Notwithstanding the fact that the
balloon burned on Saturday, Thos.
Daily, who had charge of this part Of
the program. secured another balloon
from Desdwood and the ascension
billed for Sunday was pulled of at
about seven O'Clock that evening. It
was the prettiest ascension ever Wit
messed In the Hills. The wind which
had been blowing all day died down
and everything was perfectly calm
when the aeronaut gave the signal for
the men to release the big gas bag
which was filled just south Of the
library Ia lower town. He ascendsd 70
q heighth Of perhaps twelve hundred
feet when he cut loose with his para
chute. He slighted just one block
south Of where he left the ground.
This concluded the list of attractions
billed Tor the celebration and there is
no doubt but that It was the best sr.
ranged and finest celebration ever at
tended BY the many visitors. That
was the universal expression.
A fact worth mentioning was the
good behavior and good order that was
maintained during the two days. Not
q man was arrested for disorderly con-
duct and everything moved along in
tine style.
In conclusion we wish to state, and
this is an opinion expressed by prscti-
cally everyone In Hot Springs, that this
crowd was the biggest and best ever
entertained at celebration in Hot
Springs and perhaps in the Hills. AL.
80 that the fsct that this large crowd
was here 10 due to the efforts of @. A.
Stewart, j. @. Whsley and Thos. Daily
who had charge of the publicity depart
ment and the program. The lions
share of the credit should 60 to Mr..
Daily and this opinion is shared BY the
other two members Of the committee.
as 1t was his work of advertising this
celebration that did the work. Every
town tributary to this place that did
not celebrate was properly billed and
inducements offered that got the
crowd and what is more they came.
This work was done at Q minimum cost.
And when the 6rst balloon burned 1t
took Mr.. Daily but q short time to &C.
cure another 90 that no one would be
disappointed. His work Of securing
this crowd only goes to show that
advertising properly placed and worked
will do wonders in getting visitors for
this city. Once here We have smuse-
ments enough with our plungss, con.
certs, Wind Gave, etc. to properly en-
tertain them and with hotel service
second to none in the west.
The fire department is TO be oongrat-
ulated on their work in carrying out
the program In most instances very
promptly. Altogether it was . csle-
bratioh long to be remembered By
those who were fortunate enough to
spend It in Hot Springs.
