effect was put before a meeting of the

BARNEY OLIF F.ELD IS
MAKING GOOD MONEY
His Earnings Now Compare

DETROIT, Mich. July 2S.-From a
bare living salary Of $500 per year to
figures which compare with the salary
of the President of the United States,
Barney Oldfeld has certainly made a
great jump in financial earnings.
The intrepid chauffeur, who has been
in Detroit for the past few days, ad-
mits that he was only making $500 a
year in 1901. At that time he was do
ing odd jobs and there were times when
he was short the necessary cash for
meals.
"Thcre were times when l was near
ly staryed,' said Oldfield, "and there
were times when dime looked as big
as barn to me- This was in 1901.
Adept at Auto Game.
Since then Oldfeld has become an
adept at the auto game. Getting
start here with Tom Cooper and Henry
Ford, Oldfeld, year after year, has in
creased his earning capacity. 1t was

Cooper at mere living expenses. To
day Cooper is working for Oldfeld,
watching the chauffeur IS interests in
the theatrical line. Barney Oldfeld
draws his royalties from the "Vander-
bilt Cup Race which proved such a
big success down East.
Barney Likes the Coin
For this year, and the season is a
little more than half over, Oldfeld has
made over $4,000. He expects to see
his earnings reach the $4,000 mark

He owns big farm near Toledo and
several houses. AT the same time he
squanders his money freely and is a

Fed Turner Kills Pink Smith.

At Z O'Clock Monday morning, Dec.
Sd, Fed Turner shot and killed Pink
Smith, under circumstances that seem
to Justify the homicide. The two men
were respected farmer citizens living
near Ada, twelve miles east of Colfhx,
md have many friends who deplore
the unfortunate tragedy. They had
a land transaction n day or two be-
fore, and Smith claimed that Turner
owed him some money, which he said
he would make him pay or kill him.
This threat seems to have been made
at different times to two or three par
ties, and WAS communicated to Tur-
ner. who avoided a meeting. When
Smith appeared at Turner's gate
Monday morning with his shotgun
in hand, Turner partly opened his
door and presenting his shotgun fired
a load of 81 turkey shot into Smiths
breast, killing him instantly.
Both men have families, Smith be-
ing about 81 years of age, while Tur-
ner was about 30. AT the prelimi-
nary trial before Judge Blackman on
Wednesday, Turner WAS released, be-
ing permitted to 90 his own bond for
the nominal sum of 500.
