san Francisco, March 14.-The
spectacular career of Lincoln Beach
ey. one of the most daring of Ameri-
can ayiat1rs, was. ended today when
he fell to his death at the Panama
exposition in sight Of thousands Of
spectators.
Beachey was completing his second
flight Of the day when the accident
occurred. Having previously clectri-
fled the crowd with series of aerial
somersaults the airman sought to
make an additional thrill by making
one of the sensational perpendicular
drops which usually featured his
flights
The fatal fall was attributed to the
fact that Beachey entrusted his life
today for the first time to a new mon
oplane. An exceptionally large crowd
had been attracted to the fair grounds
to see whether he would attempt the
same breath-taking stunts in the new
machine that he had performed in his
trim little bipane
First Flight Successful.
on the first flight all went well and
the aviator's familiar tricks were in
dulged in with the exception Of the
perpendicular drop This Beachey
had saved for the climax 1t proved
too much Of strain for the frame Of

pineapple grower today has to expend
from $f2 to So per ton to produce his

for first-gFade pineapples and one
half these prices for second-grade
products. As result the small grow
er is now seeking market for his
fresh fruit In the United States. How
ever, the business Of shipping can
hardly be carried on satisfactorily

that better arrangements could be
made IL there were q branch of the

Office could undoubtedly prevent the
