Miss Quimby's Passenger, W.

A. P. Willard, Was Also Killed at Boston.

(National News Association) BOSTON, Mass., July 2. Miss Harriet Quimby, of New York, the first woman to win an aviator's license in America, and the first woman to cross the English Channel in an aeroplane, was instantly killed with her passenger, W. A. P. Willard, manager of the Boston aviation meet, at Atlantic, Mass., last night, when her Bleriot monoplane fell into Dorchester Bay from a height of 1,000 feet. The accident happened when Miss Quimby and Willard were returning from a trip over Boston Harbor to Boston Light, a distance of twenty miles. The flight was made in twenty minutes. The Bleriot, one of the latest models of military monoplanes, circled the aviation field and soared out over the Savin Hill Yacht Club, just outside the aviation grounds. Heading back into the eight-mile gusty wind. Miss Quimby started to volplane. The angle was too sharp, and one of the gusts caught the tail of the monoplane, throwing the machine up perpendicularly. Both Thrown Out. For an instant it poised there. Then, sharply outlined against the setting sun, Willard was thrown clear of the chassis, followed almost immediately by Miss Quimby. Hurdling over and over, the two figures shot downward, striking the water about twenty feet from shore. They splashed out of sight a second before the monoplane plunged down fifteen feet away. It was low tide and the water was only five feet deep. Men from the yacht club were on the spot quickly and, leaping overboard, dragged the bodies out of the mud, into which they had sunk deeply. Death probably was instantaneous. Both bodies were badly crushed. Several of Miss Quimby's bones were broken and there were many large bruises. Willard, who Weighed 190 pounds, hit the water face forst and

over one eye there was a gash from which the blood was flowing. . He, too, sustained several fractures and bruises. The clothing of both flyers was torn and the bodies 'were so covered with mud that it was several minutes before the doctors and nurses could determine the full extent of their injuries. Falters High in Air. When the victims were brought ashore in motor boats the bodies were laid on the ground on the edge of the aviation field. The crowd, which had been, witnessing the flights, rushed over, but a troop of state cavalry held the people back while Dr. George Sheahan, the field surgeon, with his staff and a nurse, made hasty examinations. In a few moments ambulances arrived and the victims were taken to the Quincy hospital. Flying high overhead at the time of the fall was Miss Blanche Stuart Scott, another aviator taking part in the meet, which had entered upon its second day. From her high altitude Miss Scott had watched Miss Quimby's splendid flight and was nearby when the gust upset the monoplane. In the excitement of the moment no one noticed the lone aviatress, but when Miss

Quimby's body was brought ashore, all eyes were directed aloft and Miss Scott was seen making sweeping circles over the field at a height of about 500 feet. Twice she started to descend but each time she was seen to falter. In another moment, summoning all her nerve, she turned the nose of her machine downward and landed safely, collapsing in her seat before any one could reach her. A. Leo Stevens of New York, manager for Miss Quimby, and Miss Quirilby's friends, Mrs. Helen Vanderbiii, who were both witnesses of the accident, were prostrated.

THIS IS FIRST ONE

The respective merits of Jim Flynn and Jack Johnson proved the cause of a neat preliminary to the big battle of Thursday. Two men had a fistic argument between Sixth and Seventh streets on Main street this noon, and escaped fro mthe police after beating each other up. "I'll get you yet" the defeated Johnson supporter called out as he wiped his bloody nose and escaped down an alley.

PUTS HUSBAND OUT WITH STOUT CLUB

With "two-bits" and two dice in a pocketbook, which she attempted to "discard" while the patrolman was not looking, Maggie Ralston, negress, a police character, was arrested about S o'clock last evening at Fourteenth and North H street, after she had just finished knocking her husband completely out of the ring hat and all. Maggie was escorted to the police statipn where she was slated for assault and battery. In police court this morning she pleaded not guilty to the charge, saying she struck her husband in self defense. The defendant declared that her husband is continually "running after her" and that he called her to Mather's coal yards, where" he is employed, yesterday afternoon. She complied with his request. She stepped into the yards and said "Hello." Ralston didn't like the tone of her voice and, according to the defendant made her take the count. But she was up again as soon as the echo of "ten" had iied and grabbing a club gave Ralston an opportunity of seeing stars shine in broad daylight. He is in bed today. "Twenty-five and costs and twenty days," was the mayor's verdict. "Not fair," the defendant murmured. "Fifty and costs and thirty days," was the second sentence of the mayor, resenting the insinuation of the defendant. Mrs. Ralston opened her mouth, as if to protest. "Keep quiet or I'll raise your fine again." Absolute silence.

CARRIED REVOLVER DRAWS STIFF FINE

"I didn't have any gun or cartridges when 1 was arrested," emphatically declared Toney Vettagotte in police court this morning when arraigned on the charge of carrying a deadly weapon. The gun and cartridges were found on Yettagotte's person at the time he was placed under arrest. Everyone seemed to know this but the defendant. Under the circumstances the Italian was given a fine of $50 and costs and sentenced to fifty days in the county jail. Yesterday afternoon, shortly after 2 o'clock, Yettagotte was seen running south on North Seventh street and Jim Codi, an aged foreigner, close at the former's heels. When the two reached North A street, Yettagotte stopped and wheeling upon his pursuer pointed a 32-calibre revolver at Codi's head. Laborers, working on a house near the corner, saw the occurrence and started to prevent what appeared to be an attempt at murder. Yettagotte noticed that he was attracting attention and just as quickly as he had stopped running, he darted we6t on A street and ran south in the alley. Codi followed him. They were arrested a few minutes later and placed in the city jail. Both men were under the influence of liquor. Yettagotte was given a "stiff" fine for evading the truth and Codi was fined $1 and costs on the charge of drunk.

EARHART WAS MADE ATTRACTIVE OFFER Asked to Remain in Richmond by Commercial Club Offer Too Late.

Anxious to secure the services of Prof. Will Earhart, formerly head of the musical department of the local public schools and to offer Richmond the best musical entertainments to be obtained, the Commercial club offered Prof. Earhart, before he decided to leave Richmond, a bonus of $5,000 a year upon the condition that he use $4,000 of that amount towards giving the city the best entertainment or Musical Festival each year, and the remaining $1,000 to be retained by him for his services. However, the offer came a trifle too late, as Mr. Earhart had already accepted the offer made him by the Pittsburg board of education. The Commercial club, and an officer of the organization stated today, is at a loss to know where it can find another man so capable of conducting the annual May Festival. At the meeting ot the directors of the club held last evening it was reported that $4S5.1? was made on the last Festival.
