BARELY ESCAPE DEATH
Big Dirigible, Disabled by Accident,
Takes Swift Plunge
to Earth.

SCHWETZINGEN. Germany. April 13
The fourteen passengers carried by the
Schuette-Lanz dirigible balloon on It's first
flight this year had q narrow escape from
death this morning near here. When
the dirigible. with the inventor, Prof.
Schuette. acting as pilot. had reached an
altitude Of few hundred feet the vertical
steering gear damned and the airshp
plunged at full speed to the earth. where
it buried its bows and the forward gon-
dola in the ground.
Mechanician Seriously Hurt.
The six inmates Of this gondola, to-
gether with PORT. Schuete and a me-
chanic. were thrown out with great vfo-
lence, but nobody except the mechanic.
who had his breast crushed in, suffered
any serious injury.
The dirigible. with the remaining pas
sengers, then rose again rapidly. The
water ballast containers had been smash
ed. and the airship was blown helplessly
to the other side of the Rhine. where q
descent was eventually effected without
further mishap.
The dirigible is OF unique construction,
its frame being a rigid one of wood,
while its dimensions are about the same
as those Of the Zeppelin airships.
