HANLoN AND o'CoNNoR WON.

The Doublc-Scull Championship of the
World.
HAMILTON, ONT. Aug. S-The double
scull race for the championship of the world
came off here this evening between Hanlon
and O'Connor, and Gaudaur and Mckay. The
water was without a ripple. The crews got
away together, Hanlon and mate sculling
thirty-six strokes to the minute, the other pair
thirty-fve. After 300 yards had been covered
Hanlon and O'Connor began to draw away
from their opponents, whom they led by over
q length when mile had been covered. Here
the leaders dropped to thirty strokes to the
minute, while Gaudaur and Mckay were still
pulling hard atthirty-fve. At the mile and
a-half buoy, which was reached in s:35. Hanlon
and O'Connor made beautiful turn, while the
losers in the race made very poor one, losing
fully boat length in doing SO. On the home
stretch the leaders did not exert themselves
much, and when within quarter of mile
of the finish they stopped rowing and
Hanlon dipped his hand in the water.
The losing crew were still pull
ing hard at their old pace and managed to
gain couple of lengths by this maneuvre on
the part Of the Toronto crew. The result,
however, was unchanged, and Hanlon and
OConnor arrived at the finish winners by
fully four boat lengths in 16:263.
There was much disappointment because
the record was not broken. 1t was generally
believed that the winners could have made
new record IL they had been pushed

A BALLooNIsT KILLED.

Thrilling Scene Witnessed by Large
Crowd of People.
LONDON, Aug S.--A balloon accident oc-
Cured to-day at Leeds by which balloopist
and parachutist named Higgins was killed,
and young woman, Miss Devoy had
narrow escape from death. The ascent of
the couple was watched by quite large num-
ber of people, and when the balloon was re-
leased it rapidly scared upward amid the
cheers of the crowd. A crossbar was at
tached to the balloon, and 1t was the intention
OF the couple to give trapeze performance
when they had reached sufficient height and
afterward to descend by means of para
chute. After the balloon had risen a short
distance it was caught in current of air and,
while still ascending, drifted sideways until it
struck telegraph pole.
The couple were sitting on the bar, and
when the balloon struck the pole the bar
swayed to and fro in frightful manner,
threatening at every moment to throw them
to the ground. Miss Dewey, thinking 1t
would be safe to drop from the bar before she
was thrown from it, lowered herself by her
hands, hung for moment and then let go.
The height from which she dropped was not
great, and she landed on the ground unhurt.
Released from her weight the balloon swung
upward, and as 1t did SO, Higgins, who still
retained his place on the bar, became en-
tangled In the telegraph wires, and in flash
he was swept off the bar and fell, twisting
and turning, upon fence. He struck on his
back and received such terrible injuries that
he died after suffering for few moments
from the most intense agony

A CURT DENIAL.
Semi-Ohicial Statement About Emperor

Semi-Oficial Statement About Emperor
Williams Health.
Copyrighted by Associated Press.
BERLIN, Aug. 8.-For the first time since
the French press began transcending its pre-
vious record of scandalous mendacites about
Emperor William, the Government has
deemed it necessary TO issue semi-official
notice regarding alarmist reports about the
Emperor's health. No German newspaper
had gone beyond alluding to ridiculous
stories of the Emperors epipletic fits, brain
disorders, purulent Inflammation of the ears,
and lot of other maladies ascribed to the
most active working chief of Government in
the world.
A semi-oficial communication made public
tonight curtly denies, as without foundation,
the reports alleging that the Emperor was in
ill-health. The communication specially de-
clares false the report that German tele-
graph official was sent to conduct the ex-
change of cipher kilograms.
The royal yacht Hohenzollern, bearing the
Emperor William, arrived at Kiel at $50
O'Clock this evening. The Emperor did not
go ashore, but remained on board the vessel,
which he will make his headquarters for the
present.
The report of DR.. Leuthold, who has been
attending the Emperor, is that the injury to
his limb is SO rapidly approaching to cure
that he will probably be able to have partial
use of his leg and foot within a week.

floor. The desparado seized 81 900 and started
