AUTOMOBILE FACES.

The club which is expected to construct
twenty-mile speedway for automobiles near
Pennington, n j., was not organized at the
meeting held for that purpose on Thursday, but
there is little likelihood that the project will
be abandoned. 1t has too much merit and mas
already developed too much popularity to war
rant any fear on that score. But it would be
pity to postpone work so long that the course
would not be available for the contest for the
Vanderbilt Cup next September. After all, per
haps there is not much danger of that, for a
gratifying degree of interest was manifested
by the men present at the meeting Besides,
while it is evident from the preliminary sur
veys that the site which has virtually been
chosen has all the characteristics deemed es-
sential, other opportunities of securing good
ones have been offered to the organization.
A wise decision was reached by the Lakewood
Motor Club this week when it determined to
postpone the automobile tournament appointed
for April %. That step was made advisable If
not necessary by the refusal Of the New-Jersey
Legisature-or, rather the New-Jersey Senate
to sanction racing on public highways. The
abuse has provoked so much unfavorabe COM
ment in the past that official liberation and en-
couragement of it would be a grave mistake
Sport of this kind with automobiles should De
conducted under conditions similar to those that
govern speed contests between horses. Before
another year elapses it is to be hoped that one
or more Enclosures of the right sort will be
available in New-Jersey alone. In time there
will doubtless be a score of them east OF the
Mississippi River Nothing succeeds like sue

The divine Sarah" is coming to America again.

the direction of Mr. Shubert. Nine. Bernnardt's
performances will be of the standard plays of her
repertOTy, most of which she has not acted for
great many years Among these will be Camille"
"FTOu FrOu Article AZ and two new plays
which she has done in Paris, but which never have
been seen in America
The tour will embrace the principal cities OF the
United States. and Mr.. Shuberts contract specifies
that ii shall positively be the last in America Her
engagements will everywhere be limited to not
more than two weeks. 1t is probable that her ap-
pearance in NeW-YOrk will be at the Lyric Theatre
though that will depend largely on the maturing OF
plans for the presentment of De Wolf Hopper in a
new opera. entitled "Elysia" at that house after
the end of the of "Fantana'' and the Lon
don success of the grand opera company. which Is
one of the biggest ventures of the Shuberts.

PROMINENT SMYRNA
MEN CRITICALLY ILL
Rev. DIR. Watt and DR.. w. V
Messick Are in a Serious
Condition
sneoial to The Evening Journal.

Smyrna, June 6.-Dr. Robert Watt,
pastor of the NJ. +. Church here, and
one of the most prominent figures in
the Wilmington Conference, is serious
ly i'll at his home.
DR. Watt has been very active in
temperance work recently and it is
thought that a cold contracted while
furthering this work in a neighboring
State was the cause Of the internal
trouble from which he is now suffer-
ling.
Another prominent professional man
of Smyrna, DR.. w. V. Messick, has
been i'll for several days from typhoid
fever and his condition is critical. Dr.
T. O. Moore, of this town, specialist
from Philadelphia and two nurses are
in constant attendance and but little
hope is entertained for his recovery.
Besides being exceedingly popular, Dr.
MessicS attends an unusually large
practice which extends over many
miles of upper Kent and lower New
castle counties and to his continual
might and day driving is attributed the
undermining of his health.
The MessiclI family Of Middletown
who are quite prominent in the busi-
mess world, are close relatives of the
sick man and if his condition shall
permit he will be moved there.
