Pennsylvania from undesirable feeds.

Never ball game on ,the local
grounds was witnessed by such crowd
as that between Reynoldsville and
Eleanora. Burge and Gibson we're the
battery for the Reynoldsville team aud
the line up seemed strong. While they
played, the big balloon In the left field
slowly filled with gas. The Reynolds
vile team was playing we'll and had the
game we'll in hand. The brown balloon
was towering high and tugging at the
ropes. Eleanora's players had taken
the bat and expectancy ran high. A
man or two had got on the bases, when
the mammoth balloon shot up-leaving
the aeronaut standing below. Someone
had blundered in afflxing the parachute
to the balloon and 1t was fortunate for
Nelson that the rope broke close the
ground. Had 1t carried him higher be-
fore breaking the fall would probably
have killed him.
And the game? Just what happened
there in the excitement 1t would be
difficult to tell. All the people knew
was that when they again turned to
the game the score was s to 4 in favor
of Eleanora. When the big balloon
came huttering forlornly down the
Reynoldsville team went up in the air
to make amends. They did not stay
there long however and In the last three
innings made courageous, uphill
fight, nosing out victor by one run.
Reynoldsville 8, Eleanora s.
Nelson, the balloonist, again attempt
ed an ascension at 1880 In the evening.
On this occasion the cutoff rope had
apparently been tied too tight with the
result that at the first tug of the as
cending balloon the parachute was sew
ereG from the bag, leaving Nelson
below. This time the crowd showed
an ugly temper, and the balloonist's
manager also. kTwilight was falling
hut at the solicitation of members of
the committee he agreed to make one
more attempt. The third time the
parachute was tied on by two home
boys, one of whom had learned a trick
or two about tying knots In the navy.
That time it held and Nelson went up
with the bag.
Meanwhile the big crowd was jostling
around on Main street In the best of
humor. The fireworks were displayed
on vacant area near Franks Tavern
and delighted the crowd. In the 1. o.
o. F. hall a dance was in progress
throughout the evening and was we'll
patr0nized.
Altogether, the celebration, despite
the balloonist's unfortunate failure.
may be voted an unqualified success.
The committees did all in their power
to present good, clean program, free
from any taint Of taking, and the visit
ors were practically unanimous in ex-
pressing their approval Of the event,
an opinion which found further voice
in the generous praise given Reynolds
Vile by the daily newspapers in this
part OF the state.

HEAVY TOLL OF LAKES

as for Last Season-Lake Huron

DETROIT. Mich. December 1l.-With
the practical certainty that the men OF
the steamer Clarion and the car ferry
Marquette and Bessemer No. > have gone
to their doom, the toll OF death taken
by wind and wave since the official close
of navigation on the great lakes one
week ago falls but five short OF the Off
cial seasons total, Sixty-three men was
the CONT up To last Saturday. This
weeks death list--fifty-two on Lake Erie
and six on Lake SUPPLEMENTARY is
ifty-eight and when the final reckoning
is made OF those whose terrific fight for
life in the icy waters of the inland seas
brought broken and frost-bitten limbs
and bodies the number may be made to
exceed the casualties OF the entire season
of legitimate navigation.
This total OF l21 lives lost in 1909 is not
far from four times the total of last
year, when thirty-tilree men found
watery graves as the result of storm and
stress.
\ study of the mortuar3 lists shows
that since the opening of navigation last
spring seyenty-five lives have been lost
on Lake Erie, fifty on Lake Superior and
six on Lake Michigan.
