ARRIVES AT ATLANTIC CITY Made Three Landings for Gasdline on Trip from Governor’s Island—Is on His Way to Washington. Atlantic City, July 4—A thrill was given thousands of holiday visitors here this afternoon when- Harry N, Atwood, the aviator, after fighting heavy winds throughout his flight from New York, terminated the third leg of his proposad journey from Boston to ‘Washington by landing in his biplane on the beach front. Three Landings for Gasoline. During the flight Atwood made three landings for gasoline, one near Asbury Park, the second at Tuckerton, N. J., and-the third at Venice Park, near this city. Atwood said that judging from the amount of gasoline he had used he must have traveled at least 250 miles. In the Air Five Hours. He was in the air more than five hours. Tha distance along the coast is about 115 miles. “I feel too tired to attempt the trip to Washington to- night,” the birdman said. “My route and time of starting will depend en- tirely on the conditions tomorrow. hope to start before 10 o'clock in the morning. Only Trouble Was Gasoline Supply. “The only trouble I had during the trip today,” Atwood said, “was with my gasoline supply. Aftér I left Gov- { ernor’s Island I headed along the coast. A warning whirr from my engines as I neared Asbury Park told me the gaso- line was.-low. At that time I was fly- ing about 1,000 feet in the air. I se- lected a landing place after circling around the resort and landed. Here 1 took on five gallons of gasoline. My tank holds fifteen gallons, but I thought the five would be sufficient for the wind sesmed to be losing force. Encountered Strong Air Currents. “When I mounted the atmosphere again I tried a higher altitude in the hope of finding quiet air currents. The wind was stronger if anything higher up, so I took a traveling altitude of about 1,500 feet. As I passed over the shore towns 1 always dipped to a 500 foot level. The crowds always gave me a fine reception and I could not resist the temptation to answer with a wave of my hat. I reached Barmegat and turned in for a more direct route to Atlantic_City. ‘Borrowed Gasoline from Autoist. “I experienced little troubleu ntil T meared Tuckerton. Here the gasolinz Wwent dry again. T had considerable difficulty in spotting a landing place, but finally descended in a little clear- ing. I borrowed five gallons of gaso- line from an owner-of an automobils and made a good getaway. It was during the fly from Tuckerfon across to the outskirts of this city that T had my hardest fight to keep in the air. The velocity of the wind here was the strongest of the trip. It took mea until almost 2 o'clock to make that last 17 miles, but I must have made at least 50 air miles. Wind Grew More Treacherous. “The wind grew more treacherous as I swung up to Venice Park on the outskirts of Atlantic ity 1 encoun- tered air bumps and ir holes that made the going rather difficult. To make matters worse, my gasoline ran out again. 1 came down and narrowly missed disaster when a puff of wind caught the plane about a hundrad feet from the ground. Almost Thrown from Seat. “I was almost thrown from my seat as the wind_got under the wings and again when I struck the ground. That was my narrowest escape. 1 expected to go head over hecls, but managed to hold on until the machine stopped. 1 felt the shock, but found my machine undamaged, and continued after taking on five more gallons of gasoline. Stable Currents Over Ocean. “When I circled out over the ocean 1 found the currents the most stable ot my flight, and made a successful land- ing in Atlantic City.” Guest of Atlantic City Club.

Garbags and All Forms of Refuse to Be Carefully Inspected. Boston, July 4.—Flyless Town is a name that Brookline will deserve if a campaign which Town Bacteriologist Albert G. S. Nyoen plan proves a success. There is co-operation aplenty mong citizens, and within another vear the buzz of the pesky insect may be a thing of the pasi. The fly must go. Such is the edict. In all earnestness the town authorities are bound to carry it out. There is nothing jocose in their intentions, and they point with pride to the fact that the town is already comparatively mo- squitoless. For the past ten years Mr. Nyhen and his assistants have waged relent- less war on the mosquito, with the re- sult that last year, with a population of 27,782, there were only reported four cases of malaria. Pleased by his success, Mr. Nyhen is asking for aid and suggestions for war on flies. War has not vet been offi- cially declared, lbut a strategy board is mapping out operations. It is planned to catch the fiy at his home and put him to death before he has an opportunity to raise his numer- ous progeny. Garbage and all forms of refuse will be carefully inspected by a corps of flv detectives. Devices to prevent the breeding of insects will be put in force along the lines already in use| against the mosquito. At present the town is followed by four samitary inspectors clad in uni- forms which_bear a yellow cross. They | have had charge of extermination of the mosquito. Last vear they visited 18,000 private properties. It is thought probable that the force will be aug- mented by a corps of fly annihilators.
