FOOLHARDY AERONAUT
Goes Up at Auburn With Balloon or
Fire-SafeIy Descends.

Auburn. Me, Aug. 17.-At Lake
Grove, late Saturday afternoon, Aero
naut Ford Stevens made a most reck-
less balloon ascension. The balloon was
about half filled with gas, when it
caught fire. Stevens, seeing the air
vessel was to be destroyed, ordered his
assistants to cut it loose, and he took
hold of the trapeze suspended from the
balloon, and with his parachute under
his arm sailed toward the clouds.
The great crowd of people present eX-
pected to see him dashed to death, but
at height of about 500 feet, when the
balloon was nearly burned, Stevens cut
the parachute loose, and when it filled
he gracefully sailed to the earth. Ste
vens, who belongs here, has made
many balloon ascensions, and is one of
the most daring aeronauts in the coun-
try.
