German and Second French Cars Be-
ing OverhauIed in Chicago = De
Dion Still in Cedar Rapids.

Chicago March 5.-When the Ger
man Protos car containing Lieutenant
Hans Koeppen Of the Kaiser's army,
Hans Knape and Ernest Mas pulled
up in front of the Chicago Automobile
club house on Plymouth place at $50
last evening, all of the five machines
in the race from New York to Paris
had reported in this city.
The Protos, which has the appear
ance of a prairie schooner with a gypsy
top and equipped with berths and a
new tangled heating apparatus, with
nearly all of the comforts of a five
room fiat, arrived just a week after
the American car, five days after the
De Dion and Zust, and twenty seven
hours after the second French car, the
Motobloc What would seem to be
hopeless lead on the part of the Thonn-
as Flyer, the De Dion, and the Zust
is not regarded seriously by the Ger
mans. who are confident that they will
oyertake their competitors and arrive
in Paris first.
The cablegram received yesterday
from the Paris committee caused a
change of plans on the part of the
Freedmen in charge of the Motobloc.
All preparations had been made to ex-
press the car to Seattle to catch the
steamer. which leayes for Alaska on
March 10. The car was overhauled,
altho it was found that the engine had
suffered no i'll effects. The front axle
was badly bent. The Motobloc will
now remain over in Chicago until Sat
urday and will leave at the same time
as the Protos.
The first French car, De Dion, is still
in Cedar Rapids, where it is undergo
ing complete overhauling.

Is not to be doubted for = moment that
much of the Juvenile crime and miscon-
duct may be traced directly to such
places Of resort and entertainment.
It may be difficult to frame a statute
which will reach these evils, but 1t GER
tainly should not be impossible to devise
a working law. 1t should either grant
the District Commissioners the right to
prescribe the conditions UPON which the
atrical licenses shall be issued. forbid
ding the admission Of children under six

under heavy penalties; or it should pro-
hibit absolutely the attendance of chill
dren at theaters unless accompanied by
adults. The latter regulation might work
unjust injury upon the theatrical estab-
lishments which may be attended with en-
tire propriety by children even without
being thus accompanied. But whatever
the method, the need remains OF a rule
which will put a stop absolutely to the
demorallzing. crime-breeding attendance
of youngsters at performances which only
serve to create or arouse unwholesome'
immoral and vicious tendencies and to
leaL them into lines of evil living.

Hartman.

E. H. Hartman as q delegate to Chi
cago would attract attention-be. as it
were. an interesting exhibit-but he might
be expensive to the candidate he favored,
and later to the republican party. This
is not a year for delegates of the Harri-
man variety. The railroad question is
still prominent in politics, and the repub-
licans at Chicago will be expected to deal
with it, not in the interests Of men like
Mr.. Hartman, but in a way Of which they
totally disapprove. Better leave Mr.. Har-
riman at home this time. He has a good
deal to occupy him there, and the republic
can party a good deal to concern itself
with at the convention wholly foreign to
his tastes and desires. The less Of Har-
rimanism in public affairs just now the
better for the public.
