And Parachute Leap. We have secured America's most famous Balloonist to make a grand aerial ascension in his mammoth, newly constructed balloon

It is said by those familiar with

hibiting dragging for mussels
has been the deathblow to the
pearling industry, and this fact
is closing up the button factories
which depended on the shells
secured by the pearlers.—Arkan
sas Democrat. The trouble has
never been attributed to the pres
ent law in this section. The sup
ply of shells was almost exhaust
ed during the fever of the rush
season, and will doubtless soon
be sufficient to give the industry
new life.
