an attack upon several wealthy estab-
lishments, among others the only bank
in the place, and completely sacked
them, killing and wouDding the persons
who endeavored 10 defend them, and
also burning the buildings. They then
retired 10 the two Cuartcls, carrying
their plumber, and there intrenched
themselves, bidding defiance to the
authorities OF the State. The city re-
mained in n state OF alarm and terror for
four days. Many families fed TO the
woods and others barricaded their doors
and kept guard night and day. General
Witches, the President OF the State,
hastened from the capital, SOcOrrO,

The Third regiment of Sikhs and the

Peshawur states that General GOrdan,

fifth and Eighty-ninth Lancers and part

FATAL FALL.
Two AerOnauts Killed.

SAN Francisco, October 4.--About
half past O'Clock Prof. Colgraye, aero
naut, and c. II. Williams, manager Of
WoOdward's Garden, attempted TO make
a balloon ascension from the gardens.
The wind was blowing gale and the
balloon seemed to be insutficiently in
hated with gas and rose heavily above
the buildings of the garden. Soon after
it dropped and scudded along at a low
elevation, tearing away the telegraph
wires in its flight. In a moment the
bag ripped and the gas escaped with a
roar heard for several blocks.
Both occupants OF the basket
were thrown out falling on
Folsom street, between Fourteenth and
Fifteenth streets, while the balloon came
down a few rods beyond. \ great
crowd from the Gardens and vicinity
instantly collected and medical aid was
summoned. Williams was fearfullv
crushed about the face and head and
died in few moments. Colgrove's face
was somewhat bruised, but his injuries
aremostly internal, and, although aliveat
last accounts, he was insensible and not
likely to survive.
The disaster has created considerable
sensation, and many who frequent the
Gardens assert that the balloon was
badly patched and unsafe at best, and
express surprise at Williams risking the
ascension, especially in such boisterous
weather.
Prof. Colgrave has since died from his
injuries. Prof. Martin, aeranaut, and
others who were present at the ascen-
sion, begged Williams not to 20 up, say
ing in the half gale that was blowing he
was literally taking his life in his hand.
The men fell at about 200 feet, the bal
loon rebounding after striking the tele
graph wire, then striking the chimney
and again rebounding, at which moment
the aeranauts were thrown out.
