BALLOONS IN WAR.
Noted Duel Between Aeronauts in the
 Franco-Prussian War.

The announcement that the balloon is destined to play Q role in the pres ent war with Spain recalls the aero nautic experiments made by the French during the great war of 1870 and1S71. As early as 1792 balloons were used for military signaling in France. But, in our times, during the siege of Paris by the German troops frequent attempts were made by Frenchmen to Scommunicate with those inside the beleaguered city, and to dispatch men and matter from the capital by means Of balloons. In Paris i-sslf, under
 the direction of Postmaster Ramport, 2 balloon post and transport service was established to carry persons and governmental as well as priva.e mail matter from the besieged city. Among the public men leaving the city in this way NJ. Gambetta will ever be rene m bered Homing pig ons were also sent by this route to carry news back to Paris 4 total Of sixty-six balloons according to Tissiandiar's 'En Balloon Pendant la Siege de Paris" left the besieged city, and 16S persons, 10,19f kilograms of postal matter, including 3,000,000 letters, 363 homers, five dogs and two boxes of dynamite, were dis patched by the aerial route. Of the balloons B descended in France, five in Belgium, two in Germany and one
Arizona republican., 1898-07-12

in Norway Only five of them were captured by the Germans, and two were never heard of, having been lost in the ocean.
 @Of all the voyages of that time, however, none could compare, for ex- citing and perilous incidents, with that of the well known aeronaut, M. Nadar, who left Tours for Paris with important government dispatches at 6 o'clock one fine December morning. At Il he was in view of the capital on the Seine. While floating about 5000 meters above Fort Charenton, Nadar suddenly observed second balloon on the horizon. Thinking it to be one leaving Paris, the French aeronaut at once displayed the -tricOlor of his country, and the other balloon re- sponded by exhibiting the same flag. Gradually the two balloons approach ed one another, being drawn in the same direction by the same current of air. When they were separated by only a short distance several explo- sions were heard; the stranger had commenced to fire shots at Nadar's balloon, the "Intrepido," which began to descend rapidly. The French flag had by this time been replaced in the other balloon by the Prussian colors. The Parisians, who were watching the affair from the forts below, and who now realized the true character and object of the last arrival, cried out that their plucky compatriot was lost But they were mistaken. Nadar had scrambled from the car up the network of his airship after the first shot from the enemy to stop hole made in the tissue. Presently he descended to the car as the balloon righte6 itself, and, throwing out a quantity of ballast, caused it to rise higher and higher. Then, seizingo his rife, he fired shots with rapid succession into the Prus- sian. which suddenly split and sunk to the earth. On reaching the ground, a detachment of Uhlans, who had been watching the combat from the plain, picked up the German aeronauts and rode off to the Prussian outposts. Nadar then alighted. in. safety within the girdle of the Paris forts, meeting with an enthusiastic reception for his victory in the first balloon duel-Bal- timore Sun.

LIEUT.. BLANDIN IN AN ASYLUM

Baltimore, July 11.-Lieut- John J. Blandin, who was officer of the watch on the Maine when she was blown up in Havana harbor on February 15, was removed from his home, Notch Cliffe, near this city, to the Sheppard Asy- lum. His mind has never recovered from the terrible shock and strain caused by the disaster He talks con- tinually of the lost ship and his con- rades who perished on her. At times his mind Is filled with queer fancies and delusions. Upon his return home, a month after the disaster, he was or dered to the Baltimore Photographic office, and later to the Brooklyn navy yard, where he was placed in charge of the electrical department He was anxious to go into active service again.

The London Times, remarking editorially how lit tie disturbance the war has caused to the interests of neutrals and how ad- mirably and couraeously it has been conducted by both Americans and Spaniards, setting an example of hu- manity." expresses the hope that the same spirit will be observed when peace is arranged, saying: There could be no more honorable ending to a war which both sides have waged in ways creditable to them than a set clement which should disprove the charge that the modern conqueror drives harder bargain with his foe than was common in times when war was less humane"

 MT. Keith thought it not improbable that MT. Perry would go to Sable Is- land in the hope that some member of his family had f1oated there or been picked up by a fisherman and landed there MT. Keith said he thought the intention cf MT. Perry was to talk with as many of the survivors as possible and learn all he could of the incidents of the wreck in the hope that some member of his family might be saved. It is not impossible that more ot the passengers of La Bourgogne were saved than were brought to Halifax by the Cromartyshire. The collision
 was in a thick fog, so. heavy that ii was impossible to see the width of a vessel. When the ship sank a great deal of woodwork from the deck must have foated, and probably some of the

WAINWRIGHT A FIGHTER.
Country Rings With Praises of inc
 Brave Officer.

Washington, July 11.-No commit nifty, more than Washington, can claim right to rejoice over the splen- did achievement of Lieut. Commander Richard Wainwright He was born in Washington, and many years of his life have been spent here. The whole coun:,v sabg s.th bis heTolc participation in the destruction of the Spanish fleet, especially in his combat with the two torpedo-boat destroyers, Fulton and Furor. The feat was more than the annihilation Of two of the enemy's ships, it was a demonstration to the naval world at large of the helplessness of that kind of boat be fore the we'll directed guns of Amer ican seamen.
 For the last three years Lieut.. Commander Wainwright has resided the most of the time in Washington. A modest, unassuming man, gentle manly in all his relations, and thor oughly versed in everything that per tafns to his chosen profession of naval warfare.
 On returning from his last long long cruise he was made chief Of the bureau of naval intelligence. That office demanded complete information of the naval strength and equipment of all the nations, and subsequent events demonstrated how fully Lieut.. Wainwright performed his duties. Probably no other man was better in formed in this particular line than he when the first rumors of war with Spain were heard
 Weeks before the Maine left for Havana the navy department began to prepare for war. The plan of naval campaign in Cuba, which was followed in most details after war had been de clared, was made by Lieut.. Command CT Wainwright and submitted to Sec retary Long. When the Maine was ordered to Havana Lieut. Commander Wainwright was detached from the head of the bureau and assigned to duty IS executive officer of that bat tleship. Having served there till the Maine was destroyed, he came back to Washington, and for several weeks was Secretary Longs right-hand man. When $50, 1000, 900 had been appropri- agted for the national defense and the government had decided to send abroad for the purchase of ships and war SuppileS, lAlSuC- OOIuIQduueI w dIu- wright was of the greatest service, because he knew just where ships and materials were obtainable and what they ought reasonably to cost
 After the declaration of war, when the yacht Corsair had been purchased and converted into ship of war, he was assigned to command her, and has been in Cuban waters since that time. His destruction of the two torpedo boat destroyers and the rescue of Ad- miral Cervera justifes the confidence that the department has placed in him. The press dispatches show that this duel between the Spanish craft and the Gloucester was the most thrilling of the entire engag, ment The Gloucester was damaged by the shot directed at her. but returned the fire with marvellous accuracy, showing a dogged determination not to allow the Spaniards to escape. The courage of her commander in the; face of the tre- mendous odds was finally reward d for the terrible fire from the destroy CTS slackened and a cheer went up f om the Gloucester, as it was seen that they were burning.

Of his career. His mantle fell upon
 the present Spanish admiral, to whom Spain has looked with such confidence. Cervera is now 65 years of age He
 was born in the province of Jerez,
 where his father, Carlos de Cervera,
 was a man of large wealth, owning
 several estates, and was known as cne of the richest wine merchants of Span.
 Cervera's mother was Marie POrpete, daughter of Count Porpete y Velle of
 the royal family of Spain. They be-
 longed to the aristocratic class, and
 their son was afforded all the advan- tages which wealth and position could
 secure for him in Spain. He entered
 the naval academy at San Fernando
 when IS years of age, and graduated
 three years later, in 1854, and was af-
 terwards attached to several different
 training ships to prepare him for na-
 val. warfare. In 1859 he experienced his first campaign in the expedition sent out by Spain against Morocco and for his services was promoted to first lieutenant He was next attach
 ed to an expedition sent out by Spain
 to Cochin China, in 1862. Afterward
 he was attached to the Spanish 1ega-
 ton in Washington, and subsequently
 made a captain in the Spanish navy
 and placed in command of ship and sent to Peru, where war was in pro-
 gross. He remained there but a short time, when the ten years war in Cuba broke out, and Spain found it neces- sary to recall her fleet from Peru in order to engage in a blockade of Gu ban ports, to prevent the landing Ot filibustering expeditions, which were
 carrying supplies to the Cubans in that struggle.
 During the progress of the ten
 years war Cervera was recalled from Cuba and made secretary of the navy
 in the Spanish cabinet When he again
 entered active service in the navy he
 was created an admiral and placed in
 command of Pelayo, the first and only 1 first class battleship in the Spanish l navy. Its construction was under taken and carried out under his sug- gestions. He has been adjutant to the
 queen regent, and several years ago was at the head of the Spanish naval commission sent to London to confer with similar commissions from other European powers regarding marine matters. He bears fifteen medals, be slowed upon him by the Spanish gov ernment, and Spain counts him as he1 1 foremost naval man. His promotions
 however, have usually come by reason
 of his family connections, and through | the influence of his uncle, Admira' Torpete, rather than merit, although he has at times shown himself pos sessed of ability, which must be recog-
 nized even though he be an enemy and his long experience has increased his efficiency at the present time.
 Cervera, however, is generally great ly disliked by the men under him. He
 is accused of being the most cruel tc his men and treating them without
 any show of feeling and his charac- ,eristics are those of the average blood thirsty Spaniard. He is described as
 naughty, insolent and overbearing in his manner, and difficult of approach
 and entirely different from Admiral
 Camara, whose manners are more af- fable, due to the fact that his mother was an English woman.-Washingt Star

A SIGNIFICANT FEATURE.

Ministers Of the gospel in North Caro-
lima have, as rule, taken no part in
partizan politics. Now and then one
has been chosen to office, but usually
some local reason accounted for it.
When nothing more has been involved
than struggle for supremacy between
political parties the pulpit has obsery-
ed a dignifed silence.
When prominent ministers speak out
on political matters, therefore, it will
be found that something more is ut
stake than mere party triumph. We re-
Gently printed an utterance from Rev. O.
L. Struggled which arrested public at
tention everywhere; some time ago the
Rev. Jesse ii. Page gave his views Of
the situation in Eastern Carolina and
again today we print a letter from him.

Other ministers have spoken to similar
purpose.
These things support the contention
that we have made all along, viz: that
the Democratic party is making Il fight
for civilization and morality, not for Of
flee. Its triumph means such conduct
of public affairs as will protect and re-
ward virtue and discountenance and pun
ish vice. No one knows better than the
Christian minister that the ascendency
of the ignorant and vicious element of
the citizenship does not tend to foster
a clean and wholesome civic body, and it
is to his credit as "A minister as we'll as
his privilege as a citizen, that he should
speak out boldly against such ascend
ency.
Mr. Page knowing, as he says, of
negro constables and deputy sheriffs
serving writs ON white men and WHITE
LADIES and sometimes arresting them
and bringing them FOR TRIAL TO
NEGRO DENS. BEFORE IGNO-

all good men by denouncing a condition
that makes such things possible and
placing the responsibility where it be-
longs

"A POLITICAL GAMBLING SHOP"

The only answer that the fuslonists
can or will make to the exposures Oh
their infamy is the puny charge OF
.eDemocratic lie." There has been no
more pertinent or truthful characterize
tion of the fusion legislatures than the
following, made by Capt. ]. =. Eaves,
for years a leader among Republicans.

WITH EACH OTHER. Senator But
Ter complained that the Republicans got
about 100000 more out Of fusion than
the Popnlists. Did you ever hear the
like of that before!
This is the fusion record as seen by
Republican Is there any hope that II
the fusionists get the legislature this fall
ii will be an improvement on the last
two? On the contrary it will be worse,
If possible. Their campaign is an open and
avowed fight for spoils; the deals and
dickers. the trading and selling, have
been done in broad daylight and in ut
ter contempt alike of decency and the
wishes of the more respectable elements
Of the Populist and Republican parties.
With such a beginning there is no room
to doubt what the end viii be. II the
next Legislature is fusion, then may the
State expect a sixty-days orgie Of the
most shameless looting that ever brought
a blush to the cheek of the citizen. The
fusionist has cast off all disguise. He
is fighting in the last ditch. If he should
win, then the Legislature Of 1899 will
not only be political gambling shop,
but an arena where whatever is fairest
and best in. the present interests and
future prospects of the State will be
ruthIessly sacrificed to the rapacity Of
the scalawag and the negro. IL control
of the Law making machinery is gained
ms Tune, the purpose anu Hi'en'ioh -
the fusionists is to stop at nothing that
will insure control for years to come.
Let the good citizen not deceive him
self. The power for evil Of Legislature

gence, the probity, the patriotism or the
material interests of the State Is. meal
culable. If the fusionists win, that is
what the next Legislature win be. II
will take the State a quarter of a cen

out the stigma of it. This has been
taught North Carolinians by the bitter
humiliation of an experience that should
not need to be repeated.
