Where, oh where, Is that Walloon

hint Saturday afternoon, bearing
lilot Kdward 1'nger, l.iwher Page,
Karl Stewart and it. II. Leadbetter?
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 . May jtf In an
effort to locate the Koseburg balloon
Silver hake. Head. I'i ineville. Sperry.
Paisley. I.akevjew and Hums were
communicated with today, but no
definite information was secured. It
is believed the balloon alighted in
some isolated spot if It crossed the
Cascades, tint cannot reach tele
phonic com mimical ion."
Weather Observer Win. 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.
