John Jacob Astor's Motor Cars.
His Consuming Hobby Buy Every Style Automobile That
Meets His Fancy While His Fine Horses Have Nothing Do But Eat

Boston and back; he has been in nu-
merous club runs. All the big events
in the racing line are taken in by him,
and the interest that he shows in the
various races clearly reveals the firm
grip that the hobby has on him.
"Astor's fad for things military is
pretty strong" said a man who knows
him well, but il is not to be mentioned
in the same breath with his hobby for
motor cars. He's clean daffy' about
them"
You may recall that it was this AS
tor who gave a battery to the govern
ment in the Spanish war, equipping the
soldiers, TO the slightest detail, at his
own expense. He also enlisted and
served In Cuba as colonel. When he
was on the military staff of Governor
Morton of New York he is said to have
paid the rather heavy expenses of
members worth much less of this
worlds goods than he possesses by
reason of the first Astor's ability to
look into the future and his consequent
shrewd investments in New York real
estate.
In the days of their infancy the beacl,
races in Florida We're helped along ma
terially by Mr.. Astor, but he has not
driven machine in the races as has
William K. Vanderbilt jr., and other
rich and ardent friends of the motor

thusiastic onlookers at the yearly road

STRIKE MANIFESTO
People Called Upon to Rise and
Overthrow the Government.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 6.-The former
deputies composing the Social Democrat
and Labor parties, Polish and Jewish
committees and various revolutionary
bodies have issued the following joint
manifesto:
''ro the Whole Nation-Citizens: A
fortnight has elapsed since the govern
ment dissolved the lower house of par
lament. 1t laughed at the nations rep
reSentation and set the whole people at
defiance Russia has received this new
crime OF the autocratic power in sullen
silence. The government rejoices at this
victory, but the thunder of guns at Svea-
borg and Cronstadt proved this rejoicing
TO be premature. The army and the navy
have raised the standard of instruction
against the oppressors of the people. The
roar of the guns at Sveaborg and Cron-
Russian attack on the autocracy. A new
and decisive struggle for land and liberty
has begun. The lessons of the past will
not have been in vain
THE imperial manifesto OF Oct. 30
proved deceitful, and state douma is
without authority and unable to satisfy
a sif>gle national need.
"The people see now they can hope and
expects nothing as long as the state power
is in the hands of it's enemies. The object
is not an unauthoritative parliament, but
a constitutional assembly, with full pow
ers elected by universal, equal. direct and
secret suffrage. The people must apply
themselves. Citizens, all to whom free
dom is dear we call on you for a deciS
siVe struggle against the government or
the emperor, for a national government
and for land and liberty. We call on you
perial government and the authorities de-
pending thereon.
Long live the general strike and the
decisive struggle for national power!

Trouble in the Caucasus
Growing Worse.

Tiflis, Aug. 6.-According to a telegram
from the district chief of Sangesur to
General Golochtkapoff, Tartars attacked
and fought a pitched battle with Rus

tars were 1900 strong and occupied very
favorable positions. The extent of their
losses is not known.
After prolonged bombardment by the
Russians the Tartars hoisted the white
flag. but the district chief learned il was
a ruse and that he TartaFs were prepar-
ing for a night attack He therefore al
tered the position of his troops under COW
er of darkness to meet the emergency.
Another message from the district chief
of SangeSur, who compands sotnia OF
Cossacks and section of artillery, says
the village of Hasanavar is surrounded by
Tartars and appeals for reinforcements
from ShusEa. General Golochtkapoff re-
ports that several soldiers. fifteen Armen-
ians and many Tartars have been killed
since the recommencement of hostilities
last Friday.
Tartar positions We're occupied by the
Russian troops yesterday and the Tartars
are now proposing peace.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Aug. 6.-The rail-

The railroads anticipate such large
crowds from the territory within their
district that more than three days will
be needed to handle all the extra traffic.
For that reason they will begin the sale
of cut rate tickets on Monday and con-
tinue until Tuesday. August -.
