The balloon, Boston, which made its initial ascent here, landed safely on a mountain between Putney, Vt., and Dummerston, Vt., near he Vermont Hampshire boundary line. Charles J. Glidden, of Boston, the owner of the balloon, and Leo Stevens, the New York aeronaut, who was a pas senger, had a very exciting trip. In addition to being the target for rifle bullets during the flight, Mr. Glid den and Mr. Stevens landed In a pasture where a young bull was con fined. The animal charged the aero nauts after they had stepped from the basket, and they were forced to run at top speed and hurriedly scramble over a fence. Although a landing was made at about 7 o'clock It was near midnight before they reached a farm house, where they spent the remainder of , the night.

This was the statement today of Representative Lloyd, of Missouri, chairman of the democratic congres sional campaign committee. He an nounces tuat the committee's cam paign book will be out by July 1 and will be immediately mailed to all parts of the country.

Bull Singing wind blew in puffs, at a rate varying from tewnty-five to forty miles an hour. The puffs of wind and the j changing directions of the various air currents encountered frequently caused the basket to revolve. I The highest elevation reached was 6,100 feet. While passing over the northeast corner of Brattleboro, Vt., the gas bag was struck by two rifle bullets.', - The bullets glanced off, however, without penetrating the silk covering but the course of the bullets was In dicated plainly by two dark-colored streaks across the covering. The landing . was made In a pasture on top of a mountain two thousand feet high and the descent was from an elevation of more than 2,000 feet. Although a twenty-five-mile breeze was blowing, the aeronauts came to the ground without difficulty. The place where the balloon came down is about fifty miles in an air line from this city. committee feels the need and ad vantage of beginning as soon as pos sible the work of molding the senti ment of the voters. "I feel pleased and satisfied to day," said Mr. Lloyd. "You will find that this is going to be a year when party affiliations will amount to less than they have ever done before. It is for this reason that the demo cratic party finds itself in a better position than has ever been the case before."

Hot Springs, Va will be next only to Oyster Bay this summer as political capital, for it Is to Hot Springs thut Secretaiy Taft now expects to go. From there he will direct his cam palgn and make such trips as will be necessary. He does not expect, how' ever, to do much traveling.

Other Political Leaders Will Re There and Party Wiseacres Have It That National Chairmanship, Which Frank Hitchcock Refused .1 Take, Will Be Principal Topic of RooscTelt-Taft-Wright Confer ence. (By Leased Wire to The Times) New York, June 22. While Presi dent Roosevelt was understood to have expressed his Intention of avoiding politics entirely during the summer stay at Sagamore Hill, Oyster Bay, po litical wiseacres now believe the meet ing between Sect. Taft and Gen. Luke E. Wright, who is to succeed Mr. Taft in the war portfolio, and the president next week will figure in the selection of a national chairman to manage the Ta.ft campaign, r The failure of the Committee to reach a decision at the conference in Cincin nati, and the refusal of Frank H. Hitchcock to consider an offer of the post, have, the politicians believe, forced the president to step in and set tle a difficulty which might have an adverse effect on the canvass should the disagreement be prolonged. Report had it that when Mr. Roose velt learned of Mr. Hitchcock's deter mination not to allow his name to be used in connection with the chairman ship, he promptly suggested the name of Mr. Loeb, and it was even rumored that the president's secretary would accept. This, however, could not be confirmed, as Mr. Loeb returned evas ive answers to all questions. : As President Roosevelt is anxious to see Secretary Taft chosen his successor, it is considered natural that he should recant on his first plan, in view of the failure of the committee to get to gether. If Mr. Roosevelt expresses a prefer ence for anyone to head the campaign, that man will undoubtedly be named. The president and Mr. Wright, of course, will discuss the future con duct of the office of the secretary of war. : Twelve Sunday Drownings in Waters About New York (Continued from First Page.) swimming back toward the shore. Clarkson, McNally and Coffey were rushed to the hospital on Blackwell's Island. - Summer Days at Sagamore Hill (Continued from First Page.) grocery store in running order, Secre tary Loeb and his corps of assistants started in earnest today to attend to the affairs of the United States gov ernment. .Early today Mr. Loeb rode out to Sagamore Hill and for a couple of hours he and President Roosevelt were busy over a large heap of corre spondence In a shady corner of the ve randa. When the secretary returned to the executive offices he hung up his coat and went to work, remarking that, after all, It looked like a busy summer. One of the first acts of Mr. Loeb was to send a telegram to Secretary Taft inviting him to come to Sagamore Hill and spend a week. There are many Important matters concerning the cam. palgn which the president wants to dis cuss with his possible successor. The fact that the president had waited only a little over a day since coming here to send for Secretary Taft seemed to dispose of the theory that Mr. Roosevelt was to take little part in the coming campaign. Indications are plenty that Oyster Bay will play an important part In the election. A significant move Is the installing of Secretary Loeb and his family at the Seawanhaka Yacht club on Centre Is land. Mr. Loeb last year took up quarters In the Townsend house, about a quar ter of n mile from Sagamore Hill, and he drove to and from the village sev eral times a day. He was easily ac ceshible to visitors, whatever their er rands, at all times of the day and night, All that has been changed this year, and it looked today as .

How to Use It. Telephoning is such a simple matter that a talk on this subject seems almost unnecessary. What we say, however, is intended to help yound benefit us. There is a right way and a wrong way to use the telephone. We are daily Impressed with the fact that a great many people, uninten tionally, perhaps, have adopted the wrong method, thereby causing them selves constant Irritation. When you use the telephone your mouth should be directly in front of the mouthpiece and the receiver should be held lightly hut firmly against the ear. You should talk directly into of voice. Very often people stand their attention to persons about them. Naturally, under such conditions, the one to whom they are talking cannot hear distinctly and perhaps finds fault with the service. Then, too, some of us have a habit when the called party does not answer promptly. The hook should be moved slowly up and down two or three times to attract the attention of the operator. If violent methods are erly. All the operator can do, you know, is to make the connection and ring the bell; she cannot make people answer their telephones In a harry. There are directions In the telephone directory covering every fea ture of the matter. If you will take and follow them, it will help you and to us.
