A NARROW ESCAPE.
The Balloon Too Lively for the Festive
Aeronaut.

The third time always succeeds is the
old saying and if it is true there will be
successful balloon ascension and para
chute jump from Peaks Island this
afternoon. Everything looked like
a successful ascension yesterday but as
the balloon started an accident happened
which came near being very serious for
the aeronaut. Lagrange. for that is the
name of the man who started to ascend,
goes up without being strapped to the
parachute as most of the performers are.
Yesterday the balloon started rapidly
and as it was about four feet high it gave
sudden lurch and in spite of the man s
exertions broke his hold ON the trapeze
and sent him flying to the ground while
the balloon sailed majestically upward.
The man struck the ground with great
force and turned a good many somer-
saults before he stopped. He picked
himself up and was not seriously hurt
but it was narrow escape. He will try
it again today, and Manager McCallum
says somebody will so up if he has to
glue himself to the balloon. The latter
made a beautiful ascent and landed in
the wafer between Peaks and Long
islands.

A GENUINE GORILLA COMING.
'Chiko," the wild Man." Who Fears
Only the Elephant-Who Tries to IaiA
and Who Believes in Medicine.


Unterrified by his keeper aud laughing
to scorn most every member OF the AMI
NAL kingdom, the big, ferocious gorilla
"Chiko," with the Barnum and Bailey
show, covers only before the elephant.
1t was lucky day for Felix Mcdonald,
the superintendent of the menagerle,
when he discovered the one thing that
could strike terror to the heart OF this
wild man of the woods" for he had
pulled overcoats, brushes and various
other articles into his iron-bound den,
and although coaxed with the toothsome
banana, which is Delmonico dish to
his untutored palate, yet Chiko held on
to his stolen possessions with the tenac-
ity of Missouri constable.
When getting ready for parade few
weeks ago, in Brooklyn, terrible COM
motion was heard in the gorilla's cage,
and investigation showed that he was
frightened at the elephants, who were
tethered near by, waiting to take their
place in the new street pageant. Now,
when it is desired to remove some article
his mischievous tendencies have led him
to appropriate, an elephant is brought to
the cage and made to stand by it. At
once Chiko rushes to the farthest corner
and utters piercing cries, and while held
there in terror Mr.. Mcdonald can do as
he pleases. Meanwhile the elephant
gazes placidly on the grinning demon,
apparently oblivious to the fact that he
is being used as a flaw and order socie-
ty." After the elephant is gone the
gorilla utters cries that SAVIOR of savage
joy, claps his stupendous hands and
gives other manifestations of relief.
This strangely human creature comes
from the western shores of Africa, where
he was captured when very young by
Antonio Markus, a Portuguese, who is
still his keeper. Markus talks the Port
uguese tongue to his ferocious charge
and insists that he understands every
thing said, and if implicit obedience is
proof, then Chiko certainly does, for he
minds better than many boys do. The
gorilla in turn makes the most amusing
efforts to talk to his keeper, and while
his vocal organs are said to be fully de-
veloped, yet he has little control of them
beyond some monosylIabic sounds, the
meaning of which, however, Markus says
he comprehends, and they talk to each
other as garrulously as would two old
fsherwomen of Hamburg. Chiko tells
his keeper when he is i'll, points out the
location of the pain, opens his great
| mouth, puts out his tongue for the tax
ing of medicine, and enjoys having his
brow rubbed when his head aches as
from the outside of the cage.
He is one of thousand and one new
features that will be exhibited here on
Monday next, July 18th.

The Mile Track.

'sMr. Griffin want to take off my hat
to you, said ''Hod" Nelson, after riding
around the mile track. 1T is a great
track"
Mr.. Griffin was delighted with the ver-
dict as returned by Mr.. Nelson, for what
Nelson says goes with Maine horsemen.
Then ''Jock'' Bowen, added his tribute
of praise to the great builder. ''Tye seen
about all the fast tracks," he said, land
this is the best.''

Guiding the great Nelson at the track

Orchard until the stable is ready for

there within few days. In short time
there will be the best appointed grounds
in the country there, as well as the best
track.
ALI interested are satisfied that Mr..
Griffin has kept his word. He promised
to build the fastest track in the country,
and all the horsemen say that he has
done it.
