New York.-Tkere were exciting
scene at the Brighton Beach
race track Thursday, resulting from
the tactics of the police in their de-
termination to run down and round
up the track gamblers.
Arrests were made right and left
by plain-clothes detectives detailed to
the track in place of the uniformed
squad that has been on duty there. A
crowd of 5000 in the field and on
the stands we're wrought up to a high
pitch of excitement when detectives
not only took a score or more of sus-
poets into custody, but proceeded to
search some of them in full view of
the spectators.
There were no demonstrations
against the officers, however, and
their work was accomplished with
nothing more serious than outspoken
remarks of disapproval at the treat
ment accorded the prisoners, some Of
whom were brought handcuffed from
the field through the grandstand.
Another start will be made Wednes-
day.
Fully 10000 people witnessed the
flight from Constance. They cheered
wildly, and a battery of artillery fired
a salute.

temberg reached the vicinity of the

ship sounded over the lake.
The airship emerged from her roat-
ing house stern forward. She slowly
reached the open lake and was clear
of her shack and with her keel even
with the surface of the water. She
hung in the air like a gigantic sea-
going leviathan by some mysterious
| power out of the element which should
be its home.
Supporting pontoons were rapidly
withdrawn by a numerous detachment
of the balloon corps and then, amidst
roars OF applause from the boats on
the lake, the crew and passengers, Is

Count Zeppelin, the septuagenarian
%aeronaut, was at the helm and he soon
turned the bows Of the ship in the di'
rection of Constance. 1t is estimated
that the airship started at the rate
of 80 miles an hour. 1t easily outdis'
tanced the speedy motor boats which
attempted to follow it on the lake and
the slower excursion steamers were
soon left far behind.
