MAY COST AN ARM.
E. r. Richards Has a Bad Fall


Through a Ceiling.
E. r. Richards, business manager of
the Minneapolis team, met with a
serious accident at the roller toboggan
slide at Washington rink, which may
result in the loss of an arm. The
accide mt was fall and was in no way
connected with the toboggan sport. Mr..
Richards, with a party of ladies, was
enjoying the dizzy shoots. and the tobog-
gan in which they we're seated had just
started on its journey. on the upper
floor. The incline is very slight there
and the car moved so slowly that Rich
ards, fearing the next tob0ggan would
run into them, stopped the car by catch
ing one of the iron supports Of the cell
ing. The party got out on the rafters
and cast about for a way to go down
stairs. The rafters are covered simply
with casing, but Richards supposed it
was flooring and stepped upon it; it in
stantly gave way and he was preciptated
TO the bottom of the rink below. With
his great weight the fail was
terrific and he was unconscious when
picked up. The patrol wagon was
called and he was removed to his home,
where an examination showed his arm
to be badly fractured and possibly am
putation necessary. Several phySi-
clans were called into consultation, and
an effort will be made to save the arm.
Richards is well known and popular
about the city, and the news of the acci-
dent, with its possible unfortunate re-
suits, was received with every express
sion of regret.

ITS TWENTY-SECOND.
Anniversary of the Minneapolis
Young Mems Christian Associa-

Anniversary of the Minneapolis
Young Mems Christian Associa-
tion.
The twenty-second anniversary cele-
bration of the Minneapolis Young Mems
Christian association, held at West
minister church last evening, was largely
attended and much interest was mani
tested in the proceedings. The eXer-
cises opened with an address by ex-
President ID. c. Bell, whose speech
was made up of the annual
reports already printed in the GLOBE.
The speaker reviewed the work done by
the association during the past year,
and stated that the outlook was encOur-
aging for the present year. General
words, in which he spoke of the great
good which had been done by the aSso-
citation, and cited several affecting Incl
dents.
c E. Dyer, the president of the asso-
citation, then introduced Rev. DR.. Nun
hall, the speaker of the evening, not as
man from the North, East, South or
West, but as man from the whole
country, doing Gods work. The great
head of the church, began the speaker,
never organized the various religious
denominations which now exist.
Jesus Christ organized no one church.
Religious denominations are of human
origin. but we should all understand that
we are working toward the same end
the saving of souls. One church does
work which another church cannot do.
and if it is not willing to
work on that basis it has no right to
exist. God has not limited His agencies
to the will of man; hence the various
denominations. 1t is not true that the
different churches are divided one
against the other because they
have different names or be-
of the field. We are in re-
ality one, for we are all working for the
same end. Now, l have met men in my
journey through life who hold that
Sunday schools are not necessary. To
such men [ feel like saying you are
hundred years behind the times,
my friend, and unless you hurry
and catch up, the procession
will push past you. Then there
are men who do not want to give any
thing to support foreign missions. You
can just set such men down as mean
and stingy, and men who love gold
young man population i'll the North
west, and [ am sorry to admit
that only about 25 per cent at
tend church. Well, if we cannot
get the young men to come to church
we must go out after them; and that is
just the way the Young Mems Chris
| tian associction was organized. 1t has
a right to and must live, for it brings
young men to Christ and helps them to
! battle with the devil. Business men
know that it is cheaper to con-
vert young man than to
hang him, and that is why our
business men uphold the Y. NJ. c. A.
Four-fifths of the patronage of the
saloons, gambling houses and brothels
is from the young men, and it therefore
stands to reason that when you get the
young men away from these places the
better off the city will be. The speaker
closed with strong plea for the estab-
lishment of more Young Mems Chris
tian associations.

after it had struck the ground
gradually nearing the earth:
until at last it disappeared behind
the housetops. The moment the bal
loon started up hundred vehicles were
rapidly driven in the direction of its
flight and kept pace with its move
mentS. The balloon itself fell upon
fence, just south of the Milwaukee
shops, and was uninjured. Prof. Bald
win alighted nearly mile further
away, coming down in clover field,
southeast of the Longfellow school.
His foot became entangled in the
netting of the parachute and he
was dragged some little distance, but
escaped without serious injury. A
carriage brought him to the city and he
was at the Nicollet last night. as ready
fascinating trip. He said he had made
the greatest ascent of his career and
was so high that the earth looked like a
smooth green carpet below him. His
fall, before the parachute distended,
was also great one and he was con-
siderably frightened at the time.
The manner of making the descent is
thus: AT the proper time, a jerk on the
valve rope rip Sa square aperture in the
top of the balloon. AT the same mo-
ment the aeronaut releases his hold on
the balloon and leaps off into space,
holding the ring of the parachute. The
latter is attached to the . balloon
by rope, which is broken by
balloon to descend, while the parachute
sails away with its burden. The ar
rangements are perfect, but the entire
performance is thrilling to degree and
requires nerve and courage possessed
by few men. There were few yester-
day who realized the great height at
tanned, but the aeronaut is positive. as
he took the measurement by barometer
before making the leap.

Company rs Inspection.

The annual inspection of Company /,
Minneapolis crack military company,
took place at Armory hall last evening
in the presence of large number of
spectators. Gen. Chris Brandt, of st.
Paul, reviewed the company. which was
commanded by Capt. Kidder. There
were forty-six men in line, and as the
roster shows but fifty-two this was con-
sidered very good showing. The in
spection was a creditable one, and the
boys did themselves proud. On the occa-
sion each member present received his

balloon had attained a height of over
1000 feet, drifting to the southeast be-
fore the wind. The ascent continued
with great rapidity until the cleaning
white figure of the aeronaut became
mere speck of dazzling white
ness against the deep blue sky.
In three minutes the greatest height
was reached, and the anerOid
barometer of the balloon showed an
altitude of nearly 5000 feet, or over a
mile and three-Quarters. Through the
hundreds of field-glasseS the aeronaut
could be distinctly seen, swinging back
ward and forward like a pendulum.
Suddenly he was seen to raise himself
up, and the next moment the balloon
rocked violently, and he launched out
into space. The crowd held its breath
as he shot rapidly downward, the large
parachute falling in a lump. He fell
like stone for nearly 200 feet, when
suddenly the parachute distended and
filled, and the downward flight was
gradually checked. Hanging by his
hands to the ring, the aeronaut slowly
fell toward the ground. lis body
vibrated fearfully, making great swings
of at least sixty feet, and at every vibra-
ton it seemed as though the parachute
must invert and its human freight
be dashed to the earth But
no such catastrophe happened.
Like a gigantic umbrella with
a small object clinging to the
handle, the parachute seemed to float
down from the vast height, but in reality
it swiftly descended, falling nearly
1000 feet minute, always keeping up
the frightful vibration, threatening to

MERELY LOOKING AROUND.
Canadian Pacific Officials Here,
and They DENY the 500 Deal.

and They Deny the 500 Deal.
Sir George Stephen. spreSident of the
Canadian Pacific road, and Sir Stephen
Mcdonald, c. w. Van Horne and J. G.
Farrar, officers of the road, all of Mont
real, were in Minneapolis yesterday,
and part of the time were clCseted with
officials of the $500" road. The meet
ing was secret one, and in answer to
all inquiries the various gentlemen all
replied that it signified nothing. The
gentlemen from across the line are
known to be heavy stockholders of the
Canadian Pacific road, and in view of
the recent deal between the Canadian
Pacific and the $780," it would seem
that their visit really means something.
"There has been no regular meeting
between the directors OF the officials of
the 500 road and the gentlemen from
Canada that | know Of" said Hon. G. III.
Petit, yesterday afternoon, when asked
for information in regard to the matter.
These gentlemen came down here to
look around, as | understand it, and the
fact that they are heavy stock owners
in the Canadian Pacific road has prob
ably given rise to rumOrs that they are
here to make some sort of deal with
the $500" road. There is nothing in
such rumOrs. The gentlemen are here,
as said before, simply looking around,
and tomorrow they go out on the Can
madam Pacific with some of the directors
of the 800" We have discussed freight
rates more or less with them, as a
natural consequence, considering the
fact that all our freight goes over the
Canadian Pacific road, but there has
been nothing done which would interest
the public"
1.-The rest of our party and myself"
said Mr.. Van Horne, ''are here on a
pleasure trip. There is no truth in the
statement that the Canadian Pacific has
bought controlling interest in the 500
road. A morning paper said to-day that
theCanadian Pacific had paid S14, ,0OO, 900
to MessrS. Washburn, Lowery ct al. for
the 500. would advise no one in this
city to sell these gentlemen groceries on
the strength of that statement. The
Canadian Pacific hasn't cents worth
of stock, bonds, scrip or anything else
belonging to the 500. We have effected
traffic arrangement with the 500, but
that is not exclusive. We are running
freight through to Boston now, and will
run passenger trains soon. This may
result in the establishment of new
line like the Blue line, the Diamond
line. and Others"
Sir Geo. Stephens said: "The Canadian
Pacific has not invested, nor does it in
tend to invest, single dollar in the
500 road. The reports of the sale are
absolutely without foundation, and |
can't imagine where they originated.
We are here simply to look over the
500 road, and to perfect traffic arrange
