ONE DEAD, ONE DYING AT END OF JOY RIDE Two Deaths in Mysterious Accident on Berlin
 Road

Death stalked on the Berlin turn pike Saturday night when tour ing car, driven by Edward Lange- win of 140 Pratt street. Meriden, crashed into tnee off the highway located about one mile north Of the Meriden town line resulting in the instant death of William Tabak, 40, of 17 Mill street, Meriden, and the later demise of Paul Pequot, 40, of 7s Warren street, Meriden, who died yesterday afternoon at the Meriden hospital. Both men had crushed skulls and internal injuries.
 Langevin was arrested after the crash by State Officer Honeyman on a technical charge of reckless driv- ing and bonds for his release were set at s1,000. He, with three others Ella Young and Elsie Woolley. both of 40 Pratt street, and Charles Be- wis, 100 West Main street, all of Meriden. escaped uninjured.
 The accident was surrounded by many peculiar circumstances which have baffled police. Especially per- picking to the investigators is the fact that the survivors travelled into the city of Meriden without stop ping to summon medical aid for the two injured men.
 When first discovered, Langevin stated that he had been hit by a. touring car bearing Massachusetts markers at the junction of East Berlin avenue and Worthington Ridge, Berlin, but later admitted his report was incorrect when police dis covered a woman's hat and parts of an auto top at the real scene of the crash. From examination, it appear ed that the automobile was travel ling north and had left the highway, striking the overhead limbs of the tree. The rear right side of the car then swung against the trunk of the tree which measured about foot in diameter.
 Leaving the spot in the car the survivors drove on as far as the junction of the Middletown road and the turnpike at Worthington Ridge and then turned about and drove into Meriden, finally stopping at the

 INVOLVING PHYSICIAN
Prosecutor Drops Charge in kinsella-Leland
 Alteration

Dr. Michael A. Kinsella of 40 Ten Acre Road and Walter w. Leland of TT Hart street. the former one of the prominent physicians of the city and the latter a leading merchant, engaged in an altercation in the Besse-Leland Co. store on Main street about 12:30 o'clock Saturday afternoon with the result that Dr. kinsella was arrested for breach of the peace and assaulting MT. Le- land, and charges were preferred against James Crooms, colored, aged 35, of 6s Arch street, who it is said struck Dr. Kinsella.
 In police court this morning, Prosecuting Attorney J. G. Woods entered a nolle in both cases. Dr. Kinsella was present with his coun- sel, P. F. McDonough. and Crooms was present with Judge W. F. Man gan, his lawyer. MT. Leland was also in the court room. AS is cus- tomary when cases are nolled, the prosecuting attorney made no ex- planation. The usual Monday morn ing crowd of spectators was present, augmented by few business men who were apparently attracted by the possibility of an interesting trial. Immediately after the nolle was en- tered, the principals left the court room.
 Officer A. c. Walinczus was called to the store Saturday by an employe and learned that Dr. Kinsella had assaulted Mir. Leland. Crooms, aroused at the sight of his employer being assaulted, swung his first and floored Dr. kinsella with a punch. The latter has a cut over his eye, the result of contact with a counter as he fell Mir. Leland has no marks IS result of the fsticuffs.
 Numerous versions of the events leading up to the scuffle were cir culated about the city and nothing that has happened in long time exceeded the incident in public in terest. According to the police, Dr. kinsella and his children were on the elevator in the store when he became displeased at the manner in which the elevator was being op- erated. At the second floor he is said to have inquired the name of the colored operator and MT. Le- land is said to have demonstrated with him for the manner in which he made reference to the employe. Dr. Kinsella is said to have demand ed that MT. Leland retract remark and when the latter refused to do so, he was punched.
 When Officer Walinczus asked Mir. Leland if he wished Dr. Kinsella ar- rested the former is said to have expressed surprise at Dr. Kinsellas s identity. He is said to have told Dr. Kinsella he would drop the matter if the latter would apologize. This Dr. Kinsella Is said to have refused to do, whereupon Mir. Leland asked that hA hs AxrsstAA

French Pilot to Bring Action in Q. S. Court For Breach of Contract Makes Poor Landing at Croy- don Field.

Paris, Aug. Z5 Nf'-oharles A. Levine took French leave of France today without telling anyone of his intentions. He flew his transatlan- tic monoplane Columbia away from Le Bourget field and went straight to London, giving Maurice Drouhin the most unpleasant of all surprises that have come the Frenchman's way since he agreed to pilot Levine from Paris to New York.
 When it was learned that Levine had slipped away in tbe Columbia, two French pilots set out to catch him." but failed Drouhin then an- nounced that he would sue Levine in the United States for breach of con- tract. He said he had taken the precaution to have the contract registered at the American con- sulate.
 Never Posted Money
 Levine, it is said. never posted the 30o,000 francs which the contract called for as an insurance fund for Drouhins family, and with the Columbia out of the country there is nothing which can be attached in lieu of the money.
 Drouhin has for his trouble, 1t is added, only 10000 francs of his two months pay of 100000 francs.
 Mrs. Levine is leaving for tle United States tomorrow on the He de France When informed that her husband was safe in London she said she did not know whether he was coming back to France, but ad- ded that he had no intention of go- ing home by boat. She declined to say whether he expected to get a British pilot for his transatlantic hop.
 Takes Sudden Start
 Levine arrived at Le Bourget field before noon, went to the place in the hangar where his associate, Maurice Frankel, had hidden the magneto to prevent anyone from flying the Columbia, and ordered the mechani- clans to install it. They did so, and then Levine said:
 Turn over the propeller-1 just want to warm her up minute
 Once the engine was roaring, he had the machine taken out upon the field, and, while everyone thought he was merely going to taxi around bit, he opened the throttle and took the air.
 T am not going to chase Levine over to London" Drouhin said this afternoon, because if I saw him I would feel like killing him and then the English would put me in jail, but I am going to try to see if can't seize the Columbia in Lon don v

 Levine's flight from Paris was an absolutely solo performance, as he was unaccompanied even by a mechanician. Queried to his plans and whether Captain w. G. Hinch- cliffe, British aviator. was going to pilot him over the Atlantic. Levine

help to arouse our people as nothing
else This country needs queens"
Already 1t is being whispered that
the visit of Queen Julie of Pingo
Pango. if commercially successful,
will be followed by the visitation of
a number of other queens during the
Winter months.
I'VE intend to bring over" said Mr..
Piglot, the distinguished organizer
who has done more to bring European
celebrities to this country than any
man outside Of the penitentiary, las
fine bunch of queens as can be
found anywhere on the globe. This
country can easily absorb queen
month right along"
Among the likely aspirants for
American favor may be mentioned
Queen Once Omy of the Eskimos,
North Greenland as soon as she can
get publicity enough to pay her way
to Lobster Bay, Massachusetts
Mention is also made of Queen Fuzz
of the Sahara, who will be delighted
TO come as soon as arrangements can
be made for her costume. At present
she hasn't a bead that's fit to wear.
Queen Fuzz. who lives in the Oasis of
Booz. in the dry belt of the Sahara,
looks forward with pleasure to find
ing herself in an American environ
ment.
The fundamental significance of the
new import of queens has been ably
analysed by distinguished professor
of history In one of the Eastern
colleges.
I'VE made fatal mistake at the
time of the American Revolution, !"

said the professor, ain allowing the
English to keep King George III. We
were just as much entitled to q share
in him as they We're. And not only
did we lose the King, but under the
terms of the treaty which recognized
our independence the English also
got the queen and the young princes
-four of them at one crack-and the
whole royal family.
Think of it, continued the pro-
fessor, his voice rising to something
like indignation, 'in our thoughtless-
ness we lost our claim to what might
have been one of our biggest business
assets. And now when we want to
get a queen, we have to import one.
IF we had kept the royal family,
we should by this time have been
exporting princes to Europe. There
Is only one thing for it, as I see It;
IL we do get Queen Julie of Pingo
bring over king for her husband
and start an American royal family.
There's a king in Burma--K King
Piebald of Rangoon--that the English
don't want; and the French have Il
king in Cochin China, King Lilo.
that they never use and would sell
one of them, start a royal American
family, put on protective tariff
against all further importation of
princes, this country in a short time
would lead the world.
lin this, as in everything else, our
practical spirit, our absence of
hysteria, and our simple democratic
point of view is bound to win. But
