This expression is but one of many
that are to be heard at every local
agency regarding the demand for i'm

sadly put to 1T trying to make the best
of the Situa ton.
The arrival of the new 1907 Rambler
occasioned a busy period of inspection,
and the verdict rendered would place
the incomerS as among the finest ap-
pearing machines yet seen on the
local market.
A. Harmon of Riverside, who is
touring the coast in his 24horse pawer
Rambler, writes to the effect that he
experienced a pleasant trip to Sacra-
mento and on to Lake Tahoe. The
eighty-mile run from Folsom to Tahoe
was covered on low speed for twenty
seven miles, but nine gallons os gaso-

GOLDFIELD, New, Aug. 1S.-Both
Cans and Nelson declared themselves
pleased with the selection of George
Siler of Chicago as referee
Cans said: He's the best known
man of all the referees and his record
Is clear. am glad he has been Sc
1ected.''
Said Nelson: 1--WE are sure of
square decision now and there'll be no
kicking"
Siler wired his acceptance last night
just before IL o'clock. He will arrive
in Goldfield September 1.
John Morris of Tonopah, known as
"King of the Greeks" will figure in
one of the preliminaries, and several
hundred Greeks of Nevada and Cali
fornia have bought tickets. Morris will
fight at $50 pounds for purse of $1,000
His opponent has not yet been selected
Nat Goodwin. the actor will attend
the fight as the guest of Milton Detch
of the local club Dorothy Morton
who is now here, declares her intention
of attending also. An estimate of the
attendance this early is placed at
10000 at least.
Joe Cans spent an hour in consuIta-
ton with l.. M. Sullivan, his hacker
and manager, at noon today. At the
close of the conference Cans was asked
what had happened. With broad grin
on his face the negro fighter replied,
See Mr.. Sullivan"
Sullivan, who since his championship
of Cans has been the center of attrac-
tion of the sporting world, received the
newspaper men in his bedroom. He is
still suffering from the effects of a fall
from his horse while following Cans on
his road work a few weeks ago
A heavy rain fell in God6eld last
night and caused an alarming fall in
temperature. Sullivan evidently caught
cold and this morning his chest, which
was wrenched severely in the accident,
was highly inf1amed.
He dictated the following statement
for the press with difficulty:
Cans is highly pleased with the
selection of Mr.. Siler as referee He
has given me a power of attorney to
bet his share of the purse, $4,000, on
the contest
Laughingly Sullivan declared: "On
Cans himself. of course. Cans feels
that the one thing necessary to a fight
has been attained in Siler's selection as
referee. His bet is merely mark of
his confidence in the outcome under
these conditions.
PERSONALLY" said Mr.. Sullivan, al
was opposed to Mr.. Siler's selection.

as ever stepped into a ring, / wish he

DICK HYLAND AND
THOMPSON WORK
FAST LIGHTWEIGHTS TRAINING
HARD
Both Boys Confident of Victory That
Will Place Them in Position
to Challenge the
Champion

Fighting Dick Hyland and Cyclone
Thompson are two of the busiest ring
youngsters that have worked in South
ern California preparatory to a contest,
the outcome of which must necessarily
bear upon a future championship af-
fair.
Northern trust managers are talking
of Jimmy Britt as a probable principal
in some near championship battle, but
small heed will be paid them should
Hyland or Thompson secure a decisive
victory. Jimmy long since demonstrat-
ed that he has seen his best days in
the ring. There are certain things
which some top notchers apparently
cannot stay away from sufficiently long
to retain untarnished the laurels which
they have won in times past, and Britt
is to all appearances one of them.
Beaten by the man whom Young
Corbett whipped years ago, the Britt
boy does not loom up as candidate
for championship contests. Neverthe-
less he will probably be pushed to the
front bv frere Willus and a fe wof his
trust friends.

ARE TOURING
THOUSAND OF MOTORISTS FLY
OVER TH0R0UeHFARES
Dealers Experience Busy Season In
Endeavor to Comply With De-
msnd Which Distinguishes
Present Auto Era

With thousands OF touring parties
enjoying the Incompatible outdoor
life that only Southern California can
afford, local dealers are busy receiving
and ordering new cars for the heavy
season that must follow the present
year.
A marked impetus has been given
automoblling in the south by reason of
the consistent motoring which has
marked the past season, Though the
rainy period checked for a moment the
sport, country roads give evidence Of
the permanent hold which the horseless
machine has made upon Southern Call
fornia citizens, and little or no rest will
be given those who handle the auto
output.
There appears to be growing tend
ency throughout the country that en-
durance tours will soon be thing of
the past. Formerly means of dis
playing manufacturing perfection, the
steady Improvement which is being at
tanned, coupled with the fact that
practically every up-to-date manufac-
tory in the country Is placing only
thoroughly reliable machines on the
market there seems small need for
further exhibition of endurance quality.
Endurance Runs
The recent Glidden tour ended in no
satisfactory manner, despite the fact
that a large number of cars finished
the run with perfect scores. The prob
lem which confronted the management
was as to what car should be awarded
the prize, and as more than one pos
sessed an equal right to the trophy,
dssa tisfaction ensued.
The automobile is rapidly becoming
as common a vehicle as any other road
machine. A contest involving the
endurance capabilities of a carriage
would be looked upon as foolish and
unnecessary. From every indication
the automobile will soon be in a posi-
tion where the purchasing of different
makes will be almost entirely a ques-
tion of individual preference.
AS an exhilarating and profitable
pastime touring has probably no peer
so far as motive power is concerned,
and in addition to the mercantile value
of the machine a few hours on the
road render ample reward for the time
spent. Business men who have taken
to the automobile are claiming that
run along the Southern California
roads, even though limited to once
week, is better than any spring or
summer tonic which might be taken to
enliven tired nerves.
