°ended from the Crystal Palace on Mon-

the wilco of getting a living by the ex-
hibition of her courage. According to
her own account, which was voriliod by
50,000 spectators on Monday, she ascends
some mile and a half into the air (3,000
metres is hor own estimate) hanging to a

usually strong. An iron bar is attached
to a trapeze suspended from the car, to

piece, or ball of that snbstanoo, has boon
