The balloon made it's ascent about
4:4O. and was in the air about 5 min
utes, It did not rise to a very high
point Ur go very far across the land.
From appearances the aeronaut WAS
not able to work the parachute and
the whole outfit settled to the earth
Every thing: moved off finely with
out hitch and no accidents.
A merry go.round was on hand and
did quite a business.
The program for today was an
nounced from the stand, and will be
exceedingly Interesting, Among the
attractions, Mr.. Crandall announced
that there would be a horseless car
rage.
We regret that punctuality will not
permit us to give today's program as
it occurred. s
