His Balloon Collapses When 400 Feet
in the Air.

Sterling, Ills, Aug. SIC. Simmond,
young aeronaut of Evansville, Ind.
was fatally injured last night by a fall
from his balloon, while making an
ascension at this place In the pres
ence OF 5000 persons the monster bal
loon, with car and parachute equip
ment attached, shot up into the air. A
cheer followed the intrepid aeronaut,
but died on the lips of the spectators
when, with a resounding clap, the big
gas bag exploded. The balloon was 400
feet in the air when this happened, and
IT began to descend rapidly.
Stmmond, with rare presence of mind.
desperately endeavored to cut the para
chute away from the debris, but though
he succeeded the umbreIla-shaped con
trivance did not have time to open and
thus break the fall. Man and parachute
shot down to the earth with terrific ra-
pldfty- Hundreds sickened at the sight
and many women tainted as the man
struck the ground with a thud. He
was carried senseless to the hotel. Ply
sicians examined him and found serious
internal injuries and a fracture of the
spine.

PARK CITY Mines
SOLD YESTERDAY
Jupiter Company Surrenders Its
Property to c. E. Street.
LOCATEDNEAR CRESCENT
PROSPECT THAT GROUND WILL
CHANGE HANDS AGAIN.

4 deal Of more than passing signifi-
canoe was closed in this city yesterday
when Charles +. Street, g heavy owner
IA the old Jupiter Mining company OF
Park city, sent over the wires to Coun-
Gil Bluffs, Ia, sum of money that
was exchanged in the banks at that
end Of the line for enough stock 10 give
him practically sole ownership of the
property. The total number. Of shares
in the corporation is 10000, and all but
a very few thousand are now held BY
Mr.. Street, who has been in charge Of
and manager Of the property since its
incorporation twenty years ago.
The deal has been pending for several
weeks and that il has been closed on
preparing to deliver the property to
some one else. In fact, he acknowl-
edged during the afternoon that two
or three different combinations were
after it and he expected that a turn
would be made during the next few
weeks, though h. declined TO disclose
the identity OF those who were negoti =
ating for it previous to the clinching of
q bargain.
The figure at which Mr.. Street Sc
cures the Jupiter property from his old
associates could not be learned, but
that a good round sum was involved
may be inferred from the fact that it
consists OF seventeen patented claims.
six Of which adjOin the possessions of
the California and Apex Mining COM
panies. while the remaining eleven are
in one group on the main Crescent
ridge and above the Silver King and
keystone.
The property has produced many
thousands of dollars worth of high
grade ore. and mining experts and en-
Rineers have expressed the opinion that
it covers big chunk Of the main ifs
sure or mother lode of the district.
Into whose hands this magnificent
property is going TO land is yet prob
lematical. Mv. Street declares.

MINES OF TINTIc.
Lorin Morrison Talks of Ajax, May
Day and Other Properties.

Lorin n. Morrison the well known
mining operator, returned from Tintic
yesterday morning, after having inspect
ed several properties in which he is
interested as a shareholder. He re-
ports having taken in the May Day,
Yankee and Ajax, as well as some of
Ihe other bOnanzas. and returns with
mis- faith strengthened i'm very one of
them. Mr. Morrison brought back some
samples of the lead-silver ore recently
struck IN the LOCO level OF the Ajax
and. while the report telephOned in
yesterday by Superintendent Nebeker
was TO the effect that there was now
six feet Of ore between walls and that
the chute had been penetrated for
twenty feet, ne said that il was more
either side. You can say for me, q"
said Mr. Morrison, that after inspect
inE the 1000 level of the Ajax, I am pre-
pared to say that every report given
out by Manager Weir has been very
conservative. indeed. There has never
been a disclosure on that level that
ne has not under rather than overes-
TINA ted. The new strike is a fine one
and I am sure they have not the least
conception yet of how big it will prove
10 be.
At the May Day Mr. Morrison was
also treated to a surprise. The mine
was revelation to me- he said, for
I never SuSpeCted for a moment that
there was anything like the showing
which the mine has. 1 have no hesi-
fancy in saying. now that 1 have seen
it for myself, that the May Day is a
bio mine"
At the Yankee Mr.. Morrison found
the Wine on the Humbug side down
within about twelve or fifteen feet of
the point where it viii connect with
the Yankee tunnel when it has been
driven about twenty-fi five feet further
snd. at the present rate. he says. Su-
perintendent Guenther viii easily make
predictions good that connections will
be made by SeTt. Is.
OF the Uncle Sam he said there was
no occasion TO speak as the mine was
talking for itself, as was also the Ca
risa, which he passed but did not en-
ter. All the mines. he said were Civ
ing a fine account of themselves and

ITALY is ALARMED.
Worried Over Triumph of Anarchists
in Labor Elections.

New York, Aug S1.--A dispatch to
the Journal and Advertiser from Rome
says: The complete triumph of the
anarchists in the recent election to the
Rome labor council is causing alarm in
government circles. This is the first
time the anarchists openly contested
against the socialists, with the result
that the council stands with two an
archists to three socialists
But a more serious fact is that all
the societies of workmen which partici-
pated in the voting qualified as anarch-
ists socialists or republicansn; not a
single monarchial workman appeared
on the list. This demonstrates clearly
that the entire working population of
Rome. like that of the other large cities
in Italy, has completely abandoned the
monarchial party.
Leading newspapers seriously COM
ment on this. The Secolo says: IF all
the working classes of Italy have be-
come socialists. anarchists or republic
cans. where are we to find defenders OF
the monarchy"
