 King Alfonso took such a great interest in the recent balloon tournament at Madrid that he followed the balloons in his motor car, determined to their descent. Finding one of the still inflated balloons had de scended in field. where its owner had left 1t while he went to procure assistance, the king jumped into the car and began to throw out bags of sand. and announced to his aid-de-eamp his intention of indulging in A balloon ascension. his mother and min- isters having prevented him taking part in the tournament earlier in the day.

REBELS IN UGLY MOOD.
First Election Disorders Are Reported
 From Astrakhan.

St. Petersburg, April 1l.-The hrst election disorders have been reported occurred at Astrakhan, where on elec- tion day a great mob of revolutlonlsts formed on the outskirts Of the city and swept down upon the polls in an attempt to prevent voting. Though the authorities. anticipating trouble had concentrated the police reserves of the whole province of Astrakhan' the reserves were defeated by the mob which was dispersed only by the free use of a large force of Cossacks.
 Later the crowd reformed and made q demonstration in front. of the Gov ernor's palace but was again dispers- ed. The election was then completed.
 The revolutionists not only of Astra- haskan, but of the whole southeass- ern part of the empire are in an ugly mood The government for some time has quietly been preparing to put down an armed outbreak which was expected to take place after Easter and has been moving troops thither.
 As an attempt to cut communication is feared. all the railroads have been placed under martial law, bridges and stations strongly garrisoned and arms served out to railroad employees to en- able them to resist intimidation by the insurgents.
