THE MAJOR'S BALLOON STORY.
~ - r
' Bis Way of Getting Bullets and Ballast
Caused It to Be Told.
Prom the Chicago Dally 7Yt7>une.
Maj. Carr a way was not handsome, but
the boys liked him very much,-be von so
full of wonderful reimnifoenceg, and ha was
always willing to tell anybody who would
listen all about hicnqlt. ,To Jack and
Molly he was the greatest hero that had
aver lived. The youngsters had ouly to
ask the major a question—any oue, It mat
tered aot what it was—to start him off on a
stury of adventure, and as he called upon
jack ard Molly’s father onoo a month
regularly, the .children were not long in
getting together a collection of tales, be
side which the most exciting episodes in
history paled Into insignificant comrnon
piacee.
"Uncle Major," said Jaok <ne day as he
ciimbed up into the visitor’s lap, “were you
ever up in a balloon?"
“Only once,” said the major calmly.
"But I had enough of it that time to last
me for a iifetime.”
"Were you in it long?” queried Molly,
taking possession of the other kuee.
“Weil, it seemed long enough,” the major
answered. “Three months off in thecountry
playing all day long and sleeping all night
seems a very short time, but three months
in a balloon and the ooi Btant center of at
tack from every source is too long for
comfort.”
"Were you up in the air for three whole
months*’ asked Jaok, his eyea wide open
with astonishment.
“AH but two days,” said the major.
“For two of those days we rested in the
top of a tree in India. The way of it was
this: 1 was always, as you know, a great
favorite with the Emperor Napoleon 111. of
f ranoe, and when, in 1870, he found him
self involved in a war with Germany, he
replied to one of his courtiers, who warned
him that his army was not in condition 10
fight the Prussians: ‘Any army is prepared
for war whose commauder in cbier num
bers Maj. Carraway among bis advisers.
Let me have Carraway at my right hand
and I will fight the world.’
“So they sent for me, and as I was not
very busy I concluded to go and assist the
French, although King William and I were
also very good friends. I reasoned it out
this way: In this fight William is the
stronger. He does not need me. Napoleon
does. Fight for the weak, Carraway, I said
to myself, and so 1 went. Of oourse when
I reached Puris I went at once to rho em
peror’s palace and remained at blsside until
he took to the field, when 1 remained be
hind for a few days to put things to rights
for the imperial family. Unfortunately
for the Freuch the King of Prussia heard
of my delay in going to the front, and he
sent word to his forces to intercept me on
my way to join Napoleon at all hazard -,
and this they did. When I wag within ten
mileg of Napoleon’s headquarters I was
Btopped by the Prussians, and had it not
been that 1 bad provided myself with u
balloon for just such an emergency, I
should have been captured and confined in
the kiDg’s palace at Berlin until the war
was over.
52" Foreseeing all this I had brought with
me a large balloon packed away in a secret
section of my trunk, and while my body
guard was fighting with the Prussian troops
sent to capture me, I and my servant in
flated the balloon, jumped into the car, and
were soon high up out of the enemy’s reach.
They fired severai shots at us, and one of
them would have pierced the balloon had I
not, by a rare good shot, fired my < wn rifle
at the bullet, and, hitting it squarely in the
middle, as is my custom, diverted it from
its oourse, and so saved our lives.
‘ 'lt had been my intention to soil direotly
over the heads of the attacking party and
drop down into Napoleon’s camp the next
morning, but unfortunately for my calcula
tion a heavy wind storm came up in the
night, and I and my servant were caught
by a southerly blast and blown into Africa,
where, poised in the air direotly over the
desert of Sahara, we encountered a dead
oaitn, which kept us stalled for two miser
able weeks.”
“Why didn’t you come down?” asked
Molly.
“We didn’t dare to," explained the
major. “It we had we’d have wasted a
great deal of our gas, and our condition
would have been worse t-han ever. As I
told you, wo were right over the center of
the desert. There was no way of getting
out of it except by long and wearisome
marches over the hot, burning sands, with
the chances largely in favor of our never
getting out of it alive. The only thing to
do was to stay just where we were and wait
lor a favoring breeze. This we did, having
to wait four mortal weeks.”
“You said two weeks a minute ago,
major,” said Jack.
“Two! Hem! Well, yea, It was two, now
that I think of it. It’s a natural mistake,”
said the major, strokiug his mustache a lit
tle nervously. “You see, two weekß lu a
balloon over a vast desert of sand, with
nothing to do but whistle for a breeze, is
equal to four weeks aoywhero else. That is,
it seems so. Auv how, two weeks or four,
whichever it was, the breeze came finally
aud along about midnight left us stranded
again directly over ati Arab encampment
near Wady Haifa, it was a more perilous
position really than the first, because the
niomeut the Araba caught sight of us they
began to make frantic efforts to get us
down. At first we simply laughed them to
scorn and made faces at them because, as
far as we could see, wa were safely out of
reach. This enraged them, aud they ap
parently made up their minds to kill us if
they could. At first tneir idea was to get
us down alive and sell us as slaves, but our
Jeers changed all that, and what should they
do but whip out a lot ot guns and begin to
pepper us.
“ ‘i’ll settle them in a minute,’ I said to
myself, and set about loadiug my own gun.
Would you believe it, I found that my last
bullet was the one with which i hod saved
the balloon from the Prussian shot?”
"Mercy!” Baid Molly. “What did you
do?”
"I threw out a bag of sand ballast so
that the balloon world rise jus; out of the
bullets’ reach, aud then, as the bullets got
to tneir highest point aud began to drop
hack, I reached out and caught them with
a dipper. Iu less thau twenty minutes I
had every builec the Arabs had fired. With
these I loaded my rifle aud shot every one
°t the hostile party, and when the last of
tha attacking party dropped I found
ttiere were enough b illets left to fill the
tad ;,ag again, so that the lest
ballast waa not missed. In fact,
there were enough (it them in weight to j
wing the balloon down so nC '.r to the |
ssrth that our anchor rope dangled directly
over the encampment, so that my valet and
*> without wasting any of our gas, oould
climb down and secure all the magnificent
treasures in rugs and silkß and rare jewels
t’icse robbers of the desert bad managed to
got together in the course of their depreda
tion. When these were placed in the car
another breeze caiue up aud for the balance
of the time we drifted about the heavens
*siting for a convenient ftlace to laud. In 1
this manuor wo woro blown hither and yon

finally we were wrecked upon a tall tree in
tfiilin, where weescaped by menus of a con

from the Arabs wo had to lease be
mu us in the tree, woere I suppose they
'tih are. I hope some day to go back and
find them."
;‘® r ® tho major paused fora moment to
breath. Then he added, with a
ij* n: 'Of course I went baok to Fram e

never went anywhere. These laid enough
eggs overy day to keep us alive. The fish
wo caught when our balloon stood over the
sea.”
“But the chickens?” said Molly. “Wbat
did they live on?”
The major blushed.
"I am sorry you asked that question,
Molly,” he Raid. "But i’ll answer it if you
w ill promise never to tell anyone. It was
the only time in my life when I ever prac
ticed an intentional deception, and I have
always regretted it.”
"What was it, Uncle Major?” asked
Jack.
“I took the egg Bhell and ground them up
into powder ar.d fed them to the chickens.
The poor creatures supposed it was oorn
meal they were getting,” confessed the
major. “I knew it was mean—but what
could I do?”
“Nothing,” said Molly softly. "And I
don’t think it was so bad after all. Any
other person than you would have kept
them laying eggs until they starved, and
then he’d have killed them and eaten them
up. You let them live.”
“That may be so, Molly,” said the major,
with a smile that showed how relieved his
conscience was by the little maid’s sugges
tion. "But 1 oouldn’t do that, you know,
because they were pets."
Then Jaok and Molly climbed down and
went to their play, strengly of the opinion
that, though a bold warrior, the major was
a singularly kind, soft-hearted man after
all.
