VIII supply that
mo, l want big one"
Barney oIdfield Present
Barney Oldfeld was the center of
| much feminine attraction as he stood
| by his famous Green Dragon. Barney
scintillates as does every daredevil,
whatever the nature of his play.
Oldteld looks the part of a man who
would risk his life. He is a big hand
some fellow with an eye that says 1T
am not afraid of you" Barney has not
yet been discovered without a cigar,
and took sundry puffs at huge per-
fecto last night as he professed to be no
lion.
The cigar probably aids Barney in
keeping his equilibrium when on the
social way as it does when flying at
ninety miles an hour. Barney was
asked many things last night, which
carried him from the time he first
! learned what a spark plug was to un-
certain occasions when ne flew from his
Dragon over the track fence rail- All
of these interrogations were answered
with the best ofegrace. Barney will be
on tap throughout the week.
Jim Morley was as pleased as a boy
and steered everybody every place in
manner which showed he was glad
they were there
AS for the automobiles, it would be
difficult to describe at writing the
varied exhibits and their various
phases of beauty and strength.
John T. Bill was in evidence with a
very handsome display of Stoddard-
Daytons, which proved a gathering
place during the evening.
Five machines were on exhibition,
the most striking of which was a beau
tiful Limousine car of thirtyfive horse
power make. Hundreds of inquiries
Sibif Mfdf IN Was %agGIdeqt admlreS 3t es ao
end.
A stodaa kyTSh roadster also
caused much comment. Long of body,
finished in red set low, of q 113-inch
wheel base and possessing a 30-35
horse power, the car is handsome to a
degree. 1t is of the model X runabout
order.
A Victoria touring car looms up with
richness of finish that indicates the
heights of automobile art. Through
out the body runs a blue stripe. which
adds much to the general effect.
Harry Olive, Norman w. Church and
H. W. Heiks are in charge A supply
display of tires and motor cycles is
| connected with the Bill exhibit.
D. NJ. Lee of the Cadillac has a neat
little show, with four machines for
inspection. A model H. four-cylinder,
is exposed for exhibition of the en-
gines. The other cars are representa-
tive of the Cadillac's best.
d. NJ. Lee, H. H. Olcott, L. G. Pat
tee, T. N. Gibson, P. B. Jeffries and D.
F. Robertson preside.
White Garage
H. D. Ryus presents a colonial effect
at the White garage. Snowy columns
with festoons of white ribbons over
head inclose a display of three cars
The famous Christman machine OF
desert and mountain fame is king of
the booth and attracts much inquiry.
About Nevada mining camps the
Christman is a byword, where it's
strength was not undermined by tear
ing voyages over the hills and on the
sands.
H. D. Ryus, Charles Christman, o.
j. Gates, Andy Wetterauer, Bert Ding
ley, Captain Jargstoff and George
Adair will explain everything. Captain
Ryus' silver trophy cups won in Cali
| fornia are a feature of the exhibit.

| ing and smilaX stringers as a back
ground and overhanger, presents one of
the prettiest booths of the show. Mr..

ford.

horsepower touring car appear. The
| Crawford is open throughout for in
spection j. Bliss Dudley, general Cali
fornia agent of the Crawford, which is
handled by Mr.. Bennett, is associated
with the display.
A. j. Smith featured his handsome
exhibit with a four-cylinder forty
horse power car, stripped and in ac-
ton. Using the make and break of
the engine, the name Elmore is spelled
in front by means of incandescents.
A thirty horsepower, five-passenger
Elmore machine. proves an exhibition
attraction. Sold for $780, the car is
one of the largest manufactured for
such a consideration. d. B. Rose is
with Mr.. Smith.
j. w. Wilcox enters with the Max
well. A natty speedster looms brightly
: with its scarlet finish. Tom Davis,
George Haskins, Will Crippin, w. l..
) Graves and ]. e. Wilcox are connected
J with the booth.
Leon r, Shelter of the REQ has done
himself proud. Festoons of maidenhair
and white carnations overspread a
, spacious and howery allotment. The
REQ in all its attractveness is to be
seen through the handsome setting.
