passing and the aviator took a course al
most directly over the train. He held this
position until after he had passed Grant
vile. six miles east of Topeka, still flying
at height of 1000 feet Here he began
to encounter treacherous air currents,
which tilted his frail machine dangerous
ly, and he dropped to LOCO feet, but. find
ing the air still bad, he decided to alight
and wait until machinists came up.
He attempted to alight in a small mead
ow nine miles east OF Topeka, but missed
it and struck in cornfeld. AS the ma
chine bounded over the uneven ground
two of the ribs Of the lower plane were
broken. These were repaired when the
machinists arrived. and at 8:34 a second
start was made.
Engine Working Badly.

the aviator landed again at $40. His en-
CINE was working badly and the plane
which was repaired at Granville was
broken again.
At $40 Mars resumed his flight, but
was compelled by a choppy wind to land
at $50 at Midland. The radiator of the
engine was leaking, but this was repaired
and Mars hoped to resume his flight as
soon as the wind died down.

making a turn when he either lost con-
troll of his engine or shut of the power
too soon. At any rate. the aeroplane
dipped and started for the earth. He
tried to right it so that he could glide
down, but could not, and it smashed
into the earth, breaking the pneumatic
tires OF his wheels.
The aviator fell out, but without
enough force to hurt himself.
