from the effects Of the ID hoodoo nevertheless.
He extremely nervous when he was sent
away at the start, and he completed only one
round of the course when he quit. Cedrino, Sar-
tori and Nazzaro, the three other members Of the
Italian team, all made excellent ShoWings, al
though they failed to finish. Nazzara and Sar-
tori both completed eight rounds of the course,
and were still in the running when the race
ended. Cedrino had to drop out early ac-
count of tire trouble
RACE WELL MANAGED.
The race was well managed throughout, ex-
cept when the crowd broke onto the track at the
finish. Ten laps of 2S.3 miles each. or a total Of
2S3 miles was voted by most OF the spectators
however, to be too long race. The merits Of
the contendng cars and drivers would have
been tried out just well I'D the race been at
half the distance. Next year the third race for
the Vanderbilt Cup will be held in France, as,
according to the deed Of gift, the race goes to
the country of the winner after the first two
years.

CROWDS AT THE RACE
Weird Scenes as the Day Breaks
Some of Those Present.

The crowds which gathered to see the race
were not the least interesting feature of it
That something unusual was in the air was
evident in the theatre and hotel district of New
York Friday night. There are always many
automobiles to be seen in this part of the city
at night but midnight a rule. finds most
of them dispensing. This was not the case on
Friday night. The headquarters for those who
going to see the Vanderbilt Cup race
seemed to be at the Waldorf-Astoria, and there
the buzz wagons" began to gather toward
8 a m.
From there long line of motor carriages Of
all sorts and shapes started for the East 34th-
st ferry to take passage for Long Island City
AS soon the line started other autos" began
TO whirl in from every direction. The result
was so much congestion at the ferry entrance
that the police had to take hand and form
the autos" in a long line up 1st-ave.. whence
they We're gradually allowed to board the fer
ryboats
Once in Long Island City the autos imme-
diately set sail for Mineola, while those less
fortunate obliged to push and shove to
get aboard one of the specials
The early morning scenes at Mineola were
weird in the extreme The race was scheduled
to start at a. sharp and hour earlier
the crowds began to throng toward the course.
Daylight vas just beginning to break, and the
motor cars from New~York and the surrounding
country were just arriving All had lights burn
ing of course and the glare and flare OF the
lamps and the uncanny footing of many of the
horns combined to give the situation a decidedly
novel and almost ghostly appearance.
BY $50 Z. m. it light enough to see objects,
and shortly after a glorious day in full
swing The racing cars were out on the course
early and mingled with the touring cars and the
pedestrians and as a result some bad accidents
We're narrowly averted.
The crowd which was on hand for the start Of
the race was not large, but it kept increasing
Comparatively little trouble was experienced by
Just before the start a big automobile drew up
in front of the grandstand and brought Mrs
William K. Vanderbilt, jr., and party of
friends Mrs. Vanderbilt of the few
who guessed the weather rightly. She wore a
white flannel suit which in striking con-
trast to many of the winter toilettes of the
grandstand. AS the day was not only an ideal
but also decidedly warm one. those who
dressed too warmly were soon regTetting 1t.
William h Vanderbilt jr., the donor of the
$1,000 trophy, was the life of the official group
in front of the grandstand. He shook each
driver by the hand he started him off and
wished him luck. Mrs. Vanderbilt too, took
lively interest in the races, and spent a gOody
part Of the time perched up the railing of
the box, where she presented decidedly pretty
and picturesque appearance, but seemed likely
at any moment to topple over on to the course.

THE HAIRPTN CURVE.
Incidents of the Race as Seen from
This Dangerous Point.

Mineola, Long Island, Oct, 14-There was a busy
time at the Hyde Park turn in the Vanderbilt Cup
to-day trying to keep the too eager spectators
from being The turn is a right angle
and of the most dangerous the course. as
long straight stretch leads up to it. which the
cars gathered great speed The daring drivers
frequently came down to the turn without shutting
of the power until they were almost the curve
Then they would go round two wheels with the
machinist hanging far out and skid down the
gutter for fifty yards the Hyde Park side Of the
corner.
It one Of the most exciting spots the
course and attractive place for the crowd, who
would get off the train at Hyde Park station and
saunter down the course to the turn. A large num-
Der gathered there when the race began, and
the first around, Jenatzys, had narrow es-
cape from moving down half a hundred. After
that the drivers became better acquainted with the
turn. but the crowd, constantly augmented. be-
came more reckless
Many would get out the road to the cars
come down to the turn, and all the efforts of the
deputy sheriffs could drive them back until the
right top of them. Hardly passed

than nip at his coattails. The man hustled away
before his identity could be learned
It was generally supposed that the turn Lake

name of the 'harpn" curve but it turned out

COURSE Il FAST ONE.
Generally Regarded as the Best in
the World for Road Racing.

The twenty-eight mile course over which the
race was run without serious accident and in
record time. is now regarded the fastest auto
mobile circuit in the world.
Between Lakeville and New Hyde Park and New
Hyde Park and Jericho, two splendid speeding
stretches are offered Some OF the other parts ara
narrow and in some places rough. There are two
grade crossings at Mneoa and Albertson over

Lord shaftesbury's father and mother
stopped at the inn, having their young
ser son, the future lord, with them. In
conversation the innkeeper spoke Of
the genius Of his boy in drawing and
wished them to tcstzit by 4 picture Of

crafty a fathers pride, but not look
ing for any evidence of superior talent.
The boy came in modestIy, with chalk
and paper. and in a few minutes had

tile parents looked with wonder. They
recognized the genius and the promise
of future greatness and befriended the
