OF DID WHY Why ioeii when there are a monoplane aviate thousands of peroas question which agitat-yesterday and the an- vaitinj is the main" minds wtis have bt-en manv and various. Members off the aviation part- ci.lini navi.riti' the! when the wind blew more than twenty Miles an hour, which it was iloiug at on Snndav. mi-Tlit as well might shoot himself or take poison, thus dying in a more comfortable manner and away from a crowd such as wis proeut to watch Masson navigate. 'W'e are going to take the mono-jlane to Leilehua now ami pull cif our flights there, whether Mr. Scuily has aiivthing to do with the matter or jnot, was the statement made by Avi-i ator Walker last evening1, "Sciiliy was more anxious to keep crowd on the park so that he could sell beer, than he was to have any air-j ship flights," he said.

I we-it to him at ten o'clock in the morning and told him it would be impossible for aiioiie to liy in the wind blowing ami thai he had better announce it to crowd. He said he wanted the crowd to stay so he could make some money on his near-beer, and that was ai there was to it. 1 went to him sevtial times and asked him to make the Masson No "Fake." Manager Adossides stated that he Lad been in the game for the past two years and ho did not believe in taking extraordinary chances. It was always better to play safe, and a monoplane could not by in a wind with a greater velocity than twenty miles. "People here tell me that Bu 1 Mars flew in a higher wind than that it Kapiclani on Sunday.

That may be, for Mars was living a biplane, which will rise easily in wind, but a monoplane acts just the opj'Osite. The wind bears it down. 'lf we are in the wrong for not living, then we will take the blame, but I want the people of to understand tlie truth of the matter. "Masson showed by Lis flight "fro in Leilehua that he could make good. Xo fake would make a flight like that, and vet he gets no credit here for the flight, because- he did not get up in -i heavy wind before many people later iu the day.

"That flight from Leilehua was a wonderful one. Massou does not have to come to Honolulu to make a reputation; his reputation is already made on two continents. "When he was flying with Paulhan they would sometimes wait around more than half of i- i i i a dav when thev couhL not, and the papers never iiy as wen as nor, ami tne pai gave them such a roast as the Hono- I lulu papers have done for the Su ndav. episode ot Mixed-Up Mess. It is all a mixed-up mess.

The aviators claim that they fulfilled their contract iij making a flight from leilehua on Sunday, and for that reason should net their money. W. II. Hoogs. in speaking of the fiasco on Sunday, stated yesterdav afternoon that Masson and his mechanician were so busy making money by matching dollars with each other and with any of the spectator who had the gambling instinct that they did vnot have time to fly.

"The mechanician disappeared for nearly half jn hour once and could not be but he presently turned up and said he had made six dollars while he was away. "Thisgambling was carried on in the presence of several hundred persons, and 1 do not think it was right." No Wind at Post. An army officer who came into The Advertiser oflice yesterdav from Scho-field Hayracks, stated that if Masson had really wanted to fly he could have come in from the post on Saturday afternoon at four or live o'clock, for at that time there was not enough wind to straighten out the flag on the staff-it hung limp and lifel ess. To the lay mind there seemed no reason why Masson should not fly on either Saturday afternoon or Sunday morning, but the aviation party thought differently and Masson did not go up. When it comes down to the final analysis, however, both laymen and professionals think that Masson 's mechanician had more to do with the failure of the aviator to soar above the earth than did the wind conditions.

At Leilehua. according to the spectators who were present, he kept telling Masson not to go up, and it was the same thing "Sunday in town. Masson. according to his friends, is all knocked out by the manner in which he has been treated by the press of Honolulu, and does not "know what to make of it. Asked if he were aoing to Australia on trie steamer tins week.

viator waiKer sain last evening that their plans were indefinite, except that thev were goinu to fly at Schofield Barracks for the officers and men there. Scully Tried. "Scully tried his best, to get Masson to fly," said one spectator who was on the scene most of the day, "and time after time he went to Masson and the others and asked thern if they could not make a flight for the benefit of the many hundreds gathered to see the event. "Each time be was told that there was too much wind, but that if it went down an attempt at flying would be made." Would Have Been Death. "Masson does not at this day have to prove that he is no fake," said Mr.

Adossides. "He has shown his nerve too often to have it questioned now. Miit if he had flown, as urged, on Sunday, it would only have been to have furnished The Advertiser with the story of another aviator gone to his loath.
