BALLOON STRIKES LIVE WIRES
ONE MAN DEAD; TWO SEVERE
LIZ SHOCKED BY CURRENT.
Afterward Airship Again Hits Line
and Is Set Afre and
Destroyed.

OTTAWA, Ont, September 1.-THE first
attempt at flight of the Nassr dirigtble
airship, owned and operated by Anthony
Nassr, of Toledo, Ohio, at the exhibition
grounds here yesterday. was marred by
an accident. in which one man was killed
and two others nearly lost their lives.
In the second attempt a successful
flight was made, but in bringing the bal
loon back to the grounds It caught fire
and was destroyed.
Edward Heating of Belleville, Ont. who
had been running a wheel of fortune at
the exhibition, was the man killed. The
injured are Malcolm Campbell of Glen
garry and Carl G. Wingerter. one of Mr..
Nassr's assistants.
In starting from the ground for the
first time, with Mr. Nassr on board the
airship became entangled in some wires
in front of the Aberdeen pavilion. Keat-
ing Wingerter and Campbell caught hold
of the framework of the machine to pull
it down, when they received shock of
about 1900 volts and fell to the ground
unconscious. The propeller of the ma
chine had torn the insulation off the
wires.
Proper handling revived Campbell and
Wingerter. but a half hours work failed
to resuscitate Heating. and he was pro-
nounced dead. Heating was forty-four
years of age, married, and the father of
six children.
In the second attempt the dirigible as
cended successfully, but came to earth
some distance from the fair grounds.
Last night, when bringing 1t back to the
grounds. it again came in contact with
live wire. caught fire. and. getting away
from those trying to control 1t. assembled.
and was entirely destroyed by fire, only
the iron framework remaining. 1t made
spectacular sight as 1t assembled and
burst with loud report. No one was
hurt.
