ROAD RESORT.
NATIVE SONS.
Twenty-Three Cars of People Went
to Stockton

The Native Sons of Sunset and Sacra-
mento Parlors made the town ring yes
terday morning with their parade and
preparations for departure for Stockton
to celebrate Admission Day.
Although the hour at which they de-
parted was comparatively an early one,
many gathered in the streets to witness
the parade and cheer the Native Sons
and Native Daughters on their way. The
delegation was accompanied by the
Militant Band and the Capital Drum
Corps, who nearly raised the roof of
the depot by their stirring music while
waiting the departure Of the trains.
Sixteen passenger coaches and a bag
gage car stood on the track, constituting
the first Of the special trains chartered,
and bore away Sacramento ParlOr and
it's guests at 7:30 o'clock
An hour later Sunset Parlor and it's
friends filled the second train, which
consisted of seven coaches. Altogether,
at least 1000 Sacramentans must have
gone to the Slough City to join in the
celebration, and it is safe to say that
on their arrival.
A telegram was received yesterday
evening at the railroad office, desiring
that eight empty coaches be sent down
from here, as the greater part of the
visitors to Stockton intended to come
here and take in the State Fair before
returning to their homes, so that it is
probable that to-day will see our streets
thronged with a greater crowd Of vis-
itors than ever.

SOUTH AFRICAN LIONS.

South African lions are, beyond uues-

The principal danger IN captive work
is the always present possibility Of the
wire rope parting. not because of the
obvious result thai the balloon, being
set free. would at Oh. nske off at speed
but for reasons Of very simple technical
nature, albeit none the more pleasant by
reason of their simplicity. 1t must be
understood that when IA captive balloon
has been sent up the required height, the
neck of the balloon has to be tied up So
as to prevent the wind from eXerting II
pressure ON the envelope and forcing
ont the gas. which would result in the
balloon very shortly losing its lifting
power and descending. In free runs the
neck must always be wide open, for
otherwise any sudden expansion Of gas
might burst the balloon. Hence if Il
captive breaks away it is bound to make
an unduly rapid ascent, since it is sud
denly released from the restraint as well
as the weight Of the wire rope.
OF course IN such an emergency the
gas would ut once commence 10 expand
furiuusly. and unless the neck of the
balloon were instantly opened and kept
open the envelope would inevitably
burst. In the shocking accident at the
Crystal palace III 1892, when poor Dale
and his comrades lost their lives, the
balloon was started with too much lift
and commenced to rise with undue ra-
pidity. Dale the aeronaut, realizing he
danger, opened the neck and in his anX-
iety to see that ii was clear looked into
IT, and 1t Is supposed that his head
checked the outrush of heated gas, with
the result that the envelope instantly
burst, with terrible results. -Macmil-
