A large crowd witnessed tho balloon
ascension made by Mr. Frank Miller,
the noted aeronaut, yesterday. Tho
day was almost calm, a slight wind bear
ing it off to the westward only a short
distance.
Mr. Miller called at The Chronicle
omco this morning and related some in
teresting focta concerning tho ascension.
' He said lie roso 5,000 feet, and at the
time of jumping with his parachute
was immediately over the Columbia
river. When he had reached the high
est point he could eaelly see the north
side of the Klickitat hills. These are
are about 2,300 feet in height. When
on a level with their tops lie encount
ered a current of very cold air, which
the balloon revealed in going through it
by veering and jumping unsteadily.
Above this the air was quite warm and
at the point of casting loose a perfect
calm. When he came to earth again,
he alighted In the top of a tall poplar on
Liberty street, between Second and
Third, and from there adopted the sim
ian style ofgrcaching the ground. Con
siderable difficulty was experienced in
recovering the parachute, as it got tan
gled with the electric wires. The bal
loon came down between the Umatilla
house and the river.
"The only danger in parachute jump
ing," said Prof. Miiler, "is when the rat
lines get tangled, and I have frequently
climbed up into them to untangle them
before cutting loose from the balloon.
The parachute is sure to open unless the
rat lineB are tangled in such a manner
as to prevent it. There have been only
two cases where a parachute failed to
open; one in St. Paul, Minn., and one
in Beardstown, '111. The St. Paul bal
loonist had made only two ascensions
before, and was ignorant of the trouble.
When he came down he was driven ten
feet into the earth, and the lines were
found to be tied around the parachute,
preventing its being opened. "The acci
dent at Beardstown, Fourth of July a
year ago, was due to the same cause.
I never cast myself loose from the bal
loon without being Eure that everything
is in perfect working order."
"Have your ever alighted in worse
places than yesterday?"
"I have come down on a church
Bteeple, where ladders were raised to
rescue me, and on steep roofs, under
going various experiences. I have
fallen in every lake and ocean in the
United States, and was once in the
water two hours."
"Where was this?"
"In Lake Superior. I had risen from
Dulutb, and when I came down was two
miles from Bhore. Of course I knew I j
should fall in the lake and had a life
"What Bort of a
straight down?"
"Well, for instance, take The Dalles.
Yestetday as 1 went up the blocks all
closed in upon each other. Soon there
were no streets observable, and when I
jumped, the town looked like a little
daubof conglomerated color, a mere spot
tho surface of the earth."
Mr. Miller spoke of the sensation
when first dropping, the coining up
with a jerk when the parachute was
fully extended, and other interesting
facts. He proposes to go up Saturday
again, if a purse can be raised sufficient
to meet his expenses while staying in
town. As ho puts it, he is putting in
time waiting for the mid-winter fair to
open in San Francisco.
Mr. Miller is accomptined in Tho
Dalles by his wife, who goes as Miss
May Miller, and his business manager,
Mr. Lowis Barnett, a very agreeable
gentleman.
