PECK KILLED IN FALL
AVIATOR PLUNGES TO DEATH At
CHICAGO AIR MEET.
Caught by Gust of Wind While Doing
Daring Stunts, He Loses
Control.

Chicago, Sept. 13.-Caught by a
sharp gust of wind when about 200
feet from the ground, Aviator Paul
Peck and his Columbia biplane were
hurled to the ground late Wednesday
afternoon at Cicero flying field and
the brilliant young birdman was SO
terribly crushed that he died later at
st. Anthony de Padua hospital.
He was descending from his last
contemplated flight of the day in the
biplane which he personally devel-
oped and which was expected to per-
form wonders in the aviation meet
beginning Thursday.
Five times he had circled down
ward through the air M was scarce
ly 200 feet from the ground when sud
denly something went wrong. From
the long, birdlike swoop the biplane
suddenly swerved, quivered and then
tipped sharply downward.
Fully aware Of his dangerous pre-
dicament, Peck struggled with his
controls and for an instant appeared
to have r%egained the mastery of the
air, but an instant later and the ma
chine again dipped and as the specta-
tors groaned in horror biplane and
aviator dropped like a plummet.

Officers Of Training Station at North
Chicago Go to Scene and Succeed
In Rescuing Several-Five Men Are
Found to be Missing.

Chicago.-Ffve naval apprentices
were drowned in Lake Michigan and
five more are missing and probably will
be added to the list of dead of the re-
snlt of a pleasure sail undertaken by
q boatload OF young recruits from the
naval training station at Lake Bluff,
III. The boys put out in a cutter in
charge of Chief Gunner's Mate M.
Negis. The boat has seats for sixty
men and was about half full, though
no count could be obtained just af-
ter the accident of the exact number
who set sail. In an hour practically
all the recurits were incapacitated by
sea-sickness, and in a squall that
sprang upthe heavy cutter became un-
manageable.
Negis, seeing the danger attempted
to anchor about 200 feet off shore.
The hawser parted and in sight of
several hundred residents of the fash
ionable lake shore colony all the lads
were thrown into the water when the
cutter rolled over.
Negis and a dozen of the appren-
tees came to shore by swimming or
clinging to oars. Onlookers rushed
into the water and aided the drowning
men to safety, but when the dead and
rescued were counted up at least five
were found to be missing.

Conservation by Bridge-Dam System.
Miller.-If present discussion of a
proposed plan to replace the steel
bridges of western South Dakot and
further up in the northwest with ce-
ment dams to hold the water back
realizes then a vast area of country
is likely t. be transformed into a re-
gion of lists, lakes and small
streams, 2'' an agricultural section
formed elUal to the most fertile in
Amer. and many who a "emi.
grated" away from that country on
account of drouth will come back to
look upon a glorious garden spot,
though some of them may threaten
suits against the state or county for
changing their homestead from a dry
farm to a ranch of water and grass,
where tilling will have to be resorted
to before crops can be raised. Hun
dreds of thousands of dollars are now
spent each year for steel bridges. 1t
Is claimed that this money will so far
towards making the cement dams with
sideways over which the people can
travel. This system followed up clear
to the mouth of the mountain streams
would prevent flood in the spring,
east, as well as making a vast area
of country fertile and %populous. Aid
from the state n government may
also be asked to hasten the new idea
to realization.
