DEATH HEAR VHHI RESCUED Lost to the World 29' Days In All- Wandered Four Days In the Woods With Nothing to Eeat Except the Pigeoni They Had With Them. Mattlce, Ont. After being lost to the world for 29 days, four of which were .spent wandering In the woodsM ihn tJuitj navv balloonist? TJeuts inv -- - . v Farrel!, Hinton and Kloor, arrived here. Lieut. Farrell told the following story of their adventures:' Lieut. Farrell's story, of the flight and wanderings of the trio begins with flip -morn-ins: hours in'ltockawav naval air station, on December 13 and goes on through theightf the landing, and up to the meeting with the Indian at Moose Factory who saved their lives. t "It was just , an ordinary balloon hop," Farrell began.- "It was for train ing. Hinton told me after we left that the gas In the balloon was ten days old, stale and impure. k J'Hinton calledjme up at about twen ty minutes to '1-1 (December 13) and told me I could come on flight if I wanted to. No special " orders are needed. We just got permission from Commander Cummings Of the post and Executive Officer Douglas. "I am, senior officer of the three, but Kloor was- in command of the flight, as he Is a balloon officer and I am a gunnery officer. I have been in aviation for three years and have' flrvn In ovprv lHnil rvf nrnratt Wo left at 1 p. m. Left With Four Pigeons,- "We had four pigeons ; we let the first one go with a message for the Brooklyn navy yard. . r "Hinton and Kloor ' had heavy un derwear and uniforms under their fly ing suits,- I had only the underwear and the flying suit. I had a grip with my uniform and some other things in It. We had eight sandwiches and two thermos bottles of hot coffee. None of the underwear was electrically heated., . 1 "We -expected to land next morn ing In upper New York state. "We had no maps or charts except a railroad map of the Canadian Quebec Central, line, which I bougtit We had three chances to land before we did. We did stop once at Wells, N. Y.v . "We made fast to a tree near a house. A man came along and we asked him where we were. He told us, but he could not say what big town we were near. v Kloor Game to Go On. "We cast loose and went up again. It rained and blew during the night. We could have landed at Ottawa at 11 p. m. We saw the lights of a big city. But Kloor is just a kid and he was enthusiastic about a long flight. We all agreed that we ought to do a decent flight. There had been rain from Wells on. - -. ' ; "The wind was .north by westT That night it blew hard and rained. There was no sign of civilization. But we thought it would be all right in the morning; At daylight we saw only for ests. The rain had calmed down. There were low clouds and fog. "The rain stopped at 8 a. m. (De cember 14). '-We ate -'all our food dur-. IngUhe night. We had two packages of cigarettes and one box of matches, but you cannot smoke in a hydrogen balloon. We realized we were in bad that morning." . Explains Flying Technique. Here Farrell paused to give a brief explanation of the technique of bal loon flying. "You have a lot of expendable bal last," he said. "We had twenty-one landbags weighing thirty pounds apiece. At first the balloon rises with all the cargo. Then it begins coming down as the gas deteriorates. When you are down too low you throw out a sandbag and that sends you up again when all the ballast is gone you go up for the last time and have to come down as soon as the gas begins to weaken. "Our twenty-first ba-g went over, that morning. After that we had to throw out equipment to keep up.,. We hauled in the drag rope which is used in -making landings and cut it into sev-' eral pieces. We used each piece as ballast: It was not very long before the last piece went over the side. At 11 a.- m. the" sun came out and heated up the gas In the balloon; that makes the gas expand and sends the balloon up. "We were fighting to keep in the air. All we saw was trees, lakes, and snow, it was about 1:30 pm. that we saw a shack in the woods. At least we thought it was a shack. We vera in doubt about this until we heard a dog barkj "I took bearings with the compass on the shack and the place vvhere the dog barked. We decided to land We were In low clouds about .1,000 feet high. The wind was north by west the sun had- been heating up our bag. and we began to go up. We reached 6,500. feet. - It takes a long time to, go from that heighu ' ? ' - Make a Bad Landing. "The clouds " were below tis and above us. We got down about- two o'clock." It was' a bad landlng'and we were pretty badly shaken up. We were not hurt or thrown out, but, the basket .was . smashed against the ground. . . . . . . "The balloon . caught between the trees. We had taken the pigeons Into the basket to protect them from the landing. Usually they ride in a cage tied outside of the basket. The weath er was clear and nearly freezing. "All three of us stepped out of the basket in our flying clothes. I took the grip. We were, soaking wet. Kloor took the pigeon cage. We started off at a terrific pace to get where the dog barked. We did not stop to in spect the balloon. From the bearings I took in the balloon we figured the dog to be south by east from us. 1 Start on Long Trek. "We started through the forest on that line. ; I carried my grip for one day. We went on until dark and made a fire. I smoked two cigarettes while we rested; so did Kloor. Hin ton did not smoke. v "We did not eat that day; we car ried the pigeons until the next day. There was some snow on the ground, so we got a lot of pine brush to lie on and I picked a lot of rotten wood with my penknife. We had no fire armsonly the knife and the box of matches. "Hinton went on a little to find a. stream. While he was gone he laid off his flying suit to make better head way and he could not find it on his way back. I That night I slept next to Hinton. He was next to the fire. I was on the outside. Kloor lay off to one side and slept. We got on fine together in the forest. Hinton and I didn't sleep. We got up at daylight. They Eat First Pigeon. "We ate a pigeon that, morning, De cember 15. We cleaned a pigeon and cooked it. We divided it in three parts, a, couple of mouthfuls apiece. We drank water' out of moose tracks and holes in the ground. That Is what probably made me sick " the next day. We started off, I carrying my grip. I ' "We came to a creek that day (the Indians call -this stream the Nesco haga). Hinton was leading and kept moving too far to the west. I "I proposed to him to go southeast. In SO minutes we got to the creek, which was not frozen over, so we had to follow the bank. We camped again in good shape. I, for one, was not very hungry, 1ut we were cold when we stopped walking. : "We had made a fire and rested at noon, but we did not eat in order to conserve food. We argued about where we were. I figured it some where in the woods in Canada, but wasn't sure. , p How They Were Garbed. ' "At that time I was still in my flying suit, Hinton in 'uniform and Kloor In uniform and flying suit. We all wore flying boots. My grip kept getting foul of trees, so I v threw it away at ten o'clock, but ook care to put it In a tree. Before that I got my good English shoes out'of the grip and put them on and threw away my flying boots,- which were pretty near gone. 1 did not make more than four miles the first day nor more than sev en or eight the second day. Our night camp was on the creek. We did not eat. During the day we all nibbled a bit of a kind of moss we found grow ing around. " "We were not cheerful. We began to dread that this dog barking prop osition was a kind of phoney. There were so many noises. I figure now It was a wolf barking. We saw a lot of wolf tracks. Youngest Flyer Prays. "Kloor told us he had been praying not out loud, but Just to himself. I'm not much on religion; I didn't pray. No more than I made a propo sition they should dine off me. , "Hinton and I discussed our course while Kloor was. praying. We had to admit we were in a pretty serious jam and feltr-pretty blue. But when we quit we had a hunch that the third day was going to be lucky. "We ate the second pigeon and killed the other one the morning of the third lav December 16. Kloor put jthe dead pigeon in his pocket. We did this tn do away with the cage. : "During the night Hinton "and Kloor got their feet In the fire, now tneir. flying shoes were burned and-they had to throw them away and walk in uni form boots. My shoes were In the best shape. Hikers Growing Weak. VWe were ail growing weak and fell a lot in holes and over trees. Hinton vas very weak. I feit like romitlnj Ulnton was nausea tea. ! his j stomacl : was very; bad, but our heads were a; clear as they are rlht now. .

VY saw so much -. of : the ; same1 sort ; of woods . that r It appeared we were not going anywhere. But we were not going r la circles because v we were steered by the compass zigzagging through i the wood. That counted against us. 1 : ..iv-'': ";- "I began to lag behind pretty twicb and Hinton suggested that I take off my, flying suit I did, and walked In my underclothing the rest of the trip. "Hinton wrapped my suit around him as a sort of blanket.- Just before noon I had a nasty fall over a tree trunk Into a hole three feet deep. I was bruised and scratched but I got up alone. . -j . 1 .! Hunch Fails to Help put "We didn't' eat at noon and made fire , and warmed up and started off again all together. We were pretty blue when we camped the third night. Our hunch about the third heing the lucky day fllvvered. j i "Hinton said, 'Let write some let ters and put them Id our pockets,' but I said, 'No, we'll have plenty of time to do that.' - "Hinton could hardly hold his head up. It. was very cold and it sure was our worst night. We slept again with Hinton near the fire and me on the outside. I had the flying suit on. but It was too cold to lie still, and I would get up often. . j "When I did Hinton did too, and we would both sit near the fire for a while. Kloor slept fine, almost in the I Weight for JXge 'By ALFREDj STODART - (Copyright) - i) Ir think I?know nowtsald Hugh IVsterly, "how a Woman? feels when shh goes to a smart affai In her last season's gown.

' Tea had been served hip the hall of Penton Lodge, a .'great oak-beamed apartment, and most of the house party had gone to dress!?for dinner. Only Hugh was left to finish his tea and his chat with Edith ;Penton, the daughter of the hojufee. , . V The Meadowthorpe Hnt races on the morrow were he occasion of the gathering, and Hugh hap only just arrived. : . Hugh Westerly, who hd until the last few months, ispent snost of his life in Engl and, .was for-four years of age, and the wprst of;it was that s feet in the to pull them fire. He kept getting, h fire and we would have out i "Next morning we kidded the kid that's what we called Kloois-and told him lie had been hogging:- the s fire. Hinton had the matches, biecause he knows how to light a fire. We were careful with the matches. We. would go stiff when It took Hinton two matches to get the fire going. Trio In Bad Shape. "Kloor had lots of pep after his night's sleep and Hinton was in bad shape. I was a bit better off than Hinton, but not much. We started off without food along the ; bank of the creek. I had a hunch that night might have frozen up the creek ind I left them to go down and try It out." The distance covered tnat afternoon was not more than three miles. Next day (Thursday) almost the same story was repeated at nlghtfalj.i! their dis tance from the "hypothetical" village being, still as undetermined as when they made their landing. : Friday proved to be the; lucky day. In the , morning Tom Marks, a Cree Indian trapper, who was inspecting his traps on the outskirts of the set tlement of Moose Factory, an island In the bottom of James bay, noticed tracks which he judged to 1have been made by three white men,' His curi osity getting the better of the native Indian timidity In the presence of the unusual, Marks followed up the tracks until early In the afternoon he came upon the three balloonists. Kloorr Story of Trip. "The first days out were the worst" said Lieutenant Kloor, describing their experiences. "We had, practiced walk ing with snowshoes at Moose Factory while we were there and i thought we were experts with them,! but after go ing a day on the trail; changed our minds. It was quite stormy, too, and the first week we were out we en countered three severe blizzards. J s "On Sunday a week ago it became so bad 'we were compelled to retrace our steps for more thah a mile. We also found that the dogs we had with us were inadequate for the load we were carrying and had to i send back for more, 7 The weather, however, was not very cold. We had lots of moose meat to eat jmd I think j we are all feeling fine." ; "What , scientific values to1 be de rived from your trip?" was asked.- The main scientific! fact demon strated," replied Kloor, is that a balloon of 35.000 cubic; feet capacity can remain in the air for more than twelve hours. We were j ; in the air foj& twenty-five hours and could have remained there longer, j further than that I think nothing ought to be said until , we report to our superiors." 4 Dogs Hail the Arrival. Kloor, a blue-eyed, ruddy young fel low who, looked to be in the pink of condition, was the first jto arrive. He came whirling around the bend of the MIssanaibi nto the town, riding on the dog slea, vith Sam Salnsbury, Toronto explore, who had gone to meet him. ! '. The howling of huskies tethered be fore Indian huts here was the first warning of the party's approach. A moment later Kloor's sled came over the snow. He was bundled to fhe eyes in the garb of I the country mackinaw, moccasins: wool cap and muffler and no one recognized him until he had slid stiffly! from his sled and introduced himself f "I feel fine. We're all all right All I ask is that I get to a fire,' he said. he was beginning t be aAare of that fact : ' '.... In his heart, however, Hugh knew well enough that It was tt t the differ ence between English afd American manners which caused hls sudden, rather unpleasant Jonsclosness of his age. The rteal' reason wa Edith Pen ton herself, the f daugper of his father's old friend Ro$r Penton Edith with her splendid 4routhf ulness and ripening womanhoo of twenty four. '. .

Trivial Accident Brings, Disaster. The gypsy moth has caused a great deal of ' trouble in this country, and much money and energy! have been spent in the effort to xterminjite it The trouble started when a ; French naturalist named Trouvelot, residing In the town of Maiden, Mass., left a paper box containing gypsy moth eggs on a window ledge and it blew off. That was in the 'early eighties, and he was 'making experiments with va rious kinds of caterpillars as silk fplnnera. Once more, however, the "feel" of the good horse betwen his 'knees tave him confidence. ;: Hugh was glad o acct a hint from old Watson, Pen tin's hejid groom. "'E's a proud loss, ss" said Wat son, "and you can!t keepu'lm back very long. If 'e once (gets discouraged, it will be hall hoff jor todly, sir." There were six entrleit for the Chal lenge Cup, and al) of tbim started.

The Meadowthorpe course is a nat ural lone, and the first njtle'of the race was over a literally tnalr hunting country." ' ! " " Hugh had ridden for $?bout half that distance when HaJrvestT made up his mind to try coriciusionsJWlth his rider, and threw up his iiead fc a very deter mined manner, with tp ultimate in tention of boltingjthe course. , Much to his i-egret, tjugh was com pelled to . give hisj mour. a rather vig orous , treatment wif:4 his spurs. Grasping him tightly bf the head, he administered just on,! telling slash with his whip, and thei suddenly Har vester determined to g kindly for the present. The stggleff however, had cost Hugh his place, an he now found himself trailing along f the rear.

Druid and Harvester were now , on equal terms ; and .Stan ley Borden, with a quick glance from the corner of his eye, realized that Hugh was r going to be a formidable competitor, after alL y He took a fresh grasp of his reins as both horses approached the "Liver pool,", and Hugh did his best to steady his own mount i : The two horses went at the big Jump a . guard-rail, a six-foot ditch, and a stiff hedge on the landing side together. As one horse they rose, and, as they landed and raced madly on, a falnt sound as of applause froi the crowd came from the clubhouse, three quarters of a mile away. The race was now on in earnest Bricktop. well in the lead, bega- to set the pace, while Druid and Har vester fought It out together. No doubt Stanley Borden was sur prised to find himself contending with Hugh. Glancing ahead. Hugh saw that they were gaining rapidly on Bricktop. , Slowly the brown drew away from the chestnut, until, as they approached the brook, he was leading by a couple of lengths. Druid went at the water full speed and cleared it splendidly, but for a moment Hugh feared that his mount was going to refuse. Just one little hint with his spurred heel did Hugh give to the chestnut and he flew into the air, landing well In his stride on the other side of the brook. 5 The jumping was over, and the run home, three-quarters of a mile hi length, now lay before them. In one respect, however, Borden had the advantage. He could punish with whip and spur and thus force 's his mount to use all the speed he pos sessed. Hugh could ' only coax the chestnut by appealing to his courage and by an occasional hint from his spur. But as Inch by inch he began to draw up to Druid, and when at last the chestnut's nose was on a line with tho.. breo horde's girth, he felt his "Vdence return to him with a rush, r1 ?e was his own man again. . After inat Hugh had only a rather dim idea of what Was talcing place. But it was not until he had turned and was riding back to the judges' stand that he was assured, by the cheering of the spectators, of his vic tory. It -was Harvester's rac. Surely his self -raised bogy of mid die age had beeu exorcised now for all time; and he hurried his toilet with the eagerness of a boy In his anxiety to see Edith Penton. 1 ' i He found her: in the shadow of the Penton drag, talking to Stanley Bor den, who was still dressed In his rac ing clothes. Borden held out his hand in warm and sincere congratulation. "You rode a wonderful race," ' he said. ' - Edith, too, extended her hand to Hugh. . T j cannot tell you how grateful I am,! she cried. "It was splendid. Just to show you how much I appre ciate your winning for me, I am going to tell you a secret, hours before any one else hears It our secret, Stanley's and mine." Poor old Hugh. i Things began to blur before him again as they did in the finish of the steeplechase. He heard Edith murmur something about the engagement being announced that evening, and somehow he man aged to say what was expected of him: then he made his exit as best he could. 1 Hugh did not stay for. the festivities at Penton Hodge that night, but plead ed an urgent telephone message which compelled him to hurry back to town As he stood before his mirror late that j evening examining ruefully the increasing grayness about his temples he reflected bitterly that the race is not always to the swift nor the victory to the strong. To which wise reflection he added a stern resolution-to ride no more steeplechases. Daddy's Evewtvg I VJ I PNZf GKflHAM BOWER , s V xortuun m muwm ncvwHi umon 7 " : MORE WAVE ADVENTURES.

' No one knows where the seals go In the winter. In Alaska they begin to appear on the islands of St. Paul and St George about the 'end of April or the first of. May, and toward the latter part of August or In the first weeks of September they disappear . as strangely and mysteriously as they came. This is one of Nature's secrets which she has kept roost successfully hid from scientists as well as the pry ing: eyes -of the merely curious and in quisitive. Even In the days, years ago, when tho seals numbered 5,000,000 or more, apparently some signal unknown to man would be given and the, next day the fog-wreathed rocks would be bare, the seals having deserted the islands. With their slipping off into Bering sea. all trace of them was lost until . their return the following spring. Then some morning they, would suddenly rer appear, disporting themselves , in the water or on the shore. . i consent of their mother, Mother Ocean, : were get- ting pretty tired, of them. Mother Ocean was really look Ing after her chil dren though they didn't know It and would have been greatly relieved had they knovvn It But she felt they must see just what they had asked to see and then they would be xeally conterit "Hello, Brownie." ed when the? came back.- 1 They had been taken by a brownie to a city. It was hprrible. Thei-e were pavements and "it was all they could do to get out of the way of people's feet. These people were sv unlike the people at the seashore. They didn't rest but they always kept hurrying and scurrying along. After a bit the brownie led them into a great building and into a dark, terrible thing, the brownie called an elevator. Up they whizzed to a diz zy height and thenthey stopped' with a horrible jolt. The brownie beckoned to them to follow him and he led' them Into a lit tle office where there was a man sit ting at a desk. There were many papers before hiid and he was looking through them. ' j "Hello, Brownie," he said. "Hello," answered the brownie. "I've brought some waves here with me. They were tired of the ocean! They wanted adventures. I've shown them what our great forests were like and what this beautiful city was like. . Now I believe they'd like to settle down to work. They were tired of their mother you've heard of Mother Qcean, haven't you?" The old man nodded his head.' "Well, they wanted to leave her and strike out for themselves. They want to do greaii things in the world, so I've brought them here. Of course no one can do great things all at once, but I'm sure they'd be willing to 'earn. -Perhaps you can start some of them as-stokers on railway, trains.

If they have ambition we all know they wHl get qn, " No one can start at the top, though, eh?" grinned the brownie. "No one," said the little man. The waves were trying to say that they didn't want to work in this horri ble city, they wanted to go back to the sea, but they couldn't say a word. Finally one of thp waves reached into his sea-shell su case and pulled out his sea-weed night shirt. He tried ; to say he wanted to go' back and -he waved his nighr shirt, thinking they would understand as they looked at the sea-weed that surely a creature who wore such queer things wouldn't do for the earthv or the dry land. But the brownie only grinned at the little man. "Ah," he said, "this wave wants a. good night's rest and then he's ready to start in." : , The poor wave, could bear It no longer.
