Aeronaut Hobe,s Frlghtrnl Fnll.

ST. PAUL, Aug live thousand people
at Inver grove, just south of this city, We're
the Mortified spectators of terrible fall to
death Of Professor Hobe, the aeronaut.
When the balloon reached the usual alti-
tude Hobe could be seen Juggling at the
valve cord, which would not work. Before
he could manipulate it the balloon was at
least 5000 feet above the earth. In the
regular way he cut loose the parachute and
shot rapidly earthward, but to the horror
Of the crowd the parachute did not expand,
and the unfortunate aeronaut fell like a
shot toward the ground. SO great was the
force of the fall that he was driven in the
soft ground to depth Of ten feet and in
stantly killed. 1t required the work Of an
hour to reach the body.
