Niagara Falls, N Lincoln
Beachey, with the whir of his biplane
motor drowned in the roar of the cata-
rsct and man and machine momenta-
rily obscured in spray and mist, the
California aviator after circling above
the falls, swooped beneath the arches
OF the upper steel bridge and down
the gorge almost TO the whirlpool
Rising again between the sides OF
the lower river, Beachey SCARED to the
Canadian side, where he made sue
cessful landing. twas he first time
that a bird-man had cut through the
air currents and mist clouds and
leaping foam caused by Niagara Falls
and rapids
To add TO the difficulties OF Beach
ey's flight. light rain began TO fall
as he took his seat in the biplane
shortly before o'clock He mounted
upwards. moving always in the direc-
ton of the cataract, and when he
crossed the American Falls he was
about 1000 feet in the air.
In great sweeping circle he
swung toward the north and over the
Horse Shoe falls
Down the river he flew, almost TO
the lower steel arch bridge, two miles
below the falls. then coursed to the
west and south again, always drop
ping as he circled.
On his second circle he went well
to the southwest before beginning his
low flight toward the upper steel arch
bridge, under which he was to pass
Swinging again to the north and trav-
cling about fifty miles an hour. he
went probably not more than 200 feet
over the Horse Shoe and through its
spray.
Once over the cataract he lowered
his plane and rushing with the wind
st a speed estimated al sixty miles an
hour, he dipped quickly under the
arch.
AS he did so he caught some OF the
wash off the outlet of the power tun-
mel which shoots over the rocky side
of the precipice.
Al no time from his final dip until
he was clear of the structure was the
biplane more than thirty feet above
the spume.
The space through which he flew is
1ss feet high and barely 100 feet from
side TO side This distance from the
brink of the falls to the bridge in
which he made the dip is about 400
yards.
Beachey will repeat the flight. The
crowd WAS estimated at Isl, GOO per-
sons.
