The mira­ cle was there in the form of a clump o f trees into which the balloon fell. The aeronauts, after a fall of near­ ly six miles out of the clouds, es­ caped with a few cuts and bruises. — Chicago Record-Herald. Mioh*lang*lo’* Vow. The story is told, but with no solid foundation, that Raphael had undertaken to decorate the walls of the mansion of Cardinal Farnesina, on the banks of the Tiber, on the condition that no one should see his work until it was completed. Michelangelo took an oath that he would stop this work. Finding his opportunity when the artist came late to work and disguised as a seller qf cakes and wine, he dis­ tracted the attention of those round the scaffold that was prepared by offering to them his wares, and, as­ cending, he drew upon the wall a gigantic head of Jupiter and hur­ riedly left the building, his vow thus accomplished.
