The latest arrival of the newest 1907
models were received yesterday by the
Pioneer Automobile Company. The
demonstrating Wintons reached the
city late in the afternoon. The model

being a forty horsepower vehicle. with
the capacity of travelling sixty miles an
hour. 1t has been designed to carry
seven passengers, having Pullman seats
in the tonneau. In the matter of speed
gears It has four ahead and one re-
verse. In appearance it is one of the
most striking cars that has arrived
this season. 1t must appeal to every
one in search of something that looks
little above the average. The makers
claim for IL more than they have ever
claimed for any of their previous cars.
The other is the type a. 1t is a
smaller car. carrying only five pas

more refined than any Of the previous
Wintons. The car is lighter and will
be q great favorite with the women
drivers.
Another of the new cars to arrive
yesterday was the 1907 Frayer-Miller
runabout. 1t is one of the raciest cars
seen for some time. The seats are some
what lower than in the 1905 model
while the steering shaft is set at a
sharper angle than has heretofore been
seen. on the, coast. The seats are set
farther back. giving more room for
driving In other respects the car re-
sembIes the 1906 model in appearance
and coloring.
1t is surprising with what enthusiasm
the proposition of the show scheme has
been received. 1t was the one topic of
conversation up and down automobile
row. The dealers are already figuring
out schemes for decorations and special
stunts that will be an attraction to the
public. There is no question but that
the show will be surprise to those
who have not had the pleasure of at
tending an automobile show. There
are so many things that are to be seen
that II would be impossible TO tell of
them all The dealers have made up
their minds not to spare any money in
giving the first exhibition.
1t has been proposed to hold an auto
mobile parade the first night the show
opens in the city. Every owner will be
invited to take part. This will be
started early in the evening and will
end at the place where the show will
be held. It is also proposed to hold
dinner the last night of the show.

meet Baldwin was anxious to have
the track management arrange a
match race between Cruzados and Shot
Gun. but as the recent efforts of
Handicapper Egbert to bring the pair
together in a three-cornered speciai
with Fireball fell through after the
match had been announced, that ofhcial
was chary OF again assuming the re-
sponsibility. So 1T was arranged that
a race should be provided for the COM
ing week in which Cruzados and Shot
Gun can meet at FIVE and half fur
longs IL their trainers SO elect. The
race will be open for others to enter
as well. Baldwin proposed 10 Walter
B. Jennings, owner of Shot Gun. that
a ser.es Of races be arranged between
the pair. He stated his willingness 10
send Cruzados five and a half fur
longs with Shot Gun, with the under
standing that II Cruzados should be
beaten another race is to be run be-
tween the two al five furlongs, which
distance Cruzados is supposed to pre-
fer, while Shot Gun shines at six fur
longs Baldwin agreed II Cruzados
should defeat Shot Gun at five and a
half furlongs TO give Jennings a return
match at six furlOngs. Jennings ex-
pressed his willingness TO have Shot
Gun meet cruzados under the condi-
tions outlined and the arrangement
will probably be carried into effect.
Should each horse win one of the pro-
posed matches a deciding race will
probably be given to definitely settle
the question of superiority.

Forty Hurt in Indiana Accident Due
to Explosion of Powder.
Nearly forty lives were lost in Big
-Four wreck at Sanford, Ind, Satur-
day night
The cause of the disaster has not
been fully explained, as several theo-
ries are advanced. The result was
terrible. The shock was felt for thirty
miles, many believing it an earthquake.
The three coaches of the passenger
train we're filled. The entire train, in
GLIDING the locomotive, was blown from
the track. The coaches were demolish-
ed. the engine was hurled fifty feet and
the passengers either blown to pieces,
consumed by fire or rescued in a more
or less injured condition. At least thir-
ty-five injured, some fatally, are at the
hospitals in Terre Haute and Paris,
ILL., Several are also being cared for
at Sanford.
According to trainmen of the freight,
the explosion of the powder was caused
by the concussion made by the passing
down for the station at Sanford. An
other theory is that gas escaping from
an oil pipe line near by entered the car
containing the powder and a spark
from the passing engine ignited the
gas.
More than two score of lives were
sacrificed and three scores of persons
received serious injuries in railroad
wrecks in the United States the same
day. Weather conditions, combined
with the frailties of employees and de
fects in construction of roadbed and
machinery, caused a dozen different
wrecks in widely separated parts Of the
country, half of which resulted in fatal
tiles.
Fire, incident to the use of steam en-
gines in connection with wooden cars,
added to the horrors of wreck caused
by fog hiding stop signal on the Big
-Four road at Fowler, Ind, in which viii
layers who rushed to the rescue were
driven away by the flames, and stood
helplessly by while the victims Of the
disaster were slowly roasted to death.
Scarcely less full of horror was a
wreck on the same railroad near Terre
Haute, Ind, caused by car of powder
on a siding exploding and blowing to
pieces a passenger train on the main
track. Passengers and members of the
train crew there met death or injury
without warning.
At Desoto, Kan, a defective engine
boiler blew up, hurting the fireman and
engineer to death, and in Minnesota a
fast train was ditched because of de-
fects in the track.
Confusion of orders or needless Of
signals caused disastrous collisions at
Minonk. ILL.,. Denmark, S. c.; Meridian,
Miss, and Troupe Texas, while wash
out was responsible for a wreck in
Michigan, and one near Peoria.

were dying for lack of medicines and
attention which the island authorities
did not have, and seemingly were max

Governor Swettenham, from the first,
resented the presence of the American

revolted when he saw the blue jackets

Admiral Davis was shocked at the

Is better to place all the fruit in layer,
making sure that it is packed solidly.
Place piece Of heavy paper on top Of
the fruit press carefully, and nail the
head on. If the fruit is properly packed
it should require but little pressing to

prevents the fruit from moving and be-
