A very large crowd gathered at Caro lina Beach yesterday afternoon, attract ed thither by the many attractions this delightful resort off ers.but 'principally the expectation of seeing Prof. Jewell make his thrilling leap for life from his balloon. The series of surprises the public .have been treated to so far put everyone on the quivivi. A variety of opinions were expressed as to what surprise was in store for the afternoon. But in spite of the high wind the daring young aeron aut made an ascension and para chute : leap. It was ieared at first that the high wind would render it impossible to inflate the mon ster balloon.buf these fears were ground less. The monster tugged at its fasten ing as the furnace poured hot air into it until it was fully inflated. The fas tenings cast off, with 'a cheery "good bye" the balloon sprung upward, car rying the aeronaut who hung by his toes during, the ascent. The South wind carried the the balloon to the North. At the distance of about 1,500 feet Prof. Jewell cut lpose the parachute. Like a bullet the man and the apparatus shot towards earth, then the parachute slow ly unfolded and settled down very gently about three-quarters of a mile from the point where the ascension t was made This afternoon Prpt. lewell will give another exhibition which will no doubt attract a large crowd. The West India Cyclone.; The observer in charge of the Signal station here was instructed yesterday to keep the information" signal flying. The Martinique hurricane was reported as just north of Hayti, movingtoward southern Florida, and, according- to the rate of movement given, it should reach there by this morning. It is regarded as possible, however, that it may re curve northerly barely reaching further west than the Bahamas. Information signals yellow pennants are displayed on the Atlantic coast from Norfolk to Key West. Advices last night were that there was little probability - of the cyclone striking the Florida coast. It is quite likely, however,! that the disturbance will cause heavy rain storms all along the South Atlantic coast. A Poor Shot. A police officer fired his pistol at a dog on North Front street near Walnut yesterday evening. ; He missed the dog, but the pistol-ball glancing struck the piazza of a house across the street, much to the consternation of several ladies and children who were seated on -the piazza.
