Vl’roiesser George Baker, Who
Has Iisde One Ascent This
Week. list a Continuance of
Hard Look. and is Out Sev-
eral Collars by Fire of Yes-
terdsy

 

 

"Professor" George Baker, the New
York aeronaut. who has been at Roton
Point this week, ostensibly to give bal-
loon ascensions. only one of which
materialized, will not "go up" today.
for the very good and simple reason
that he has no balloon, which is a
much better excuse than he has put
up on subsequent occasions. The
balloon went up yesterday—tip in
smoke. and if the remarks come true
the "professor" will smoke later.

The disappointed people characteriz-
ed him as a fake. notwithstanding his
superb but somewhat tangled perfor-
mance of the day before. when he eith-
er could not or did not cut loose from
thetballoon and make a. parachute des~
cen .

Yesterday as the big balloon was be-
ing inflated with hot air an extra
strong gust of wind came and split it
open on one side. A great swirl of
black smoke came out and the top
of the big globe blew out and the rem-
nants of the balloon flattened out on
the earth like a jellyfish on a
wharf.

The crowd was hardly pleased and
the management of the Reliance Hook
and Ladder Company’s carnival was
exceedingly disappointed and mortified
by this third fiasco on the part of the
"professor," whom they had hired.

Hard luck has certainly characteriz-
ed the carnival between the “profes-
sor' a balloon. which seemed to have an
affectionate fondness for the earth. the
accident sustained by the acronaut
and today’s rain.

Cases of Two Norwaik Men Are Con-

Owing to the inability to procure
an interpreter It was necessary to con-
tinue a case indefinitely In the Nor-

before the court were Cornelius Cook
and John Renforlh.

Both men were picked up Tuesday
evening by Officer Thomas Mather-
land. They had become mixed up in
a dispute over it five dollar bill. Cook
claimed that Renforth had tuined the
bill over to him to secure drinking
material for each other.

Renforth is a Russian Finn and
could speak hardly a word of English.

NEW YORK, August 25.—Struck by
lightning during a terrific storm which
swept over Staten island and the

lower part of the upper bay at mid-
night. the ship Marlborough Hill, laden
with case oil and naphtha, lying in
the stream. midway between Tomp-
kinsville and Stapleton. is burning,
lighting up the buy from the Battery
to Sandy Hook.

The crew of 24 men left the ship
just after the fire started and landed
at Stapleton Word was sent to Man-
hattan for fire boats. and the boat
from the Battery and several tugs
went as. close to the burning ship as
possible and began to flood her with
water. She will be flooded so as to
save as much as possible of the oil
below the water. '

The lightning hit the mainmast and
passed down the steel pole into the
hold where there was an explosion.
Smoke began to show at once and
rockets and lights were burned. Find-
Ing their alarms were unheeded. the
men lowered the boats and made for

During the excitement an alarm was

IlaiI Flippers Punctured, sud
llopes Passed Through Them
to Control the Reptile

...—om.—

The lawyers ln South Norwalk are
all busy today investigating the deep»
iy interesting subject "The nervous
system of a turtle." It seems a strange

subject of legal study. but several In—
teresting legal points may be develop-
ed regarding it tomorrow. when Cap-
tain Charles Decrees. of the People's
Fish Market. appears before the town
court to answer to the charge- of
cruelty to animals.

The Sentinel yesterday published an
account of the big boo-pound turtle
which Captain Ducross had placed on
exhibition in the window of his mar-
ket. The turtle was kept for a con'
siderable length of time on Its back.
but thinking it would like a change of
position it was turned right side up.
The turtle thereupon proceeded to
crawl off, and it took the strength
of two men to prevent it from crawl-
ing through the fish market window.
When the turtle arrived Its rear flip-
pcrs had been pierced and a rope pass—
ed through the holes. rendering the
two flippers helpless.

As the two forward flippers were
very active, Captain Ducross treated
them in the same manner. The turtle
wriggled somewhat while the opera—
tion of piercing the flippers was be-
ing performed. but failed to express
and opinion as to whether or not It
hurt. Some who saw It inferred that
the prick of the knife blade produced
a tickling sensation of a pleasurable
variety and averred that the turtle's
face wore a pleased expression.

A turtle. according to the encyclo-
pedia. is a cold-blooded vertebrate rep-

tion has been raised whether the law
was intended to cover reptiles as well
as animals. The law under which the
prosecution is made states “tortures.
deprives of necesary sustenance, mu-
tilates or cruelly boats or kills any an-
imal." shall be fined not more than
$250 or imprisoned not more than your
or both. The contention of the state
Is that the turtle Is on animal as de—
fined by law, being a “dumb brute."

Another Interesting question is
whether a turtle is sufficiently sus-
ceptible to pain to make the punctur-
ing its fiippers cruelty.

On the other hand the encyclopedia
states that “turtles require no atten—
tion during captivity, living. for long
periods without sustenance and being
peculiarly fitted for transportation
over long distances while yet alive."

The complaint was made against-
Captniu Ducross by Frank H. Oster-
haus, who is employed at the Colonial
Mills In East Norwalk. Several oth-
er informal complaints were also lodg-
ed with Prosecutor Tammany. A writ
was issued and served by Constable
Goodwin. lust evening. Captain Du-
cross put up a bond of 925 for appear-
ance in court tomorrow morning.

$500,000 LOSS III .
BROOKLYN FIRE

Lightning Strikes Great Store-
houses Filled With Cotton——
Firemen Hampered byprori
Water Supply

 

 

NEW YORK. August 25.—A loss of
more than half a million dollars was
caused early this morning in stores
290 and 341 of the extensive plant of
the Busch Terminal Warehouse 00.. at
the foot of 44th street, Brooklyn.
Started by lightning during a terifiic
storm just before midnight the fire
was still burning at an early hour this
morning. The firemen expect to con-
fine the flames on the one big buil-
ding in the Forty-fourth street block.

The Busch stores extend from 44th
street to 58th street.

‘F‘lllcd with thousands of bales of
cotton. consigned to brokers in Man-
hattan. the warehouses burned fierce
Iy and stubbornly. The fire depart-
ment is handicapped by a lack of wa-
ter in that section of Brooklyn, only
one main being available for the
many streams the firemen are trying
to play upon the flames. The fire
boats from the Baydide of the burn-
ing structure were doing the most ef-
fective work.

When lightning struck the stores
the shock was felt for a distance of
several blocks. Almost. Immediately
flames leaped from the low lying
structure. The seriousness of the

four alarms were turned in. -

A large number of traneAtlantIc
freight steamers lying at the Busch
company’s docks were in peril. but the
captains immediately cut Icose and
floated into the stream. being subse-
quently picked up by tugs or gotten
under way with their own steam.

The Busch stores are among the
most modern warehouses In the world.
Each building covers a block and
every structure is divided into com.
partmcnts known as stores. The
walls of the warehouse buildings are
from 18 to 24 Inches in thickness and
to prevent a spread of fire the main
structures are separated by lanes 80
feet. In width.

Assistant Fire Chief Binn. from
Manhattan. reached the fire shortly
after the fourth alarm had been
sounded. and took charge of the fight-
ing brigade. Many engines summoned
service because of the scarcity of wa-
ter.
