north Of Westport on the New York
shore, and Is total wreck. The disas-
ter occurred about halfpast twelve
o'clock. after most of the passengers had
retired The night was quite bright.
and If seems understandable that such
an accident should have occurred.
The steamer broke in two. and the
passengers, sixty-fve in number, badly
frightened. at once went ashore in safety

the gang-plank could be used where
they remained until about half-past two.

vessel Is a total wreck. having broken
entirely in two. her stern being sunk.
Every precautiOn was used by Captain
Rushlow and his officers. The fires
were put cut. and the engineers remain

The Champlain was the original Cakes
Ames, and was launched July 3. 1865,
at Marks Bay. and was used for several
years as q ferry boat BY the Rutland
Railroad Company. between Burlington
and Plattsburgh. In 1873 she was pur-
chased by the Champlian Transportation
Company, rebuilt and her name changed
to the Champlain. She was a large,
handsome, staunch vessel. about two
hundred and sixty feet long. had double
engines. and was said to Be the fastest
steamer on the lake She was valued
at 100000, but her loss st this time

A MISSING BALLOON ANDPAS-

There are fears that Barnum's aero
naut, Donaldson, has made his last as
cension. OF descension, whichever it may
be. carrying an unfortunate journalist
along with him. He left Chicago one
week ago Thursday afternoon. accom-
panied by Mr.. GnmvoOd Of the Eve
ming Journal. and passed over the lake
into Michigan during the night at an
elevation Of 1000 feet. Nothing what
ever has been seen or heard Of the aero
nauts since early Thursday evening.
when a schooner sighted them. At that
time, the basket was dipping in the va
Ter about so miles from the shore. As
the schooner turned to render them as
sistance. the balloon again assembled and
appeared to bear away northward. There
was severe storm on the lake during
the night and no tidings whatever have
been heard Of the missing balloon and
its passengers since that time Whether
they were drowned in the lake. or were
lost in the wilderness about Its northern
borders, Is unknown. The career Of the
balloonist Is beset with great dangers.
and sooner or later be comes to grief.
If public taste demands perilOus feats
in order to be satisfied. the law ought
to forbid such adventures. The loss OF
lives and the great suffering that aero
nauts often endure. never ought TO be
demanded or permitted in a humane
age, that the public may have 0pportu-
nifty to see the balloon fly away on Its
