oueerest Men on Earth.

EarthS oldest and Oldest race OF
men has been brought prominently in
to notice again thru the widespread
interest aroused by sending a
batch Of Indian political agi-
tators to the penal settle-
ment on the Andaman Islands. that
beautiful coral-bosnd archipelago in
the Bay of Bengal. This remnant Of
the NEST primitive species in existence
will soon be nothing but an ethnologt-
cal memory, writes a Calcutta corres-
pondeni In the New York World, Con-

been followed, as usual, with a train
of infectious diseases which are stead

Owing to the ancient course Of trade
the Andamanese have been known
about from the earliest times. Ptol-

In the ordinary attachments of hui

the Andamanese are amazingly defic-
lent. During allthe ages of their inter-
course by word Of mouth they have not
DEVELOPED a medium worthy of the
name of language. Before the arrival of
the British the tribes, except actual
neighbars had no intercourse. Even
clans of the same tribes found diff

SUPERVISORS ARE WORRIED BY
MANY ERRORS
Sins of Omission and Commission
Charged Against Scores Of Elec-
ton Officials, Who Have
Been Subpoenaed

Election officials crowded and TUNED
and explained all yesterday to the
Los Angeles county board of super
visors, trying to make clear the ng-
ures on the primary.
Such a mix-up and complication on
figures, names, party classificatlons,
ticket columns and other technical
details has never been experienced In
the history of the court house.
Hundreds of subpoenas have been
issued and each luclzless judge or clerk
is required to sign a statement or
make clear why this and that error OF
commission or omission happened.
A delegation of legal advisors is on
hand to see that the tally sheets I'LL
all the requirements of the new pri-
mary law.
The law requires that the returns
be canvassed in three days, but with
twenty clerks working overtime this
hardly seems possible.
Moreover, on Saturday the Repub-
licans Of the Seventh congressional
district will hold their convention at
Long Beach and they will need the
revised returns.
Election officials worked late last
night trying to straighten out the
from which, probably, num-
Der of contests will grow.

Special 10 The Herald
FRESNO, Cal, Aug. ia reception
by the citizens of Hanford was the
feature of a pleasant days run by the
participants in the Tourists journey
toward San Francisco. The motorists
participating in the tour were met two
miles from the city by a reception COM
mittee headed by Mayor H. A. Beck
house. After a rousing welcome in the
city luncheon was served under the
trees in the public square and formal
welcome extended by the mayor. The
tour is proving an unqualified success.
Twenty-eight cars came in Fresno to-
night and j. S. Conwell says he will
take forty Tourist cars into San Fran

thirty cars will leave here in the morn
ing. Miss Larooka Conwen, the pretty
16-year-old daughter of J. S. Conwell,
drove her fathers 40-horsepower car
from Bakersfield to Fresno, handling
the machine like a veteran. The farm
ers showed interest all along the line,
one old man near Hanford firing SHOT
gun salute as each car passed.
The run today was over fiat coun-
try with some good road and some
bad. For the first fifteen miles out
of Bakersfield better road could not
be asked for, but as the cars contln-
ued northward the highway became
cut off and there were several stretches
which were anything but enjoyable :
The luncheon stop was Hanford ana
from there 1t was an easy thirty-hve
mile trip into Fresno.
ALI the motorists are having pleas
ant tour and express themselves as
highly pleased with the run as far as
it has progressed.
r. M. Bowser of San Diego has been
attracting considerable attention with
his immense umbrella fastened over
the seat of his runabout. w. d.
Newerf also has a nicely equipped car
to protect himself and wife from the
heat.
A. A. Whitney, the biggest man in
the tour, has been surprising the ma
tives with his speed stunts. He can
turn around-that is, turn his car
around--faster and shoot down busi-
ness street with more speed than any
contestant in the tour.
The work of c. e. Smith and Walls
ter Sahland in the pilot car has been
excellent. Small flags and confetti
have been used to mark the course and
the red flags used to give warning of
bad chuckholes have been a big aid.
Mrs. c. w. Burt, who is making the
trip with her husband. the superin-
tendent of the factory, has been doing
some nice driving. She has piloted
her car most of the way.
Great credit is due Erb and Drury,
owners of the Bakersfield Auto Sup
ply company, for the way in which
they repaired the bad TETON pass road.
