The spectacle of a monster ‘‘captive” balloon hovering over the city yesterday afternoon attracted the attention of thou- sands of persons. The aerial traveler was one that had been placed on exhibition earlier in the day in a lot at Eleventh and Market streets. Shortly after 4 p. m. the balloon was Seen to soar into the air and travel rap- dly toward the south. The news was spread all over the city that the balloon had broken away from its fastenings and that a number of men and women were in the car and were likely to meet with death. Investigation, however, showed that the balloon was in charge of an aeronaut, and the seven men and one woman with him | were in no danger. | _An advertising man, a gymnast and the | wife of a friend of the owner of the bal- loon were among those who took & jour- ney through the air, and it was stated around the lot whenoe, the ascension had been made that the convenlent break- ing of a rope had set the captive free for advertising purposes. The owner of the balloon and his associ- ates were not at all concerned as to the safety of their property, and assured all who made inquiries that a descent would be made without accident. Last night the balloon and its human freight descended in safety at Wurr Mill on the ranch of Beatty Thompson, situ- ated a few miles west of La Honda. Thompson saw the aerial traveler circling around, and when it came to a clearing he caught the dangling rope and fastened it to a tree. The aeronaut then let out the gas and the passengers were soon on terra firma. Thompson and his wife took good care of the passengers and housed | them for the night. | ., Those who took the unlooked for aerial Jjourney were: Al Dodge, J. F. Leonard, Q. Videdog, Ed Foster Jr., M. L. Ha- worth, Ed Dudley, Mrs. Clara Gonzales, John M. Swift and Walter Leon. |LA ESTRELLA PARLOR | HAS HALLOWEEN PARTY Young People Seek Information as to What Is in Store for Them. | Last Friday night La Estrella Parlor 0. 89, Native Daughters of the Golden West, gave a Halloween party in the ban. quet hall of the Native Sons’' building. The hall was crowded. All were pleas- antly entertained with a programme of games appropriate to the time of the year, which popular imagination has stamped with a peculiar character because of the belief that supernatural influences prevail, and that by going through certain forms and ceremonies those who them may be made aware of what is in store for them in the future. The hall was given a weird appearance by a liberal distribution of pumpkin lan- terns, but these did not strike terror into the hearts of onlookers before the end of the party, pression of the street, “took a fall” out of the grinning lanterns. By means of ap- ples, nuts and luggies many of the young folks learned whether they would remain single or get married, and the “‘witch of the cavern” told many of what there is in store for them. An interesting feature of the evening was a ghost dance by twelve members of the parlor. At the termination of this dance the orchestra played for those who wished to dance on till the early hours of morn. —_————————— Tribute From Veterans. At the last regular meeting of the board of directors of the Veterans’ Home of California the following was adopted and a copy ordered sent to the widow of the late President McKinley: Whereas, With inexpressible grief and_ hor- rer we learn of the untimely death of the beloved President of the United States. Resolved, That in the death of Willlam Me- Kinley the nation has lost a good and upright ruler, the veterans of three wars a devoted friend and comrade, the citizens of the re- public an exakted example of honesty in public and purity in private life, and all mankind & notable exemplar of the noble virtues of | patriotism, fdelity to principle and devotion to_auty. President McKinley died as he lived, his heart overflowing with love for his fellow | men. His most enduring monument will' be in the hearts of his counrtymen. To his loving wife, whom he cared for so tenderly for thirty years, the survivors of the Mexican, - civil and Spanish wars in the Vet- erans’ Home of California, representing forty- four States and Territories of the Union, ten- der their heartfelt sympathy. The memory of his noble life and character will ever be an inspiration to a loftier patriotism and a bet- ter citizenship to the rising generation of Americans and to millions yet unborn. In the shadow of this ereat national calam- ity, the soldiers of the republic, his comrades in arms, renew their pledges of fidelity to the country and its President, and eternal enmity to their enemies and assassins.

MANY TRACTION PLANS SUGGESTED FOR THE PORTABLE SCHOOLHOUSE Scheme of the Board of Education to Relieve Congested Attendance of Pupils Will Work a Revolution in the Department, but Difficulties May Be Encountered When the Building Is Sent Out to Hilly Districts ELLO! Central! Give me Main 70. Hello! Is that the Board of Education?” % “Yes, this is the Board of Ed- ucation.” ““Well, this is Telegraph Hill. Will you kindly send up the portable schoolhouse immediately? There are 115 pupils here who are unable to get in the surrounding schools. You'd better hitch up a couple of extra horses to the house, as the hills are steep hereabout. And say, I have just learned that the Fairmount Primary cannot accommodate 68 pupils, and it is necessary to send a school out in that section. ~ You might hitch an automobile to it, as all the king's horses could not drag it up the steep.hills in that vicinity."” The foregoing is a sample of the tele- phone messages which will drive Secre- tary Hansen to an early grave as soon as the Board of Education carries out its contemplated scheme to build a porteble school in order to relieve the congested attendance throughout the city. At the last meeting of the board Madame Pres- ident Kincaid outlined what she termed | as her pet scheme to put an end to the oft-repeated charges that the schools are overcrowded. She explained that the plan is working well in Boston and would be introduced here. It is expected that the project will work a-revolution in the administration of school affairs. In the first place, Di- rector Mark believes that it is cheaper to move than to pay rent, and says the portable school will put an’end to the ex- penditure of several thousand dollars yearly for rental of outside rooms. It is not known whether the- structure will be propelled by horse power, automobile or traction engine, but it is quite likely that Casserly will insist that it be hauled to its destination by polo ponies, driven tan- dem, with the altitudinous Director him- self ‘at the reins. Great care would have to be exercised to prevent the animals running away while school was in ses- sion, as the spilling of the pupils promis- cuously along the road might prove dis- astrous. Funeral of James Stantdn. The funeral of the late James Stanton, a ploneer of this State, took place early yesterday morning from his late residence, 1838 Misslon street. Only the immediate relatives of the deceased attended, it being his express wish ‘that no display should be made. A requiem mass will be celebrated on Tuesday morning at St. Ignatius Church, where his many friends will have an opportunity 6f paying a tribute to his memory. RTABLE . ScHool.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2—Mr.. and Mrs Andrew Carnegie were passengers upon the St. Louis, which reached her dock late this afternoon. Carnegie refused to dis- cuss New York politics, saying he was no partisan. He was questioned with regard to the proposed technical school at Pitts- burg and said he had received a report upon the subject, and when asked 'if it was_true that the committee had asked for $5,000,000 his reply was: “The committee is incapable of asking for money. The report was truly Ameri- can and worthy of Pittsburg.” Questioned concerning the steel situa- tion Mr. Carnegie laughed, saying: I am out of business; I have reformed." Then he added: “*I have heard something of the forming of an English steel trust. The English are not inclined to combine. It has been said that every Englishman is an island by himself."” ‘““Have you any views upon the subject of the Isthmian canal?” was the next question put to him. “I do not believe in the canal at all.

BUFFALO, N. Y., Nov. Americanp Exposition ended at 12 o'clock to-night. - At midnight sident Jehn G. Milburn pressed an electric button and the lights in the famous electric tower grew dim for the last time. Slowly one by one the lights on post and pinnacle and tower faded away. A corps of buglers standing in the tower sounded “taps” as one of the greatest glories of the exposi- tion, the electrical illumination, passed away, and the exposition was ended. The exhibition has not been a financial success, but the benefits derived from it will be of great value to the commercial | Interests of the country. The primary ob- Ject of the exposition was to advance the friendly relations and commercial inter- course between the United States and the other countries of the two Americas. In this respect it has been a decided suc- cess. The financial loss will be in the neigh- borhood of $3,000,000. The statement gsbe issued by the officers of the exposition setting forth the expenditures and re- ceipts will be made public some time this month. Until then the company will make no formal statement. The loss will-fall upon the holders of the common stock, the holders of second-mortgage bonds and the contractors who erected the buildings. Two hundred and ten thousand shares of common stock were sold at $10 a share. The stock was subscribed for by the cit- izens of Buffalo and the Niagara frontier in small lots of from one share to 100, so that the loss will not be severely felt by any one. Stockholders Make No Complaint. No complaint has been heard from the holders of common, who appreciate the benefit the éxposition has been to the city. There is also a feeling of satisfac- tion that the enterprise was carried to a successful end without State or Federal aid. The first-moptgage bonds, amounting to $2,600,000, will be paid in full. An issue of $500,000 second-mortgage bonds is un- provided for, but the revenue from salv- age and buildings and from other sources will probably cover a part of this indebt- edness. The remainder due to contractors is not definitely known, but it is said that it represents their profits for the work done, and no one will be severely embar- rassed by the loss. An average of 2,000,000 admissions a month had been figured on by the exposi- tion officials. The great snowstorm of last April was a severe blow to the expo- sition. An immense tmount of work was undone and work on the grounds and buildings was aelayed for a week. Stren- uous. efforts were made to make up the lost time, but on May 1 a vast amount of work remained undone, and the formal opening of the exposition was- postponed until May 20. The lamentable tragedy in the Temple of Music was another blow to the Pan-American. The attendance had been increasing steadily up to the date of the assassination of President Mc- Kinley. The gztes were closed for two days, and when they reopened there was a drop of 18 per cent in the attendance, and no improvement followed. Petty Thieving of Exhibits. THe Government exhibit, which is a beautiful and :nstructive collection, will be at once shipped to Charleston. A large crowd attenced the exposition to-day. The ' exhibit buildings were jammed during the afternocon and there Was much petty thieving of exhibits by souvenir flends. The fruit and wine exhibits in the Horti- cultural building suffered the greatest loss from the depredations of the crowd, and it finally became necessary to turn the people out of the building and lock the doors. There was a veritable riot on the mid- way this afternoon. The disorder started from a quarrel between an intoxicated man and a waiter. The crowd took the part of the stranger and wrecked the place, smashing chairs, tables and win- dows. A stream of water from a fire hose finally put the mob to rout. The total admissions to-day were 129,233, and for six months 8,295,073, FISHING-BOATS WRECKED AND MANY LIVES LOST LONDON, Nov. 2.—It is announced in a dispatch to a news agency from St. Pe- tersburg that scores of fishing boats were wrecked and that 170 men were drowned during a recent storm on Lake Baikal.
