A DANGEROUS BALLOON VOYAGE.

Professor Hogan, who made q balloon
ascension from Hillsdale, Mich, says it was
the most hazardous trip of his life. At 9
height of mile and half current of ain
caused his balloon to roll from side to side,
and threw the valve rope beyond his reach,
SO that he lost control. He took scrap
book and pencil and wrote notes, which he
let fall to the earth, of which he got occa-
sional glimpses through the clouds. AT the
end of ninety minutes he struck u current
which carried him rapidly north, in sight
of Saginaw City, and then another which
took him over Lake Huron. When near
Toledo the balloon veered in such manner
as to enable him to catch the valve. When
he looked for place to land he began to
descend, but found himself in the midst of
dense swamp. Ascending, he made an at
tempt to strike in large field, but was
plunged to the bottom of the Maumee
River, near Waterville. o.
Then the balloon reboumded to the top Of
tall tree and collapsed, the voyager catch.
ing limb. He thinks he must have been
at one tune five miles above the earth. He
suffered greatly from cold, and when Mt the
greatest height il was very difficult for him
to breathe. He had q canteen of liquor,
and an occasional swallow saved his life by
keeping him from going to sleep, for the
feeling of drowsiness was very strong, and
at times nearly overcame him. He believes
he travelled over 200 miles in three hours
as most of the time he was blown along at
frightful speed.

FOUR DAYS IN A FREIGHT CAR.


Workmen employed at Washington avenue
wharf on Monday, says the Philadelphia
Record, observed small stick protruding
from hole in freight car standing ON the
tracks. The stick kept moving around and
the men decided to open the ear. The door
was thrown open and there to their great
surprise, was n haif-starved lad. The boys
countenance was haggard, and he was too
weak to walk. He was taken to the Second
District Police Station. DIR. Nebinger gave
;he boy some restoratives and prescribed
light but strengthening food. The boy
told the following story: My name is

NORTHWESTERN SCENERY.
Mount Tacomn, Monarch of the Northern
Meuntains--A New Resort.


I absolutely never believed there was any.
Ching in America comparable in grandeur
to the scenery have seen on my necessarily
brief visit 10 Mount Tacoma. The access,
thanks to the well.c trails made by the
engineer of the Northwestern Pacific Road,
Is easy and will be made as easy as car
riage road, or nearly, within month from
now. To express half of my admiration for
she transcendant grandeur of every part o.
;he scenery, and especially of the glacier,
in all the features found in such phenomena,
II would be impossible to find words Ger
tainly no Alpine glacier excels 1t in perfec-
ton. and yet, as was given to understand,
it is the least, in point of size, of all that
have been discovered on this mountain.
cannot help saying that I am thoroughly
convinced that no resort in the United
States will be SO much sought after as this
when once people come to know that what
men cross the Atlantic to see can be seen in
equal splendor, if not surpassed, at home.
hear doubts expressed Ms to whether
Mount Tacoma can be assembled but a
steady head, q sure foot, a reliable alpen-
stock and little determination could
probably accomplish what is of course
very daring feat. New Tacoma has q for
tune in the fact that it is the best point from
which to start to this, the grandest of all
American mountains. II Switzerland is
rightly called the playground of Europe, J
am satisfied that around the base of Mount
Tacoma will become prominent place OF
resort, not for Americans only, but for the
world besides. Nothing can be, TO me ut
least, more enjoyable than the gradual APP
proach to the inner circle of the court where
the monarch of our northern mountains
reigns supreme. The emotions stirred in
ones breast completely defy all the powers
of language to express. Whep we reached
the foot Of the glacier, footsore and weary
as we were, / could not help pausing in
breathless silence as we reviewed this ma
jestic mass Of ice, imbedded in the bosom
Of this gigantic monarch among the Alps.
II It was not the grandest of the group, as
we were informed, 1t was enough magnifi-
cence for us. The stupendous sides of the
canyon in which the glacier lay, formed a
setting perfect in harmony of contrast, if
ne term be admissible, to the pagodas and
pinnacles of the secluded mass of ice.
/ have been through the Swiss mountains,
and I am compelled 70 own that, incredible
as the assertion may appear, there is abso
lutely no comparison between the finest ef-
fects that are exhibited there and what ia
seen in approaching this grand, isolated
mountain. I would be willing to go Eve
hundred miles again TO see that scene. This
continent is yet in ignorance of the existence
Of what will be one Of the grandest show
places a. well as sanitarium. --Senatov

A PAINTERS QUEER JOE.

During the backward. season of vegeta-

the northwestern suburbs Of Detroit ckanc-
ed to encounter an old friend who follows
the vocation of painter. We may add
that both parties are fond of a joke as the
sequel proves. Our artistic friend com.
planned Of being out of a job.
" You can find plenty to do" said the
other "There are the beans inmy garden,
for example. They have yellow hue that
seems perfectly hopeless. If you could on
ly touch them up and make them appear
little more lifelike would be happy"
8 will attend to their case the first oppor
tunity," was the response.
Taking advantage of the absence of tht
joyial horticulturist lest he should recant,
the painter embraced the first opportunity
to make his appearance on the ground arm
ed and equipped as the laws of trade direct
with brush and paint pot, and in very
short space of time the sickly plants were
robed in the full flush of the emerald hue

MIR. Nowland as STATE Treasurer.
fMiddletown Transcript.


The Office of State Treasurer Is soon to be
filed, and New Castle county justly claims
IL. As far back as the 'oldest inhabitant"
can remember the honor has gone to Kent
or Sussex, and it would seem to be about
time for Treasurer to be selected from
north of the Kent line. OF The two candt-
dates for the office from this county both
are well-known residents of st. Georges
hundred. Mr.. II. A. Nowland is a farmer
by occupation, has always been an
efficient, though conscientious worker in his
party, and was an active member of the
House Of Representatives in 1875. Thomas
CaveHder is also farmer, and consistent
aud faithful Democrat. Both have friends
who are active in presenting their respective
claims TO the Office. Both arc capable and
clever gentlemen, much esteemed in this
community. Either would discharge the
duties of State Treasurer faithfully, and win
as honorable an official record as the present
clever Incumbent has.

Enlarging.

Messrs. Ball & Company business has so
increased that they find their present store
room totally inadequate, although they now
have one of the largest stores in the city.
Accordingly they have removed the beauti-
fui show rooms that were in the centre of
the store and in their place are putting up
racks aud stands for papers. They have
also taken in large part of the hall which
adjoins their store and are arranging that
for an office and exhibition rooms. Hand
some hand paintings and fine paper hang
ings are to adorn the wall and the store will
lose none Of its ORIGINAL beauty and finish.

Freeman, tho Accused, Attempts 20 Prove
an AlIbi-An Interview in jail.
MERIDEN, Conn, Jan. 6.-The Press-
Recorder last evening published an inter-
view with Henry p. Freeman, the colored
man FIRST suspected Of the murder Of Phebe
Brush, the Stratford negroes, who was found
dead in her house Sunday evening with
seven axe wounds IN the back OF
her head. Freeman appears to prove
an alibi and what he says
greatly strengthens suspicion In another
direction. Freeman, who has been CORE
spending with Mrs. Brush for over q year
and was very intimate with her, says that
Brush had abused her shamefully at times.
She only lived six weeks with him, after
which she had sued for divorce, and the
case was to have had a hearing last We'd
nesday.
Brush had asked his wife to return and
live with him, but she had refused. The
fact that q colored man, almost Identical
In description with Brush, was seen about
Mrs. Brush's house Saturday afternoon,
sustains Freeman's talk TO some extent
Mr.. Brush lived here a year ago and was
looked upon as faithful servant and a re-
spectacle woman.
