Luckily Far the Aviator, He Was Out
of Range of the Drops.
It will be easily understood, writes
C. O. Grey In "Tales of the Flying
Service," that before a bullet that has
been shot straight upward begins to
rail there must be s point where it
stands dead still and that for the last
part of Its upward flight It travels very
slowly. One officer of my acquaintance
tola me, after some months of war.
that bis most curious experience was
when once, and once only, he dlacov
ercd the exact extreme range point
He was flying along quite peacefully
on a bright, sunny morning at an alti
tude of o little over 8,000 feet, without
worrying about anything, when sud
denly lie saw something bright dart
past the side of the machine. He be
gan to look about him and saw.
shade below him and a trifle to' one
side, a whole stream of little bright
tnings glittering In the suu.
Then be realized that be had Just
struck a level that happened to be the
extreme vertical range of a machine
gun that was making uncommonly
good shooting. Other bullets from
rifles and other machine guns also
flashed Into view as he flew along, and
when bis eyes csught tbe right focus ho
could follow tbe slow, topmost part of
their movement for a considerable dls
tance. "It looked," be said, "just as If
It were raining upward," and tbe phe
nomenon was so novel tbst be quite
forgot for a time that the "raindrops'
Indicated that he was unpopular with
some one below.
Bomb Dropping Balloons.
The first bomb dropping balloons
were bumble enough and equally fu
tile. Ualloons bad been used In war as
early ns tbe siege of Maubeuge by the
Austrian! for observation purposes.
Tbe first talk of bomb dropping was In
1812, when tbe Russians were said to
hare a huge balloon for that purpose,
but nothing was done with It. In 1847.
however, tbe Austrians, when attack
ing Venice, sent up paper fire balloons,
which were to drop bombs Into tbe
town. But (hey Torgot to allow for con
trary nlr currents. The balloons got
Into such a current and, drifting back
over the Austrian lines, bombed them
lustead of Venice.
Webster's Portrait
Daniel Webster once sat for bis por
trait to O. P. llealy. and tbe senator's
remark when he surveyed tbe complet
ed picture became one of tbe artist's
favorite anecdotes In after years. "I
think," said Webster as be looked at
his counterfeit presentment, "that Is a
face I have often shaved."
llealy found Andrew Jackson a dis
agreeable and unwilling "subject," and
he compensated himself by painting
Old Hickory with absolute fidelity to
nature, not glossing a single defect
Tho portrait gives Jackson an ugly.
