HIS MIND DERANGED
BY AVIATION CRAZE

New York.-The first victim of the
aviation craze to be taken to a local
hospital for investigation as to his
sanity is Henry Meyer. who says he is
an "airship steward" Holding in
his hand a piece Of board and a PEN
ell, Meyer. while a passenger on a
Third avenue elevated train last night
began writing and reading aloud at
the top Of his voice a list of cable
grams he was writing to the emperor
OF China, in connection with the in
ternational aeroplane races which he
said were to be held in Pekin today.
Dear Emperor. Son Of the Sun and
Moon read one of the cablegrams,
my deflector Is out or order. but I
shall have it repaired and be on hand
to fly with YOU tomorrow"
The train guard decided tnat some
thing besides Meyers deflector was
out of order and stopped the train at
the next station and called a police
man. The airship enthusiast refused
to accompany the officer to the sta
tion until he explained that he was
brother of the emperor of China and
was commissioned to lead Meyer to
the palace. Then the man went along
gladly.
