AlRMAN COOKE KILLED
FALLS TO DEATH AT PUEBLO BE-
FORE 10000 PEOPLE.
Plunees 1900 Feet When Plane
Strikes Air Pocket and Crushed
Beyond Recognition.
Western Newspaper Union News Service

| Western NEWSPAPER Union News Service
| Pueblo-Aviator Weldon Il. Cooke,
%. of Sandusky, Ohio. who flew from
| Colorado Springs TO Pueblo in the first
| .ong-distance flight ever executed in
| Colorado, was killed instantly at the
State Fair grounds when his Wright
biplane plunged from an altitude OF
| 1000 feet to the ground. Ten thou
sand people, inside the fair grounds
inclosure. including Governor Ammons
and staff OF Denver, witnessed the
| spectacle.
| The cause of the accident never will
| be known. but is believed by Cookies
mechanicians to have been due to an
air pocket
The fault did not lie in the motor OF
the car, as it IVES humming with per-
feet regularity, even until it struck
the earth. Those who We're watching
the flight with field glasses say that
the support suddenly appeared to drop
rom beneath the car which for TWEEN
~ minutes had been soaring over Pu-
eblo at an altitude of from 900 to
5000 feet. The biplane pointed its
nose downward and dropped like a
p!ummet.
Cooke. who was graduated student
OF Lincoln Beachey and licensed as a
pilot by the Aero Club of America, re-
tanned his composure when he first
realized that the machine was beyond
control. He struggled with the steer
ing apparatus, but the rush of air, as
the machine plunged downward at a
240-mile clip, struck him full in the
face, sappng his breath, and he un-
doubtedly was unconscious, and per-
haps dead, when the flying machine
struck the earth.
Horrcr-stricken crowds rushed to
the point Immediately beyond the
southeast corner of the fair grounds,
where the crash occurred, and found
him buried completely in the wreck
age. Cooke was dead when the first
person reached his side.
Cooke made several flights in Hay
den recently, and was scheduled to
haye flown every day during the State
Fair
Cookies body was crushed beyond
recognition by the weight of the ell
gine. which fell directly upon his head
and chest. Nothing is known of his
family by the officials of the fair asso-
citation. He was under contract with
Lincoln Beachey of Chicago. under
whose direction the flights were being
staged.
