Aviator Reached London From Paris Was Forced to Descend Many Times However on the Long Trip Great Crowds Follow His Course. (By Cable to The Times) London, Aug. 18 JohnB. Mois sant, tiie American architect, today won his sensational race from Paris to London tor the Daily Mail's 1 25,- 000 prize, when, at 11:35 a. m. he landed with his mechanician within the borders of the English metropo lis, three miles east of Crystal Palace, where he had expected to land. Half a million people were on tne waicu for him and cheered him as he cir cled over the city, selecting his land ing place. Twenty-five thousand of the spectators were Americans, tour ists and members of the colony. Moissant, who made only five as cents before he set out Tuesday morn ing on tiie feat that has startled the world, has established two records that will rank with the most daring feats of the pioneer bird men. Never before has-the distance between Paris and London, 25 miles by air line, been covered in an aeroplane, and never before has so long a trip been made in a machine carrying two men. The fourth to cross the Englisu Channel in an aeroplane. Moissant outdid his predecessors by carrying with him his mechanician, Albert Fileux. By air line from Paris to London is, 225 miles; by rail and boat, 259; by the route Moissant took, approx imately 265 miles, as follows: Paris to Amiens 65 miles; to Calais, SO; to Deal, 26; to London, 94. A remarkable feature of the flight is that Moissant steered the entire distance by compass. J V Motor trouble twice forced him to defended after he left Deal', the chan nel port where he alighted yester day. He left Deal at 4:55 this morning. Shortly before 7 o'clock a pin in the motor went wrong and he came down at Sittingbourne, thirty-tive miles from London. Putting off again, he was forced to alight once more between Brom ley and Chatham, about twelve miles southeast of London. All night long crowds were gathering at Crystal Palace, where Moissant had said he would land. ' Thousands of persons camped out in the streets, many of them supplied with camp stools and blankets. Not since the funeral of King Edward has London seen such crowds congregating during the night. Motor cars were banked about the palace by the scores when morning came, and as the day progressed their number was constantly in creased, many motorists coming from Deal, where they had gone to see the aviator start this morning, and beat ing him in because of the stops he was compelled to make; Peddlers of food and drink did a land office business. Several nun dred police were detailed to guard the crowds, but so great was the crush that several women fainted. The throng was not more enthusiastic than that near Deal, where 5,000 per sons gathered before dawn to see the ascent.- . It was 4:55 when Moissant stepped into his seat, and his mechanician, Albert Felieux, took the other. The weather was ideal. "Here goes," said Moissant, and a moment later the machine rolled BALd AT 25 Sir. Armstrong Tells How He Grew Hair in a Short Time. Dear Sirs: "I was told of your great remedy, Parisian Sage, that it would grow hair on bald heads, so I got a bottle and tried it, and it is fine. I am a young man, and only 25, and was completely bald on the top of my head, and now I have hair one inch long, with the use of only one bottle. I shall certainly keep on until I have a good head of hair, which I have no doubt it will bring." Oscar Armstrong, engineer Belle ville Borseshoe and Rolling Mill Co., Belleville, Ont., August 21, 1909. To the readers of The Times: The Giroux Mfg. Co., American makers of Parisian Sage, wish to state that they do hot guarantee Parisian Sage to grow hair on bald heads, because n most cases the hair root is dead. in the case of Mr. Armstrong the hair root was not dead, and knowing as we do the astonishing hair growing virtue of Parisian Sage, we see no reason why it should not grow hair on the head of Mr. Armstrong. But we do guarantee Parisian Sage and so does King-Crowell Drug 'ompany) to stop falling hair, dan druff and itching scalp in two weeks, or money back. . Parisian Sage is a daintily per fumed hain dressing, not sticky or greas". and is used extensively by Indies who desire brilliant and luxu riant hair that attracts and fasci nates. '. : Large bottles. 50 cents, at drug gists everywhere, and at King-Crow- ell's drug store. grew smaller in the distance, the crowd ciieercd' lustily, while the aiv toraobifists jumped to their machines and set off in a line strung out over five miles. Moissant; had hoped to land at London by 7:30, but it was almost when he came down at Sfttingboiirne It took him but a momen tto fix the motor. His eye, inflamed by being hit by rain drops in the channel passage, bothered him, but lie said he would keep on He bad covered twenty miles be fore the next stop, but before he de scended he had gained his first glimpse of Ixndon, resplendent in the morning sun. (utile to Grief. ' ' London, Aug. IS John B. Mois sant, the American architect, came to grief today and narrowly escaped death when victory was in his grasp when he fell in the suburbs of Lon don, after reaching the British me tropolis in his sensational race from Paris for the Daily Mail's f 25,000 prize. He came down in the city's out skirts, three miles east of Crvstnl Palace, .where he had .expected to land with his mechanician, Albert The upper picture shows the hot air balloon of Kcnjamin Prince, the twenty-one year old parachute artist who fell to death from u height of 6,. (MM) feet recently at Asbury Park, New Jersey. He descended with a companion, who dropped first at a medium height, holding on to a trapeze bar susended from a parachute. Prince was to duplicate the feat at a great height. He tailed to strap, the safety belt to the bar imd the shock of the drop loosened his hold and he fell without the parachute. The lower loft hand picture shows Aeronaut Owens ia a dirigible niunoeurcring to avoid a collision with, the grand stand. On the right (iovernor Kort Fileux, whom he carried from along the ground a few yards, rose and darted toward the northwest at an. elevation of 150 feet. As the car ranee... In attempting to continue to. Crystal Palace, where vast crowds were waiting, a stay in his Bleriot monoplane broke and he was pitchedJ into an old brick pit at UrchuriehvJ near Rainham. The engine was fouled in the descent and the pro peller and part of the chassis smashed, hut the driver and his pas senger were only slightly hurt. I'll contine to the place I selected as soon as I can get a propeller," he said. He was cheerful and appeared un shaken by the narrow escape from hitting a clump of trees as he pitched down 400 feet. Moissant is taciturn about himself and it is this trait which made him a man of mystery when he started from Paris. No one knew much about him, as the first time he came Into notice was on his fourth flight, when he swept over Paris and circled the Eiffel Tower. The French derivation of his name caused many to refer to him as M. Moissant. Others dub him "sehor" but he is plain American an Ameri can from Chicago. ' ' ',' He is of the aviator type in build slim, with a highly developed but thoroughly controlled nervous sys tem, and of the mechanical type of mind, with a dash of imagination to carry him through in his daring. He is an architect, 35 years old. He went to Europe for a vacation, be came interested in aviation, invented his machine, bought a Bleriot, and set out to smash records. Xo Prize Money. Moissant suffered a bitter blow this afternoon when it was announc ed that the Daily Mall would give no prize for the ' Paris-London flight. Both Moissant and Hubert Latham supposed when they started from Paris that the prize of $25,000 would be given to the Winner in view of an announcement made by French avia tion societies. . It was said at the Daily Mail office today that the only prize that would be awarded by that newspaper was, that hung up for the 1,000 British circuit in 1911. -To ' ' l.fgK, , . . of Xew Jersev.
