"Now comes the exciting moment, even to
the veteran. Above you the balloon, freed OF
the weight which gave it steadiness, is rock
ing and reeling, while the parachute is whiz-
zing downward You did not feel that you
were ascending, but as you shut your eyes
and draw In your breath in little gasps-a
long drawn inspiration would be impossible
you are fully aware that you are descend

and that end soon, the end of all things will
be at hand Prickly sensations shoot over

to open it out, and as it gradually expands
the motion becomes steadier, until you are

and Threatened with Rabies.
Mr.. Paul Jeandeville, proprietor of
the New Cosmopolitan saloon and
restaurant at Vignes and Turner
streets, has sent communication to
the Council, calling its attention to
the fact that portions of the city are
infested by worthless and dangerous
dogs. On Monday his young son,
while playing on Banning street, near
Vignes, was bitten by one of these
ours, and the lad is now confined to
his bed with dangerous wound on
the leg. The dog is believed to
have been mad and fears are
entertained that hydraphobia may set
in. DR.. Grier Wheeland was sum
moned Immediately after the accident,
and hasapplied every remedy known
to science to prevent the fatal result.
The leg of the boy is unusually SWELL
ed, and he is in great agony. Jeande-
vile Immediately after the accident
hired boy to shoot the dog. SO there
is no more danger from this one, but
there are others at large that seem
quite as dangerous, and Mr.. Jeande-
vile asks that these be impounded by
the police, or that the owners be re-
quired to keep them muzzled. About
agar ago, the complainants little
daughter was bitten much in the same
manner.
