All Show Evidence Of Hard Usage.

Bedford Springs, Pa, July 22.-An
inspection of all the cars contestng
in the tour for the Glidden and Hover
trophies was held here Sunday. Not
a single car passed in review that did
not show the earmarks of having gone
through a terrible ordeal. Broken
springs, bent axles, torn mud guards,

parts we're in evidence. That 10 cars
are still in the tour with perfect
scores Ia considered remarkable after
the fierce run through the Blue Ridge

A SOLDIERS DREAM.

This; littie Gem of Fiction Comes to
Us From Franco.
A French soldier who had been away
from home for several years returned
unexpectedly to his native town. The
day of his arrival being: Sunday, he
went to the village church, . believing
his wife would be there, and he th6s
could see her the sooner. Taxing d
seat near the door, he waited until the
service was over. = :
While waiting, being very much IA
ugued after long journey, he fell
asleep, his head resting on the back Of
the pew. While sleeping he dreamed
-of~being seized as a spy and after a
short trial was condemned and led out
for execution, The guillotine had been
erected, the army stood ranged about,
and all the preparations were made rs
impress1vely as possible. The CON
dcmned man was placed in position.
and the last act in the drama was at
hand.
Just at that moment his wife was
passing down the aisle Of the church
on her way out She recognized her
husband and in order to awaken him
tapped his neck playfully with her fan
as his head was thrown back on the
seat. The contact Of the fan he In his
dream supposed to be the knife Of the
gulllotine. The shock was so great it
killed him instantly.
