through following level meadows. And
now. above the roaring undertone OF
the cars, from far ahead fioated back
the treble bell notes of the locomotive.
There came gritting vibration OF
brakes. Slowly, more slowly, the cars
rlided to a creaking standstil beside
sun scorched platform gay with the
bright liutter of sunshades and sum
mer gowns.
-Shotoverl Shotover!,' rang the far
cry along the cars, and an absent
minded young man In the Pullman
pocketed the uncut magazine he had
been dreaming over and, picking up
gun case and valise, followed line
OF fellow passengers to the open air,
where one by one they were engulfed
and lost to view amid the gay confu-
sion on the platform.
The absentminded young man, how
ever, did not seem to know exactly
where he was bound for. He stood
hesitating, leisurely inspecting the
flashing ranks of vehicles-depo wag-
ons, omnibuses and motor cars-already
eddying around a dusty gravel drive
conferred by the conventional railroad
dover bed and fountain. The long
train moved out through the Septem-
Der sunshine amid clouds, of snowy
steam.
The young man, gun case In one
hand, suit case in the other, looked
about him in his good humored, lei

WIRELESS STOPS
STEAMER PANIC
STEAMER PROVIDENCE, ON FIRE,
SUMMONS ANOTHER BOAT TO
TAKE PASSENGERS.

NEW YORK, March 13-Prompt and
determined action on the part of Capt.
Appleby of the Fall River line steamer
Providence prevented what otherwise
mighth ave been a serious catastrophe
when fire broke out on board the craft
while she was in Long Island Sound,
bound from Fall River for New York
early today. Three hundred and fifty
passengers were asleep on the Provi-
dence when the fire was discovered on
the freight deck of the steamer, which
was then off Sands Point, twenty miles
from New York.
Fearing that II the alarm were per-
mitted to spread over the ship he
would have a panic of passengers with
which to contend, as well as a fire to
fight, the captain sent a wireless call
to the steamer Richard Peck of the
same line, which he knew must be
| somewhere in the vicinity. The Rich
ard Peck also was bound for New
| York, and, while she had not beer
sighted during the night, it was known
that her schedule would bring her al
that hour to a point within a few
miles of the Providence. The call was
promptly answered, the predicament
of the Providence was explained, each
steamer was advised of the others pc.
sition and they started toward eacr
other.
When the steamers came together
the fire was still in progress on the
Providence, but the passengers, who

driven by Montague Roberts was an or
binary stock car, while the other cars
in the race were all built especially for
the race.
The conditions which have had to be
overcome during the entire race, have
been very severe, and the trip has GER
tainly been a good test of the car to
say nothing of the ability of the driver
to vercome all the obstacles which
have been placed in his way.
From the time that the race started
from Times Square, New York on Fe-
bruary ~ the drivers have had to buck
heavy snow drifts along the route, and
in a number of places have had to cross
treacherous streams and to find roads
over parts of the way that have been
entirely wiped out by rains and wash
outs.
The Thomas Company certainly de-
serve great credit for the way they
have built their cars, and the driver
Montague Roberts DESERVES all the
credit that is coming to him for the
way he was piloted his machine.
From the very start of the race Rob
erts has been in the lead, and for The
obstacles he has had to overcome il
makes his record all the more wonder
full.
The distance which he has had tC
cover is about $500 miles and tn
time of the trip al days at an average
of about ia miles a day.
Taking the time of the year int,
consideration this record is wonderful
When the cars were in Chicago I
was agreed that the winner in Sa
e Francisco would wait for all tn
= cars before they started on the mex
stage of the race from San Francisco
to Valdez Alaska, by boat, distanc
of 220O miles.
The cars will probably be all in Sa,
Francisco by the end of the month, an
the start will be made some time tn
first week in April.

There has been considerable yicis-
situde connected with the development
of the ignition problem. Some ma
nufacturers preferred not to expert
ment with it, undoubtedly recognizing
its many difficulties, and, therefore,
simply adopted the best foreign prac-
tice while others, determined to have
the best, at considerable cost and trou-
BILE to themselves experimental with a
variety of devices and consequently
made progress.
The make and break spark, originally
the most used American FORM general
ly gave way to the jump spark, and as
a result of this change the dynamos
and magnetos formerly used largely
disappeared and were replaced by dry
cells or storage cells. These in turn,
have begun to give way to alternating
magnetic, a modification of the original
mechanical generator, and one which
produces the electrical impulse at the
time needed therefore giving a larger
spark with a smaller amount Of power.
These alternating magnetos are in al
most every instance gear driven, and
are, therefore, more costly and Ella
borate than the original devices; but
makers each year, recognizing the i'm
| portance of the ignition, have been
willing to pay that larger price for sat
isfactory apparatus and positive SER
vice. The alternating magnetic has
been improved in every way, the weak
spots of the past have been elimin-
ated and in some case the magnetic is
so constructed that it delivers a high
tension current, much as is produced
by aid of the jump spark coil.
Storage cells have been lightened
and improved so that they give much
better results, and more durable, and
the various charging stations through
out the land are better acquainted with
them, and therefore better able to make
them give good satisfaction. They
are still heavy, however, and the fact
that they need recharging frequently
causes many makers to still hold to the
dry cell.
In the past it has been quite COM
mon to use a coil for each cylinder
in the belief that the primary contact
points would not stand the continuous
service of sparkling four or six cylin-
ders Here, as elsewhere this was
found to be largely a matter of proper
design and coils are now made with
contacts so large and so well arranged
| for recitation of heat that they may
spark continuously without fusing and
sticking or welding together, Con-
densers also have been much better
proportioned to the work in hand,
which likewise reduced the sparkling
and heating at the contact points.
These improvements not only give
better service but save additional coils
which are expensive, and simplify the
ignition system, for it is easier to take
care of a single vibrator than of FIVE
or six. With this single coil is used

Every autOmODlllSt should be inter-
ested and appreciate the work being
done in agitating a tire test, or at least,
means of bringing out the best In
tires 1t is a vital question to both the
user and the manufacturer of automo-
miles, and an important factor in the
permanency of the industry.
In every contest held duding the last
three years there has been either
large proportion of perfect scores, or
else the contest was so severe that it
was a test of physical endurance to
the driver.
Having reached a point of perfec-
ton where it is almost impossible, in
a respectable test, to eliminate all per-
feet scores would prove that new fea-
lures can and should be included in
the tests. 1t would seem therefore,
that the time is ripe to penalize tires
and tire troubles in all contests, whe-
ther it be for speed, economy or en-
durance. The tire is as much part
of the design and equipment as the
radiator or the rear axle.
Where the weight of the car is pro-
perly distributed on all four wheels
and the tires are the right size, there
will be little tire trouble. 1t is a
well known fact that an underlined
car weighing 1900 pounds will have
more tire trouble than a car properly
equipped weighing $500 pounds.
To be sure, there is an element OF
luck in regard to tire troubles, but
this only reflects ON punctures, for
which no one but the nail in the road
can be held responsible.
Punctures, being purely of an ac-
cidental nature, should not be consider
ed, while bowouts, rim cutting and
pinching are caused by defective ma
terial, workmanship or design on the
part of the tire, and by overlooking
faulty distribution of weight or poor
operating of the car. In other words
every working part of the car is sub
jected to the same conditions as the
tire, with the possible exception OF
a puncture.
| Great improvements have been made
in the selection of other materials and
designs used in the cars, as a result OF
contests, and it has always been a won
der to me why that part of the car
which gives the most trouble should
not be subjected to the same tests and
have the same opportunity of develop
ment.
We already have an inner tube on
the market which is interviewer with
fabrics in such way as to reinforce
the casing against blowouts, and there
is no question that if tire troubles were
included in all contests there would be
greater strides toward lettering the
tire as a whole.
