Ballooning and Reporting.

Sometimes reporter goes up in
balloon with an aerOnaut. 1t would
seem at first sight that the balloon man
had the reporter completely at his ner-
cy, but such is not the case. He laughs
best who laughs last, and the reporter
has the writing up of the aerial voyage.
Recently q balloon ascension was made
near Montreal and reporter of the
New York Herald went up. The ac-
count of the trip shows conclusively
that it was one of the most terrible on
record. But the mind of the reader
turns with pleasure from the harrow Of
the 81 uatiOn to admire the wonderful
bravery of this daring reporter. The
balloon would swoop down on forests,
then bound to the skies, or nearly there,
then dip into lake, then turn double
somersault without touching the ground,
in fact, it acted in the most outrageous
and undignifed manner. The balloon
ist was pale as ashes, his teeth chatter
ed and his knees knocked together.
But the reporter, oh, where was hep
With q calm smile at danger, and look
of unruffisd serenity on his marble brow,
he gave his order in the same quiet tone

steak rare at penny restaurant. The
trembling balloonist was bid to lul his
fears. The reporter mildly informed
him that the next thing to do was to
get down out of this and ordered him
| to throw out some more ballast. The
balloonist was so utterly Frustrated by
fear that instead of doing this he open
ed the valve and the balloon started
down. The balloon struck aforest and
tore great oaks up by the roots and left
track of failed trees in its wake. The
reporter desiring to stop this wholesale
destruction of valuable timber climbed
on the netting, kicked open the valve
and brought up the restive balloon
against barn. Having saved the life
of the aeronaut several times he com.
pleted his good work by carrying the
, fainting man into farm house and
there resuscitating him. When you lei
, a New York reporter tell his own story
You will find him the bravest, most dar
ing hero on record. Free Press

Wicked Wong Wing.

Yesterday morning Chief of Police
Allen received q telegram from the Chief
of Police of Sacramento telling him to
arrest Chinaman named Wong Wing,
who would arrive on the train from
California. The Chief made the cap
ture. It has since been learned that
Wong Wing ran away from California
few weeks ago with $500 of the funds
belonging to Chinese Methodist
Church. Some months ago the Metho.
dists of Sacramento started branch
church for the benefit of the Chinese
who wished to embrace the Christian
religion. Wong Wing being a more
devout disciple than the rest, and more
fervent in his prayers, he was picked
out by the church members as the custo-
dian of the funds After while he be-
gan to exhort his brethren to abjure
sintulness, tan-games, and chicken steal
ing, and lay up their treasures where
neither moth nor rust could corrupt,
nor thieves break through and steal.
Taking the hint, they began to deposit
their surplus funds with the church,
and he, being the Treasurer, soon had
about 5000 in cash in his hands. He
continued to preach as usual on the duty
of saving up heavenly treasures, but
after a while the Celestials, seeing M
immediate return, and discovering Mr.
Wing bucking against tan-game, re
fused to pungle further. Disguised will
the lack OF zeal exhibited by the congre
cation, Wong Wing left the tabernacle
and came to Nevada. He also brough
the money with him belonging to th
church. He will 60 back tonight on
charge of oflarceny.-Nrginia City (Nev-
