ITALIAN CAR WINS Briarcliff Race Run in Record Time, With Only Minor
 Accidents.
STRANG, IN ISoTTA, VICTOR
Average Speed of dS.0 Miles Per Hour --I'int Second and Americans
 Third and Fourth.

Briarcliff, April 24.--Louis Strang, won the 256 mile road race here to- day in hours IA minutes 13 1-4 sec onds, an average speed of 4s.9 miles an hour. Cedrino, in another Italian car. Fiat was second in hours Fl minutes 2-5 seconds, Guy Vaughan in his Stearns car was third In b.2S: 20 2-6. and Herbert Lyttle In an Ap- person was fourth in 5:29:15 2-5. Paul 1 SartoH in the Bianchi was fifth in 5 hours 53 minutes 45 3-5 seconds, and the race was then called off. There were few accidents to mar the race, and beyond occasional bruises to the drivers of several cars which broke down, none of the contestants was hurt, and no spectators were injured in any way.
 | Twenty-two stock automobiles of the American and foreign types start ed at dawn in the race for supremacy over one of the most hazardous cours- es ever chosen for q modern speed l IbllltGts 1T Ol Iuct q LULU pNti thti - two miles the course winds through picturesque country in northern Vest chester county. Almost every turn of the course is a danger spot, and there had been many predictions of serious accidents before the race was run. The danger of the course and the possibil- ity of serious mishaps had added tre- mendcusly to the interest usual in con- tests of this kind, and long before the hour scheduled for the start the course was lined with automobiles fill- ed with spectators. As early as 5 o'clock this morning 1t was estimated that no less than 11,000 automobiles were parked along the course. Thous- ands ot persons crowded the vantage points, and when the first racer was sent away he entered course lined with humanity on either side from end to end.
 Tho start had been scheduled for 4:25 o'clock, but 1t was forty minutes later before preparations for the be- ginning of the race had been com pleted. At exactly 5:07 the starters pistol was heard, and car No. 1, with Sartori at the wheel. shot across the lne and started away on the long, treacherous journey. The other cars followed at intervals of one minute without the slightest untoward incl dent to mar the start. The veteran Barney Odfeld, who braved the fate associated with the number 13 by driving car bearing those figures was given a rousing cheer when he stood at the starting line awaiting the signal.
 It became apparent within a very few minutes after the start that, des- bite predictions to the contrary, tre- mendously high speed was to be made over at least some portions of the course. Forty-two minutes had been reported as the best time over the thirty-two mile course in the trials and many believed that no better time than this could be expected during the race. At 5:24 o'clock, seventeen min utes after the first car had left the starting point however, word came back from Armonk that four cars already had passed that place, seven- teen miles away.

BOSTON WOMEN WIN.
Carry or Intcr-City Doubles Honors
 nj New York.

New York, April 24.--Bostons lawn tennis pair, Miss Eleanor Sears and Miss Marion Fenno, carried off the honors to-day in the final of the inter- city doubles on the courts of the St. Nicholas rink. It was the steadiness of Miss Fenno which won the compe- tition. The opposing pair, Miss Phyl- lis Green and Miss Dorothy Green, of Philadelphia, kept things even in the first set up to flve-all, and In the tenth game won after the Boston players had the lead at 40-love. The points touched deuce four times before they won this game. Then Miss Fenno came to the net and captured the set at 7-5. The second set was scored at 6-4
 The final of the intercity singles was scored with surprising ease by Mrs Barger- Wallach Newport. Her driving for placement more than over came all of the skill which Miss Edna Wildey, Me;T york, could bring against her. There were some spirited rallies in this match, but the end of each was the same, Miss Wildey being driven far to one side of her court only to be passed on the other with a swift shot The score was 6-3, 6-1.

pENN's RELAY CARNIVAL.
Great Field of Entries al Philadelphia
 Meet.

Philadelphia, April 24.--One of the greatest bands of track and field ath- letes ever assembled in this country will be seen on Franklin field to-mor- row at the annual relay carnival of the University of Pennsylvania. Nearly every college in the east and many of those in the west will be represented in the relay races or spe- cial events All told about i 1,500 ath- letes will take part. The one and two mile events for the inter colle- Eiate championships of America will be the features in the relays. Penn sylyania and Chicago universities are expected to he the chief com petitors in the mile race and with favorable conditions a new inter col logiato record is looked for. Penn sylvana quartet for the event Is made up of Taylor, Cartmell, l., Whitman and Haydock, and is ono of the best the university has ever had, while Chicago has the same team which won the event year ago.
 The University of Michigan will oc- cupy a unique position with refer enee to the two milo race The in- vincibility of Michigan, which has won the four mile relay five years in succession, frightened out other teams except Pennsylvania but even Pennsylvania could not get up team capable of meeting the Westerners and decided to forfeit, asking Michi- gan to compete in the two mile event instead As the Michigan runners are very versatile, 1t is feared they will win the two mile race in which event they would carry eight gold watches back to Ann Arbor as sou venirs. Princeton has d very fast team which is expected to run close to the record and Michigan may suf- fer a setback
 In tho individual championship events Cartmell of Pennsylvania will contend in the 100-yard dash with Gamble of Princeton, Cook of Cor nell and other champions, In the other special events Cook of Cornell and Bray of Yale are looked upon to do something in the pole vault, Cook of Cornell and Mt. Pleasant of the Carlisle Indians, in the broad jump; Motlitt of Pennsylvania and Porter, the former Cornell champion, in the high jump; Horr of Syracuse and CponeS of Yale in the hammer thorw and Shaw of Dartmouth and Robbins of Yale in the hurdles,

POET OF THE RING.

Here we have Bunny Ford, Who knows the boxing game, Kid Kilt can fight some, But Bunny can beat him all the
 same. Jeff Doherty, the pride of this city, Who never was knocked out, Would take anybody at his weight, And put them down with q square
 clout. He took on Johnny Darling, And of course you know our Jeff, Gave him few punches in the face, And q swift hook with his lett. Ozzy Winters, the new boxer, May he able to go some, But some of our old fighters, Will make him feel like Tom Thumb And this same Ozzy Winters, We'll, perhaps he knows how to
 fight, But Bunny Ford thinks He can floor him day or night.

New Haven Loses to Brockton by

New Haven closed its season of out of-town exhibition games yesterday with a defeat at the hands of the Brockton New England leaguers by a score of 8 to 5. New Haven played a fair game in the field and batted req sonably well, but, as has been the case right through the trip, the New Ha- ven pitchers were batted heavily right through the game, causing the defeat. The team has gained considerable, however, as the result of the weeks playing together.

TELLURIDE IS YOUNGEST CAMP

This camp is the latest addition to
the state. 1t lies about eight miles east
of Beatty on the east side of Meikle-
john mountain. Six sets of leasers are
at work extracting rich ore from mother
earth.
The Burner-Swecney-M Mark lease has
a hole down about twenty feet. 1t has
three feet of ore that will run better
than $40. Yesterday the leasers opened
a ave from which the wind is rushing
so strong that they have no trouble
with the powder smoke. They can en-
ter the shaft as soon as the shots are
fred. As a rule in lime formation a
cave always has rich ore, and they
think that this will not prove to be an
exception.
On the Groshong-C Cooper Burrel lease
the leasers are putting on the dump
about a half a ton of ore a day that
will run from $54 to slS6. Messrs
Groshong and Cooper will move their
families to this place some time during
this week.

ground has about six feet of ore that
will assay about 500. He has run a tun-
mel into the ledge, and is now preparing
to sink a shaft Mr.. Wiggers' ground
looks very promising, and without a
doubt will open a big mine. His wife
has the honor of being the first lady
resident of Telluride.
W. II. Bend, who has two claims adj
joining Mr.. Pritchard, is working on n
six-foot vein that win average about
$40.
On the Johnson indsor-Stanla lease
there is $50 ore, and for the amount of
work done the showing is excellent.
The original lease on the Diamond
Queen mine is getting out six mining
ears of ore a day. The leasers think
that they will be able to double their
capacity during this next month. Their
last shipment averaged over $217.
The town 81 F1uorine, which adjoins
the Diamond Queen mine, is growing
very rapidly. On the plat that has just
been finished thirty lots are marked
"sold." Fluorine has some excellent
business opper tunities open, and from
present appearances it will be a lively
camp this simmer. John Doser will
have the management Of the TOWNSHIP.

Among its early projects, the Therien

having already been decided TO start 1
shaft near the main street of Seven
Troughs on a vein which has been ex-
posed by an excavation designed to re
ceive the new Seven Troughs Hotel

surface in the quantity and richness ,of
ore exposed, the shaft will Immediately
be sunk to the one thousand foot level
with all possible speed. Such was the
announcement made Monday by Charles
H. Ellithorpe, general superintendent of
the Friedman properties.

Each round of shots s~utstantiates the
claim originally made by scores of min
ing men that the conditions revealed on
the Kas ',r-Andregg Carey lease on the
Desert View Extension claim of the
Seven Troughs Golden Treasure Mining
company, within half a mile and in
sight of the town of Vernon, is prob
ably the greatest surface showing in
the state of Nevada. The lease at
tracted great attention several weeks
ago when it became known that the
leasers had opened up a two and one-
half foot quartz ledge that gave aver
z ASSAYS across its entire width of
$50 per ton and that the vein contained
a six-ineh streak that returned values
from $1,000 to $4,000 per ton.
