The republican rally at the audi
tofium last Wednesday evening
was singularly lacking in enthus-
iasm. The hall was very indiffer-
emily filled. About l25 persons
were present and they seemed
cold and out of sympathy Crumps
address was not popular one and
even Senator DeLong, who is
popular here made few friends,
indeed lost some by his open sup
port of Buchtel and Gabbert. Mr..
DeLong made a good fight for
decency in the last Legislature
against stealing Adams seat, and
it is mystery to US how he can
now support the chief conspirator
in that Infamous THEFT. DeLong
would have done well to have
attended to his own candidacy
and let the republican state ticket
do the same.

CROWDS GAZE
UPON A MOST
UNUSUAL SCENE

The unusual spectacle of seeing man
hurled from the mouth OF a cannon was
the cause OF some 1900 eager spectators
congregating on the old ball field al
Crescent Park yesterday.
AT shortly after 4:30 young owens. a
mere boy. tucked himself snugly into the
mouth OF the cannon. only having his
feet I'm view TO the crowd. Prof. La
Roux then handed the young man ci-
gar. and gave the signal TO cut the hot
air bag loose.
owing to the dampness OF the atmo-
sphere the balloon rose but slowly, and
at at a height OF 400 feet began 10 settle
towards the earth. Prof La Roux from
the ground gave the signal for the young
aeronaut 10 light the fuse that would
In turn ingte the bomb which would
hurl him into space. but the dampness oi
the fuse caused him TO have recourse to
his emergency line. which he pulled Wig
orously, and when about 200 feet from
the earth managed to cut free, but the
distance was too short TO allow his para
chute 10 open, and he dropped with
marked force straight into the fir trees
on Narragansettr terrace.
There was a rush for the spot. and
Clifford Moffet of Narragansett terrace
and Albert j. Lodge or Pawtucket ave
nue. were amazed upon reaching the
spot 10 find the young aeronaut strug-
Cling in the tangled mass of rope, trying
to free himself After assisting him 10
the ground. IL was found that beyond a
skinned arm and barked leg he suffered
no injury. The balloon with the cannon
attached continued on its downward
path, and finally rested In the waters OF
the Providence river. where II was later
towed 10 the dock by Byron Cheney's big
launch.
The intention OF Prof La Roux was 10
send Owens up some 1000 feet, where the
parachute that he had folded up in the
cannon would open and return him 10
terra flrma. After that an automatic
contrivance was TO loosen the cannon,
which would also make a parachute des-
cent. some 200 feet behind the aeronaut.
The dampness however. prevented the
mechanism from working as smoothly as
II should, with the heretofore stated re-
suit.
Today a double drop is scheduled. and
on Saturday there will be three TO make
the leap. This form of amusement has
proven SO popular with the visitors at
the resort that Mr.. La Roux has been
engaged TO remain for another week.
