Tragic Termination of an Adver-
tised Amusement.
OswEao, N. Y, Sept. 2.-The 10000
persons in attendance at the Oswego
fair yesterday witnessed horrible ac-
cident. Professor John J. Frisbie, of
this city, was advertised to make a
balloon ascension and parachute jump,
and much interest was felt in it from the
fact of his residence being here. When
everything was in readiness and Pro-
fessor Frisbie was about to take his seat
on the trapeze of the big balloon, it in
some manner got away from those
holding it.
1t shot upward like a rocket and the
spectators were Mortified to see a man
who had been holding the ropes swept
off the ground and hang between the
parachute and the ground. When up
about 100 feet he attempted to drop,
but his feet caught in the rope and
turned him over, and he plunged head
long to the ground He struck on his
head and was instantly killed. His
name was John R. Woods, and he came
to see the fair from Union Square, this
count. He was &c years of age. The
balloon was recovered Frisbie will at
tempt to make another ascension this
afternoon,

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 3.--Eight of the
crew Of the British steamship Dun
murry, recently wrecked off Halifax,
have arrived in this city. Captain Nc
Moran, who has one arm broken and is
otherwise injured, tells this story of the
disaster:
The steamer left New York Aug. 26
for Antwerp, grain laden. She carried
a crew of nineteen. When the Dun
murry was two days ont, within $50
miles of Halifax, a terrific northeast
hurricane arose. Immediately it struck
the ship she was hove over on her beam
ends, AID worked herself over by de-
grees until at last she capsized, hurling
all hands, twenty-eight in number, into
the sea. Every life boat, save the after
one on the starboafd side, was gone and
tins one was half full of water.
Those of the crew possessing sufficient
presence of mind struck out and swan
for the boat. Eight, including Chief
Officer McKilbern and Chief Engineer
Gray, were lost, having either been
killed CT drowned among the debris.
With neither food nor water and with
twenty exhausted men Captain Nc
Moran guided the boat toward Halifax,
and after forty-eight hours of exposure
all were picked up by the oil tank steam
ship Hans and Kurt and landed at
Halifax,

Stanton. 1t is matter of devout
thanksgiving in Washington courtyard
all over the state that the states attor-
ney and the sheriff did work their de-
partments for all they were worth" and
that they summoned their witnesses
and kept them in attendance till their
services were wanted.
j. RS sweeping statement respect
ing the grand jury's work has no foun-
daton in fact. Among all the indict-
ments tried, there was but solitary
acquittal. Sometimes the jury disa-
greed, but in the majority of instances
there was agreement and conviction.
j. r.. knows that if counsel was en-
ployed by the states attorney, it was at
that officers expense, not the states.
He should be ashamed of this and every
other insinuation by which he seeks to
injure that fficer. 1t is apparent that
the real animus of j. RS attack lies in
the fact that each county official has
done his work too we'll and faithfully to
suit the Argus clientage. They have
been prosecuted to conviction, and
there is no escape for them. Hence
this wall. Judge Stanton has made a
brilliant record as prosecuting officer.
The court emphatically expressed its
appreciation of his course. No.work so
e. Eoa ha
orable time when Ex-Governor Dilling-
ham was states attorney. AS to the
cost, whatever that may be, the people
will cheerfully pay it and count it light.
They have for years been paying the
costs in taxes, in charities, in drink
bills, in misery, in crimes and in
misfortunes unnum5ered, entailed by
liquor selling and drunkard making and
will lightly regard small fraction of
this enormous aggregate to suppress
the evil. The Argus must not mistake
small minority in a packed village
meeting for the majority of the voters
of Montpelier. But even if every voter
in the town is on the side of the law
breaking, law-defying rum-power-
what of that? Around Montpelier is
Washington county, and beyond Wash
ington county is the state of Vermont,
and the state makes and enforces the
laws, and county and state insist that
Montpelier, the shire and the capital
shall obey the law and be purged OF
the unenviable reputation it has gained
But Montpeler's larger and better hall
of citizenshipis for law and order, ant
for stamping the illegal liquor traffic
out of existence. The work will bt
carried on by her people and will bt
carried to triumphant conclusion.

1t is useless to plead that the party
can succeed without the aid of New
York state. That is a mere boast
which has no basis in fact. New
York must be carried by the democrats
in order to make victory reasonably
certain. A split, therefore, in the
ranks of the New York democracy is
a s. rious continge ncy which might i'm.
peril the results of the canvass. And
that split is inevi able if the national
convention shall fix upon either of the
prominent democratic aspirants. If
Cleveland be chosen the followers of
Hill will sulk in their tents; if Hill be
chosen the followers of Cleveland will
use the opportunity to settle an old
feud. With either of these candidate s
there will be at the very best luke
warmness which is equivalent to OPP
position.
On the contrary, Western man
would allay existing irritation and go
far toward unifying and solidifying the
democratic party, 1t would also be a
deserved compliment to section of
the country which has earned its right
to recognition by pluck and enterprise.
For all reas ons, therefore, it would not
only be good politics, but an omen of
sure success to avoid the possibility of
disturbing side issues aud family quar-
rels and by selecting Western candi-
date open a.clear field for a fair fight on
the merits of the case.-N. Y. Herald.
