Ponds Largely on Who

NEW YORK. Oct. BIT all depends
upon the ownership OF a car as 70
expense of up keep"
No man is as careful Of some one
else's car as he would be Of his own.
The city Of New York supplies its Of
fcials with automobiles. and a scandal
is brewing for the reason that many OF
these have cost as much to keep going
as was the original purchase price less
than six months ago.
The men who have cars at the city's
expense work ''the graft" apparently %
the limit, for no man operating a car
for himself would ever run up bills
such as the city is required TO pay.
New York is easy" providing 1t pays
the amounts charged up, for no mans
car ever eats up money as have the
city cars during their time Of operation
Providing the purchaser Of a car had
to look any expenditure IN the face
as was rendered by a Bronx Park COM
missioner-a bill for 3. 5s6 for the opera
ton OF his $1,000 car since August
Iast-that autoist would retire. Others

an Interesting chapter on the signs
set at the roadside by village officials.
IN Monmouth county. New Jersey.
there is sign reading: Automobiles
must be moderate. BY order OF the
Freeholders." There is nothing to in
dictate whether moderation in drink or
speed is meant. Up in the CatsItiII
mountains. New York. all road travel
ers are suddenly confronted by a sign
saying: BLOW your horn here and
nothing more.
The motorist knows that this is meant
for him. but it must be & bit startling
to those who have no horn. In north
western Pennsylvania, It has been
thought worth while to try poHteness,
and a sign reads: please 20 slowly
here" That please appeals to almost
every man behind a wheel and he slack
ems his speed. On Long Island there is
a big bullying sign saying: "Autoists
Beware! The speed limit will be strict

that Joseph Feinburg, a Baltimore Jew
eler, who had been selling goods in
Washington, was struck in the head
with a brick while on the Baltimore

first thought that Feinburg had been
shot, because Of the popularity of the
wound.
Feinburg was seated in the smoking
car as the train left Relay station, when

son crashed through the window and

The man was knocked unconscious.

Work Hardship on Poor

LONDON, oct. I9-Some curious

The King and the Prince Of Wales,
both have paDochiRl votes in this divi-
sion. though they 90 not exercise these
rights. They are not, however pre-

ants who are not equally serviceabls to

their right to vote.
Objection Was, however, made at Wal
worth to a man having q vote because
his baby had received fourteen pints
of milk from the poor law authorities
The revising barrister overruled this
objection on the ground that this as
sistance was medical relief" but some
sixty other names were struck or be-
cause. being out OF work, the men had
been compelled to seek relief, mostly
in the shape Of work in the stoneyard.
One Oan lost his vote because, while
ne was in prison for assaultng his wife,
she was granted temporary relief:

Surely, there is some grave fault in

Company. Thinks 1t Good
Investment.

officials Of the Dragon COpmany
state that they do not feel that the
money spent in preparing cup racers
has been thrown away.
John Kane Mills. the president, in
speaking on this subject said recently:
"Of course. had we known in advance
that the American Automobile Asso-
citation was likely to fan down, re
should have considered long and pray
eTfully before going TO an expense Of
$4,000 as we did.
But after we had gone 20 this ex-
pense we naturally figured that it was
worth something in experience, even
If the ledger showed a balance on the
wrong side The net result has been
that we have turned certain informa-
ton and ideas on construction which
have been invaluable TO US.
PrOfted by Experience.
The Dragon Company has used the
experience gained IN building their 10
horsepower racer In the turning out OF a
runabout. which in appearance closely
resembles the big racing car. The car
was built on the same general lines as
the racers. ard think is the first case
IN the history Of automobile construc-
ton that so many ideas supposed to
be the exclusive attendant features on
a high-priced racing car have been EN-
bodied in a popular-priced runabout We
think this viii be evident at the Palace
Show.
we certainly do not begrudge the
money which we have spent in build
ing racer, although the attempt 10
hold the race was abortive. This state
ment is not supposed to imply that we
are pleased with the absence Of a race.
for we have felt all along that our
cars would have as good q show as
any TO win the Vanderbilt Cup this
year But the ideas and experience
gained have proved TO be the silver
lining behind the cloud.
