one of the most marvellous performs

He lost his sight when about year

Then he entered medical college,
took grueling course, and came
forth fullfledged surgeon. 1t was
not an empty honor. lie had train
ed his ears and his finger tips till he
was a keen diagnostician and good

He practiced for some years and
with success. Then, in some man.

FLYING MACHINES
COLLIDE IN M|DA|R
Howard Gill SO Terribly
Crushed That He Dies on
Way to Hospital.
BY International News Service.

BY International News Service.
CHICAGO, Sept 14.-Colliding in
midair with u swiftly moving monoplane
driven by Georges Mestache, Howard
Gill, one of the most brilliant aviators
of the Wright force, was driven to tho
ground this afternoon at the Cicero field
and so terribly crushed that be died on
the way 10 the hospital. BY most mar
velous quick wit, Mestache depressed
the head of his machine and though be
crashed TO the ground second or two
later he escaped with severe cuts and
bruises on the face and head. Suffering
more from shock than his bodily iuiur-
les, he was taken TO the same hospital
as Gill.
The accident occurred just at the clos.
Of a day of brilliant and exciting fly-
ing, and it fulfilled foreboding that
had haunted Gill for months.
Only two days ago after having been
forced to make a quick descent by rea-
son of high wind combined with en-
gine trouble, Gill remarked:
Intended to Quit Game.
I'm beginning to be afraid II r
live through this meet ] am going 10
cut out aviation forever
Little more than a year apo, at the
aviation meet in Grant park, Howard
Gill had narrow escape from death.
He had made a successful fight and
was attempting to land when the wheels
of his landing gear struck deep rut
and the machine turned over, flinging
Gill headlong and crashing down on top
GUS injury simply because his motor
landed alongside instead of on him.
Last January he had another narrow
escape at Dominquez field Los Angeles.
Night had fallen on the field and he
was flying Mt height; of about $50 feet
when he shut of his motor and attempt
cd to volplane to earth.
Crashed Into Fence.
In the darkness ho failed to see a
wire fence, against which his machine
dashed, and he was flung out. breaking
several ribs and sustaining severe in.
ternal injuries.
As soon as no was out of the hospital
he again started to fly, despite the pro-
tests Of his family and friends in Bal
timore, and only a month ago when at
tempting to land at Cicero flying field in
practice fight he was again injured,
His Wright racer had landed and he
was skidding along the ground when
one of the landing wheels struck hum.
mock and again he was flung against u
fence, That time, however, he man
aged to leap from his seat just as his
mechanicians seized the wings of the
rapidly moving biplane. swerved it |
away from the fence and Gill escaped
with merely severe shaking up.
But all Of these various accidents
tended TO worry him and his remark of
two days ago was regarded by his fellow
avistors in tho nature almost of n
prophecy. |
