Wise, of this city, fell in a British aeroplane and was taken to WaUer Keed Hospital. it is believed both his logs were broken and it is not known whether he has any serious internal injuries. Lieut. Wise, with-his brother, took off yesterday afternoon and at 150 feet in the air 5ns motor cut out, causing the plane to fall to the ground in spin. Lieut.

Wise saw duty in Europe with a day bombing squadron? He was shot down and takon prisoner by the Germans and not released until the signing of the armistice. Only last Monday he had another narrow es cape while doing exhibition flyin near alter Reed. un this ocacsion he was flying a Fokker in which he had to make two forced landings, near Forest Glenn. Each time he took the air again after repairs and adjust ments, but the third time was fatal for the Fokker as his engine stopped at only 50 feet above the ground and he crashed into a fence, wreaking the Fokker but only bruising himself. The same afternoon, Lieut.

1c. Haynes, of Boiling (Field, was also fU'ing an SE-5 in which he was forced to. land In a small field near the Sol uiers nuiiie. me was wreciieu Lieut. Haynes was badly bruised and shaken up, but suffered no broken bones.

Yesterday afternoon another nc.ci dent, and, remarkably narrow escape was expurienceu uy n. ivic Ginnis-und Captain L. N. Keesling who were flying in a DH-4 near Boll ijng Field. The machine caught fire at 5,000 feet from the back fire in the causing the flames shoot back close to the pilot and into the fuselage.

Lieut. McGinnis, by re markably- good side-slipped his plane down to the earth, a dis tance of nearly a mile and landed without crashing. He jumped out of his seat as the flames burst out about him. Captain Keesling was close to the fire, and extricated him self as soon as the stopped without difficulty. The engine was ruined, and the front co*ck-pit burned awav.

but the aviators suffered no in juries whatever. Again, yesterday afternoon, Colonel Arthur R. Christie, while on a prac tice flight, crashed in landing in DH-4 at Dolling Field. This machine which lands very flat, was caught in a cross wind and nosed over. Outside of cutting his nose badly, Colonel Christie escaped further injury.
