And each ship, as it found the target, of another ship abreast of her, let drive with all her guns- excepting only the barbette gans. Dangerous! To a landsman the whole affair looks recklessly

dangerous-but it is not so. There may be just a pinch of the spice of danger in it, but only a pinch, and this, perhaps, is somewhat in the scheme's favour, making the condition of firing at least a little nearer to what firing would be in time of actual battle.

When the ships warmed to their work the scene was picturesque in the extreme. The waters were being blistered with hurtling pro- jectiles; the heavens rang to the voice of giant sounds. First the flash of the gun, a glint of" fróc metallic brightness splashed upon the air, next

ACCIDENT TO THE NAVIGABLE

BALLOON..

NARROW ESCAPE OF THE AERONAUT,

PARIS, August 8th..

M. Santos Dumont this morning renewed

his attempt to encircle the Eiffel Tower in his navigable balloon within the time prescribed by the conditions for the Deutsch Prize. He AUC ceeded, after some difficulty, in rounding the Tower, but his balloon was then unable to make headway against the strong wind which was blowing, and it fell on one of the new houses near the Trocadéro and close to the Seine, re- maining suspended on the building. M. Santos Dumont was able to reach the ground in safety having fortunately escaped injury.

M. Santos Dumont left the Parc de St. Cloud at ten minutes past six this morning, amid hearty cheers from a crowd of spectators. Everything went well at the start, and the trip

promised to be a success, for he rounded the Eiffel Tower exactly nine mimites thirty-four seconds after starting. Having turned the tower, he was proceeding on his return journey to St. Cloud, when, just above the Avenue Henri Martin, a strong gust of wind struck the aerostat, which veered violently to one side, at the same time bounding back a distance of át least fifty yards. The hydrogen gas was forced

Owing to the sudden expansion of this portion of the ballion, the machine dipped and the screw touched the steel corde, causing them to
