PROF. JOHN WISE made his 453d bal
loon ascension from Philadelphia yester-
day. John Wise, his grandson, and Miss
Lizzie Ihling, his niece, also made ascen-
sions. Miss Ihling was the first to ascend,
and when she had reached about 5000 feet
in the air, two miles from the starting
place, the balloon burst, and was torn from
the top to the valve. The gas came out in
such quantities as to completely over
power Miss Ihling, and she fell into the
bottom of the basket insensible. She lay
there, and the balloon fell to the ground.
The lady was badly injured but not killed.
When the balloon was first seen to burst it
spun around with fearful velocity and the
gas-bag fell over the side. The parachute
arrangement attached to the balloon is
what saved the lady from being dashed to
pieces. John Young Wise landed last
evening, in safety, on the Blue Grass
Road, between Holmesburg and Bustle-
ton, Pa.-Brooklyn Argus.
