SAN JOSE, April 3-The best days
run that the Italian car has made since
it entered California was finished when
it rolled down First street of San Jose

At 1910 o'clock yesterday morning the
lookout from the pilot car Tourist,
which had worked it's way south as
far as Bradley, shouted for all hands on
deck, as the rhythmic sound of the ex-
naust was heard. Five minutes later
the car hove in sight and was brought
to standstill by the shouts of those
who had been waiting hours to re-
ceive it.
Those who had gone down on the
pilot car and those who were aboard
the car which represents L'Italia Daily

their clothes OLE, expecting that if the
racer went on they would take up the
journey to the north. Those VINO

BOY ATTACKED BY EAGLE.
Saved from Serious Injury by Brother
Who Shoots Bird.

Elgin, Ill.-To save his brother.
Jacob Baker, from serious injury, Ed
ward Baker, living on farm near
Hampshire, was forced to shoot a
large American eagle the other morn
ing. The bird was one Of the largest
ever seen in that vicinity, measuring
more than six feet from tip to tip Of
its wings, and is thought to have been
driven down Wisconsin by the forest
fires.
The Baker boys were out early to
inspect some traps they had set on
the edge of the farm. Jacob was
bending over one of the traps when
the bird descended upon him like a
whirlwind. striking furiously with its
wings, and scratching and clawfng
with beak and claws.
Dazed by the suddenness and fe-
rocity of the attack, Jacob was unable
to resist, and would probably have
been seriously injured but for the
GOODNESS of his brother. who waited
until the bird rose for another descent
on its victim, and then shot 1t through
the head.
