Job and Goes to His Home to Die.

Michael Enright, aged 70, a special police
man at Coney Island for the las; ferry years,
lost his job yesterday and thrTe Hours
later was found dead in led. He lived at
1888 Stllwell avenue and knew more about
Coney and its past than any other resident
He did not show any sign Of feeling when
he was told that his services would be no
longer required at the dance hall on the
Bowery He merely closed his square
laws tightly babe familiars a casual good
BY, and went home. The doctors say it
was case of broken heart.
In his long service Enright was repeatedly
attacked and beaten. sometimes by chan ce
visitors to the resorts where he was en-
ployed, sometimes by members OF the gang
whose games he had disturbed. He saw
the flrst hotel go up at tho Island, This
was the place kept in the old days Of the
Island by Murray and Mike Norton.
The first man who stepped ashore from
the first excursion steamboat to stop at
Coney was helped down the gangplank
by Enright. Prior to that, visitors came
down in catboats, sloops, rowboats and other
small private craft, when they did not take
the long drive out through the brush rown
roads to Coney via Brooklyn and the wastes
now known as Bay Ridge, Bath Beach and
The news of Enright's death evoked
sincere regret among old islanders. Mes
sages Of coincidence poured in on his family.
The old man was never a regular police
man. His son, however, is a member of

AN AIRSHlP THAT BEHAVES.
GOES SIX MILES IN FIFTY MIN
UTES FAR FROM EARTH.
Speeds to the Roof Of Tall Building in
Toledo, Facing . High Wind. and Re-
turns to the Exact Starting Place With
tho Triumphant knabenshue, Inventor.

TOLEDO Ohio, June SO.-A. Roy Knaben-
shue, the Toledo aeronaut. to-day made
successful and remarkable fight in his
airship. He started from the Fair Grounds
at 935 A. NJ. and landed on the roof OF the
Splitter Building, ten stories tall in the heart
OF the downtown district, at 10 o'clock, the
distance being three miles. He started
on the return trip at 1929 A. M. and arrived
at the Fair Grounds at 1880 A. NJ.
On the downtown trip the ship beat d.
rectly into a head wind which was steady
and strong. On the return the ship was
blown mile beyond the Fair Grounds, and
tackled back. Not hitch occurred in the
operation Of the ship, and Knabenshue
was in full control. When he stared off
he slanted at an angle and rose slowly
Above the trees there was strong wind
and 1t became stronger as the airship scared
higher.
Knabenshue unanswered the ship, let
ting the wind behind carry 1t back slightly
until he had attained the position he de-
sired. Then he bore off downtown d.
rectly in the face Of the high wind. He
rose slowly until he had left the earth
at least a mile behind. He kept the
big airship, now almost speck, against
the clouds. steadily boring into the teeth OF
the wind, which at that height was blow
ing gale.
All that appeared to the thousands and
thousands OF excited watchers on the
ground, the housetops and the roofs OF
buildings a mile below him was the little
dot OF the balloon and a short streak under
1t that was all that could be seen OF the
frame.
Again and again Knabenshue let the wind
carry him of a few points, but every time
he threw the big rudder hard over the big
herrin glike ship turned about. He kept
the ship In the air until he had passed be-
You'd the Splitter Building and over the
roof of the Gardner Building. Then he
let the wind carry him slowly back. He
eased OF the engine and the ship settled
gently.
Finally he stopped the machinery alto
gether and down he came into the arms
OF the big crowd waiting to haul in his
ship and to grasp his hand. His perfect con-
troll of the air craft was illustrated at the
end Of the return trip. He came down
steadily, and when about $50 feet above the
ground he steered the ship in an almost
perfect circle and made it settle softly in
the exact spot from which he had started
an hour before and exactly between two
rows Of sandbags that had been dropped
off the frame at the start.
Knabenshue declares that his present
ship is far superior to others he has navi-
gated, that it is easier managed and that
he has solved the problem Of aerial naviga-
ton. He will NAL Ike another flight at the
Fair Grounds on Sunday afternoon

Drivers Not Likely to Strike, but Old and
New Contractors Lock Horns.
The threatened strike OF mail drivers
who carry the mails between the Grand
Central Station, steamship piers. railroad
ferries and the General Postoffice did not
materialize last night. The situation is still
unsettled. c. H. Wolcott, the new con-
tractor, was not a BILE to take up his contract
at midnight. A consultation between G.
G. Travers, the former contractor, Mr..
Wolcott and Special Agents Masten and
vaille took place in the afternoon. 1t re-
suited in MIR. Travers agreeing to carry the
mails for five days moro.
The new contractor, it is said, has acquired
a half interest in the New York Mail Com
pany, which owns the horses and wagons
now on the Grand Central post Office route.
Travers, who owns the other half interest,
is in actual possession of the stables, horses
and wagons. Mr.. Wolcott, 1t is understood,
expected to acquire enough stock to control
the company from Mr.. Travers at reason
able price inasmuch as Mr. Travers's out
fit was useless except to deliver the mail
under Walcott's contract. MIR. Travers
refused to- sell, however, except at what
demands of the drivers for better pay and
hours came on top OF this.
After Wolcott's attorneys had attempted
in vain to secure an injunction to compel
Travers to allow Wolcott to use the New
York Mail Company's wagons the agree
ment was reached. Postmaster Wilcox,
it is understood, will go to Washington
before Thursday and have the tangle
