TAILOR PERISHES
WITH PARACHUTE

PARIS, February 4.-Francols Rel
chelt, aged S5, a ladies' tailor, was in
stantly killed this morning, when a
parachute which he had invented
failed to work as he jumped from a
stage Of the Eiffel tower nearly 200
feet from the ground
Reichelt had been working for two
years on his invention, which he in
tended for use by aviators when aero
planes began to tumble because of ac-
cidents.
The parachute was made of silk,
and was attached to the back like a
soldiers knapsack. It weighed less
than twenty pounds.
Reichelt assembled to the first stage
of the tower, which is about 1877 feet
from the ground. He placed a table
near the edge facing the Seine and
got ready for the jump, while crowd
of reporters and cinematographers
awaited him on the ground. Reichelt
jumped out from the table with the
parachute on his back. For a second
it seemed as if the parachute was
about to open in accordance with the
theory of the inventor; but it shrunk
together again, and he fell like a
stone, striking the ground in less than
four seconds. He was picked up dead.
His legs and spinal column We're
broken, and his body made hole sew
eral inches deep in the frozen ground.
Despite today's accident, Aviator
Guillaume announces that he will test
a parachute on February 10 by ascend
ing 900 feet in an aeroplane and then
jumping off
BY another coincidence the death is
announced today of Captain Lega
muet, an army aviator who fell 1SC
feet at Versailles on Saturday while
making fight at the training school
there.

The theory of oil combustion with

isfactory results, but the application
of the Moore. & Scott system is by
far the most advanced and successful
of any yet devised

using oil for fuel, and on behalf of the
British government an agent viii ar
rive next week specially detailed to
report on the efficiency of the new
system.

JUST FISH STORIES
5sasssss s3:s 1929 sass5

1t is reported that Louis Den
ton while walking down the
banks Of the Muskrat last Mon
day casting for trout, SAW an
old cider barrel that had caught
against a log, filled with water
through a small hole in one end
and sunk. He cast near one end
Of the barrel and felt a strike On
pulling his hook would not bulge
50 he Investigated, thinking that
perhaps his hook had caught in
the barrel. He found that a large
trout had caught the bait as it
went past the bunghole, and had
swallowed it, but was SO large
himself that be could not pull
through the hole. The trout had
probably gone into the barrel
last year and stayed through
the winter, the current OF the
stream bringing him food until
he was so large that be could
not get out. All who doubt this
story are not real fishermen.
