Owing to Lack of air It Would
Not Rise High Enough for the
Parachute Drop.
Prof. Craig made a commendable at
tempt to make the promised balloon as
cent and parachute leap yesterday.
During the afternoon close upon 5000
people assembled on East Seventh
street. near Mendoza, and patiently
waited two hours for the ascension to
take place. A strong northeast wind
was blowing, and the long delay was oc-
casi0ned by the care required to he ex-
erciSed in preventing the balloon taking
fire. The ascent was made shortly
after 5 o'clock, amid wild yells of de-
light But it was quickly seen that
there was something wrOng-the balloon
had not peen properly charged with hot
air, and as consequence would not rise
above few hundred feet. The wind
blew the balloon several blocks and
Prof. Craig, seeing that it was impossi-
bic to make the drop, cut the parachute
loose and landed safely on Margaret
street. He fell about twenty feet aud
was uninjured. Before cutting loose
from the balloon the professor barely
escaped colliding against house. Prof
Craig expressed considerable regret
that he was unable to carry out the ex-
hibition. The fault was, however, not
his or that of the Ezra Kendall COM
pany, with which he is affiliated. Every
effort was made to get the balloon filled
with air, and the failure was entirely
owing to the difficulties under which
they were compelled to work.

Buchan Spends a Day With Elias
McKean

George R. Buchan, the slayer of An
dersOn at Minneapolis, was in Saltwater
yesterday as the guest of Elias Mexican,
one of the most prominent and repuJa-
bic capitalists of the valley. 1t was Nc
Kean who secured Buchan's bondsmen.
While in Montana last year Mexican
happened to meet Buchan at Great
Falls and became very fayorably i'm
pressed with his appearance and char
acter, and the two parted OH a brief ac-
Quaintance very good friends. The
next thing that Mr.. Mexican heard of
Buchan was through reading the
GLOBES account of the shooting. u
was sick then," said Mexican, 'but |
got up and went to Minneapolis. L
thought it would be first-class policy to
get such name on the bond as that OF
William R. Marshall, and l got it,"
Buchan, when asked about his case,
said that no newspaper had yet told ex-
actly what his defense would be, but
that he had no doubt of his acquittal.
He goes to Iowa to-day for visit, and
will return when wanted by the court.
Fred Douglas, the convict who made
such clever escape from the state
prison Monday. is still at large. He is
without doubt The young man whom
Deputy Sheriff Marty met about 4

later in the day, stopped at the house of
Mr.. Wltham, in Marine town, and asked
for something to eat. Still later he
called at the house of John Elmquist, in
Marine, and secured supper. Al
though these traces of him have been
discovered, Douglas has thus far eluded
capture.

RELIGION IN POLITICS.
Illinois Lutherans Seek Control
of the Legislature.

of the Legislature.
CHICAGO, May l3.-The first move in
the Lutheran church plan to enter poll
tics, for the purpose of attacking the
compulsory education law, was made
yesterday. when ex-County Commits
sioner Senne announced himself as
candidate for state senator. At the
recent meeting of the Lutheran synod
at Springfield 1t was determined to put
up candidates for the legislature in GER
tain districts where the Lutheran
church is the strongest, pledged to vote
for repeal or modification of the law.
The particular clause aimed at Is the
one requiring that all the common
branches be taught in the English
language, and this is the one which the
church desires to have stricken
out. Mr.. Senne said yesterday
that the Lutherans would try to
nominate and elect members OF the leg
islature in number of northern dis
trictS, hoping to elect enough mem bers
pledged to modification of the COM
pus0ry education law to control the bal
ance OF power in the legislature and force
their point. The Lutherans are almost
all Republicans, but III this they expect
the aid of the German Catholics. who
are largely Democrats, and between the
two forces it is thought half dozen
districts can be carried.
