Aviator Besehey Mixes Short But
Sensational r! ghi.

Brockton, Mass, Oct. although
today's crowd at the Brockton fair
was not a record breaker, ii is esti-
mated that 10000 persons were inside
the grounds today. A high wind made
it necessary to call off the aviation
program of Harry n. Atwood and
Lincoln Reachev, but Beachey, again
despite the protests of the manage
ment dared the gale and made flight
of - or 10 minutes. He rose directly
against the wind and it seemed to the
spectators that he could make no
progress. so slowly did his machine
fight it's way. In making the turn to
come back over the grounds Beachey
had what he called the first scare of
his life. just as he was turning around
a gust of wind heavier than usual
almost hurled him from his seat For
a moment his feet were torn from the
controls and the biplane was about to
plunge TO the ground when Beachey
regained the mastery of his machine
and alighted safely.
Lovers of horse racing had their fill
of the sport today with nine races
three of which were brought over from

Opera House, Hotel and Seven
Other Buildings Burned.
includes Ten Stores, -Four Tene-
ments and One Residence.
The Loss 0nIy Partially Insured.
No Casualties Reported.

Ashland, Me, Oct. 5.-0ne- third of
the business section of Ashland was
destroyed by fire today. Nine build
ings, all of which were of wooden con-
struction, We're burned and the loss
was estimated at 100000. The Ash
land House, three-story hotel which
had been closed all summer. and
Loane's opera house were the prin-
cipal buildings burned.
The fire broke out in the clothing,
boot and shoe store of f. +. Daniels
on Main street from some unknown
cause and swept through the line of
wooden buildings without hindrance to
the corner of Exchange street. The
Loane Opera house, a three story
block. was located on the corner of
Main and Exchange streets and this
quickly burst into flames. adding TO
the excitement and the terror of the
situation.
From the Opera house the fire jump
! ed across the street and ignited the
. Ashland house, which Was the last
building OF consequence to burn. This
might have been saved but for the fact
that it had been closed all summer and
the boarders were living at a nearby
lake resort There was no one to pro-
teet IL against the flying embers and
the roof soon was seen to be burning.
The hotel was levelled to the ground.
The nine buildings were closely
clustered and strong northwest wind
made short work of them. licking them
up like finder The means for fighting
fire were small and the distance was
too great to secure help from other
towns so the fire held full sway and
burned itself out.
Help was summoned from Presque
Isle, the nearest point, which is 20
miles distant, but the request was
withdrawn when ii was seen that the
fire could do no further damage.
The fire was discovered shortly after
O'Clock and was considered under
control at o'clock, although it burned
throughout fhe day. Telephone COM
municatIon was severed by the burning
of the fires, but the exchange was not
burned out. The call for help was sent
by lineman who climbed telephone
pole but other than this there was no
communication with the OUTSIDE NoIlu
until we'll into the forenoon.
In addition to the Opera house and
hotel, the destroyed buildings contain
ed 10 stores, four dwellings and one
residence. The places of business burn
ed out were those of y. koslosky,
clothier: w. W. Loane. hardware: J.

CURE, fruit dealer: w. j. Campbell,
druggist; L. f. Daniels, clothier;
Charles H McQuarrie, grocer; and T.
W. MCGOWAN, jeweller.
The residence burned was that of j.
F. Mcclure. The four dwellings We're
in the second story of two-story build
ings in which the most of the stores
We're located.
The principal loss was on the opera
House block and the stores on the
ground floor This was estimated at
SsE, 900 The losses were partly covered
by insurance.
Although the fire broke out IN the
night time and there was great excite
mont. there fortunately We're no &C
