An Aeronaut’s Awtul Death. Cannes, March 25.—Animumn @, crowd gathered here to-day to wit ness a balloon ascension by the aero naut Wilton, who is well known iu America. No cur was attached to the balloon and Wilton ascended hanging to When 15,000 feet high the balloon was caught in| a rope. a current of air that carrivd it rapid ly seaward. [t was apparent that he could not coutrol the vaive at the top of the bailoon, which had it been opened, would have let the gas out and the balloon te descend gradual- ly. For some unexplainable reason the aeronaut let go his bold of the rope from which he dangled, and his body shot downward into the sea with frightful velocity. The acci- dent occurred full view of the spectators and x number of women in the crowd fainted away. A num ber of pleasure boats hurriedly made their way to the place where Wilton had fallen, and after x short search his body was recovered.
