ITALIAN Wins AUTO RACE
NAVARRO CAPTURES GRAND PRlx
OVER FRENCH COURSE.
Frenchman Is Second While American
Fails to Show-Nobody Seri-
ously Injured.

Paris, July 3.--Felice Navarro, Ital
fan, Tuesday drove a Fiat Italian
made automobile over the 477-mile
Grand Prix course in 6:46:33 and
won the mos famous automobile
event of the world from 81 rivals,
Francois szisz, a Frenchman, driving
Renault (French) car, was second,
his time being recorded as 6::53:1O.
Walter Christie, the American, who
drove the 135-horse power machine
bearing his own name, was one of the
unfortunates who found the triangular
rs kilometer 998 meter course be-
tween Dieppe, Eu and Londinieres too
strenuous for. their cars. No con-
testant, was seriously injured.
The pace was killing from the start,
leaving a score of cars hopelessly
beaten before the second round was
ended. The race was full of surprises.
Nazzaro was not prominent early in
the contest. Lancia took the first
three laps, but when he broke down
at the third and surrendered the lead
to Duray, the latter, as he reeled off
lap after lap under 40 minutes, looked
an easy winner, but on entering the
fourth round broken bearing put his
car out of action and he was forced
to retire amid the plaudits of the
crowds. In the meantime Nazzaro,
riding like demon but cool and
steady, overhauled Lancia, and when
Duray dropped out he continued on,
unheaded, to the finish. szisz came
up from the rear and made gallant
effort during the last two laps to over
take the flying leader. Lancia's
petrol gave out in the final round,
permitting Baras to finish third
Nazzaro's brilliant victory was &C
knowledged by all, but the heart had
been taken out of the crowd by
Duray's accident, and the French
thousands received the news coldly.

REFUSES FORTUNE.
New York Waitress Passes Up SIS. 1000
Legacy.

NEW YORK, Dec. 31-A farm in
Ireland and a legacy of SIS 200 fails to
lure Miss Nan Hickey from the lunch
room in the Grand Central station.
Over in Ireland lived Joseph Calvin.
Miss Hickeys uncle. In the region of
West Meath he had nice farm. He
was certain that his favorite niece
would much rather settle down on a
farm of her own than live always in
a strange land. When he died he made
will in which he remembered the
Hickey family. but left the farm of
many acres to Nan.
This news was conveyed to Nan in
a letter from her father, which she re-
ceived recently. But Nan had her own
ideas about it. The letter besOught her
to come to Ireland at once.
But why does a girl want to bury
herself on farm when she can have
a nice time in America?
That is what Nan asked a represen-
tative of the press association when
she announced her Intention of giving
her farm to her brothers in Ireland.
