De Rosa, the mechanic who was
killed in one of the automobiles prac-
ticing for the recent races at Savan-
nah, was buried from st. Johns cathe-
dral, Savannah.
The Savannah Automobile club had
charge, and the ceremony was strictly
an automobile funeral, the first of its
kind ever held in this country. In
stead of the regular hearse and car
riages, automobiles were used, a
stripped chassis serving as a hearse.
Thousands of people attended the SER
vices at the cathedral and followed
the remains. At the latter place the
crowd was so great that a battalion
of police was needed to keep order.

AKRON, O., Dec. 12-Only four
years of age but a clever athlete and
boxer, Master Edward Riley is the
pride of juvenile Akron and the joy Of
the muscular portion of the city.
Ever since he has been old enough
to toddle, Edward has been given the
benefit of physical training by his
father, and his sturdy legs and well
developed arms and body attest the
beneficial effect of the care given him.
When he dons the big gloves Ed
ward is happy. He handles his pad
ded fists skilfuly, and his ability to
step around and get away from blows
is little short of marvellous.

WATCH WAS MADE
BY HAND ONLY
Priceless Possession Now
Owned by Well Known
Chicago Traveller.
HAS BECOME AN HEIRLOOM.
HANDED DOWN FROM FATHER TO
SON FOR AGES PAST BE-
LIEvED TO BE ONLY ONE OF
KIND KNOWN.

Chicago, Sept. 12.-One of the most
remarkable heirlooms in the posses
sion of any Chicagoan is watch
made more than 300 years ago in
England and brought to this country
in 1884. 1t is now owned by Reuben
S. Price, a retired travelling man, liv-
ing at 756 Seventy-second street.
Although this is the sixth genera
ton of the family in America that has
owned the watch, it is still recording
faithfully Father Times hours and
minutes with the most commendable
accuracy.
The watch was made near the close
of the fifteenth century, and there is
an indisputable record of its owner
ship from the year 1884, when it was
in the possession of Mordecai Price,
who was among the very earliest set
tiers in Anne Arundel County, Mary
land. The watch was handed down
from father to son from Mordecai the
first to his son, Mordecai and his sons
son, Mordecai, the latter bequeathing
it to his son Elijah, who in turn in
trusted it into the hands of his son,
John K, the father of the present pos
SCISSOR of the relic.
The various owners and the dates of
their acquisition of the watch are en-
graved upon the back as follows:
Il was brought to st. Marys, Md, in
1884 by Mordecai Price.
1862 his son, Mordecai Price, Jr.
"1723 his son, Mordecai Price, Jr.
"1781 his son, Elijah Price.
1880 his son, John K. Price.
1852 his son, Reuben S. Price"
Continuing the custom from the first
Mordecai down through six genera
lions, Reuben S. Price will some time
give the valuable curio to his own and
only son. Reuben S. Price, Jr. Mr..
Price naturally prizes it above price,
having recently refused an offer of
81 900 for it.
The watch, in the opinion of a we'll
known Chicago matchmaker, was
made entirely by hand, probably the
only one in existence made without the
aid Of machinery. Even the tiny
chain, which age does not seem to
have worn. was put together by the pa
tient fingers Of its maker over three
centuries ago.

National Conservation Com
mission Will Undertake
The Task at Once.
WATER POWER QUESTION.
WATER, WOOD AND OTHER NAT
URAL RESOURCES NOW BEING
WASTED MAY BE CONSERVED
AS THE RESULT.

Washington, Sept. 12.-The national
conservation commission has made
public the first of its schedules on
which the inventory of the country's
Only a few Of the schedules have, as
yet been given out, but between the
lines of these 1t is plainly evident the
national conservation commission in
tends to hunt down waste in all its
varied forms and to devise some means
to prevent 1t. This is apparent In the
general schedules as to each of the
tiers, forests, lands and minerals.
For instance, the schedule relating
to lands inquiries into waste of soil by
erosion, which is the washing away of
the land. The schedule also suggests
waste through bad agricultural meth
DDS" The lands schedule likewise
goes into waste in the carrying Ca
pacity OF the public range in the west.
The section of waters is inquiring into
how much land capable of irrigation
is wasted by not being irrigated. More
important still is it's suggestive in
quiries tending to show that we are
wasting our waterways to an alarm
ing extent by not using them as we
should. Perhaps the greatest form OF
waste brought out in the entire sche-
dule is that relating to water power.
Two of the official inquiries are as fol-
lows:
Are existing developed water pow
ers put to their full use?"
ITO what extent can coal be saved
by the substitution of water power"
Under the head of flood waters, the
commission inquiries, ITO what extent
are flood waters wasted?"
The mineral section of the commits
sion is seeking to find out the nature
and extent of waste in mining, extrac-
ton and use of mineral products" and
methods of preventing or lessening
this waste"
That forest conservation must large
manufacture seems to be the convic-
ton of the conservation commission.
The commission is busy conducting a
census by correspondence to find the
common wastes in wood using indus
tries Queries were sent to eight hun
bred manufacturers of cooperage stock
for the purpose of getting a line on
the waste of wood in the making of
barrels and casks.
Similar wastes occur in turning the
logs into headings, and in the manu-
facture OF barrel hoops. The forest
section is trying to find just how i'm
portant such wastes are, with the OBJ
ject of suggesting. II possible, way
of cutting down the drains upon the
forests which means no gain to any
one, but loss to all. The returns from
the inquiries will form part of the re-
port of the conservation commission,
when the work of taking the prelimin-
airy inventory of our natural resources
is completed.
The national conservation commits
sion is to take up reports of the var
ious government bureaus which are
now at work on this inventory for
general discussion at it's meeting in
this city, Tuesday, December /. One
week later, Tuesday, December 8. the
commissioners will discuss the same
subject with the governors of the
states and territories. or their repre-
sentatives.
