Severe Test for Machine
All this was hard on the passengers.

tough on the car. Not OF &c on the en-

followed Damascus with apparent ease.
On the long and arduOus hills from
CIarksviIIe to Ashton it went fast
enough TO jar the party on humping
over each succeeding water break. And
when a sudden stop had to be made to
prevent a collision with mammoth hay
wagon which a native had carefully left
in the geometricsI center of the road
the engine continued to run as steadily
and as easily as of yOre.
Altogether. one run over this route is
a severe test for any light machine

''Runs Like Clockwork."

At the half-hour stop at New Market,
the machine, standing in front of the
leading and sole hosiery, attracted the
natives in great force. One, a clock
maker by profession, offered to show
how the engine might be stopped while
the drivers were at dinner. This" he
claimed, will save wear and tear on
the machinery. An auto runs very much

run by covering the us miles Of the
Times Sealed Bonnet Contest route and
lost its way for twelve more. max
ing a total OF $50 miles for the first

left the Times office for the second
round trip TO Frederick. Ellicott City.

to-day was the odometer. The atrocious
roads and recurrent bumps. which
failed to have any effect on the mech
anism of the machine. put the odome-
ter connections out Of business after
eighty-sevcn miles had been registered.
Although the register must have gone
out OF commission before arriving at Eli
