A Balloon on Fire.
FEARFUL DEATH AT DEKALB, ILL.,
A MAN FALLS 800 FEET FROM A
BURNING BALLOON.

An extra of tho Dc Kulb News,
issued at G o'clock on Friday oven.
ing, contains tho following account
of disaster which occurred on tho
same afternoon at the Dc kalb
Fair grounds:
1fr. Dcnison. tho aronart, who
advertised that Mr.. L.. Durham
would mako dn ascension at that
place this afternoon, was initiating
his monster balloon. "City Of Now
York" and had nearly completed
the initiating process, when people
on the north part of tho grounds
discovered smoke escaping from
the top of tho balloon. Il was
scarcely visible at first, but faster
and faster omitted the smoke, and
tho alarm was given, but hardly
had tho detection In the air ship
become apparent before ilamos were
issuing from tho very top of the
balloon. A shout went UP, "the
balloon is on fire." and as those
near by began to retreat the horses
were also driven hero and there to
escape all danger. The dry cam
brio and its covering began burn
ing, first slowly, then the flames
spread, and upward and onward
went tho fire, q prcmonilion by
this time ovcrtaking the spectators
every ono present feeling that
some fearful if not fatal calamity
would result. Scarcely had the
flames burst out, however, before
an aperture Of two or three feet was
made, where the guy rope holding
the unwieldly thing crossed it;
and now the ropo burns oil, and
away to the southward shoots the
balloon, carrying with it in its
course Mr.. Michael McMann, q la
boror assist t'ng in tho imitation.
Being near the basket as it started
off he became cntangled, and hang
ing with ono foot inside the basket
his hands holding 10 tho ropes
ho thus assembled for perhaps a
hundred feet, and regained n posi-.
ton in tho basket, which again
hung sideways, and in another
minute he was hanging to the ropes
alone, at IL height of probably not
less than 800 feet. Now his strength
gives way, his presence of mind
deserts him, and IN another mo-
ment tho poor Aan is seen falling
to tho ear,h-an awful, q painful
sight, filling with horror and con-
sternation the four or iivo hun
dred spectators on the grounds
But tho suspense was only for u
momcnt as it were. He who but q
little time before was In the enjoy
ment of his faculties, had dtstehd-
cd to the earth nearly in a stand
ing position, from three hundred
feet in mid-air, until, when near
terra frma, he fell backward, strik-
ing the ground with his back with
such force as to produce q concus-
sion heard somo distance away
and Mr.. McMann, familiarity known
rs "Big Nike" was dead-uttcrly
crushed, tho blood streaming from
his mouth and nostrils: 1t was n
sight tho like CT which we hope
never again to behold; and thus
ended what was intended to be a
day of sport. McMann left a wife
and several children, who depend
cd upon his labors for q living,
May God comfort them in their
sore afliiction.
The balloon alighted but q few
rods outside of the fair grounds,
and was soon consumed, a loss OF
several hundred dollars to Mr..
Denison, but nothing as compared
to tho fearful destruction its asccn-
sion ca used.

MonE INDIANS Last week we mention
ell that Gen. Mckenzie had started hiter
ths Indians, and that hard night was
expected. Mill. Shoemaker, WHO has just
returned from .Tacksboro, informs us That
the soldiers engaged have just returned and
report heavy fight on the North fork "
Red River, about 800 miles northwest from
Jacksboro Thirty Indians were killel,
about 126 prisoners taken and 100 lodges
catsured. The Tonkawas claim that they
have eighty scalps, taken in the fight,
though the whites say that they only saw
thirty dead Indians. "The Indians were
of the Quahnda Comanches. After send
ing the troops to Jacksbcro, Mckenzie,
with some troops from TT. Griffin, took the
prisoners TO Ft. Concho.
This speaks well for the U. s. troops,
aud we are we'll satisfied that il the de-
partment at Washington would allow them
TO do as they wish, they would whip the
red devils every time they came in, and
soon make them glad to stay on their own
ground.-AdrGnes Guard.
