LINCOLN BEACHEY
KILLED At FAIR.
Worlds Greatest Flyer Falls to
Death in MonopIane.
WINGS FAIL IN DARING FALL
Drops Into Bay OFF San Francisco
Thousands See Accident-Body
Found in Mud Forty Feet
Under Water.

San Francisco, March 16.-Death
came to Lincoln Beachey, world-famed
aviator, Sunday afternoon, when ne
dropped through the air for z,ooo
feet, before thousands of spectators
at the Panama-Pacific International
exposition. The accident which enueu
the life of the man who mao oeneo
death so long came when the wings
of his new monoplane collapsed while
Beachey was attempting to right the
machine after a perpendicular drop
through space Of several hundred feet.
The stress on the new monoplane
was too great and one of the wings
was seen to fly upward ike that of
wounded bird In a flash the second
WING of the monoplane gave way and
the shining engine and propeller
blades cleaned in the sunshine as the
crippled machine fell
There was no chance for escape, al
though Beachey and his collapsed
monoplane landed in the water of
San Francisco bay. The force of the
fall was so great that the machine
and it's daring pilot were buried in
the mud of the bay in 40 feet of water.
He struck the water near the United
States army transport docks in a mar
row patch of water between two trans
ports swinging at anchor.
Immediately rescue crew was
dispatched from the battleship Ore
gon, which was lying in the stream.
After two hours the machine and body
were dug from the mud by diver
from the Oregon's crew. Beachey
was found entangled in the wires OF
the wrecked machine and all of the
bones in his body were broken.
Beachey was born March 8, 1887, in
San Francisco. His father is in the
Soldiers home at Dayton, o.. and his
mother lives at Morenci, Mich. When
he was thirteen years old he became
acquainted with a man who was try
ing to solve the problem of air naviga-
ton They manufactured balloon.
Beachey took the initial trip. 1t was
disappointing, and his partner became
discouraged and quit. In 1904 Beachey
drove a dirigible balloon in Oakland,
Cal Capt. Thomas Baldwin engaged
him on the spot, and the two toured
the country.
With the dirigible Beachey made
many flights. He circled Washington
monument He landed in front of the
White House in Washington and car
ried a message to the president.
Beachey's first aeroplane was of his
own manufacture. He broke up this
machine during a flight. Finally. get
ting machine that would stand his
stunts, Beachey's career as demon
of the air began. One Of his first dare
devil feats was to fly under the sus-
pension bridge at Niagara Falls
Beachey turned spirals while upside
down. 1t has been estimated that 90
100000 have seen Beachey fly.

Gardner Waldron Fatally
Injured When Thrown
from Wagon.

A most distressing accident
occurred at Wilder Tuesday
when Gardner Waldrons
a ID year old boy living at that
place. was thrown from a wagon
and almost instantly killed.
The young man was driving a
team of horses hitched to the
running gears OF a wagon when
the fatal accident occurred. The
body was not found until 10 or
Is minutes afterward and the
supposition is that one of the
horses had become heightened
and jumped, with the result that
the boy was thrown from the
wagon. The wheels passed over
his shoulders and neck and his
neck was broken, death occurrs
ing almost instantly 1t Is not
known for certain whether the
broken neck was received IN the
fall from the wagon or by being
crushed beneath the wheels
The funeral OF the unfortunate
young man was held at the
Methodist church at Wilder at
LOO O'Clock this afternoon. Rev.
