GREEK FIRE AND PYROTECH-
MICS THIS EVENING.

The Faganites, recently organized as
the New Ida" movement as a county or
ganization, left this city this morning for
an outing to Witzel's Point View Grove.
They made splendid demonstration. All
were carrying national flags. No effort
had been spared to make it an unusual
demonstration. 1t was. But some peo'
pie are saying: How many free tickets
were distributed?'' 1t is known that Fa-
gan Association tickets were going a-beg-
ging. The files of twelve We're net till-
ed. People who lined the streets to wit
ness the procession, composed of women
and children, said there We're over 1000
tened to figure the number of men in a
passing procession figured it out at LOTS.
There were "a files. supposed to be of
twelve men each. If every file had re-
ceived its full quote this would have
brought the number up to I12S, but sub
tracing at least 90 from the files that
were not completely filed and the abb
sentees would make up nearly the miss
ing men in Line.
The Faganites took good care to keep
the regulation distance between the
lines, said an old observer of political
outings. sit took but t%urteen minutes
for the Faganites to pass the City Hall
this morning. 1t took twenty-three min
utes for the Dickinson's Association to
pass that point last year on the occasion
of their last annual outing. 1t took the
DAVIS Association nearly an hour to
pass a given point at their annual demon
stration last year.
That is fight between the political
warriors of associations who have parad-
ed in the past years. 1t is not one for
the Democrats to politically consider.
: Everyone knows just where the Demo-
crafts are going to land. They are watch
ing the efforts of George L. Record to
disrupt Tie tTtttAc VI
after his efforts to disrupt the Demo-
ocratic State organization. And the gem
eral impression is that it is doubtful it
he can win the United States SenatorfaI-
ship fight in championing the cause of
Messrs Pagan and Colby, and. asking
the people of the State to down bos-
sism'' and 'elect me your supreme boss.
Mayor Pagan proudly walked at the
head of his cohorts, made up from every
section of the county. As a young coun-
ty organization it made an exceedingly
proud showing.
The Faganites had five bands. All
We're good ones and they filled the air
with music. They took up a good part
of the procession, which was led with six
mounted police guards. The members
boarded steamer at the foot of Grand
street and wended their way to Wit
zefs Point View Grove, on Long Island
sound, where the members are enjoying
a first class outing, including plenty Of
feed, games and other enjoymente2 pro
vided for by the efficient committees of

Aeronauts Have Marrow Escape From
Death In Fall.
New York, Aug. Pin a perpendic
ular drop of 10000 feet made by his
balloon, DR.. Julian p Thomas and
his brother, Jefferson Davis Thomas
had narrow escape from death.
The balloon, which started from New
York, had descended at Beemerville
N. j., and Dr. Thomas decided on a
second ascension. He dropped over
sufficient ballast to take him up near.
ly two miles, at which altitude the gas
in the bag suddenly began to condense
and the balloon began to drop with
frightful rapidity.
Only the cool nerve of the amateur
ballOonist saved him and his brother
With the air rushing past him and his
ascension register making almost a
straight up and down line, he saved
every ounce of ballast he could. only
three bags of sand being left and then,
when near the earth, he threw this all
overheard at once and lessened the
speed of the descent sufficiently to
modify the danger.
DR.. Thomas and his brother then
jumped up from the floor of the car
and, grasping the gas bag netting,
climbed as far as they could above the
basket.
A few moments later the wicker car
struck the earth with force enough to
have had the most serious results had
they been in it. The point at which
they landed was near Oakland Station.

er with responsibility for precipitat
ing the rebellion.
While no Liberals are in arms agains,
the government they admit counte
nancing the insurrection, though they
always deny knowledge of any conspir
acy. Interviews, statements and hints
given out by the Liberals all point tc
the probability that the matter might
be settled on the basis of the admission
of leaders of their party to the coun
ellis of the government and some form
of guarantee that in the future elec
tions will be conducted with absolute
fairness.
Want Elections AnnuIed.
The insurrectionists in the field, who
of course, are far more radical in theil
demands and who are important fac
tors in this discussion, do not think OF
accepting less than the complete an
nulment of the last elections. All the
Liberals would insist, under any cir
cumstances, upon general amnesty
for all rebels.
All discussion of this sort leads inev
itably to the subject of American inter
vention. If the conflict should last fol
a long time Intervention is considered
certain.
