 Greenwich, Conn.,, Aug. 6.-1n an at tempt 10 fly with pair of wings of his own construction, Arioch Wheeler, farmer of North Mianus, who had been reading the accounts of the aero plane exhibitions at Brighton Beach and who became demented from the heat, jumped from the roof of Hiram Jameson's barn and nearly met his death in the waters of the Mianus river. He was saved only through the presence of mind of John Josselin, who was near by when he took the plunge.
 Wheeler had been following the re- cent aeronautic experiment with keen interest for several days. After work ing in the sun several hours he sud denly left his turnip field and made for the house. No one paid any particular attention to him, though three or four were near. The next that was seen Of him was when Martin Jacobson and Harry Lewis were attracted by the unusual sight of a man to whose shoulders were attached wings of heavy wrapping paper. six feet long. stretched over a wooden framework, standing on the top of Jameson's barn.
 T am Count Zeppelin" cried the strange figure, and before anything could be done to hinder him he leaped into space. The rear of Jameson's s barn from whence Wheeler jumped is about a dozen feet from the edge of the Mianus river so that when he fell he struck well into the middle of the stream He was pulled to shore by Josselin. whose farm is on the oppo site shore, after he had gone down | twice. ..
 When rescued he was unconscious, | but when he came to he was perfectly sane and said he had no recollection of the escapade. Physicians say that he was suffering from temporary in, ! sanity brought on by the heat.

TROLLEYMEN's UNION.
Organization Promises to Support
 Providence Men.

Providence Men.
 Hartford, Aug 6.-Because the Rhode Island Trolley company aimed a vital blow at the life of the Trol- leymeL s union when 1t asked us employees to sign an anti-union coL- tract. the Hartford Trolleymen s union in two meetings held in Cen, tral row at o'clock Tuesday after noon and at o'clocH in the even ing. pledged support to the Provi- dence organization, and also pledged itself to act in concert with other locals in Massachuse ts, Rhode is- land and Connecticut, to secure rec ognition Gf the demands of the Prov idcnus employees in their trouble.
 The objectionable documalis which the Providence men were asked 10 sign, and which they re- fused, reads as follows;
 T am not a member of the Amal- gamated Association of Electric and s rect Railway Employees, nor will l join any labor organization while in the employ of the Rhode Island company.
 Notification was >sent to the other locals in the three states, inform .ng them of the situation, and Inser- national President w. D. Mahon, with International Treasurer Rezin Orr, have been visiting the unions in several cities to ascertain their sentiment. Treasurer Orr was al the meetings in this city Tuesday and in accord with the action oi other local organizations. the Hart ford men passed the following reso' lutions:
 Resolved, That the members oi Division No 425, Amalgamaeed As sociation of Street and Electric Rail way ,Employes of America, in regu lar meeting assembled, do pledge ourselves and our organization te the loyal support of our brothers 1T Providence in their struggle for the same rights which we now enjoy and that We further pledge ourselves 10 act in unison with the men 1T 1 Massachusetts, Rhode Island ane Connecticut.
 Be it further resolved, That w take this occasion to place ourselves on record as being unalterably op posed to the anli-union contract. If the matter is brought to crisis, it seems probable that thou 1 sands of employees of the trolle. I companies will go out on sympa l thetic strikes with the Providence men, and the result would be a ty ing-up or a very serious crippling Q the trolley roads throughout South ern New England.

DREAMS HE IS UP
 IN AN AIRsH|P.
Wakes to Find Himself Sitting on Sidewalk.

New York, Aug. 6. = Roland Mill ward, twenty-one years old, came home tired out and fell asleep at the rear window of his apartments on the third floor. Soon he lost his balance and again fell-this time out of the window.
 Dr. Moeckel, who arrived in an ann bulance from the Harlem hospital, found Millward sitting up.
 'I dreamed was up in an airship," he said when asked how he felt.
