A Strange Collision.

Berlin was the scene of a coAMeian between a horse car and a balloon recently. A captive military balloon, broke loose during a squall, and drove across the Tempelhof field, dragging with it the soldiers who were holding it. On reaching the street, though its spfed was checked by Its carrying away some telegraph wires, it hit a horse car violently enough to upset it with its passengers. Two of the soldiers who held on were badly hurt.
