night, and after being shifted and turner
bv the wind i'm various directions, hnaily
landed at Utica and Flatbush avenues, ex-
aotly one hour after he had assembled III
his Burgess Wright machine. Jones hau
made four tries to get off the earth Win
his mechanician, Roy Ashley. but failing
in this he decided to make the flight HIM
self. Governors Island was where ne
originally intended to land.
At the time Jones left the ground WIN
his machine there was practically little or
no wind, and with those conditions he hs-
ured I'm making Governors Island IN
very short period. But his calculations
went amiss. lie had gone about mile
after he arose i'm the air when he was
caught In wind blowing about fifteen
miles an hour. Even that did not seem
To- bother him. and he figured he could
make the island just the same.
But as he reached Harlem the vino
blew forty miles an hour. He had sew
eral narrow escapes from being thrown
ont Of his machine.
Then the machine headed for Flatbush.
For more than twenty minutes Jones kept
looking around. until ne iinally spotted q
place in Fatbush. After circling me
place five minutes he made perfect de-
scent Jones then went to find - tele-
phone. Having communicated with ms
mechaniciau. Jones then started back 10
his machine. He met some men "n"
thought he was an escaped lunatic. as
there was an asylum near by.
Although every effort had been made TO
find the machine where Jones said no
had landed. the police la.c last night de-
clared they were unable to DO So NOT
could they find any person In that VI
clniiy who recalled seeing nm aviator or
