Runaway Balloon Still Aloft Over Midwest Narrowing Path
A giant army balloon broke from Fort Omaha, Nebraska, and drifted northward dragging six thousand feet of steel cable. It lashed wires as it moved toward Oklahoma, with forecasts tying its course to air conditions overnight. Reports indicate it may approach the Oklahoma line by 3 am, while scattered cable-linked incidents occurred between Kansan towns. The scene is complicated by errant cables causing street damage and prompting safety concerns across rural districts.

Hibetans Offer Fighting Force to Allies
A vast Tibetan fighting contingent of 199000 peasants and priests is reportedly offered to Britain for war effort. Dalai, described as the Great Llama, travels to New York with 200 mammal specimens for American researchers. Haller cites Tibet’s readiness to supply sharpshooters and mail-order muskets, noting no formal army exists. The piece weaves wartime optimism with political critique, concluding with Bolshevik demands for funds in Petrograd.
