FLIES FAR OVER SEA.
Daring Air Man Eclipses All Across-
Water Flights.
Nice, France. — Lieutenant Bague
accomplished a sensational and daring
feat Sunday by flying over the Medi­
terranean from Antibes to the little
island o f Gorgona off the Italian coast.
He covered more than 200 kilometers
— 124.5 miles — establishing a new
record for over-sea flight.
This he
did without the assistance o f tugs,
torpedo boats or any other craft to
guide him or to add to his confidence.
Hague started at 7 :30 o ’clock in the
morning in a Blériot monoplane, with
the intention o f landing on Corsica
and proceeding thence by way o f Sar­
dinia and Sicily to Tunis.
The aviator left the 'ground, rising
at once a considerable height. He
shaped his course southward and soon
vanished. Aided by a strong wind,
his progress was rapid and a dispatch
was finally received here that he had
arrived at Gorgona. This island lies
between Corsica and Leghorn.
Bague landed there at 1 o’clock in
the afternoon, the decent being made
with awkwardness and with danger on
account o f the trees and rocks. The
monoplane struck heavily and was
badly damaged, but Bague was not
hurt.
He had intended landing at
Ajacio, on the west coast of Corsica,
but, losing his way, he shaped his
course too far north, going further
than he intended. Bague’s over-sea
flight breaks the previous held by J.
A. D. McCurdy, who, on January 30
last, flew from Key West to within
ten miles o f the Cuban shore, a dis
tance o f 91 miles.
