one OF the eight victims of yesterdays
aeroplane accident caused by the fall.
ing Of Walter Brookins' machine
among a group of spectators on the
aviation field here, were doing we'll

had been forced to swerve the airship
suddenly to avoid crashing into a
crowd of spectators.
Seven other persons among whom
the machine tumbled were more or
less seriously injured. The mishap
was due to the thronging of spectators
out upon the field. Brookins in de.
scending had no room to operate the
machine and was driven to make a
sudden turn to avoid crashing among
the watchers. The tricky wind caught
the machine and sent it spinning over
backwards.

Mrs. Ida Van vaIkenbureh Tells Her
History Before Goino Abroad

oCIOTC SOln9 fNpTOdu.
New York, Aug. 11.-Mrs. Ida Van
Valkenburgh, the EIGHT million dollar
widow" sailed today on the Kaiser
Wilhelm H. She said that she was
going abroad to give herself a rest.
If she gets her divorce and ever mar
hopes to marry some man who has
never heard Of her.
. simultaneously with her departure
appeared a story of her life in a news
paper purporting to have been writ
ten by herself. 1t says in part:
II remember well my first childish
love affair. | was born and brought
up in Washington, and always lived
very quietly. Why, never even went
to the theater until was Is years old
and came to visit my aunt in New
York.
Il was about 13 years old at the
time, and he walked home with me
from prayer meeting every week.
Then sometimes he took me sleigh
riding, though there wasn't much snow
In Washington. We used to talk about
running away and going to the thea.
ter, but somehow, / never had the
courage.
Staying at the same hotel with
us was Mr.. Agnew, my first husband.
We met through mutual friends and
saw good deal Of each other. When
l was Is years old | married him.
or course, it was too young for any
girl to marry. l discovered before
long that things were not as | would
have them, but l tried to do the best
| could and by and by my baby came.
Then for while things went better.
But finally l could no longer ignore
my husbands conduct and got a d.
vorce.
81 met Mr.. Chapman through friends
of Mr.. Agnew. We were all at a din
ner one night and he seemed to take
a fancy to me.
80, for several weeks he took us
around a good bit, and we, in turn,
invited him to dine. Then-well, he
saw that | was not happy with my
husband and tactfully dropped out of
the way. OF course, after l had Sc.
cured my divorce, there was no rea-
son why l should not be happy with
any of my former friends, and Mr..
Chapman and got better and better
acquainted, and finally we were mar
ried.
my marriage with Mr.. Chapman
was most happy, except for one thing.
At that period commenced the antag-
onism of a woman, whom l consider
primarily responsible for all my trou.
bles.
She tried to make trouble between
Mr.. Chapman and myself, but always
unsuccessfully. When he died she
urged his relatives to attack, me.
paid them 100000 to avoid the row
which she had instigated. / went
abroad after Mr.. Chapman's death.
ION the same ship was Mr.. Van
Valkenburgh. He was most attentive,
and his attentions grew even more
pronounced after landed and settled
at the St, Regis.
We'll, / married him at the st. Re.
gis last November. And hadn't been
married a week before that malign
influence exercised by that other wo
man began its work"
