Whoever tan answer this question will satisfy anxious relatives and friends of the venturesome aerial tourists, as well as check tho hund reds of inquiries that are pouring in on the local newspaper offices, and satisfy the crowds that assemble about the bulletins eager for some definite information. When the hour of 2:.".u uYlork was reached this afternoon it marked ex actly 4S hours since the balloon he gun its flight from Ibis city amid the plaudits ami well wishing of thousands of spectators. Ihning lb.it time there have been rumors of the big gas hag being sighted in the region of Siher Lake, hut these proved absolutely groundless, having been started right in this city. The only aut hen tic in format inn received here regarding tho course of the bal loon came from Peel ami (Hide last Saturday evening about .i::iO o'clock. It was sighted at an estimated alti tude of iHHiu feet traveling north easterly toward the llobcuiia district Hoheinlu. on a bee-line, is about SO miles from Koseburg and is situ ated In t be t'alapooia mountains, a spur of the Cascade. Whether the balloon crossed the Cascades is a matter of mere guesswork. If the aerlallsts succeeded in crossing these mountains they have failed tn make their appearance in a locality where information can be sent out at once I In I loo u Not Sighted. At 2:1.1 o'clock this afternoon the Iteview received the following dis patch from the 1'niied Press bureau in Portland: "POItTI.ANI). or .

Hell this afternoon received a niessaire f nun Walla Walla, saying the balloon bail Hot been sighted there. .May Not Have Crowed Cam ade. I. J. Wright, u bo came in from Clide this afternoon, thinks the bal loon did not pass the summit of the Cascade ratine. From his place on the side of Mt. Scott be saw the bal loon moving east or northeast from tilide, and its elevation then was ap parently lower than the mountain tops. P. K. Shields, w bo is a Mo familiar with that region, shares the opinion that the balloon has failed to cross the mountains. Ham Plenty of Gma. The balloon was filled with uuffi rlent gas to keep it In the air for one to two weeks, under ordinary conditions. Kxtremely cold weather, such as would be encountered at a height necessary to sail over the Cas cades, has a deteriorating effect on gas, and this may have prevented the voyagers from reaching Central Oregon. They took with them from here enough provisions to last three days. ICevelry Has Had Angle. Hoseburg's fifth annual carnival passed into history Saturday night, with all the usual indescribable noiB es. From S o'clock until nearly mid night the streets presented a scene of the wildest hilarity. In which both voiffig and old participated. For the first time, the joyousuess of the oc casion was marred by the inexcusable practice of smearing grease paint and ink on persons wearing good clothes. (Continued on page ).
