C6ayIes Wridgeqoay, Ntqs 1000 Mile Anto Record
 HoLder---Athiefcs.

Charles G. Wrldgeway is the new holder of the worlds auto record for a thousand miles. He performed the feat recently in aa all niS.it and all day run at Brighton Beach, New York.
 Wridgeway beat the worlds record for a continuous 1000 mile run at tine beach track by hours 8 minutes and SC seconds, finishing at 11:2S:36 a. n. His time was 25 hours 90 minutes and second
 The best previous time for the dls- tance was made by Charles Schmidt at Detroit. Mich. last year.
 Wridgeway's machine was of twenty four horsepower. and he did not stop his engine once. He was almost ez- hausted when he completed the run.
 Wridgeway had made POO miles in l hours 43 minutes and seconds. and the next fifty miles showed the stop watches at . hours 5S minutes and SC seconds. The time was megaphoned to Wridgewsy and be nodded his head again and put on just the slightest perceptibie increase of speed until be bad made 3C0 miles. covering these if ty miles in l hosr 6 minutes and i seconds.
 The grinding monOtony of the thing wore on some of the watchers. who followed the swiftly moving vehicle with their eyes. It was much like watching a clocks pendulum constant Y for hours. Now tbe machine was charging head on and growing larger in infnitesimal time. now dartins past and retreatins ia cloud of dust
 And through it all Wridgeway's hand was as steady as his pace. He saved every available inch of ground. making his turns ss sharply as possible. Only a couple of times did he stop. and these stops he used to stretch his leg s.
 Once one of his tires became loose. and as he tore around he pointed to it. The helpers were soon hustllng. and L.y the time he had rounded the track :, few times they had new Sdtc. Hc slowed down, stopped. and then the helpers were at their task in flash. It seemed only few seconds when chug. cEug. chus, chug, chug. and the little racer with a velvety pUrr threw another lap or the brown track behind. Another time Wridgeway was forced to stop, not only to get new tire. but also to take on water and gasoline; but. ail told. this took little more than a minute. when again the car gave a snort and jumped out after that record that Wridgeway kept constantly in mind
 II was very evideat even before the 300 mile mark was reached that unless some accident occurred Wr;dgeway was bound to beat the GOO mile track zee ord made by Charles Schmidt It was then estimated tllat the recent race

The executive and advisory cJamit- tees of the Intercollegiate Association of Amateur Athletes Of America met in Philadelphia recently and discussed among other things a meeting between ;he western and eastern track cham pions. r. B. Ellis, graduate manager of the intercollegiate games and also manager of the University of Peunsyl- vania relay meet was the originator of this idea.
 His plan was to hold tho inJcrc0lle- glate championships and the confer enee track meet on the same day, and then the first and second men in each event in both meets compete a week later. The result of this meet would determine the champions of America. It was the idea to have the eastern team go west the first year and then have the westerners. come east in tie following year.
 There is little likelihood of the proj- ect going through this year, as both as- sociatOns have already arranged for their championship meetings.

MiSHAPS TO GREAT PAINTER.
Verestchagin Did Wonderful Work
with MutIated Hand.

A group OF war correspondents were
talking about the unhappy Russian
painter, VereStchagin.
Did You ever notice his right
hand?' one said.
Indeed, yes" said another, How
defOrmed it was. 1t seemed incapable
of creating those grim pictures
"Verestchasin," resumed the first
correspondent, "once held up his right
hand before me with a sad smile. The
thumb was gone. "A leopard he said,
bit my thumb to the bone-it had to
be amput&ted.' The middle finger
stuck straight out, he could not bend
it. "A bullet once passed through this
finger, leaving it good for nothing, he
said. Then he moved the hand about
with an odd. stiff motion. Several OF
the small bones he explained, were
shattered in fall from a pony on the
steppes. The muscles have been stiff
ever since
"Verestchagin's right hand endured
much before in the end it sunk in the
cold sea, but it never lost its cunning
with the brush.

is that the buried ruins are almost

Loafinq in House of Commons.

T. P. O'Connor, the brilliant pub.
licist and member of parliament, says
in a late article that the house of
commons is a house of loafers. He
contrasts the dogs life" of men,
Der of the house of representatives
in Washington with the idleness of the
average NJ. P. Men noted for their in.
dustry in literary, professional or
business lives entering parliament are
at once struck with the unbusinesslike
methods prevailing. They struggle
against the feeling of inertia, but
gradually become SO accustomed to
the creaky, unwieldy, cumbrous, i'm
mutable parliamentary machine that
they lose courage, hope and even
faith" 1t is impossible to do any
work in the house of commons. Mr.
O'Connor asserts from experience and
observation, although he notes one or
two exceptions to the rule.

Power of Public Opinion.

The man who defined public opinion
as the stupidity of one multiplied by
the stupidity of many" preferred cpl
gram to truth. 1t is sometimes the
outgrowth Of an impulsive jumping
at conclusions" But public opinion is
fundamentally honest, and when it
jumps at conclusions it is usually
found condemning something which,
at the time, has the appearance of
evil. The man who is scrupuous in
his business dealings and who
evinces a fine sense of morality in
the conduct of public Office need never
fear public opinion. This has the pow
er to help along public morality by
demanding closer adherence to high
Ideals than the law can possibly pre-
