LOWEST PuEM or IMITATION

flre elements seem 20 be--hrst, attention
and, secondly, reflex action producing
the like result without consciousness or
volition or intention; and, thirdly, as
negative element or condition, the absence
of any disturbing thought or idea of any
controlling vohton or intellectual direc-
tson.
OF such imitation we have instances in
the familiar infection Of gaping or yawn-
ing, or even Of laughter Merely to see
another cape often produces gaping in the
beholder-not often If occupied with Sc
rious thought, but more often if in a CON-
paratively unthinking mood.

Statutes of the United States, and assume
command of said schooner, its officers and
crew. numbering Is, and all and everything
excepting navigating the vessel, which

ceeding to some other than your port of des-
tination, in which event you are authorized to
assume full charge of the vessel. Everything
being in readiness, you will direct Captain
Thomas to make the best of his way to Sitka.
Upon arrival in that port you will report in

dressed the Black Diamond, her outfit and the
person of Captain Thomas and the mate Alex

A PECULIAR ACCIDENT.
The Balloon of an Aeronaut Bursts Without
His knowledge.

The Balloon of an Aeronaut Bursts Without
His knowledge.
CHARLOTTE, N. c., August 10.-At the
Mount Holly fair grounds, yesterday
afternoon, Prof. W. K. Perry, aeronaut OF
the American Balloon Company, was to
have ascended to height of three-quarters
of mile and then descend by the aid Of a
parachute. At 5-o'clock everything was in
readiness, and in the presence of ], 500 peo-
pie the balloon and aeronaut assembled.
When the balloon had travelled upward
about 700 feet the crowd discovered that it
had burst, and it Immediately began to
drop.
As Prof. Perry was holding on under the
parachute he was not aware of his terrible
situation. The crowd became frantic with
excitement Yells went up and pistols were
fired to attract his attention, but it was of
no avail. Soon all the gas in the balloon
was exhausted, and, twitching, jerking and
whirling, its fall became more rapid. It
was too late to release the parachute from
the wrecked balloon, and all came down
with terrible crash to the earth. The
crowd rushed round the unfortunate man
and every attention was given him, but for
20 minutes he did not move or show signs
of life. His fall is variously estimated at
from 100 to 400 feet.
Prof Perry was brought here and is be-
ing treated by the best medical skill in the
city. Many Of his bones are broken and
the physicians think it hardly possible that
he can recover.

GOLD In TIE BRICK.

The Peculiar and Fortunate Discovery Made
by Minnesota Manufacturer.
HASTINGS, MINI, Aug. 10.-William
Sondermann, brick manufacturer, having
noticed the appearance of gold in kiln of
brick, opened in his yard on Thursday, had
a sample OF the sand analyzed by St. Paul
chemist, with the resulting discovery of
"pay dirt" to the value OF Sc to the ton. The
expense of working the bed is comparatively
nothing, and Mr.. Sondermann will seek
wealth In the sand.

the polls there is imminent danger that
the ticket will be beaten. If. on the
other hand, every Republican does his
duty, the ticket will be elected by good
majority. To accomplish this the leaders
OF the campaign committee must see to
it that their lieutenantS in every pre-
cinct bring out the absentees. The
work that shall be done to-day in identi-
flying and hunting up Republicans from
the registry list. and tomorrow in get
ting them to the polls. will be the con-
dition of victory Tribune (Rep.).
With all the claim made upon the SUIT
frage of his fellow-citiZens by his Suc3
cess in the mayoralty Mr.. Roche would
have found a reelection difficult had he
stood by Bonfieid and his club. Bon
field was the foe of popular liberty.
His methods were harsh and deSpOtIc.
He was cordially hated. Mayor Har-
riSOn promoted and carried him and
found his mistake. Mayor Roche was
willing to take him, not exactly at his
own exaggerated estimate of his inn
pOrtance to the safety of society but
upon fair trial, He bore with him long
but he dropped him finally. When that
was done the bottom dropped out of
the Democratic campaign. The bring
ing of Palmer hither was rendered
foolish thereby. The old man was out
of ammunition. When he carried Chi
cago in November the Bonfield club was
H0urishlng. 1t is now welded for his
friend Cregier. The situation is utterly
changed. Palmer is embarrassed by
Sangamon wiser man. The 5000 ma
jority for Palmer will disappear in the
10000 majority for Roche.-Times Und.

Death of Rachel's Son.

The youngest son of the great actress
Rachel, NJ. Gabriel Felix, has Just died
at Congo, ill his forty-seyenth year. He
took up his residence Ill that distant
and insalubriOus region some years ago,
says Paris letter to the Philadelphia
Telegram, being lieutenant in the
navy, and having been stationed at
Congo by his own request.
He fought with great bravery in the
Franco-Prussian war, and was terribly
disfgured by wound. which put for
some time his life in danger, part of his
face having been carried away by the
explosion of shell. He lay at deaths
door for long time, and when he finally
recovered he fastened to hide his marred
viSage at distance from all who had
ever known him. He was engaged to
be married when the war broke out, but
the family of his betrothed, and the
young lady herself as we'll. insisted upon
caneellng the engagement after he got
we'll of his wound. Apart from his gal
ant bearing IN time of action, Lieuten-
ant Felix was not very estimable
young man. being dissipated and ex-
trayagant, so it is probable that his per-
sOnal habits had good deal to do With
the failure of his matrimonial projects.
Like his older brother, the son of Count
de WalewSki, he always cherished
fondly the memory of his gifted mother,
who was as tender parent as she was
great as an actress.

CURRENT COMMENT.

Now that his life is in peril, some of
the Republican papers are willing to
concede the many good qualities of DR..
Ames, and to admit that his death would
remove central Minnesota figure.
1t appears the veteran newspaper
man. r. NJ. Tuttle, of Mandan, is among
the victims of Yesterdays election. He
was OH the Republican ticket, and, as it
proved, the wrong one.
Bishop, the mind reader, will visit
the senate to-day during the discussion
of the meat inspection bill; but, if he
gets to reading minds. he should try
the lobby, and see if anybody is think
ing of the big four.
The Minneapolis Journal prints car
toon which represents Vice President
Morton as a money bag with dollar
mark for head. Now that election is
over. the Journal is willing to tell the
truth for once.
Chicago will fight and sweat all day
to-day, and put in tomorrow abusing
the successful candidate for mayor.
The anarchists will have elected him,
whoever he may be.
The Minneapolis Star wraps whole
halo of righteous virtue about it's small
self when it talks of legislative steals
and brides, and the halo is very becOm-
ing. 1t is like Hading veil over an
old maids features.
The hanging of the Barretts cost
about 900, which suggests that it
would be quite drain on the state if
all who deserved hanging got it.
DR.. Burrell, of Minneapolis. may
have been abrupt and unceremonious
in his handling of Christian science,
but his sentiments will meet general
approval. He had evidently read the
SUNDAY GLOBE.

QUICK WORK.

Those who think there is unbecoming
haste in eXtirpating Democrats from
the departments of the mail service
that control much patronage should re-
member that the order extending the
civil service rules over that province
has been deferred by the president
only to the LIST of May, and what is to
be done at all must be done quickly.
The partisanship shown in the case of
the railway mail superintendent is
notable in the fact that all the nine
Democrats were forced out, while the
two Republicans who remained during
all the CLEVELAND administration are
not disturbed. Indirectly, these agents
nave good deal to do with patronage.
The Republican who held over at Chi
cago had a dozen clerks, and their re-
