FALLING FROM A TIGHT ROPE.
Professor Dare, the Man Fly, Killed
While Walking BlIndfOIded.

Professor D. j. Dare, the "man fly,
gYmnsst and rOpe-walker," was advertised
to give an exhibition upon the tight rope
Monday afternoon at Flushing, L. l. during
which he was to walk backward and for
ward blindfolded, tied from head to foot in
a sack, and with his feet in cheese box.
At two o'clock large crowd had assem-
bled, long wire rope was extended across
Bridge street, from the TINS office to
Bowne's feed store, opposite, and fastened
around under the caves of the building. A
lever which frightened the rope was held In
place by being caught under the edge of the
roof. After going through the simpler por
ton of the exhibition a handkerchief was
tied around his head, and he proceeded to
walk across blindfolded. At this point the
stick slipped, the rope slaekened suddenly,
and he fell sstride it. He rebounded
and fell thirty feet to the macadsm-
lied road, striking upon his head and left
shoulder, and fracturing his skull. He was
carried into Shsw's restaurant, close by,
where he raised his head twice or thrice,
calculated "Oh, my Godp' and expired. He
was afterward taken to the Fountain House,
where he now lies. A telegram was sent 10
his wife and his aunt, Mrs. A. H. Odell, at
239 Ninth avenue. They arrived at z o'clock,
and telegraphed to his father, the Rev. Dr.
Seman, editor of the Norwich G;ntinI.
The real name of the deceased was James
Seman. He was about five feet six inches
high, spare but athletic, with dark eyes and
moustache. He was twenty-eight years of
age, and had been engaged as professional
gymnast for about twelve years. He fell
three months ago in Hollister, California,
and was so badly hurt that he lay uncon-
scious for ten days. He was employed in
1871 by Barnum, but has since been giving
exhibitions on his own account.
