ins, the young aviator. landed at the
State fair grounds this afternoon at
4.26 O'clock and was eheered BY the 50,-
coo spectators after he had finished his
flight OF 1S5 miles from Chicago. He left
Chicago at 9:l6 a m.
The time, including stops, was seven
|. hours and ten minutes.
The actual time iR the air was FIVE
hours ana forty-one minutes. and his
average speed for the distance with
stops eliminated was about thirty-tw
miles an hour.
Brookins arrived in Springfield two
minutes ahead OF the special train with
which he had raced from Gilman.
Captures $4,000 Prize.
In accomplishing this feat, he won the
Sl0ooO prize for which he was striving
and demolished two records, one Of them
the worlds record for continuous cross
country flights. and the other the Amer
lean record for sustained flight.
A third record that Of the longest sus-
tanned ttight ever made In the world
barely missed being set by the young
airman from Chicago, a piece OF bad
luck forcing him 10 descend 10 the
ground second time just beyond Mount
Pulaski. This was eighty-eight miles
from Gilman. where a first stop was made
and l69 miles from Chicago. Brookins'
second stop OF the day al Mount Pulaski
was brief one. the aviator being down
only twenty-five minutes
No harm had befallen the Wright aero
plane and The flight on 70 Springfield was
resumed, after twenty-five minutes. II
was S19 when the descent near Mount
pulaski was made and S:H when the
flight to the capital was resumed. AS he
was only eighteen miles from the capital
the s0ec-ssfuI conclusion Of his q. trip
seemed near.
On reaching Mount Pulaski only little
over six hours had elapsed since the
young aviator left Washington Park in
the morning One hour OF this time had
been lost at Gilman. eighty-one miles
from Chicago. and his average speed.
while travelling had been thirty-three
miles an hour. This was better progress
than Brookins had predicted before hts
dash.
HamiItOn'S Record Gone.
First OF the records TO be demolished by
BroOlxins was Hamilton's American cross
country record from New York to Phila-
delphia. This was surpassed when Brook
ins went over Mount Pulaski lightweight
miles from GilRan, this distance being
two miles greater than the mileage rec
ord Of Hamilton.
The second record was hung up by
Brookins when his total distance travelled
from Chicago exceeded III miles, set up
by Glenn Curtiss in flight from Albany
20 New York, against the worlds record
for continuous flight between two geo
graphical points, Including necessary
stops.
Il took Brookins only one hour and If
ty-one minutes 10 fly from Gilman. eigh-
ty-one miles from Chicago. where he was
forced 10 stop 10 replenish his supply Of
