AMERICA LEADS IN MOTORS.
French Manufacturers outstripped in
the Race Already.

Paris.-"Just as American agricul-
tural machines do practically all the
work in the fields throughout Europe,
so it will certainly be in a couple of
years with American automobiles on
Ill the roads in Europe. France point
ed out the automobile way, America
will reap all the profit by walking in
it."
So laments the trade journal of the
French motor car makers. 1t asserts
that careful scrutiny of the machines
touring the great auto routes in
Europe this summer proves that the
United States is rapidly making for
supremacy in the construction of auto
mobiles; a supremacy which France
occupied only a year or two ago and
from which it seemed she lever was
to be dethroned.
Foreign travellers nov bring over
their own machines and these are
often American, even while their own
ers are not. The writer says, almost
tearfully, that most of the safest,
strongest and most nearly silent motor
cars he met in various countries were
American made.
Germany and Italy make most of the
scorchers and racers.

eAee WEARS FAMOUS DRESS.
Infant Has Frock Once Worn by VIII
liam Henry Harrison.

Emporia, Kan.-Marianna, the 16-
months-old daughter Of DR.. and Mrs.
Horace Whittlesey of Emporia, is the
owner of a dress worn by William
Henry Harrison, once president of the
United States, when he was a baby
in old Virginia. William Henry Har-
rison was born in 1873. Miss Ellen
Windsor, who was "Tippecanoe" Har-
rison's nurse, was given the dress by
the mother of the ~ex-president. She,
in turn, gave it to her friend, Mrs.
Chaplin, for her baby to wear.
Years afterward Mrs. Chaplin passed
it on to her friend, Mr.. j.. G. Whittle-
sey, and Horace Whittlesey was the
next baby to wear the little garment.
Mrs. Horace Whittlesey dressed little
Mariana in the famous frock the
other day, but she didn't allow her to
make mud pies while she had it IN
in fact, she wore it only half an hour,
and the dress was then put carefully
away.
The pretty little garment is made
with low neck and short sleeves, and
is n piece from neck to hem. 1t is
shirred at the top, the hem finished in
genuine Mount Mellick embroidery,
and French knots are scattered over
the dress. The material is the finest
linen.

DEATH OF WIFE OF
SUPERINTENDENT CLARK,

Mrs. Dyer o. Clark, younger daugh-
ter of the late Governor Boyd, and sis
ter-in-law of Senator G. ID. Clark OF
Wyoming, succumbed to a long illness
and died at her home, Twenty-irst and
Cass streets, Tuesday morning, says
the Omaha Bee. The death of Mrs
Clark ome as a severe blow to a wide
circle of friends, all of whom looked
upon it as an honor extended them to
be numbered among her acquaintance.
Mrs. Clark was a resident of Omaha
since her childhood and was born in
Nebraska. She was a woman of rich
est culture and high attainment, and
travelled extensively in Europe and the
orient. Although she was capable of
the most exalted social position to
which she might aspire she was OF a
retiring nature, her tastes being more
for study and research. Her unusual
personality and goodness, therefore,
came within the notice of a smaller
number, but she became endeared to
them in a manner which will leave her
memory one of the cherished treasures
of their experiences.
Three years ago she was married to
Mr.. Clark, the superintendent of the
Union Pacific Coal company.

which the proprietor could not think
of accepting, but he asked her name
