FALLS
FROM SKIES
TO DEATH
DARING AER0NAUT MEETS A
FRIGHTFUL FATE, WITH AS
SISTANT, IN AN AIRSHIP IN
PARIS.

PARIS. May 12.-The death of Senior
Severe, the Brazilian aeronaut, who, with
an assistant, was killed this morning by
the explosion of his airship LaPaix, In
which he was making trial trip, created
terrible CONSERVATION.
Senior Severe had invited a number OF
friends to witness the ascension and his
wife and a number of relatives were FOL
lowing the course Of the balloon in motor
cars. ..--.
Suddenly the spectators were Mortified
by q bright flash of light, followed by a
loud explosion. The balloon which at this
time was 1,500 feet above the ground, fell
rapidly. landing on the roof of a house.
The aeronaut fell into the avenue Du
Marine and was dashed to pieces. The
bones of his legs were forced through the
soles Of his boots.
The engineer, who accompanied niHl'
was burned to DEATH
The accident is said to have been caused
by leakage of gas. KEN
Senior Severe started with the inten-
ton of sailing to the military parade
ground at Issy. and large number OF ms
relatives and friends were proceeding in
the direction of that village five miles
southwest of Paris.
with an engineer, named Sachet, Severe
sailed out of his balloon house near the
boulevard de Vanguard at $50 a. m, in
excellent spirits and full of confidence.
The aeronaut put his airship through Sc
ries of evolutions, before starting in the
direction of Issy.
There seemed to be some hitch with the
steering gear, and the rear propelling
screw turned with difficulty. Nevertheless,
after several stoppages. the airship sailed
off. moving steadily enough through a
light breeze. Suddenly a puff of wind
caught the ship and whirled' it over the
Avenue du Marine.
The ship turned completely around and
veered about in a fashion showing that
control of her had been lost.
Then from the center of the outer en-
velope a tongue Of flame darted out. This
was followed by loud report. resembling
cannon shot and the ship sank like
stone falling on the roof of house,
thence into some trees and finally reaching
the avenue Du Marine. almost on top of its
occupants who had previously been pre-
cipitated TO the stone pavement.
The fearfully mangled corpses of Seve-
70 and Sachet were conveyed to a neigh
boring police station. The bodies pre-
scented horrible spectacle and especially
Of Sachet. t'rf s.
The flame which caused the explosion
burned the engineer in a most shocking
manner. 49,. +t. ~
Practically not a bone of either victim
was left unfractured and both skulls were
