Barney Oldfield's Success

DETROIT, Mich. July 2s.-From bare
living salary OF 500 per year to figures
which compare with the salary the Presi-
dent of the United States receives, Barney
Oidfield has certainly made great jump
in financial earnings. The intrepid cbaut-
feur, who has been in Detroit for the past
few days, admits that he was making only
$500 a year in 1901 At that time he was
doing odd jobs, and there We're times when
he was short the necessary cash for meals.
There were times when l was nearly
starved" said Oldfield. and there were
times when a dime looked big as a barn
to me- This was in 1891.
Since then Oldfeld has become adept
az the auto game. Getting a start here
with Tom Cooper and Henry Ford Old
field, year after year has Increased his
earning capa city Ii was in 1901 tnat CID
field was working for Cooper at mere liz II g
expenses. Today Cooper is wQrkiass Tor
Oldfield, watching the chaufeurs interests
in the theatrical line. Barney OIdflcld
draws his royalties from the Vanderbilt
Cup Race" which proved such zig sue
cess down east.
For this year, and the season is n little
more than half over. Oidfeld has made
over $4,000. He expects to see his carr
ings reach the $4,000 mark before the
snow flies.
Barney has been saving some of this.
He owns a big farm near Toledo and sew
eral houses AT the same time he s1uan-
ders his money freely and is a lavish en-
tertainer With the money coming In as
easily as it does, Barney has no Intention

OARSMEN PREPARING FOR
THE NATIONAL REGATTA

WORCESTER, Mass, July 2S.-Of the
MANY clubs that will send delegations of
oarsmen in the national championship re-
gatta on Lake Quinsgamond next month,
none is working harder than the men undeF
Coach Giannini at Travers Island.
This is the most successful season the
New York Athletic Club has had on the
water in many years, her aquatic triumphs
on the Harlem and in Philadelphia lately
being too recent 20 need further mention
here But what the Mercury Foot root
err are after first and foremost now Is to
win either the intermediate or senior Fights
at the national, or both.
The crew lost its intermediate race in
Philadelphia on July only by the collapse
of one man lust before crossing the finish
line. 1t was leading when the accident
happened, and it was an argument as to
whether or not it was really beaten, so
close was It,
From a perfectly raw state Coach Ga
mimi brought the men up to their present
high standard in the use of the sweep, a
highly credtable piece OF work. Stewart

the association singles.
New York will be strongly represented
at the national regatta. The Staten Is
lard Boat Club. Metropolitan Rowing Club
and Ravenswood Boat Club will send senior
four-oared crews: the Union Boat Club
and Nonpariels will enter intermediate
fours, while several of the other crews are
deciding what 10 send. There will be q
big array of single scullers.
The most consistent workers in the b.
hemian Boat Club are Besely and Major, the
senior double They have started TO pre-
pare for the championship and should put
up u rafting fight for the honors.

standing, it was generally understood that
the Athletic Club of Great Britain and Ire
land was partly Influenced in its decision
by broader motives II was given out
and the decision was welcomed by all SEN
sble motorists and other right-minded
Sportsmen-tnat the club had arrived at
the conclusion that the continuance of the
race could no longer serve useful purpose,
inasmuch as its promotion was only pam
dering to sensationalism by creating an un-
wholesome craving for dangerous motor car
speeds, and 1t was in no Way OF assistance
to the trade. Time was. of course when
races of the Gordon-Bennett type were of
inestimabse value; they brought out the
weakness of car construction. and in this
way played part IN the evolution of the
automobile; while more important still.
perhaps, by attracting public attention by
such exciting contests, the world was made
acquainted with the remarkable efficiency
and possibilities Of the self-propelled We
hicle. That was in the days when the now
ubiquitous motor car had not caught the
popular fancy. and when the design of
automobiles had not settled down upon
standard lines.
But the old order has given place to the
new, for the motor car is now part and
parcel of the everyday world, and every
one with a glimmering of intelligence Is ac-
quainted-more or less fully-with its won
derful capabilities. 1t is therefore remark
able that the automobile club should vesr
right round again and seek TO revive an
event which met with their condemnation
Out a SNORT litilS Since a proposal TO TINS
effect put before "a meeting of the
National Automobile Club held in Paris
previous to the Grand Prix, but France OBJ
jected to organizing another Gordon-B Ben
nett race because of the expense, il was
stated.
Although no one believes this to be the
real reason Of the objection, the ieelslon
must be accepted, and Frances offer to
hand over the cup either to Great Britain
or America for the promotion OF the next
race will not be looked upon by the people
In the know as either sporting or a gen.
ereus act. The offer has not been accepted
right off, but IL will be brought up for
final discussion at meeting to be held in
France during the Paris salon in Decem-
Der next. Perhaps by that time the wire
pullers exciting the A. c. G. b. and L.
circles will have come to a wiser Judg-
ment. The great majority of those en-
gagged in the motor industry are whole
heartedly opposed to the suggested reyi-
val, and the mass of the motoring public
has not the slightest interest in the mat
ter Then, again, the building OF huge
racing monsters is waste of time and a
waste of capital, for their sphere OF USE
fuiness is practically restricted to the sem
sational events for which they are spe.

SEVENTEEN RACES WILL

The preparations for the Middle States

effect that more entries would be received

local committee, has added to the list of

Arundels of Baltimore and Potomacs and
Analostans of this city chance for another
race. The addition OF this race increases
the list of events to seventeen the largest
number that have ever been rowed in
single day, but with the experience of past
years the committee is sanguine that every
race will be rowed off on schedule time

still he should not be subjected TO the temp

For that reason Berger left New York
