FAE'AEl FALL
OF an Amateur EsaIlooMist.

Correspondent Wheeling Register. ~
ST.. GAINESVILLE. Ono, October l..
The people of St. Clairsville were
greatly shocked last evening by a.
telegram from Washington, Guern-
sey county, conveying the informa-
ton that Presley S. Cowen, of this
place had met his death by falling
from a balloon at the fair which was
going on there. Presley Cowen is
the oldest son of Hon. Judge CoweD,
one of our prominent citizens, and
was in the thirty third year of his
age. Prof. Tony White, one of our
st. Clairsville boys, has been engaged
in giving balloon ascensions at coun-
ty fairs in this and other States and
has become quite an expert. White
is quite an athlete and was very sue
cessful in all his ascensions. Presley
Cowen, who was somewhat reckless
and not disposed to care much for his
personal safety, has bad for some
time an ambition to become bal
loonist, and he accordingly arranged
with young White to go With him
(White) to the Washington fair and
make his first ascension at that place,
provided two ascensions were to be
made there. White made the first
ascension on Thursday. On Friday
Cowen was determined to ascend, and
90 he would, although Mr.. White and
several other friends, who went to
Washington with them, protested
against it. The officers of the fair
tried to prevent him from taking
snch risky trip. Cowen was rath-
err clumsey, awkward sort ofman, and
when he was found to be set on going
up his friends cautioned him to keep
in the basket all the time. White is
in the habit Of climbingup above the
basket and performing some gymnas-
tic feats ON a bar while in the air.
1t was feared Cowen would attempt
to initiate White in these maneuv-
ers, and he was cautioned frequently
against doing so. He got off all
right on the trip and the ascension
was very fine one. But hardly had
the balloon started until Cowen
climbed up above the basket and
stood there clinging to the ropes with
one hand and waving his hat with
the other He remained in this posi-
ton as long as he could be seen. The
balloon assembled about threeifourths
of mile and then began to descend.
1t came down until it reached the
tops OF the trees in q piece of woods,
three-fourths of a mile from the
fair grounds. When the balloon
struck the tops Of the trees,
those who were watching it from the
fair grounds saw that it suddenly
bounded up into the air again, az
though it had been suddenly relieved

Union-Leader.
Some of the republican papers are
assuming that when the Senate is
called together on the 10th day Of Oc-
tober, the newly elected Senators
from New York and Rhode Island,
have the right to vote on the organi
cation Of that body. The truth is
however, that the law does not give
them that right at ALL If the Demo
cratic Senators were willing to do 80
they cohld not admit the then newly
chosen Senators to take part in the
organization of the Senate by the
election Of a presiding officer. AS
may be well understood. the first bus
mess which would come before the
officer so chosen will he the presenta-
ton of the credentials of those new
Senators, who will already, without
the shadow of right, if some of these
clamorous papers are to have their
way, have voted for his election.
There is an idea existing in GER
tain quarters that the admittance of
these newly elected Senators will give
the republicans majority. Giving
Malone to the latter the Senate will
be tied, with thirty-eight members on
each side. The Providence Journal,
in discussing the question, recently,
claimed that the republicans would
have majority provided the new
Senators were admitted, but the New
York World, whose intelligent infor-
nation in the premises is derived
from the wisest sources, and whose
decisions are to be accepted as en-
tirely logical and true, says, in reply
to the Providence Journal that, eff
Miller, Lapham and the successor of
Burnside had all been sworn in and
all voted for the republican candi-
date, this tie would result in dead
lock. What the Journal would pre-
fer, therefore, would be that the Dem
ocrats should, in defiance Of the law,
allow three persons not members Of
the Senate to take part in its pro-
ceedings for the purpose of produc-
ing deadlock, and Of defeating the
very object and the only object for
which the Senate is assembled !
Surely not even the fact that Rhode
Island possesses the candidate appa-
rent of the Republican Senators for
the Presidency of the Senate should
so affect the law and logic of our
contemporary as to induce it to put
forward this illegal, illogical and pre-
posterous proposition
Under all the circumstances then,
it is clearly matter of compnlsion
upon the Democratic majority to or
ganize the Senate. 1t is as the Phila-
delphia Times argues. the new mem
bers were simply continuing a sup

The election of Orange Noble, the
Democratic candidate for State
Treasurer in Pennsylvania, is pretty
generally conceded by the press in
that State. There are tive republic
can candidates in the field in that
State, General Bailey, the Cameron or
machine candidate, and Charles S.
Wolfe, the independent republican,
who does not believe that the bosses
should force candidates upon the
people that they do not want. Mr..
Noble is a man of unblemished pri-
yate and business character, and
though a Democrat has twice been
elected mayor of the republican city
of Erie, and is ct this time member
of the legislature A part of the
State press claims that without the
Wolfe bolt, his chances of election
would have been very good, but IN
der present circumstances many. re-
gard his election as certain as any
thing in the future can be. Such a
result would certainly be severe re-

for the parties accused of completely

on Information filed in court yester.

made. Brady, Turner and French
are in town, and are to report to tho
court this afternoon. McDonough is

The parties accused In the star route

and defiant Brady says the infor-
nation presented to the court yester-
day is the same document as that
read to Garfield in March last. 1t
was pronounced by him as too frivo-
lous to proceed upon. He says also
that Garfield positively forbade pro-
ceeding by information, as it would
appear that the government was
afraid that its case was not strong
enough to go to grand jury. Colo
mel Cook denies Brady's story and as
serts that an information was never
thought of until after the adjourn
ment of the grand jury on the 18th of
September. This was total sur
prise to the Attorney General, and
none of the Governments counsel
hesitate to impute a desire to shield
the star route. ring to Colonel Cork
hill, the District Attorney They
say it was early found necessary to
conceal the details of the govern
ment's case from him., SO far from
being afraid of the grand jury the
prosecution is ready with six bills of
indictment, which will be presented
at the latest by October 10Th Among
these is bill formed to cover the
Dorsy proceedings. Attorney Gen
eral MacVeagh says that although
there was well grounded suspicion
in regard to Corllhill's fitness for his
place previous to the shooting, Of the
President, and had that event been
deferred but one week q new District
Attorney would have been appointed.
AS soon as Guitcau's trial concludes,
a change will be made. Corkhill is
one of Hayes appointees, and owes
his place to the solicitation Of Jus
tice Miller; of the United States SUI
preme Court, whose daughter he mar
ried.
Senator Pugh, in au interview with
the Western Press Association agent,
denies in toto the existence of any
intention on the part Of the Demo
cratic Senators to abandon their
rights on the organization of the
Senate He knows nothing of any
conference had while on the Presi-
dents funeral trip, and thinks that to
trade off the presiding officer for the
small offices of the Senate would dis
grace any Democratic Senator partic-
ipating in it.
Owing to the red tape process in
the transmission of orders through
the War Department, the order to the
arsenal commandant to fire a daily
salute in honor of the late President
Garfield was not Teceived until last
night. This morning the troops at
the arsenal were drawn up and the
official announcement of the Presi-
dents death made TO them, and for
the first time the firing of salutes was
begun to-day.
A telegram received from King
Kalakula, at Norfolk, says he will
arrive here this evening on the Uni
ted States steamer Dispatch, and he
will leave here to morrow morning
for Cincinnati, whence he will go to
Lexington, KY, to buy horses.

The number of students in attend
Ance at the University at this time is
equal to the attendance of Che three
terms of last year and greater than
at any fall term in the history OF the
institution. Another feature notice
able is the large proportion in the
higher classes. There are three times
as many seniors as last year; twice
as many juniors; probably twice as
many sophomores and a great many
more freshman. The students as d
whole are industrious, quiet young
men, working in good earnest. and
making satisfactory progress. An
other feature worthy of mention is
the number of young men preparing
for the ministry; there being fifteen
at present, of different denominations
showing that the University has the
confidence and support Of the various
Christian churches of the State. In
fact everything augers we'll for sncr
cessful years work, and we hope the
indications do not mislead us. The
only thing needed to help the Uni
versity now is a railroad. 1t can
never reach the acme of it's usefulness
until we have communication by rail
with the other sections of the State.
