QUEENS WANTS L EXTENSIONS
Business Men Propose Way to Get Line
@ to Long Island City.

The men who have invested millions Of
dollars in the last fve years in the 1st
Ward Of Queens Borough. which was for
merly Long Island City, have united in an
effort 10 secure better transit facilities.
They are bringing influence TO bear on the

tach an amendment to the proposition OF
the Interborough company for the extern
sion Of the company's lines.

be extended several miles into the borough.
The offer Of the company is TO extend the
lines only as far as the plaza.
The Long Island City Business Mems As

At the present time cars Of two trolley

HOXSEY'S DEATH ENDS MEET
Aviators and Spectators Show
the Effects of Tragedy.

Los Angeles. Jan There were flying
events at the aviation field to-day but the
memory Of Arch Hoxseys death hung
like a pail over aviators and spectators.
The flyers worked as cautiously as did the
early pioneers in their aerial experiments
that brought fight within the realm Of
accomplished sciences. as the wind was al
most as treacherous as It was yesterday.
when it caught Hoxsey and tossed him to
death
All the aviators assembled. but they few
apparently only because their contracts
called for daily fights and because there
were people in the grandstands who had
paid money to see them fly. None re-
mained in the air more than a few min
utes, and long before the programme was
completed the committee dismissed the
spectators with the announcement that the
meet. which was 10 close Tuesday. would
end tomorrow. Tuesday is the day set
for the funeral Of Hoxsey.
Walter Brookins. who coached Hoxsey in
the art of flying, was pale and nervous to-
day when he brought his biplane on the
field, and in the short fight he made he
never once attempted the thrilling spiral
dives. which he originated and which Hox-
sey was emulating when he fell
Hoxseys body was removed to Pasadena
to-day, where ii will lie in a mortuary
chapel until Roy Knabenshue, manager Of
the Wright team, completes plans for the
funeral
All funeral expenses will be borne by the
Wright brothers and an additional sum
will he given TO Mrs. Hoxsey. 1t was
learned tonight that every cent which
Hoxsey made during his entire aviation
work will be given TO his mother.
Mrs Hoxsey will also receive approx
mately $4,000. il is said. from the aviation
committee as the winnings of her son dur
ing the meet. The altitude prize Of s. oo0
was won by Hoxsey last Monday. His
American endurance record of three hours
and seventeen minutes, made the day be-
fore his death, undoubtedly will stand, and
this will add 5000 more To the purse. Hox-
seys winnings Of daily altitude and endur-
anCe prizes will amount 10 $1,000 additional.
Hoxsey was a fataliSt he believed that
when his time came TO die he would die, no
matter where he was or what he was do
ing. He talked Of this so much to his
mother that Sne came to believe as he did
This accounts much for his fearleSsness and
the resignation OF his mother.

The following statement was given out
tonight by Mr.. Levine:
A thorough examination was made to-
day Of the machine which Mr.. Moisant used
on Saturday, and all witnesses were asked
10 describe in detail just what they saw
the monoplane do. Every statement agreed
on two points:
when apparently no necessity arose for his
landing at that particular moment or at
that particular point.
Second. that when he started 10 land he
was flying with the wind.
Mr.. Moisant had repeatedly stated that
landing with the wind was one OF the most
dangerous experiments that an airman
could make.
It will remain impossible 10 ascertain Just
what went wrong with Mr.. Mosant's ma
chine and why he started 70 descend when
he did. particularly because he realized how
highly dangerous it was 10 descend with
the wind.
The Inevitable conclusion is that some
thing went wrong inside Of the Bleriot.
81 netting Of such a serious nature that,
regardless Of the danger OF landing with
the wind. Moisant was compelled immedi-
atplv 70 seek the Ground
The machine Mosant used was the same
one In which he won second nlace in the
international cup race at Belmont Park.
During the Belmont Park race Noisant car
ried twenty gallons Of easolene in a tank
situated in the Same place under his ma
chine as II was on Saturday. when the ac-
cident occurred
At the time Of the accident there were
six gallons Of gasolene in the tank.
The reserve tank was not invented by
Nosant, but BY Louis Rleriot. maker of tho
Pleriot monoplanes. who had designed II

'Cascarets' Are Best
Laxative for Women
A Ten Cent Box Keeps You Feeling
Good for Months-No Head
ache, Indigestion, Foul Taste
or Bad Breath.

All women need Cascarets. Simply
because they don't exercise enough.
They don't eat coarse food, or enough
fruit and green vegetables. Those are
natures ways of keeping the bowels
active. But very few women employ
them. The next best way is Cascarets.
Nearly all the minor ills of women
can be avoided by Cascarets alone.
Ihere is no need to have headache,
lame backs, depression, bad breath. bad
complexion. The remedy is Cascarets.
NOT In large doses-unless you wait too
long The best way is one Cascaret at
tlme-just when you need it. One
every day, perhaps.
1t is simply matter of keeping clean
inside, as you do on the outside, You
oon't use soap in large quantities, and
rarely. You use it frequently, regu-
Iariy' Just as you need 1T. Do the same
with Cascarets- Then you are always
wels always at your best. Keen a 10
cent box handy always.

field Park.
Street Fair Held There Calls
Attention to Place.
PLENTY OF ROOM.
Children Would Not Interfere
With Picnickers.
More Work in View for Drain
age Board.

In connection with the playground
movement which is sweeping over the
city and the street fair held at Gar
field park last week in the southeast
part of the park attention has been
called to the fact that the recent show
grounds would make an attractive
children's playground.
While it is true that the wooded
park proper on the north is to some
extent a playground and is equipped
| with swings and teeter boards, etc. a
sentiment has been growing in favor
of equipping the other tract with like
material and setting it aside for the
exclusive use of the children. The
| idea is that in this tract picnickers
which often nearly fill the park would
not interfere with the children and
vice versa.
The place is accessible. The street
cars stop at the entrance. Besides it
is only a few. blocks walk from many
of the children's homes.
On it is ample space for swings ball
playing parallel bars, and above ALL
there is plenty of fresh air. Such a
playground may be more and more
in demand as the First ward grows
and the vacant lots become taken UP
with houses. 1t may only be a
question of time when the proposition
mentioned may be taken up in a.
definite form-perhaps by the Civic
club, if the organization ever wakes
