4 GREAT U. S. FLYING CAMP.
French Writer Tells of Preparation
 Made by Our AviatOrs.

Paris, Sept. A correspondent of the Matin who visited an American aviation camp in France expresses surprise at the number of men for whom preparations are being made and at what has been accomplished.
 "A road eight miles long has been built in less than a month by a com pany of American engineers" he writes. "A surprising thing is the rapidity with which everything has been accommodated here. 1t is scarcely thirty days since the Amer ican soldiers arrived at this point. Flying will begin about September 15.
 The American school is near large French and British aviation schols, and the camp is about 3,750 acres in extent. The engineer off, cer who accompanied me explained the differences between the Ameri- can and British problems in equip ment. He said: The British re- ceive all material ready to set up We make our tents, cut our canvas, and square our beams. Being at such a great distance from home, it IS necessary for us to establish ouF workshops here.

HORRIBLE RAILWAY ACCIDENT ON T.P.
In TeNarkana Yards Big Passenger Locomotive Turned Over and the Fireman and Engineer Were
 Fatally Scalded.

Texarkana, Sept. 5-A horrible railway accident occurred here yes terday afternoon at o'clock, when a big oil burner Texas X Pacific To- |comotive turned over in the yards, resulting in Fireman Tom Allen be- ing scalded so badly that he died 70 minutes afterward and Engineer Al Coubcrly dying at S:30 o'clock after suffering great agony.
 Frank Washburn, railway mail clerk, also was somewhat scalded and Bob Doty received burns, being injured while rescuing the engine men from the wreck.
 The accident was a most unusual one, railway men state, and the eX- act cause was not explained. Al } o'clock Texas X Pacific passenger
 train No. was pulling into the yards for entering union station. As the engine had passed under the Texas viaduct it ran onto the
 switch frog, but the pony truck, composed of the four small wheels supporting the engine boiler, went on one track while the main trucks passed on the other. This caused the great engine to spread the tracks and instantly both tracks were rend-
 ed apart, ties and rails breaking like sticks of candy.
 The locomotive forged it's way over ties for a distance of about 100 feet, wobbling and wavering as it
 travelled, and finally falling on it's side was smashed into an indescrib-
 able mass of junk.
 Tom Allen, the big fireman. a man weighing about 225 pounds, leaped from the cab, but striking ear on the next track his body rebound ed and fell under the wreck of the engine and was deluged with the escaping scalding water from the boilers.
 Al Couberly. engineer. stuck to his cah to the last, attending to such details as throwing his emergency brake lever, and opening the luber- eating and other valves. which pre- vented the great boiler from explod- ing. He was caught in the intricate Iwreckage of pipes, metal, plates, etc, of his engine and literally cooked by the sealding water. He extricated himself and with his flesh hanging from his arms, made a few steps away from the engine and fell un- conscious The passengers on the
 train felt no undue shock from the wreck, thinking it was but an awk- ward stop.
