28 KILLED IN AlRSHlP
GERMAN ADMIRALTY BOARD is
AMONG THOSE SLAIN.
Three Others Die In Falls From Aero
planes--Baron Only Survivor,
Begs to Be Slain.

Berlin, Oct 20.-The newest of the
Zeppelin war airships, the LIZ, was de-
stroyed in midair by an explosion on
Friday. All but one of the % military
men were killed.
The % represented the entire
personnel of the admiralty board
which was conducting the final trial
Of the dirigible, looking to its accept
ance by the German government as
new unit of the German aerial navy,
the pilot and crew and invited
guests.
Every person that went aloft in the
big airship is dead.
Twenty-seven were killed almost in
stantly by the explosion of the gas in
the balloonettes or burned to death as
the flaming wreck fell to the ground
from height Of 900 feet.
One man, lieutenant Baron Won
Bleuel of the Queen Augusta Grenadier
Guards, a guest Of the admiralty
board, was extricated alive from the
twisted wreckage. His eyes were
burned out and he suffered other ter
rible hurts. Begging his rescuers to
kill hiEa and end his sufferings, he was
taken to a hospital, where he died at
night.
The official report Of the accident
says the explosion was due to the ig-
milton Of gas in or above the forward
gondola, but not within the body OF
the airship.
The navy was not the only sufferer
of the day through aviation accidents.
Three army officers were killed in
aeropiane flights.

FIVE DIE IN BLIZZARD
MIDDLE WEST is SWEPT BY
sNoWsToRM.
Gale Wrecks Vessels on Great Lakes
and Crops in South Suffer From
Cold Wave.

Chicago, Oct. 21.-The first snow
storm of the season blew into Chicago
Monday night on the wings of 30-mile
northwest wind. The snow did not
last long, but it was of the blizzard
variety for short time. Wisconsin
suffered severely from gale that
swept the state.
Dispatches from widely scattered
Wisconsin cities brought the same
news-that a frightful blizzard was
raging. Railroad traffic is practically
at a standstill; telegraph and tele-
phone service is demoralized, and in
one city, Ashland, the street cars were
forced to suspend operation because
of the snow
Other points in the Mississippi val
ley where the sudden advent Of win
ter was reported included st. Paul
and Minneapolis, registering tempera-
lures from ten to twelve degrees be-
low freezing. 1t was the coolest Octo.
Der day for the Twin Cities since Octo-
Der 1S, 1896, and a snowstorm, al
mostsof blizzard proportions, ragged all
afternoon and night.
The Wisconsin blizzard, however,
easily outclassed all other reports OF
bad weather. The snow belt at mid
night was from Fond du Lac, $50
miles north of Chicago, across the
state to the west and north to the
Lake Superior line
All shipping on Lake Superior has
sought shelter, and three men were
drowned in Chequamegou bay at Ash
land when their gasoline launch was
upset by the heavy seas. Details of
the Ashland blizzard are meager.
Two hunters on Shawano lake, George
McEachron and Thomas Stoltz Of
Milwaukee, were drowned when the
gale upset their skiff half mile from
shore.
A dispatch from Alpena, Mich,
states that the wooden steamer Nor
walk of Detroit was driven on the
rocks at False Presque isle.
