Race and Aviation Meet a Success The Race and Aviation meet which closed last Friday afternoon was the most successful ever held by the local association, both in points of atten dance and the success of the races. The association will come out about square on the meet. The flights made by Aviator Bononer the Molsant bird man, were spec tacular and thoronghly enjoyed by the large crowd and there is no question but that the presence of the air ship was in a measure responsible for the splendid crowds that were present each day. The flight last Thursday evening was the best flight made during the meet. On that evening about 7 o’clock he arose from the grounds in front of the grand stand and soared away to the north west, going probably two miles out in the country. He then turned to the south and soared over the city, going south of the Elkhorn and back over the race track, where he soared over heads of the crowd; then turned west and soared over the convent and again south of the river. On this second turn he rose to a height of 2,500 feet. It was a very beautiful sight to see him soaring and eating up space like a giant vulture. On this flight he covered about fifteen miles and when he returned to earth was greeted with atremenduous cheer by the couple of thousand, people who had assembled on the fair grounds to witness the flight. On Friday evening he made another pretty flight but was not as long, nor did he reach the height he did upon the night before. He had intended making two flights Friday evening, but engine troubles prevented him making the Second flight. Following is the result of the races Thursday and Friday: 2:20 trot: Gladiator, first; Patsy W., second; Welma B., third and McElmo fourth. 2:25 pace: Queen L., first; Dr. Jim P„ second; Yellowstone third and Gretchen fourth.
