The avi- ator signalled for help and he was| given assistance 'In turning the ma- chine around so that it faced north-| ward. The machine was started near'the Gananoque road to cross the par-| ade grounds. It seemed to go in a, series of jumps until within a short distance of the boundary fence It cleared an automobile which was in| the way and then the drivercmade an attempt to make a sixty foof\rise in| less than 200 feet. The machine] turned half around and plunged to} the ground, the propeller and engine | being put out of commission and be-| yond frepair by the impact. The | cadets certainly had a marvelous es- cape from very serious injury. In an interview the Whig learned that three other accideiits happened Wednesday morning at Deseronto| camp, this one making the fourth| machine to be put out «af business| in a day. PETAWAWA HOSPITAL = | BURNED TO GROUND | 1 Fire at Northern Artillery, Camp Tuesday Evening Did Considerable Damage | The Whig received a telephone | message on Wednesday momming to | the effect that on Tuesday night | there was a big fire at Petawawa Ar- tillery camp where there are so many | soldiers from Kingston in training | for overseas gervice. | About 10.15 the fire stanted in the | hospital and spread with remarkable | speed all over the building. For-| tunately the patients were taken | from the building and mone was in- jured. Strenuous efforts were made by the commanding officer to save the structure but it was burned to the ground before the limited facilities which are provided could be brought intq_fise. There are no systematic | fire drillers at the camp and the equipment is insufficient to cope with | a large conflagration. It was thought | for a time that the flames might spread to some of the other parts of the camp and burn the canvas tents | but duckily none of the ashes fell | on the soldiers' quanters and the hospital was the only bBudlding which suffered. It has not yet been learned whether the fire was of incendiary origin. IN MARINE CIRCLES Movements of Vessels in and About Kingston Harbor.
