ONLY ONE FLIGHT
Made by the Aviator, owing to an
Accident

Wind conditions and engine trouble
kept Harry Hoover, the 19-year-old
aviator, from making his second flight
Wednesday afternoon and in landing
after his second attempt, he narrowly
escaped death. Parts of his machine
were smashed when 1t turned com.
pletely over in corn field east of
Martinsburg road and Hoover was
thrown out. The distance from the
grond was less than ten feet, so he
escaped uninjured.
The morning fight of Hoover was
beauty. Starting in South Vernon,
from the Parrot field, he circled
over east of the city, then north and
then wheeled about and retraced his
course, returning to almost the pre-
else spot whence he started His
flight was observed by thousands of
people, many Of whom assembled to
roof tops to gain better view of the
bird.man. Hoover was unaccompan.
led in his journey, as his machine ac.
commodities but a single person.
There was some little disappoint-
ment expressed that Hoover did not
fly straight down Main street, as
many people on the square gained
but slight glimpse of the aviator
and his machine. The Boosters com.
mittee which arranged for the exhi-
bition endeavored to get Hoover to
attempt this, but he stated he pre-
ferred to keep away from buildings
in case some accident should befall
him.
The afternoon fight was scheduled
to start at 3 o'clock. Soon after this
hour, Hoover started his machine
from it's resting place in South Ver-
non. He experienced trouble at the
outset, but arose up in the air for a
preliminary flight. He circled over
the bottom lands and, his engine Civ.
ing him trouble, descended near what
is known as Delano's Point on the
Lakeholm estate. After some ad-
justment, he arose again.
This time Hoover flew over in the
direction of Campbell's Hill. He re.
allied that his engine was not work.
ing we'll and that wind currents were
adverse, so he made an attempt to
return to the Essex plant field When
he reached the Pennsylvania shops,
his machine started downwards. He
still retained his control and sailed
over the river at a point east OF the
proposed landing place
The biplane had reached point on
the Martinsburg road and was set
tling gradually to the earth in a corn
field, when a sudden gust of wind
blew one of the wings downward and
shock of corn was struck. The bi-
plane turned completely over and fell
to the ground, spilling out the manip.
ulator. The rudder and the planes
were smashed by the impact with the
ground, but Hoover did not even re-
ceive a scratch. Quite number of
people witnessed the accident.
The machine was damaged to such
an extent that the possibility of a
flight was precluded, SO the people
were forced to content themselves
with having seen pretty exhibition
in the morning-the first bonafide
aeroplane fight ever staged in this
city.

OLD SOLDIER
Secures Pension After Fifty
Years
Newark Advocate.)


The 50-year effort Of John II. Ellis
to secure pension has finally sue
ceeded. Mr.. Ellis, who is the father
in-law of John Miller, the well-known
butcher of the city has just been
granted a pension of S18 a month
through the efforts Of Congressman
William A. Ashbrook.
Owing to an error in the record of
his discharge from military service
at the close Of the civil war every
previous effort to obtain a pension
for Mr. Ellis failed though numerous
18th district congressman introduced
special bills in his behalf in the past
so years. Mr.. Ashbrook, through his
efficient secretary, Ernest Cornell,
had the record corrected and then was
able to obtain the pension which, for
half a century, had been denied.
