shore of Maryland. which even now is
secluded from the rest of the world,
although but q short distance as the
crow flies, from Baltimore. was at the
time of Tweed's flight even more re-
mote. Some people now believe that
Eastman may have remembered that
Tweed came here and that this fact
determined him to seek shelter in this
unfrequentel part Of the world.
It was from here that Tweed was
eventually taken. on a yacht to Hamp-

AIRSHIP CAUGHT ON WIRE
People Who Tried to Release 1t
Shocked and One Killed.

Ottawa, Ont, Sept ia peculiar
airship accident occurred at the OF
tawa exhibition today when Aviator
Nasar. of ST. Louis. attempted a flight
with a dirigible airship. The propel-
Ter caught an electric light wire and
checked the ascent. The crowd see
ing the trouble rushed to catch the
falling dirigible. The propeller had
stripped the insulation off the electric
wire and as fast as people touched
the metal frame work of the balloon
they formed a current with the earth
and were knocked down. Twenty per-
sons werer endered helpless in less
than a minute. Four of these were so
badly shocked and burned that they
had to be removed to hospital. One
of them, Edward Kaitting, of Belle
VILE. died.
