FELL oNE THOUSAND FEET.
Thomas Wensley, a Canadian Butcher, Car
ried Heayenward by q Balloon.


The fair ground was the scene of a
fatal and thrilling accident to-day.
Thomas Wensley, young butcher of o.
taws, Ont, fell distance of 1000 feet
from an ascending balloon and was
literally dashed to pieces in the presence
of 10000 Mortified spectators. The un-
fortunate victim was engaged with a
number of others in holding the ropes
attached to q monster balloon. When the
balloon was sufficiently inflated and the
aeronaut had taken his position in the
basket, the order was given to the men
holding the ropes toilet go. All oboyed
with alacrity save Wensley, who apparent
ly failed to understand tse directions.
As the balloon sio Ely ascended the man
wan lifted from the ground, and a thous
and voices shouted to him 20 release his
hold upon the rope. He appeared, how
ever, TO be perfectly dazed by the perilous
position he was in, and heedless of the
cries of the frightened men around him
chung tenaeiously and with frenzied
grip to the rope. The balloon oontinu-
ed to ascend, carrying the desperately
frightened Wensley along with it, and the
crowd watched with horror his perilous
flight. When the balloon was about 1,00o
feet in the mir, aud the dangling
human being appeared TO mere speok
g shrill cry arose from the assembled
thousands who had been watching his
flight in 2we-strUck silence. The man
had released his hold upon the rope and
was descending with terrible velocity.
While falling ne turned several somer
ssults ia mid-air and ,hen was dashed
headlong to the ground.
The scene was horrible. Hundreds of
ladies tainted az the CHASTITY sight
Strong men stood spelbound, aud it was
some minutes before any one could
muster courage 20 approach the spot
whore the unfortunate man had fallen,
which was only about one hundred yards
from the spot Whera the ascent took
place. The man had struck upon his
shoulders, aud was virtually dashed 20
pieces. He was simply an unrscOgniza-
BILE mass OF lacerRted human flesh. The
remains were taken charge OF by the
police Authorities. Some of his com
panions stated that the man had an
nounced has intention of ascending u few
feet with the balloon and then dropping
10 the ground in order to create sensa-
ton, and it was thought that he had be

herbs, while the bucks we're .ouatted in a
semi circle, some distance away. Tho
meolclne men watched the steaming of
the herbs until the mess had been boiled
down to teacupful of liquid. Then a
pigeon and his mate wero taken from a
basket and held by the medicine men
while the hquig from the herbs was
poured down Their throats. The male
bird when released, flew away. The fe-
male bird t1uttered few Yards and then

With excitement. They leaped 10 their
feet and danced, while tbs bucks sat in
sullen silence. While the medicine men
we're IN the midst OF their orRie, they de.
ciared that there was witch in the tribe.
The female bird had died, while the male
bird had flown away into the night This
test determined the sex of the witch.
When the bucks heard the words OF the
medicine men they became wild with rege.
Zach brave suspected the othsr OF har-
boring the witch iu his tepee or cabin.
But final test was TO be made WITH
yeils and imprecations, the frepzied reds
drove their women 10 the place where the
council had been held, and where the
white pigeon still lay among the herbs
aud grasses. The squaws we're driven in
single file, with the medicine men watch
ing with nervous excitement the face of
each as she passed the bird. Finally a
young squaw, the daughter of Cres0, a
sub chief, stepped ont of the ranks ana

neu.J.ae NOR, with loud yells seized The
girl and pinioned her arms. The unfor-
innate squaw pleaded piteously FOX her
life, which she seemed TO foresee was in
peril, but her cries were of DO avail, her
own relatives assisting in dragging her to
the council place The death Of the fe-
male pigeon was conclusive evidence that
q squow was the witch. The first equaw
to touch the bird was the fatal test of
guilt. The poor girl who was hut
eighteen years old, was stripped of her
clothes, tied to stake and a slow fire
built under her.
For two hods she fingered in awful
agony, ard while her death screams
filled the air the braves danced about the
fire and the medicine men muttered mean
tatious When morning came nothing but

black emheTs of the fire remained about
the stake. The disease from which so
many of the Moja,e braves died is be
liegad to be malignant typhoid fever.
Tne details of this strange story were
brought to Los Angeles by ranohers Who
had been attracted to the camp of the
Indians by the noise which attended the
terrible death OF the girl.

vantages OF equal rights In the fisheries and water
