Heroism that cost Patrolman
Neils Tonneson a lacerated right
hand was displayed this morning
when the patrolman hung to the
bride of frightened horse and was
dragged fifty feet. The animal
dashed through High street into
Smith street, but was intercepted by
the patrolman before it proceeded
far.
The animal was attached to fur

High street, near Fayette, 1t became
frightened at passing brewery

towards the city's main thorough

Cappaeione was walking beside the
wagon, holding the reins.

could release himself from the reins
he was dragged fifteen or twenty feet

Just as the steed rounded the cor

horses head in an ecort to grip the
reins. He missed the bride, and his
right hand was torn by a strap
buckle. A quick second effort Sc
cured the trailing reins, and holding
down the horses head by sheer bod
lily weight, the officer was dragged
from the corner about fifty feet.

The horses mouth was cut by the
hard-pulled bit. Besides the patrol

From Fayette street to Smith

furniture. Chairs, tables and boxes
adorned the roadway. The wagon
was not damaged. Several pieces Of
furniture, however, were scratched

three themes. He said that the
church was the word Of God, and the
laymen His stewards. No such time
has presented itself as the present,
he added, to spread the gospel.
Conditions of the present day, con-
tinued DR.. Demarest, incline toward
a decrease in religious sentiment. No
longer do we find the intense relig-
ious enthusiasm that marked days
lax in the fears of hell and the antic-
time such as the present to preach
the gospel, he continued.

Atlantic City, N. J., Oct. 1.-THE
giant dirigible balloon America, with
Walter Wellman and a crew of FIVE
men, which left AtlaIfsic City for Eu-
rope Saturday morning, was last heard
from by wireless somewhere east Of
Nantucket, more than $50 miles from
the starting point.
The exact position OF the balloon Is
unknown. The last message received
at the wireless station at Siasconsett,
Mass, came very family, and it is pre-
sumed she was so far out to sea that
her wireless apparatus would hardly
carry to the shore.
The weather has been so foggy ever
since the start that it has been i'm
possible for those in the airship to
take an observation, and they could
not therefore tell the wireless station
their location.
The last message received at Sias-
consett was:
"All well. Goodby."

unknown, there is nothing OF which to
base a comparison of her flight with
those of other dirigibles. The record
fight for dirigibles was made on May
20 and 30, 1909, by the German mill
tary balloon Zeppelin H., which cov-
cred 900 miles in 81 hours 40 minutes
without landing.
The longest flight ever made by a
spherical balloon was by Count Henry
de la Vaulx in 1900, when he went
from Vincennes, France, to Russia, a
distance of 1,193 miles, in thirty five
and three-quarter hours.
The next news undoubtedly will be
relayed from some Atlantic liner. All
steamships have been asked to watch
for the America and to send promptly
any news that may be received. A
dispatch from Siasconsett states that
