Fis brilliant exploits sa the clous of the events at Tours brought him many offers for exhibition fight at Zaragoza, San Sebastian, Bordeaux.. Trouville, Angers, and other places. Caps. Dickaco, who w the first aviator to participate in tha British Army maneuvres, sustained serious injuries at Milah exactly three years ago, coming into collision with M. Thomas, a Frenchman, while trying ab the aviation meeting there. His condi tion for a time was most grave, but be gradually gained strength, his rDOOVĚTY being chiefly due to the unfailing dovo- tion of his ster, who, by hurrying out to the socno of the accident from Lon- don and superintending all the arrange- ments, undoubtedly saved his lio.
The sister to whom we refer is Mrs. W. Gerdos who afterwards stated that when she got to hospital whither the in- jured airman had been carried, she found there were no real trained nurses of any kind, and that the Milanese doctors had such quaint ideas that they let all and sundry who cared to call go and see the patient because it cheared him up."

It will be remembered that the collision was caused by Capt. Dickson suddenly shooting upwards (a favourite mazourte of his) at the same moment that Thomashing was volplaning downwards, neither air- man being aware of the presence of the otker.
In June last in the Paris Courts it, wa decided that Capt. Dickson was to blame for the accident, and was ordered to pay £200 damages to Thomas and £100 dam- ages to the makers of the Antoinette aeroplane. Thomas claimed £3,200 dam- ages, while Capt. Dickson claimed £4,000 for injuries he suffered and the destruc- tion of his biplane.
