NO ASCENSION.
B Laroe Crowd Meets disappointment at
Columbia Park.

B Laroe Crowd Meets Disappointment az
Columbia Park.
The balloon ascensions and parachute leaps
advertised for the picnic Of the Independent
Social Club at Columbia Park on Saturday
proved failures, to the disappointment Of a
great throng of people Mons. Roberto was
TO have made an ascension at 10 a. m, but
while filling the balloon with hot air no CON
cluded it was not safe to continue, as the
winds were strong and there was danger Of
the side of the balloon being
blown against the flame from tho
stack inside which would be attended
by destruction of the balloon and probable
death of the young man at work in it during
the process Of filling. Nine. Grace Roberto
was announced for an ascension and leap in
the afternoon. The balloon was filled and
Nine Roberto went up with it on the para
chute, but after the airship reached height
of about forty feet it wavered an instant and
then slowly decended. It looked as if the
aerouant would land on the fence
at the northern side Of the park
/ and she screamed for help cal
| ling upon the spectators to save her from
striking the fence. Fortunately the descent
was made few feet from the obstruction
Mime. Roberto was thrown at length upon her
left side. As she landed her husband re-
leased the parachute, which was still closed
from the balloon and the latter went soaring
high in the air and over the dirt banks in a
uortheasterly direction. 1t fell in the brush
few yards north of the Lehigh Valley
railroad When Nine Roberto was assisted
to her feet she was suffering from shock
but soon recovered. Later she stated that the
fall had caused a bruising Of her body on the
left side, from foot TO shoulder. In explain
ing the second failure the aeronaut said that
the stack used to fill the balloon had become
partly choKed with dust and ashes. As IL re-
suit the balloon was filled with smoke and not
sufficient heat to sustain the weight of the
aeronaut The management of the picnic
refused to pay Mons. Roberto, as the written
contract provided forfeiture by the latter
in case Of failure to make the ascensions.
One to five applications of Doan's Ointment
will cure the worst case of Itching Piles there
ever was. Can you afford to suffer tortures
when simple, never-failing remedy is al
hand? 1t never fails.
