PRESERVING sHAkEspERE ROCK.

~. Bliss Generously Assists in Re-

For nearly half century no nat

Of more absorbing interest to the
tourists than the profile Of Shakes
pere SO plainly outlined on the wal
or rocks which rise like a natural
citidal back Of the little Alpine APP
pearing town of Glenbrook.
The first man Who discovered the
striking natural picture of Shakes
pere on the rock was Capt. Todman
and the name he gave to the rock
has always chung to It.
It looked as if Dame Nature, wish
ing to keep the poets memory green
had selected the most beautiful nat
ural scenic spot in the world AMI
then emblazoned the likeness there
foEeser.
OF late years, however, the moss
which forms the poets beard and some
of the discOiorations of the rock
which marks the eye Gin fine frenzy
rolling" has succumbed to the gnaw-
ing tooth of Time and the likeness
has shown signs of fading out. D.
L. Bliss, however. who used to have
his magnificent home there, has
sworn that the likeness OF the great
playwright should not die. He has
sent men up there, hung on rope scas
folding, with paint pot and brush am
they have "retouched" the old Bare
of Avon so that he looks more like
his old self than ever. With a de
sire to further perpetuate the genera
appearance of SHAKESPEARE they have
added a few ruff1es to his collar an;
otherwise fixed him up.
The steamer line owned by Bliss
owes much of it's income to the de
sire on the part of the tourists to SCI
the natural likeness of Shakespe-'
and the Company proposes to kee,
the poets memory gree if they hav'
to paint it themselves.

READY FOR AUTO RACES.
Snec;aI D;soatcb "a Evening Can,.ai


Ormond, Fla, jan. 2l-Everything
is in readiness for the great motor
racing tournament TO be held here
next week. The programme arranged
for the occasion and the many promi.
nent automobile racers here assure the
success of the meeting, which will be
the third held over the famous Or
mond- Daytona beach course. Record
breaking trials by the famous machines
will be feature of the tournament,
and there is considerable speculation
as to just how far the present records
will be reduced. During the first
tournament Winton coveredsthe course
in % 90 seconds, but this record was
practically forgotten last year when
William K Vanderbilt, Jr., drove his
machine a mile in the remarkable time
of 80 seconds Nothing short of a
mile in so seconds would electrify the
public now. who seem TO have become
accustomed to these marvellous miles
of speed Experts firmly believe the
two miles in one minute will be re-
corded here during the coming week
By some of the high power cars. The
races will undoubtedly be more inter
esting this year than ever before.
This is due TO the great number of en-
tries. In fact. so much interest has
been aroused over the respective meNts
of the various machines that several
New York bookmakers are here TO lay
prices on the different racing events.
