TALE OF A SHIRT.


BURLINGTON, Ia, September IS
The empty balloon which descended
AT Monmouth, ILL.,, yesterday and ere
ated such n sensation was one in
which an acronaut named Williams
was to make an ascent from the fair
grounds here, accompanied by n
newly married couple. A strong
wind WAS blowing during the morn
ing and shortly before the time of
departure rent was discovered in
the bag, through which the gas was
escaping. The bridal party objected
to taking passage in an unsafe
balloon and Prof Williams then os-
saycd to make the ascent alone,
but IL was found the escape OF
gas had been so great that when the
basket was detached the balloon
would moi 90 mp with the professor
and descended twenty yards from
the starting point. A man named
George Fleming, who has made sew
eral ascensions, came up and ex-
changed places with the professor.
The balloon slowly rose and driftcd
OIL to the north but came down
about twelve miles above the city
and Fleming alighted. The balloon,
freed from the weight, again rose
and in doing sOa portion of Pfen-
ning's shirt caught on the anchor
and was torn on, and this created the
impression that he was killed.
