western Newspaper Union News Service.
Wray, Colo, Sept. 20.-Exploslon of
the gas tank In a Curtiss- Humphreys
Orlole airplane, following a 1O0-foot
fall, resulted in the death here of
John McGinnis, 81, an airplane me.
chanic, and son of w. d. McGinnis,
state representative and prominent
banker; of this town. Alexander
("Red'0 Lendrum of Denver was
| plotting the machine. 1t crashed to
the ground and burst into flames. Len
drum was badly burned when he at
tempted to rescue McGinnis There
We're few witnesses to the disaster,
which occurred one mile north of the
city.
Swapping of guy wire attached to
the rudder of the plane is said to have
caused the catastrophe. The machine
was coming out of tail spin, prepa-
ratory to landing.
The body of the mechanic was
burned to a crisp before it could be
extricated from the blazing wreckage.
The machine was almost entirely
demolished.
Following airplane exhibitions at
Burlington, Colo, the two aviators
started for Wray. Just before land
ing, the pilot began a series of tail
spins. When scarcely 100 feet in the
air and as he was coming out of the
last spin, the rudder failed to operate,
owing, it is believed, to the broken
guy wire.
Tile machine crashed nose down to
the earth. A deafening explosion fol-
lowed as the gas tank blew up. The
flaming oil spread over the machine.
McGinnis, seated in the cockpit, was
injured and overcome by the fumes
and flames. Lendrum, freeing him
self from the wreckage, rushed into
the fire, endeavoring to rescue his
companion. The terrific heat drove
him back. He and Steve Briggs,
farmer, who saw the accident and hur-
ried to the wreck, were forced to
stand helplessly by as McGinnis was
burned.
The flames were finally extin-
guished and the body of the mechanic
removed
Officials of the Curtiss- Humphreys
Airplane Company declared here that
John McGinnls, the mechanic killed in
a fall of one of the company's planes
at Wray yesterday, had been en-
ployed at the flying field for more
than two years.
Alexander Lendrum, the pilot, who
serious injury, is, they said,
a veteran flyer, and has been engaged |
in exhibition flights in Colorado and |
states for some time.

WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE
Small Boy Satfied That the Bill for
His Three Days Fun Was Not
Exorbitant.

At last little Freddy was allowed to
visit grandpa all alone. They were
great friends, and had long waited for
the great day.
Freddy had the time of his life.
Grandpa saw that he wanted for
nothing. The small boy ate more
cream buns in those three days than
he would otherwise have done in three
years, while his pockets bulged all the
time with candles.
But there comes an end to every
thing, and Freddy went home again,
pale yellow of complexion, and languid
and feverish. Mother promptly sent
for the doctor, who ordered him to
bed, and sent him some very unpleas-
ant, but doubtless healing medicine.
Grandpa came next day and was
permitted to creep upstairs to see how
the sufferer was faring. He found the
small boy lying wan and pale on his
pillow, but received a watery smile as
q welcome.
"Oh, grandpa" said the weak little
voice, "I've been awfully bad-but 1t
was worth it."

CLERK MEANT TO GET EVEN
OF Course Congregation Could Get
Away, But He Had the Minister
in Tight Place.

There was bad blood between the
parish clerk and the minister of a GER
tain country church. Neither of them
ever missed chance of getting a bit
of his own back.
One Sunday the clerk had a special
invitation out to church with a friend
after the evening service, whereupon
he asked the minister If he would
mind keeping his sermon short,
1t was too good chance to miss.
The minister took few deep breaths,
and preached for one hour and a quar-
ter by the clock. .-''t
By this time the old clerks wrath
was at boiling point. He hardly watt
