Crossed the Alps
in Flying Machine.

The great feature of crossing the
snow capped Alpine barrier between
Switzerland and Italy in a heavier
than-air machine was accomplished
FRIDAY by George Chavez, the young
Peruvian aviator The plucky hero of
the exploit, however, fell and was bad
ly injured as the result of an accident
that occurred just as he had completed
the most arduous and nerve-racking
portion of task he had set out to
accomplish, flight from Brig, Switzer-
land, across the Alps to Milan, in
Italy, in all distance of seventy-five
miles.
Both his legs were broken, his left
thigh is fractured, and his body is
badly confused; but the physicians in
attendance are of the opinion that
these hurts will not prove fatal and
that unless unlocked for complications
ensue Chavez will be about in two
months.
The accident occurred as Chavez was
endeavoring to make a landing at
DomodossCla. The Alps had been
crossed successfully and the aviator
was descending with the power OF his
machine cut off.
When about thirty feet above the
ground sudden gust of wind seemed
to catch the monoplane, which turned
over and fell. When the crowds that
had been watching the descent ran up
they found Chavez lying bleeding and
unconscious amid the twisted wreck
age.
Fifty miles away lay Milan, the goal
Chavez was seeking in an endeavor to
win prize OF $4,000 offered by the
Italian Aviation Society. Chavez had
lost the race, but he had crossed the
Alps in flying machine.
