B. CAMPBELL, Atty. 'or Executor. AIRMAN TO FLY FLIGHT CALLED OFF AFTER PEO PLE HAD PAID ADMISSION. THE SHERIFF TOOK THE AIRSHIP Held It Until This Morning on ment for Debt by Harry Hale, Who Rode in the Motorcycle Races.

i (From Friday's Daily.) The Motordonie Aviation company, which put on a "meet" in Fort Scott ending yesterday, almost came to grief here because of its refusal to give an aviation exhibit after collecting 50 cents per head admission fee from a good-sized crowd that its announcements of a flight had attracted to Athletic Park. The crowd, after reveral hours' delay and considerable insistence, forced the company to put on a flight, which it did at 7 o'clock last evening, after hundreds had left in dhgust. Then (he managers refused to pay Harry Hale $20 which he claimed he was to receive for his part in the motorcycle race and he employed- Judce Oat.es to attach the airship. The attachment was levied on the flying machine just as it was ba-ing dismantled for shipment to another town, and Deputy Sheriff John Hartiuan lodged at Athletic Park last night with the strange looking thing on his hands and wild scenes in his dreams. Shortly before noon today the company satisfied Mr.

Hale's claim by paying the $20 and $12 in costs incurred and recovered possession of its wings. There were some exciting and sometimes amusing scenes at the park during the controversy between the crowd and the managers of the show. Mayor Morrow and Sheriff Cowan iin-a'Jy mixed in, laid down an ultimatum to them and after some more y-and an attempt by the crowd to round up the gate receipts the flight was given. It was a good ono and worth the money. Because of the failure of the company to give a flight yesterday after- noon, there was danger for an hour or longer of the people who had paid j(J cents to see the flight wrecking the aircraft.

They became very indignant and there were cries of "fake" and "give us our money back." Finally, at aimost 7 o'clock, Mayor Morrow and Sheriff Cowan went to the malingers and told them they must either put on a 1 light or give the people their money The only alternative left them was to- have their entire show tied up1. Filially the sheriff left the ground, taking all his officers with him, and the result was that within a very few minutes the aeroplane was put into operation through fear that the crowd would do violence to the machine and the managers. Therei are several stories as to why ttxgcompany did not want to put on a flight after having collected the gate money. The managers gave it out first that there were too inany people standing on the outside to see the show without having paid toi see it; then, when the people who had paid get insistent, they claimed something was wrong with the engine. Persons who stood near the engine say it did appear to be a iitlle out of order.

It was "missing," they say. The most plausible reason advanced is one given by a Fort Soutt man with whom the show managers fraternized and who was familiar with their ehow schema. It is to the effect that the company has a contract with the aviator for only two flights a week at a fee cf J250 a flight; that they had given two flights in Fort Scott, and the patronage did not justify another, and that, though they had attracted the people there and taken their money at the gate, they bad no intention of giving a flight, but were depending unon the exhibitions of motor car speed and a motor-cycle race to satisfy their patrons' craving for amusement. There. was some talk of differences lifers or-Frleff Bate Never Greasy 9 By Mrs.

Frisco men who have returned from Springfield during the past few days, report that the crowd that will be here the 21st, the date of the picnic, will probably be by far the largest that has ever Attended such a gathering.

The employes' of the road there are enthusiastic over their annual picnic, and thousands of them will attend this accompanied by their families. Last year the number at Pittsburg was 5,000, and it will probably be exceeded this year. At least five special trains will' be needed to handle them. The trains will be switched to the Missouri Pacific tracks, and will unload at the park entrance, saving them the expense of unloading at the depot and going from there to the park. All arrangements will be completed for their entertainment before the dale "of the picnic, that there need be no here.

Workmen employed by Martin Dearth bfgin work' this morning on the addition to the Gunn Park dance floor. The new floor will be over twice as long as the old one and will be much better. If the floor is found to be a paying proposition a roof may be put over it. The whole park in general is being put in first class con dition for the big Springfield picnu which is just one week from tomor row. The committee which landed the picnic here will arrive tomorrow morning and will, spend the day mak ing all final arrangements.

They wil' close the contract with the Fort Scott people and everything will be ir readiness to entertain them." The lo cal Frisco boys ha-vc heen practicinj base bal! for some time and will bt in condition to meet them.

Or ders for the encampment have not been completed as yet, as the detail are yet under the consideration ol Gen. O.

I. Martin and Maj. Ayer. The eomprny will bo absent from Fort Scott about one week, as in the past returning from Fort Riley, where th last few days of the encampment wil be spent. Mrs.

Markel, who, it will be remem bered, became insane some time age -as a result of the crew of an T. passenger train refusing to al low her to leave the train at a watei lank two miles south of Moran, car rying her on to Elsmore, is reported to be almost entirely recovered. Mrs Markel, after leaving the train at Elsmore, was taken by Ed Hall, the BrouKon liveryman, to the home of her brother, J. H. vanover, of Bron son.

On the way to Kronson she be came suddenly violently insane. Shf has recovered almost completely, bott physically and mentally and has beer returned to her home in Arkansas. Sheriff George Cowan is thinkint seriously of entering the amusement business when his term as sheriff i complete, as he has already had gocd schooling in that business. Sine he has been sheriff he has had chargi of various kinds of amusement, thcugl for a short time only, the last being an airship he had in his custody fron yesterday evening until near noon to day. This was his first experienc with an airship, and but for tho fact that it hadi been partially dismantlec" before he assumed control, Mr.

Corner Market Square Fort Scott, Kansas between the managers and the aviator on the alleged groiund that the epnip.i-ny had not settled with him for previous flights, and oilier gossip about reasons why the company couldn't put on the exhibition.

During the wran- i lo some of the crowd demanded that the gate receipts be.held up, but isa-dore Bloom, one of the managers, had evidently anticipated, such siu emergency, and he had' coppWl them and disappeared. Tin crowd started out to hunt the man with the money. When things began to get vitriolic, Solomon Friedman, the other manager a robust young fellow of 200 pounds had been seen hieing himself toward the tall grass, lie did not come back, and when the gate money was found to be missing a crowd started out to hunt him. He was found hiding in the weeds and was marched back into camp with a six-foot high school bey guarding him from behind, his two fore-fingers lev eled oh him for guns. Scared as he was, and being innocent of having any coin in his clothes, it took him but a moment to convince the crowd that he had heen divested of whatever of this world's goods he had ever been entrusted with.

Finally, about 7 cplock, after hun dreda of people who had spent their money to see the airsnip go up had left, thoi engine got to working pretty f.tir and the aviator. gave a fine exhibition. About a dozen autoes from Nevada, filled with people who cam a to' witness the flight, left, disappointed before the management was impressed with the urgency of the necessity of making a flight. The management had interested the Fort Scott Gas and Electric company and one or two Fort Scott busi ness men. in its show here, and they fo make it a success, in ducine; a number of merchants to their business houses on the occasion nf yesterday's show.

Manager Ab bington of the Gas and Electric com pany directed all the printing and ad. vertising, paying Hie bills cut of com pany funds, and co-operated in every way in getting the people to patron iz the show. His company's interest was in the street car traffic to and from the grounds. The company came here under the name of the Motordome Aviation com pany. It arlvcriisod itself as beinr; a big concern, carrying twenty-one peo ple.

Beddes Blcom and Friedman it carried Gerston, the aviator and a good one and two chauf feurs Grant Finnell and Tobo Belcher. These five men were the defend ants in the attachment, suit brought by Harry Hale, and Mr. Hale's petition names the Ward Aviation company as tho defendant. HAD A BAD FALL. William Ramsey, Young Son of Prof.

H. D. Ramsey, Sustained Broken Arm Yesterday. (From Friday's Daily.) William Ramsey, the 10 year old son of Professor II. D.

Ramsey, superintendent of the city schools, sustain ed a bad fractute of the left arm yesterday afternoon about 4:30 o'clock, when he fell from a tree near Athletic Park, which he had climbed into in order to get a better view of the exhibition in aviation.
