HORROR OF WAR Iff AIR EXPOSED Aerial Sliam Battle Results in Tragedy ! ?Sine Soldiers Lost. Vienna. June 20.?'Nine burned and mutilated bodies, the splintered fragments of an aeroplane and the charred remnants of a big dirigible balloon are the mute records of one of the most tragic?certainly the most sensational?of disasters which have ' occurred since man learned to fly. i The catasthrophe. which resulted in! the death of all concerned, nine officers and men, followed a mimic attack by the aeroplane on tie dirigible ! at a great height during the Austrian! manoeuvres and served to sh:\v, more; than any previous accidents to flyiT. ! machines have done, the horrors that! would be likely to attend aerial war- I fare. The dirigible military balloon Koertling early today left Fischamend, 11 miles from Vienna, manned by Capt. Johann Hauswirth, in command, Lieut. Ernst Hofstetter, Lieut. Bruer, Lieut Haidinger, Corporal Hadima, Corporal Weher and Engineer Kammerer. A half hour later a military biplane, with Lieut. Flatz and Litut. Hoo>ta sooani, standi m pursue. I" wa^ the inteuiion of " apt. Ha-;;wirth to take photographs of tae movements of the troops below and then to join in the manouevres^ Ait the same time he was to kee.i out of range of any of the mosquito craft which migui seek to attack hirr. Crowd Saw Tragedy. The news had gone abroad that something in th^ nature of a s'iam rarial fight would take place, a.'d dl Jc-enigsber^, the scene of th'? gagemem, a big crowd had gathered. \tn quicsly ;.t? trailer, DtU miun spH?.;er cra.it, ovrrtcok the ?irsh;:i. and livrr. tl.o spectators witnessed 2u thrilling sight. As might a wasp bent on attacking some clumsy enemy, the aeroplane circled several times around the balloon, now darting close to her, and their away, always apparently steering off just in time to avoid an actual /collision.Meanwhile the balloon cOiitifcued to rise until it was a/bout 1,300 feet from the ground. The aeroplane, at a still greater height, manoeuvred until it appeared to be nearly over the airship. Then it hegan its decent. It was the evident intention of the ^Uot of the aeroplane to take up a position directly above the dirigible, - within striking distance, but owing to a fatal miscalculation of distance or speed, the nose of the biplane struck the envelope of the airship and ripped it wide open. Explosion Jtesnlts. A tremendous explosion followed, t'ae balloon burst in*> flames, which enveloped the biplane. Almost at the ? a? tho p\'T>losion the wife of! lUUlugxxu vt uuv Lieut. Hofstetter, who had been married only a month, arrived in a motor car. Lieut. Flatz, when extricated from the wreckage of the aeroplane, showed faint signs of life, but expired almost immediately. All the others j were killed instantly. Military officers who witnessed the j disaster said that the manoeuvres had T carry out as far as possible actual! war conditions, in which aeroplanes' attacked a dirigible, the latter tryingj j to repel the assault. The occupants j 1 of both craft had been ordered to con-: duct themselves as they would in an j I j actual combat. According to some experts the j catastrophe seemingly was caused by j the aeroplane being caught in the; eddies from the balloon. They at-! j tribute the accident to a species of j whirlwind caused by the airship's pro-; peller which drew in the smaller ma- 1 [ cnme. MAN DEVOURED BY LIONS. Entered ('ar in Which Six Were (aired?All But One Fight?Eldest Tries to Save Man's Life. 'Chicago, June* 21.?Emerson D. Deitrich, manager of a theatrical production presenting a troupe of trained lions, was killed and partly devoured tonight by six lions when he enter- i ed the car in which they were caged. While the keepers were recovering Deitrich's body, a lion escaped from an adjoining cage and terrorized the residents of the thickly populated TI . V? i r? +V?A nor CfnoH quai ttrji m nuit ? . The escaped lion was finally driven back to its car, having harmed no one. A pike pole from the fire department was used to withdraw Deitrich's body from the lions, after it had been sprinkled with formalde^yde to drive the animals away. George McChord, keeper of the' lions, was unable to help Deitrich. "When he went into the den," MrChcrd said, "Teddy, the leader of the attack against Deitrich, began to play with him and he told the beast to set down. Four of the lions were fac ing 'him. Finally, Teddy slung around behind and, in a linute was on his back. Four others then leaped for him, and I think his neck was broken. "Trilby, the oldest of the lions, tried to save him, but the others pushed her away and she quit and watched them without joining in the attack." The liens were owned by Madame Adgie Castillo, to whom Doitrich * as j engaged to be married. SUe said she formerly had taken care of the animals herself and that they never before had given indications of "being vicious. She attributed the attack to the fact that the car was dark when Deitrich entered. Policemen armed with rifles guarded the car tonight. The lions, W'Qiie attaching ueuricu, kept up an incessant roaring which attracted a great crowd. The car in which they were kept was:an ordinary box car, in the ends of whic^ steel cages had been built, reaching within a few feet of the top of the car leaving a passageway about two feet wide between them. In one cage were the six older lions, and in the other four younger ones. A score of policemen and members of a fire company were needed to withdraw Deitrich's body from the cage. After the disinfectant had been thrown in the den, the animals made repeated plunges at the bars jut outside of which the rescuers were working. With the aid of a pike pole, a rope was dropped around the body but the interference of the lions prevented the rescuers from lifting it over tne Dars. Finally the pike pole caught a belt worn by Deitrich and the body was recovered. ' The lions have been used in hun> dreds of nerformances, according to Madame Castillo, five or six of them being liberated on the stage together to perform under her direction. She always has controlled them with a whip. In Memoriam, A ' - - * ^i- - : At tne aawn 01 me iuvrumg ui Thursday, June 11, 1914, the death angel entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. George P. Boozer, of Smyrna, a id laid its cold hand upon the life o' t;!C;r beautiful and loving daighter "Myrtle Eliza" aged 15, and took her to dwell with Jesus, whom she had been taught to love so well. God per:i'i4tod Myrtle 10 remain in our aiidsl and in the home just long enough to show us what a treasure she was; so loving, so gentle, with unusually bright intellect and patience truly wonderful. She died of that dreaded disease, typhoid fever. She was always in her place at Sunday school, ever ready and e.iger to help with anything that was given her to do. While our hearts oieea an parting wivi Myrtle, yet we humbly submit to the Divine will, knowing "He doeth all things well," and recognize in this sad dispensation, His mercy in gathering Srst he fairest flowers. Our hearts go out in sincere sympathy to the bereaved parents in their sad affliction. We commend them to the Father of mercies, who alone can heal the wounded heart. In loving remembrance, I Mrs. C.

Her soul hath departed from earth, ; To dwell with the Lord above. ' She was like a beautiful rose-bud, Plnr-kori frnm its (ipwv ibed. And carried from its earthly throne, j Toe streets of gold to tread. ! Xo more shall we see that shining \ face. Worn by our loving friend Myrtle, j For she was taken from our midst, To meet her blessed Lord. ? j Escaped From Irish Pastures.
