AGAINST GRATING AUTOMOBILES
Want Steamship Companies to Garry
Them liberated

New York. Jan. 25.-Led by the Automo-
bile Club of America, automobiles both
in this country and abroad have begun a
concerted campaign to get the steamship
componieS to abolish the Grating rule.
which requires all automobiles to be
Grated while crossing the Atlantic. They
deem it unnecessary and too expensive.
Colgate Hoyt, president Of the Automobile
club, demonstrated the usefulness of the
rule. He said
ITO rate an automobile, take it to
Europe, recrate and bring it back forces
the travelling automobilist to spend use
lessly $3.50. If the rule requiring this ex-
pensive Grating were abolished and own
ers permitted to ship their cars uncrated
this money and much Inconvenience would
be saved 1 am heartily in favor of a
proposition which would make foreign
touring far less expensive. In the first
place, Grating car does not give greater
safety. My own machine, carefully Grated
was damaged on a trip from Havre to
New York. On the other hand, in moving
about Europe, where local steamship lines
do not require Grating, 1 have sent my
machine without damage from Paris to
Dublin. This involved railroading from
Paris to Boulogne, a passage across to
Dover. reshipment from Dover to the
other coast and a sea trip across the Irish
sea In all these changes from train to
boat, and from boat to train. my machine
was not damaged. 1t was put in crate
however. for the homeward voyage and
was injured"

FLYNN TO FIGHT SULLIVAN.
Light Heavyweights Are Rematched
for the Los Angeles Ring.

AOA tAA1 AfOS @1HSClCS
Los Angeles, Cal, Jan. 25.-Jack
c'Twin'D Sullivan and Fighting Jim"
Flynn have been matched by Manager
McCarey. The battle is scheduled to
take place February II. They fought
here January and the battle proved
the sensation of the local arena.
Never in the history of the istic game
in this city has such. a fight been wit
messed. 1t was battle royal from the
first tap of the gong till the end of the
twentieth round when Flynn was
awarded the decision. 1t is safe to say
when the men meet again many will
be turned away who will be unable to
gain admission to the pavilion.
The sports in Los Angeles are anx-
1ous to see Cyclone Thompson, the
sycamore lad, in action here again.
Since Thompson has cleaned up all the
topnotchers he has met and in view of
the fact that Jimmy Britt refused to
meet him the enthusiasts are interest
ed to such a degree that Manager Nc
Carey is doing his utmost to find a
suitable opponent for Thompson for an
early date.

 "As it was in fact the same spoon which had borrowed I was quite able to reassure him that it actually was the same pattern shriveling beneath the comprehending, glassy stare of Mrs Simpson, who doesn't have to borrow spoons.
 Well, you might have given me tip beforehand" growled Hamvery, de- fensively.
 "Oh, yes," agreed his wife, sweetly. And had you exclaim, Is this the spoon you said you borrowed from your mother If only you would not nut on such a beaming, angelically innocent expression when you are about to perpetrate these conversa- tional bombs, dearest! That makes me so utterly helpless! It would be equal to sticking pins into a guileless, prattling babe even to glare at you on those occasions!
 When the Simpsons departed, con- cluded Mrs. Hamvery, Billy, like genial host, was assiduous in helping Mrs. Simpson with her wraps. Her coat hung next to mine. Both were gray, but there the resemblance ceased, for my suit cost $40 and she never paid a cent less than $125 for hers. Any woman could have detect ed the difference in them a block away, but Billy hesitated over the coat he picked up.
 ''Is this your coat or Mrs. Simp- sons, Adele?' he asked, innocently.
 Tt was the finishing touch, for Mrs. Simpson brides herself on her clothes being entirely original and unlike any one else's. I know she has hated me ever since!"

 WAY

"Yes,' said Mrs. Hamvery, gazing fondly across the room at her hus- band, who beamed blandly, not know ing what was about to befall him at her hands. Yes, last Tuesday was certainly Billy's busy day for saying and doing the wrong thing!
 Honest, now, Billy" she went on before he could open his mouth to protest, T wish some time you'd con- fde in me just how many weeks you devoted to thinking up all those little gems of thought. I know they sound ed eXtemporaneous to our guests, but I knew you had been burning midnight gas or taking time which you should have devoted to stocks and bonds to accumulate them.
 We had the Simpsons to dinner" she explained to the others, who en- joyed watching Hamvery writhe. Now, I'm not exactly afraid of the Simpsons, but if things are going to go wrong I'd lots prefer that they'd do so when I have guests who are more easy-going.
 "Of course, I had all my best things out for the table. I always intend to use good things every day for my own family, but a few of my cherished possessions I am trying to make last as long os possible. Billy spied the napkins first Now, the monograms on those new napkins are worth their weight in gold, but I opened mine with the nOnchalant air of one who was bored by the very sight of exquisite embroidery and had even better ones, inlaid with diamonds, perhaps, put away Not so, Billy!'
 'Whe-e-e!' he murmured. survey ing his napkin admiringly. Got those initials done at last, didn't you, Adele They look fine and certainly are an Improvement. You've no idea how she has slaved over those, Mrs. Simp- son!'
 At this juncture I broke in with a sprightly remark about the weather which I elaborated till Billy had fin ished his soup. When he started tC carve the roast he made one or two spasmodic jabs with the knife an6 then sighed patiently

 So I had to sit and smile and see the maid obediently carry away my beautiful $2O carving set and bring on the war-beaten old cheap one that the cook made a mistake and boiled once and baked another time, the processes not especially enhancing it's beauty"
 But the knife cuts!" hastily inter- posed Hamvery for the benefit of the company.
 'T didn't see that there was very much else he could say that would be embarrassing" went on Mrs. Ham, very. But even I did not realize Billv's ability in that direction.
