ground when they lost control.
Machine Was New One.
'Tho machine was a new one and Kelly
was not familiar with It. Ellington wont
as Instructor with Kelly as pupil. The
machine had a dual control, which en
ables either occupant to control It at will.
The controls were connected together,
enabling tho Instructor to correct in
stantly any mistake made .by tho pupil.
"Lieutenant Ellington and Kolly rose at
7:33 a. m. and sailed around the field for
about five minutes. Of courso thoy were
making no attempt at sensational work.
"They fell at ,a place about one mile
from the headquarters tout, toward Point
Loma. The land slopes down toward tho
beach and Is so low we cocld not see the
machine- strike. N
"it(Mmed' m though the machine be
can Its descent In a proper manner at
the usual 'Annie. Then It appeared out
of control". The altltudo was so low we
felt that t,he officers would have only a
rough fall.
"A careful Inspection of the wrecked
aeroplane convinced us that the controls
were In good order. The men were killed
Instantly, so we have no evidence on
which to .account for the accident."

Spent Ills A'ncntlon from
School Un llarl, Worjf on
Ihc Itnllroniti
President Moliler of tho Union 1'aclflo
has returned from tho west, accompanied
by W, Avercl Ilarrlman, son, of the late
Edward H. Ilarrlman, who for years up
to the time of his death was tho dominat
ing spirit in the Overland, taking It over
from the receivers when there was noth
ing left except the roadbed and the rusty
rails and building It up Into one of tho
greatest and best railway systems In the
country.
Although but 23 years of age, young
Ilarrlman Is already a factor In tho
Union Pacific, being at this time one of
of the directors and a member of tho ex
ecutive committee. He expects to follow
In the footsteps of his father and Is fit
ting himself for the work that Inter hu j
expects to take up. Although poor him
self, so far as money, stocks and bonds
go, some day he will be a rich man, ex
pecting to inherit his share of the In
terests left by his father.
By the terms of the will of Edward H.
Harriman, the property was left to the
widow, to be held by her until she might
determine upon a division among the
children. However, the children have
been taken care of and have been given
sufficient funds for their Immediate
needs.
Here for a Week.
W. Avorell Ilarrlman will remain In
Omaha a week or ten days and during
.that time, in a superficial way, he will
absorb Information relative to competent
railroading as It is done at Union Pacific
headquarters. He will spend his. time In
the various departments, consulting with
heads, acquiring general information, but
not attempting to get down Into the de
tails. Young Harriman Is in many respecti
much like his father. He It quick to
solve problems and equally quick to
reach conclusions. From what he has
seen of Omaha he likes the city and Is
In love with tho west, believing that Uh
development Is still In Its Infancy.,
While born with a silver spoon In his
mouth, so to speak, W. Avercll Harri
man has never been a loafer. He com
pleted his education with credit to him
self and since then ho has been busy a
large portion of the time studying tho
railroad problems, commencing at the
bottom to do so. Five year ago he
worked on the Short Line, one of the
Harriman properties. He was In an en
gineering crew, earning a chain and fur
this he received a salary of $65 per montk
living In the ramp arid being accorded ttie
same treatment as the other men. Dur.
Ing one of his vacations he fired a loco
motive on tho lines of one of the Harri
man properties and during another vaca
tion worked as a clerk in a local freight
office in the east.
Inspects Laboratory,
An inspection of the department of
chemistry at the shops occupied young
Harrlman'a time In the morning. After
lunch he was shown through the ma
chine shops .by Master Mechanio George
J. llatz, who explained the workings of
the big shops to the young man and
answered many questions asked In the
tatter's effort to become thoroughly fa
miliar with the mechanical end of the
lndubtry.
The Omaha club sought to entertain
' Mr. Harriman while he Is In Omaha.
' but was unable to do so, because It had
