There were two accidents that
caused personal injury. Thursday

The balloon straight

a little to the north west. Mile-
Theresa stood watching from the
starting point, when she thought
the balloon had gone sufficiently
high, fired a pistol shot signal for
the professor to cut loose the
parachute and descend. The
was not heeded, and after
watching the balloon go higher
and for a few moments
she fired two rapid shots.
Then there was the sudden
drop through of the man
and parachute and in a few
feet the parachute opened
and checked the
row-like speed of descent. Yet
the exceeding calmness of the
air and the heavy weight of the
the descent rather
rapid. The balloon fell on Dick-
avenue near the residence
C. A. White, and the
parachute in the lot behind his
residence. Here was where the
accident came Prof. Broad-

very bad wounds, one on either
side of the small of back.
He was carried to Hotel Green-
ville where Dr. Fountain attended
to his injuries. Besides being
badly bruised, three ribs are
broken, but he is getting along as
well as could be expected and
will soon be out. he says he is
accustomed to accidents and
laughs about them.
The other accident was to Capt.
C. A White. He was in his
front yard, and seeing the balloon
fall in the street and the para-
chute sailing over the house he
began turning about to watch
the latter, not noticing carefully
where he stepped while looking
upward. By a misstep or

the fall his right wrist was
broken, and the left wrist
sprained his side badly hurt.

resting fairly well. Being about
years old and not a strong
man, his recovery will be slower
than if he was younger. The

enough to have a little sensation,
I wonder if any body in town
can give an accurate idea as to
the number of dogs in this old
town. Of course the writer hits
an idea, but it is taken off hand
from a bird's eye view of main
street I should say from what
I have seen that there is in the
neighborhood of
hundred. But of course if any-
one else has seen a less number
he is entitled to his opinion. But
according to my calculation as
based upon aforesaid figures
half the population of this burg j
consists of dog meat.
while I think of it, can't some
body rig up an ordinance that
will keep the aforesaid Dart of
the population off the sidewalks
