The balloon was all inflated at the
usual hour Frid y mil M ss Nolan was
getting ready for the start, when an acci
dent happened, die, first that has oecurred
since 1 ol. Hutchison has had charge ot
the ascensions at the Fair. The wind
blew the balloon sidewise to such an
extent as to cause it to strike a pole used
in supporting the balloon as it being
filled and such a rent was made that the
balloon speedily collapsed.
I lie tear was so large that it could not
be repaired in time to ascend and the
other balloon which had been used the
day bef re and which fell in the woods
ncros3 Neusc river had not been recovered,
so the ascension could not take place.
The reason the accident occurred was
that there were certain ropes on the miss
ing balloon which belonged to lie trans
ferred from one balloon to the other were
missing.

The unusually bad weal her which im

as full a display of varieties us is usually

not one whit behind any pievuun exhib

ingenuity Jlisplayed in gelling up the
newly constructed j)oil a scene so true t

in its liquid depths was easy to obtain
Klectric lights in Ihe water showed them
up even more prettily at night than in the

The borders of the pool w.-im likewise
covered with sand neatly lined with
mosses, elc , giving it Iheappeaiance of a
shore with several de.id young alligators
of different sizes ranging from a f.iv
