Miss QuImby and Manager Of
Meet Fall 1000 Feet.
BODIES DEEP IN THE Mud
Monoplane Is Upset by eusty Wind
and Famous Aviatress and Passen-
ger Plunge Into Bay.

ger Plunge Into Bay.
Miss Harriet Quimby, of New York,
the first woman to win an aviator s
license in America, and the first wo-
man to cross the English channel In
an aeroplane, was instantly killed with
her passenger, W. A. P. Willard, man
ager of the Boston aviation meet, at
Atlantic, near Boston, when her Ber-
liot monoplane fell into Dorchester
bay from a height of 1000 feet.
The accident happened when Miss
Quimby and Willard were returning
from trip over the Boston harbor to
Boston light, a distance OF twenty
miles. The flight was made in twenty
minutes.
The Berliot, one of the latest models
of military monoplanes, circled the
aviation field and scared out over the
Savin Hill Yacht club, just outside
the aviation grounds.
Heading back into the eight mile
gusty wind, Miss Quimby started to
volplane The angle was too sharp and
one of the gusts caught the tail of the
monoplane, throwing the machine up
perpendicular.
For an instant it poised there. Then,
sharply outlined against the setting
sun, Willard was thrown or jumped
clear of the chassis, followed almost
Immediately by Miss Quimby. Hurl-
ing over and over, the two figures shot
downward, striking the water twenty
feet from shore.
They splashed out of sight a second
before the monoplane plunged down
fifteen feet away.
1t was low tide and the water was
only five feet deep. Men from the
spot quickly and, leaping overheard,
dragged the bodies out of the mud,
into which they had sunk deeply.
Death probably was instantaneous.
Both bodies were badly crushed.
Several of Miss Quimby's bones were
broken and there were many large
bruises. Willard, who weighed 100
pounds, hit the water face first and
over one eye there was cash from
which the blood was flowing. He, too,
sustained several fractures and bruis-
es. The cothing of both was torn and
the bodies were covered with mud.
Flying high overhead at the time
of the fall was Miss Blanche Stuart
Scott, another aviatress. taking part
in the meet, which had entered upon
its second day
From her high altitude Miss Scott
had watched Miss Quimby's splendied
flight and was nearby when the gus
upset the monoplane. In the excite
n ent of the moment no one noticed
the lone aviatrice, but when Miss
Quimby's body was brought ashore all
eyes were directed aloft and Miss
Scott was seen making sweeping cir
cles over the field at height of about
500 feet.
Twice she started to descend, but
each time she was seen to falter. In
another moment. summoning all her
nerve, she turned the nose of her ma
chine downward and landed safely,
collapsing in her seat before anyone
could reach her.

ThiS H0nze-Mdde Cough
Syrup ECiEE Surprise You
Stops Even WhOOpfng Cough
Quickly. A Family Supply
at Small Cost.

Here is a homemade remedy that
takes hold of a cough instantly, and will
usually cure the most stubborn case in
"a hours. This recipe makes a pint
enough for a whole family. You couldn't
buy as much or as good ready-made
cough syrup for $3.50.
Mix one pint of granulated sugar with
"a pint of warm water, and stir Q
minutes. Put 2115 ounces of Pinex (fifty
cents WORTHY in a pint bottle, and add
the Sugar Syrup. This keeps perfectly
and has a pleasant taste-children like
it. Braces up the appetite and is slightly
laxative, which helps end a cough.
You probably know the medical value
of pine in treating asthma, bronchitis
and other throat troubles, sore lungs,
etc. There is nothing better. Pinex is
sne most valuable concentrated compound
of Norway white pine extract, rich in
guaiacol and all the natural healing pine
elements. Other preparations viii not
work in this formula
The prompt results from this inexpen-
sive remedy have made friends for it in
thousands of homes in the United States
and Canada, which explains why the
plan has been initiated often, but never
successfully.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction, or
money promptly refunded. goes with this
recipe. Your druggist has Pinex, or viii
get it for You. If not, send to The
Pinex Co., Fit. Wayne. Ind.

Government Makes 1t Necessary for
Protection of Forests.
Fighting forest fires is one duty inn
posed on railroads passing through or
near. forest reserves by the govern
ment. The Northwestern has intro
duced oil burner engines on its Black
Hills and wyoming divisions, largely
for the purpose of avoiding the risk
of starting such fires. The Burlington
having no large oil fields near its
present lines has not employed oil
burners and is still compelled to fight
fires along it's right of way.
Through the forest reserves in the
Black Hills the Burlington is now
clearing the land of all trees and veg
citation for a distance of two hundred
feet from the center of the track. This
space must be kept cleared to mini
mize the danger from fire. burrows
are plowed near the outer edge of this
clearing.
During the past summer a gasoline
motor ca with a crew of two men
trailed trains over the Burlington
Black Hills lines to put out fires start
ed by locomotives Where the trains
climbed heavy grades it is necessary
to work the engines very hard, and
when an engine works hard. especially
while burning coal, it throws out a
great deal Of fire.
