A POSTPONED FLIGHT.
(Per Press Association.) WELLINGTON, Mar. 23
Aviator Scotland was unfortunate again this evening, his intended flight at Athletic Parkbeing abandoned on account of gusty winds and threatening heavy rain, which. lateP fell in torrents. On Saturday afternoon, when it was announced that the airman would not fly, some of the crowd became* demonstrative and gathered round the machine in a threatening manner. The police intervened, and dispersed the crowd. Some hustling took place, however, in the course of which Sergt. Murphy had a wrist broken. .
