That is where they landed, less than I"' miles east of this city. :: boilis alter their departure. That the voyagers were pretty badly rallied" Is shown by their widely varying estimates of the altitude at-1 tained, being anywhere from 6000 to 1 1 2. nun feel, the former figure ap proximating the general height of the Cascade range, while the latter is far above lis highest peak. Ob servations of P. .1. Wright, of (ilide. ,1ml others who saw tho balloon dur ing in Night, indicate that the former liglll'e was probably never exceeded. Two representatives of I he Re view met the returning voyagers at (Hide; and very quickly learned that i lie trip bad been almost without ill cidoui. It was also very soon nppur ent that there r had been little real effort at Irving to cross the moun tains. Pilot I'nger remarked that alter, passing beyond the border of the limberlund region of the lower Cascades lie saw a bare spot that looked to be "about the size of a poslage stamp" and he at once de cided to "take a chance" on making a landing. The gas valve was soon pulled open so wide that the balloon dropped al such great speed that aiid w;ts thrown overboard to check it. Then they were going so fast i hat of the passengers remarked thai the sand Instead of dropping below the balloon apparently shot up past it. The speed slackened as tbev neaicd the ground and the land ing was made in the clearing without anv difficulty. This landing wns ef fected at il:3u on Saturday evening, only hours after their departure from i li is city. An attempt to land .a llltle earlier was unsuccessful, the anchor falling to hold. Hefore landing, the party had seen tlie cabin of W. R. Illlck. a home steader, and Ibey went there the next morning.

It is also announced here that all bridge work on I he line from Ku gene is to start immedialely.

The results of the studies of steril ity, on fecundity, and on vitality all Indicate that the increase of the mixed blood Indians is much greater than that of the full-blood Indiana, and that unless the tendencies now at work undergo a decided change tne ruil-mooda are destined to form a decreasing proportion of Ihe total Indian population and ultimately to disappear altogether.
