a fancled resemblance exlsted be tween a dog and an alligator, from the fact that neither could cllmb a tree, Holdfast was not that kind of a dog, Relleved of the dog up went the bal- loon, and pretty soon I had got above the third clearing I had noticed. It was & pasture, and there were cows In a dls- tant part of It. It seemed a good place to land, and, dropping the Skylark at the edge of the clearing, [ flung my anchor adroitly Inte the roots of a stump, The weight of the anchor and rope relieved the balloon somewhat, and in & moment the Skylark posed at the end of 200 feet of light rope. The previous strong breeze had lessened, but under its {nfluence the balloon was next pushed near the ground, and bobbed up and down so uneatily that I began hauling in my cable to give less play and get move under the tall forest trees. I wanted to make solld connec- tions with earth before lettlng out gas to such a degree that the wind could hollow the balloon underneath and pull harder. It was also a princlple with me never to exhaust gas till perfectly certain of not wanting to go up again, Thus my line extended earthward on a slant, llke kite strlug, and I was pulllng it in from the kite end, when I became conscious of an uproar in the alr. Looking around in the dlrection of the cows I saw approach- iog me one member of the group, and I concluded from the sttitude and antics that it was a bull and furthermore that he owned the pasture. He approached with bis head down and his horns low- ered In & way alarmingly suggestivo of scooping me up, all the while roaring and planging like & locomotive off the track. I stopped hauling In rope and got pumpkin ready to offer my coming guest, wor 1 thought he might prefer » pumpkia to me. I threw one down and It went to smash right where he couid smell It most canily, and italoss lifted me gently out of nis reach, He snuffed at it suspicionsly, sawed the fragments cont, wptuously, stabbed spltefally at the biggest piece and tried to get it on his horn, Was Jjastabove him now, and I concluded that If gotmad g0 eastly atmy huumubla‘ overtures, and really preferred one on his horn rather than Internally, I'd give it to him there, I dropped one "0 acourately 1t stuck fast quite & little while, making him look comlcally valn, and really a mad bull, with a big golden pumpkin on his horn, looks very fanny to one up in a balloon. After wrestling with a pump- kin for a while, he managed to fire it up at me, and paused In an attitude signify- ing: “That's a sample of the work done here!” With all his pride I was atill a Tittlo too upplsh for him. He haa the range, bat not the elevatlon, and he realized it, but flattered himself that he had got me treed and could walt for me to come down, As I contlnued to dls- daln his Intimate acquaintance he began sparring with my anchor rope, and pre- sently got It tangled with his horns, Here was a predicament. Of all the aerlal navigation schemes for balloon propulsion, no one ever thought of ball. power till I discovered it—or it dlscov- ered me! Pretly soon thebows and gen- teel capers of my captor dislodged the anchor, and we paraded the areus, mak- Ing quite an Imposing procession. The cows wildly fled at our approach, How It might have ended I know not, but old bovine stumbled and trlpped so repeatedly from my anchor continually oatching as it dragged bohind him, that his style of lccomotion became worse than stutterlng, and he finally became so entangled, lassoed and wound up in my 200 feet of rope, that at last he tumbled helplessly and falled to rise agaln. After capturing my anchor 1 cat off all the rope old bovine could spare, and with the deposit of one more pumpkin I pald my way to more hospltable regions above. Half an hour later I landed in a ‘“‘sunset calm” at a comfortable farm house, where 1 was cordially asslsted and entertalned. Here I left my remainlng pumpkins, with the generous recommendation that they were ‘‘an extremely valuable and high-priced varlety. of my own importa- tation and ralsing, good for man or beast, high climbers without polling, and great travellers,” I now cannot eat pumpkin ple without tears. Semi-Annual Gathering of the Jew- elry Sellers and Buyers, Now York Telegram. The customsary seml-annual gathering of the salesmen of the Providence and Attleboro jewelry manufactories and the jobbers 1in jewelry from all over the country is in progress at the Astor house to-day, and the clerks and other employes of that hostelry are up to thelr ear In business. Every apartment In the house Is occupled, and hurrying and scurrylog through the rooms and halls may be seen the sharp sellers and buyers, black sample cases in hand, and ready for a trade wherever buyer or teller may meet. There are 135 salesmen, repre- senting as many manufactories, and the Jjobbers are very numerous and continue to arrlve. The business will contlnue for the remainder of this month, and the goods sold will go on the retail market about September 1. From leading salesmen it was ascer- talned that prices are about ten per cent lower than last year, and trade thus far is rather slow, jobbera belng cautious and glving comparatively small orders. Goods are s0ld on one month and four months’ credit. The demand is for the cheaper grades of jewelry malnly, In ear-rings the new styles are emall and contaln all kinds of stones, the demand for imitatlon dlamonds not being so great as formerly. Some new fastenings have been Intro- duced in cuff buttons, and some very pretty designus for ladles’ brooches and sleve buttons are shown, In other artl- cles there s not much change in atyle from last year. Owing to the depression generally in business of all kinds the manufactories produced light stocks for this season’s trade, and the jobbera also having small supplies Jeads to the bellef that a largs [ N.

I. Oase, the owners of the famous trotters Jay-Eye.see and Phallas, has Invarlably greeted Mrs Case upon the occaslon of every notable feat by elther of these two magnificent creatures. Mr, and Mrs, Oase always at- tend the races together, and when Jay- Eye-see robbed Maud 8. of the honor of having the fastest trotting recurd by cut- ting her 2,10} down to 2.10, Mr. Case, feeling that such commonplace express- fons of emotlon as throwlng up his hat or shoutlng “‘hooray” were altogether un- worthy of the occaslen, rushed straight up to the grand stand and kissed Mes, Oase. Then, when the mighty Phallas, by trotting a fourth heat In 2 13}, de- lighted the impatlont hearts of sil the progressive turfmen who had been wait- ing for years In expectation of some stall fon that sould beat Smuggler's record of 2,15}, Mr. Case again signalived the event In the same manner; and thus the custom to klssing Mrs, Case was fairly established and aiways afterward was ob- served as the importance of the occasion demanded. Last week, however, when Phallas added immensely tohia laurels by defeating the record stallion,Maxey Cobb, we scanned the varlous journals to see If Mr, C'ase had celebrated hishorse's victory with the same osculatory memortal as be- fore, and had begun to think that Mr. Oase had rather lost his Interest In trot- ting when we read the followlng supple- mentary comments taken from the col- amns of the sportsman: *‘Mr. Cohnfeld was satisfied, but de- pressed, and Murphy sald: ‘It’s no good. COobb can never beat P’hallas when he Is right. Bat he had no speed to-day. I found out I couldn't win over there’'— polnting to the placa where Cobb stopped. “."Bill Crawford: ‘Phallas is a great horse, but he sarprised me, I dldn't ex- pect him to win In stralght.’ “‘Mr. Case said but little and kissed Mrs. Case.” Evidently Mr. Case thinks Phallas as good a horse as ever, And so does every- body else, and If he does not beat the stalllon record this year we are very much mistaken. ——— F.

Besides the large pork and beef house erected for Hammond & Co., other dealers have com- menced the erection of similar institutions and still others are contemplated for the near future. fSeveral dwellings have been built and twenty or thirty are now building. Employment is now furnished to about one hundred and fifty families, and conservative estimates place the figure at eight hundred to one thousand families that will find em- ploynient there a year hence. This offers great inducements to Jaboring men to secure homes now while they are cheap. Specula- tors will also find it to their advantage to buy at present prices. The company Liave made no change from the original prices, but some parties who first purchased lots have resold them at splendid profits, in some cases at double the purchase price. If in so shorta ime handsome profits are made, what will be the result when evevything is fully devel- oped ? In the few other cities that are favor- ed with a first class cattle market, fortunes have been made by investors in real estate, and the same is certain to follow in South Omaha. 'While the whole city of Omaha will be greatly benefitted by the growth and development of the cattle interest, South Omaha lots will enhance in value more ra- pidly than any other by reason of the prox imity to the works.
