,1 THE CINCINNATI DAILY STAR, MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 6, 1879. THE DAILY STAR THE TWO AOEOBATS. It was done away with long ago. Government took it up, said it was danger ous, and put a stop to it. rerbaps it was dangerous, and perhaps Government was right to put a stop to it.

But I didn't like it then, for it was my bread, and meant five pounds a week to me; and when it was stopped, my profession was ruined. I don't like it now, for you see I've made flesh, and am close on fifty; but fifteen or twenty years ago, when I was in my fleshings, I could have shown you such a figure and such muscles as you wouldn't see every day. Mo aud my brother were a wonderful pair, just the same height and wonderfully alike. It was a bit of gammon; but it took wonderfully on the bills and our manager said it would bo utter madness to announce ourselves as Ben janien and Thomas Hitchens; so we used to be in blue letters all over London, "Pes Freres ProvenceauT," and the people came to see us from all parts. We were engaged, you see, at the Conduit Gardens, and did the trapeze work.

Now, I dare say, you'll find plenty of people who will say it was known long before; but don't you 'believe 'em. I'm the man who invented the trapeze at least I'm the boy that is, I invented it when I was a boy, on the swing in our back garden, the one we made under the apple treee, out of mother's clothes-line, and rubbed it till it broke all to bits, and let Tom down that heavy that he put out his shoulders. You see, it was from experimenting on that swing, hangiug by my legs, by one hand, Liv two hands, and upside down, that sowed the seeds of ail those wonderful trapeze exploits that have, as we say in the bills, "thrille expectant audience in every nerve and fiber of their frames." Tom turned very sulky after he put his shoulder out, and he wouldn't try any more tricks, till he grew jealous of seeing me get so handy at them (he was a queer fellow, was Tom, and never could bear for me to be ahead of him, even in taking medicine), and then he set to work I wasn't by, and worked so hard that he got to shorten the rope, and to hang by one root, quite clever. 1 uacln't known anything about it, he'd been so sly; so that I was quite took aback one day, when after figuring about in my boyish fiishion upon the rope, he snickered at me a bit, and then, to my great astonish-ishment: "Get down, he says; and he ete to, does all I have done before, and a great deal more, too, till he ends by hanging by one leg, when, crash the rope snapped, and down came poor Tom on his head and shoulder with a most terrible bang. Up got Tom and flew at me like a tiger because I was laughing and I put it to you, could I help it? and then we had a regular stand up fight, which was not ended until our Mary charged down upon with a clothes prop, and caught Tom by the throat with the big prong, so as she held him against the wall till he promised he wouldn't fight any more.

Tom didn't keep his promise, for he was a terrible boy for fighting, and many's the up-and-down set-to we have had together. Woe betide any boy, though, who touched me! It didn't matter how big he was, Tom always took my part, and thrashed him. From doing things on the rope, we took to tumbling a little oil the ground, tying our ourselves in knots, walking on our hands; and I shall never forget the day when I first threw a somersault without touching the ground with my hands. That day was a marked one for me; first because of the pride I felt as I ran in the field and spun over; second, because Tom 'as so jealous that he took a run and a jump and came ilowu on his back, making it so stifl and bad that he couldn't move hardly for a week.J At last, having done all this for our own amusement as boys, we had to give it up, for tiaies got very bad at home. Poor father, who had only been a journeyman painter, fell ill "and died, and mother moved to London, where, after a deal of trying, we boys got a job here and a job tiiere at rough painting, for, from helping father at home, we were both pretty handy with the brush.

Times, however, were very hard with us, when one day we heard of a chance. The Royal Conduit Gardens were being done up in a hurry, the lessee having taken them, as it were, at the eleventh hour; and being at a high rent, of course Ite wanted to get them open as soon as possible. B. decoration was the order of the day, and every man who could handle a brush was taken on, painters being scarce in the spring. Well, we went, and were soon busy at work, painting arbors and arches, and touching up orchestra and artificial sky ill the gardens were opened, when the manager who was a very civil fellow, gave Tom and your humble servant a ticket for the opening day.

That was a treat for us, for we were in good spirits, having a few shillings in our pockets. We saw the theatricals, heard the music, looked at that, and were thoroughly enjoying ourselves, until he joined the circle about to witness the performances of the Tantipalpiti family; and there we stood for some time seeing thera wulk on their hands, tie themselves in knots, and do a few clumsy somersaults. Then Tom looked at me, aud I looked at htm, and we went away laughing together at what we had seen. "Why," said Tom at last, stopping abort, and giving himself a treinetidotu) flap on the thigh, "if I couldn't do that flyover better than any one there, I'd eat my boots." "It was poor, wasn't it?" I said. "Poor!" echoed Tom; "it was shameful" We walked home that night in silence; mit no sooner were we in our room than Tom whips ffh is oat and waistcoat, and kicks off bis boots, and then goess through lutlf a dozen of tricks rather J4iflly but better than anything we had "Have a try, old boy, he said; and I had a try; and the next day we nearly frightened our landlady to death, and sent he off searching for help to cot Tom down, because ne had nung himself from a hook in the ceiling.

They got used to our antics at last, and took no notice of us, as we tried hard to get off that stiffness, tor the same idea had struck us both that we had better take to tumbling than paint and starve. "It strikes me, said Tom, "that if we get a rope or two and some cross-bars fixed, we can rather astonish them; anyhow, we'll see." I quite agi-ee with Tom and shortly after, as bold as brass, we applied to the manager of the Gardeus for an engagement. Of course, he wanted to see what wo could do; so a couple of ropes were fitted up over the stage of the little hall, a bar was tied across like a swing, and on it we set to turning over, hanging on hands and toes and the backs of our heads, and playing such daring pranks that we brought down the house that is to say, the lessee and his friends applauded loudly; and I believe I never felt better in my life as when he engaged us on the spot at a salary. For the whole of the season we were as successful as could be, and through constant practice we got to be very handy, and aid our tricks in a way which the newspapers called graceful, but, as a matter of course, there were soon a host of imitators, and at the beginning of the next season people wanted something new, and the manager asked us if we couldn't introduce something. "It must be something wonderfully exciting, you know," he said, "or else it won't take.

You'd think that was strong enough, for them," ho continued, pointing to a balloon; "but, Lor' bless you, they don't care now for balloons. Go and think it over. For my part, I thought of proposing a trapeze at the top of two of the highest scaffold polos we can get." I started a bit as he said that; and just then the balloon rose and went away swiftly and lightly over the trees, I watched it thoughtfully, for I had got an idea iuto my head. The next morning I talked it over with Tom, who agreed to it in a minute; and we shook hands over it slowly, for our minds were made up. When the manager engaged us first he said our names wouldn't do a bit.

The Tantipalpitis' name, he said, was by right Bodge. The consequence was (as I have said) he went in for French. So" the announcement of the "Grand Trapeze Act" of "Les Freres Frovencaux" was advertised all over Loudon. How well I remember that bright June day, when, going forward in our grand dresses, all tights, satin, rulf and spangles we were greeted with a roar of applause, and saw that the gardens were crammed with peop'e, in the middle of whom was the great balloon ready filled, and swing-ingjto and fro, as it tugged at its ropes. "How do you feel Tom!" I said looking at him.

"Brave as a lion, my boy," he says, stoutly. ''It's no more than doing" it twenty foot high." "True," I said; "and it is as easy to be drowned in sixty as in six hundred feet of water." The next minute we were holding the trapeze bars, close to the balloon, waiting the signal for it to rise; and now, for the first time, I felt a sensation of fear, and I'll tell you what gave it to me the people instead of cheering us as soon as we trgan to rise, kept perfectly silent, and that seemed to go right through me for you must know what we had been advertised to do was to perform our rope and bar tricks right under the balloon, twenty feet below the car, and that without anything to save us if we should make a slip. There was no time for fear, though; and the next minute we were doing it ell as coolly as could as we rose fifty, a hundred, a thousand feet in the air, aud iloated away out of sight I don't recall that I was so very glad to get up into the car, for the excitement kept me from feeling afraid: Ire-member thinking, though, that Tom looked rather pale. Then we wrapped up well and enjoyed our first hours ride till we came down right away in Kent. We kept that on time after time, and the people came to see us in mobs.

The manager said it was the greatest take he had ever had; and I must say lie behaved to us very handsomely, what with raising our wages and making us pres nts. But 1 did not teel easy in my own mind, for the idea was my own invention, and I ought not have exposed poor Tom to danger iiKewise: but, all the sisme, I dared not say a word for if I had I know how jealous he would have turued directly. 1 should think that we had done this about a month; and all that month there was ringing in my ears the words of a woman, who said out loud, on the second time we went up: "Ah, they'll do that once too often." Suppose, I thought to myself, we doit once too often 1 But then there came the thought of the money, and that drove away a groat deal of my timidity, as I told myself that a man might play such antic for his whole life and never fall. Well, as I said, we had been doing it about a month, when one evening we look to our places as usual. It was an xtra night, and the largest balloon was to ascend; our rope, too, was to be lengthened to thirty feet, and at that distance below the car we were to swing about as usual You may say we ought to have been used to it by this tiie; there are things, though, which you never dt get used to, try how you will, and this was one of them.

The bands were playing away their best; the people were eagerly looking at the half a dozen aeronauts who were to ascend, the manager of the balloon was there: the signal was given, and the peo ple pot in it. men me Daiioon was allowed to rise so high that nur trapeze swung clear, wheii hung from it by my legs holding a bar in my hands, over which Tom threw his legs and hune head downward: and then away we went, up, up through the soft evening air, so slowly that Tom hands touched the top of one of the elm-trees as he waved about a couple of flags. Our custom was to hang quits ptLll till we were up four or five hundred feet, and then to begin our twining and twist ing; and so we did now, when Tom pitched away the flags, and we went through our tricks, rising higher and higher, with the faces of the dense crowd getting mixed into a confused mass, and the strains of the band growing fainter and fainter, till all below was quite mingled into an almost inaudible hum. We had only one more trick to do, and that was to cast loose the bar, and each man swing by his own rope. I had loosed my end.

the perspiration streaming down me the while, and Torn had done the same, when swinging round toward me with a horrible white face, he exclaimed: "Ben, old man, I'm going to iaii." It's no use; I couldn't tell vou what felt then, if I had tried ever so, only that in half a second I saw Tom lying a hor- i i.i..... i i. uuic uiuaiieu corpse lar ueiowj aim 1 icil so paralyzed that I thought I should have to let go of my own rope and fallen myself. I could act, though, and I did, for in a flash I had given myself a jerk forward and thrown myself against Tom, flinging my legs around him and holding him tightly; and then, tired as I was I felt that I had double weight to sustain, for Tom's rope was swinging to aud fro, and as my legs clung round his body his head hung down, and I know he must have fainted. How I managed to hold on, I can't tell now, for, though weak with all I had done I managed to give a hoarse cry for help, and the next moment I heard a cry from the basket-work car.

Thou I felt the rope begin to work as I managed to shriek out ''No! no!" for if they had hauled any longer, they must have jerked poor Tom from my hold. I often asked myself whether it was half an hour or onlv a few seconds be fore I saw a rope lowered with a big running nnose, and then I've a misty notion of having set my teeth fast on the rope, as I felt a dreadful weight, as of lead, dragging at me. Then I felt that it was all over, and I knew that' I had been the death of poor Tom, for he had seemed to fall as I felt the rope by which I hung jerk again violently. I saw the earth below like a map, and the golden clouds up above the great net covered ball, and then a mist swam before my eyes, and all seemed black and thick as night. When I cr.me to, I was lying on my back in the car, with a man pouring brandy between my lips.

My first words were gasped out in a husky tome, tor 1 did not know where I was; and then I remembered bursting out into quite a shriek, as I cried: "Where's Tom?" "Hera, old man," he snid, for they had managed to drag us both into the car; and for the next hour we sit there shivering, saturated with cold perspiration; even the men in the car being silent, un nerved, as I suppose, by our narrow escape. Tom wanted to go again, but I wouldn't let him. "I did not tremble," he said; it was only a fit of giddiness through being unwell." I went up, though, many times afterward alone, on horses and on bulls; and I have meant to had a car of flying swans for a grand hit, when Government stepped in, and put a stop to it; and, as 1 said before, very sorry I was, foi it was my living. Hare Iiiolaiicn of Longevity, Itockville, Co in. Journal.

Widowed twin sisters. 78 years old, have been vis'uing relatives this week in Kjckville. They caoie from Augusta, unattended by any escort. They bade adieu to their friends yesterday, one going to Boston, the other to visit a daughter residing at Brooklyn, N. Y.

The combined ages of the 2 parents and their 8 children, reckoning the 3 now living at the ages they have already ranched, is 748 years, which gives an average of 74 8-10 vears for each person, a somewh it remarkable for 1 family. One of the 2 brothers, Cap tain John Soule, died on btmrd the ship he commanded at the age of 43. The other brother, Captain Abiaha Soule, who wa-i for many ye rsa shipmaster, lived to be 80.

Burglars descended upon the village of Talmadge Hill, New Canaan, Wednesday morning, entering the residences of Cornelius Taylor, Mrs.

Sher man Smith and Charles Waterbury, and the store of Mr. Waterbury. Mrs. Tay lor had a thrilling experience, which the Messenger thus describes: About 1 o'clock she was awakened by an unusual noise, but hearing nothing further to arouse her suspicious she again went to sleep. She awakened the second time about an hour later by a slight noise in ner room.

Upon turnine over ana casting a glance about the" room, she espied a villainous looking negro (Mrs. Taylor thinks the intrudor was a white man iu disguise) upon his hands and knees slowly creeping towards her. As Mrs. Taylor caught the burglar's eve, and he saw that he was discovered, he cast a most malicious and threatening look at the terrified lady, indicative of uue vengeance should she make auy outcry or alarm. Though helpless and almost powerless with terror, Mrs.

Taylor endeavored to arouse nor husband by nudging hua with her elbow, but was unable to awakou him. Glancing at the burglar, she saw that he was close to the bed and appeared to be about to spring upon her. In the dim, uncertain light of the room, with his repulsive face so near to her own and his evil eye fastened upon her, he seemed more like a wild and ferocious beast than a human being, but the courageous lady, commanding all her energies, raised herself to a sitting posture and gave a iouu ana piercing scream tor help. Awakened by his wife's cry of terror, Mr. Taylor sprang out of bed and attempted to seize the bold burglar, but he jumped upandqui kly darted out of the room, closing the door iu Mr.

Taylor's face, who succeeded iu opening it just in time to see the thief disappearing out of the veranda window, through which he had en tered. Marriage of Ken. Howard's Dauffh. ter. Portland Oregonian.

A brilliant assemblage was it that gathered Wednesday night at the resi dence otUen. O. Howard, at Vancouver, and one worthy to witness the auspicious event, the marriage of his eldest daugh ter, Urace, to James I. Gray, Sec retary ot the Vancouver Transportation impany and Captain of its boats. Gen.

Howard's residence in Portland had en deared himself and family to hundreds, and as much interest was manifested in the wedding here as at the post. At 8:30 o'clock the bride and groom entered the parlor without attendants, and were made one by the Rev. George H. Atkinson, who read the marriage service. Al ter two hours had been pleasantly passed in social enjoyment and danc ing, interspersed with dainty refreshments, the merry gathering were startled by the crack of the musket and the cry of "Fire." Flames were seen in the direction of the officers' residences, and in an instant all was confusion.

The fire had broken out and was burning fiercely in the wood-house back of Col. Pollock's residence, and only the active eflbrts of officers, soldiers, and citizens saved the residence from destruction. A large fir-tree, which stood near the wood-house, took fire, and tho tall column of flame was an exhibition of fire-works compared with which sky-rockets and Roman candles would have appeared insipid. At 11 :30 o'clock the newly-mar ried couple, with the Portland guests. left on the gteamer for the city, arriving a tew minutes oetore clock.

Captain and Mrs. Gray went to the seaside yes terday morning, to toe gone several davs. They have the best wishes of a multitude of friends for a life of health, peace and happiness. A French Tragedy. French Correspondence.

A sad drama has just been enacted at uue. A widow named Julie Matbieu was married on Monday to a Quarter-master of gend'armeiie named Singier. They were on the point of leaving for their new home at Cuinon, when thev re ceived the visit of one Espel, who lived with his mother on the second floor ot the house occupied by the bride. After breakfasting togelher in the most cordial manner, embraced them, and bade them adieu. Singier then went out to fetch a cab, which was to take them to the station, but ou his return, after a lapse of ten minutes, a horrible spec tacle met his view.

pel was lying life-leas in the passage, his hand half severed from his body, and a razor tightly clasped in his hand. Seized with an awful presentiment, Singier rushed into the room where he had quitted his wife a few moments before, and found her on tho floor in a pool of blood. Her throat had been cut. At the cries of the unhappy man the neighbors poured in, and a doctor was immediately summoned, but nothing could be done, for both were dead. Jealousy would appear to have prompted the crime, and it was rumored that Espel was opposed to the marriage of the widow, whom he wanted to wed himself.
