JEFFRIEs PICKS CANS.

James ]. Jenries. the undisputed
champion of the world of pugilism
says that Joe Cans viii be the win
ner of the big fight at Goldfield on
Labor day. In speaking of the fight
Jeffries said:
''If Cans and Nelson fight on the
square, the black man will walk away
with the contest, and you may set
it down that George Siler is good
enough at every stage of the game
to get results that will mean straight
fighting. So far as Nelson and Cans
are concerned as fighters. 1t is like
superb race horse running against
a dray horse. Nelson is gritty and
willing and also strong. but he is a
truck horse compared with Cans"

In getting the tar to adhere properly. Ex-
periments have been made with the con-
struction OF q granite road by spreading
the broken stone. dry rolling e In the or
binary way, and then pouring hot tar over
IL, instead OF watering, for the final rolling.
Close observation seems to that
the road surface is in use, the tar IN grad
uRlly worn on the outer surface OF the top
stones, and then they absorb the water
during wet weather, n afterward sweat
from the other surfaces, thus forcing them
selves out OF the mass of the @ by a
floating film of water below them.
IF the subsoil ia Of an absorbent nature,
the tar will be found to have left the granite
considerable depth. From the many ex-
amples Of tar painting that i have studied
Ihave come to the conclusion that the great
mistake has been In the use Of tar as it is
usually sold. Much better results have
been found when the tar has been distilled,
a the process is usually termed-that is to
say when the ammoniacal liquors and other
volatile parts nav been distilled out. But
this process Of distillation is not sufficient,
as the tar Is still capable of considerable
further alteration after application. In
many cases, all that mas remained after use
in the tar paving has been a brittle sub
stance Of the nature Of pitch, which frac-
tures under the impact of steel tire3, and the
paving breaks up. What is required IL the
addition Of some material that will tougher
the tar, IN mucn the same way that pitch Is
~toughened for insulating purposes. Apav-
ing prepared with suoh a toughened tar
should always remain sufficiently elastic
to prevent fracture under the impact Of
steel tires, and at the same time sufficiently
rigid TO resist the drawing force OF traction
engine driving wheel when IL is used to i'm
part motion to a string Of loaded wagons.
Unfortunately the asphalts put on the
market at present require a concrete foun-
dation Of great strength for their successful
use, and, therefore, are impossible from
financial considerations outside the large
towns. II is not improbable that expert
ments with some refuse material worked
up with asphalt would result In producing
a cheap waterproof paving, which would
probably have to be laid In the shape Of
Unfortunately no tests have been

Medical Examinations for Autoists.

Automobiles desiring to secure licenses
10 operate cars in France must here after
be examined by physicians. according to
the Hospital Of London, which says: 40

the Channel no one will in future be granted
a license who is not able to prove, in adj
dition to the necessary technical knowledge,
exemption from any physical infirmity
which would tend to involve unfitnes IS for
the control of a car. This means, Of course,
that a medical examination must be SUBJ
mitted to before a motorist can be licensed.
The condition is objected to, but there is
obviously a great deal to be said in its favor,
both in the interests Of the public and of
the drivers themselves, whether paid chauf-
feurs or amateurs. 1t 10 not compatible
with accepted ideas OF security of either

hand is rendered unste ady by drinking

ness should be allowed to. add enormously
to the risks OF serious accidents on the
road. We are by no mo ans sure that the
time for observing similar precautions with
respect to motoring in the United Kingdom

sumption that any one who cannot pass the
necessary medical examination is no more
properly qualified to steer a moter car than

sponsibility for the safety OF his vessel or

New Jersey porsessed In 1905 an sutomo-
bills law which. In the msins was mose satis-
factory, non~-reoognition Of tho rsg~istrations
Of other States being its only CARING fault
says Automobile. This good law was
frightfully abused, and Of this thsrs 10 not
the slightese doubt, non-residents Of the
commonwealth being the greatest Offenders
It was inevitable that this abuss should b
followed by q drastic measure, shorn some
what Of It's obnoxious features before pas
sage, but going TO the Chief Executive In q
condition far from reassuring to automo-
bilists. The hberality OF one law was 10
placed by the arbitrary features OF the
so-called Frelinxhuyssn measure. Though
its compilers and those subsequently In
trusted with its endorsement have ocn-
tended that its strictness and tyrannical
features ave been exsggerateds tho fact
remains that many touring automobiles
from surrounding States have studiously
kept away from New Jersey.
And now comes Commissioner OF Motor
Vehicles Smith with suggestions OF changes
in the present law, and what he suggests
are truly radical n unq~uestionably i'm
provements to the present statute. Mr..
Smith would do a waywith the examination
Of automobile drivers, considering Il un-
necessary; he Is willing that there should
DO greater speed in the open districts, be-
heving that operators will then be moro
careful where the traffio IL heavier, and
arrests without warrants Ii another thing
that the Commissioner condemns without
hesitation. But he would have larger
numbers to make Identification easier. and
he would have serious violations classed
as misdemeanors, so that the offenders
could be extradited IL residents Of other
States.
Trials before Justices Of the Peace 30
frequently result from the whims of rural
~oonstables that Mr.. Smith would nave these
trials confined to IN Courts of Common
Pleas. He oven thinks that there should
be opportunity Of appeal from the revoking
OF licenses by the Commissioner, arguing
that no one man should have any such
power.
Furthermore, Mr.. Smith places himself
on recon as being In favor OF Interstate
Identification tags, which ia a step toward
the recognition Of interstate licenses. All
around, IL would appear hat the Commits
sioner OF Motor Vehicles OF the State of New
Jersey, Is q result Of his tenure OF Office,

terday. 1T dates back to the days OF former
President Shattuck, who had ambitions
to pose as the father Of all motorists. There
Is no more good and sufficient reason to
make the Automobile Club Of America
the national organization than there 10 TO

TO the title as has the New York associa-
ton, which IL solely and purely q local

gone by 1t did exercise Jurisdiction over

AS to its>abilty to run matters, that Is
not questioned. To DO sure some years ago
it made even a worse mess Of selecting a
racing team for international events than
has ever been committed by the American
Automobile Association. Its selection OF
an engineering committee to determine the
qualifications of entrants for the Gordon
Bennett race, and the famous trip across
the country has not been forgotten by

other organizations in the country, al
though perhaps not a old, but fully as
strong as the A. c. A., would not for q mo-
ment tolerate the management or control
of the national affairs by a New York Or
ganization.
The American Automobile Association is
fully capable OF maintaining its position as
the national automobile association. It is
recognized abroad as the one powerful or
ganization in this country, and its work in
the past has all been carried out with the
idea of giving the motorists OF the country
the best that can possibly be secured through
organized efforts. At its coming meeting
the Board OF Directors OF the association
propose to take measures which will result
in the A. A. A. becoming a stronger national
organization than ever. Its system of
representation will unquestionably become
more powerful and the local organizations
will nave representation on the State and
national bodies according to the number
of their members. The general idea is to
so strengthen the association by club and
individual memberships that there will
never be IN question as to the governing
body Of American motoring and motorists
