PASADENA PLUTOCRAT
RELEASED FROM JAIL
Stanley Smith Pays $50 for Speeding
Automobile and His Compan-
ion Is Fined for Dis
turbng Peace
Especial to The Herald.1

SANTA BARBARA, April 7.-When
Stanley Smith, the Pasadena multi
millionaire, and Tom Herbert, his
travelling companion, opened their eyes
this morning they saw instead of their
palatial apartments at the Potter hotel
the four barred walls of cell.
But the "baby doll" as they termed
their big red touring car when arrest
ed last night, was waiting patiently In
the jail yard.
They were allowed to go on their
own recognizance to gather enough of
their millions to feel comfortable in
court. They returned at 10 o'clock and
faced Judge Rizor. The interview cost
Smith $50 for speeding and Herbert
SIS for disturbing the peace. They paid
up without a murmur and changed
their quarters to the Potter.

DERKUM CHALLENGES
DE ROSTER TO MATCH
HAS HUNDRED DOLLARS TO
BE. FRENCHMAN
Local Crack Believes That He Has
Reading Standard Timed to
Point Where II Can
Beat Indian

Paul Derkum is preparing to go for
Jake De Rosters scalp in earnest in
settling the much-mooted question of
supremacy between these two remark
able speed fiends.
Derkum has felt all along that he
could outride De Roster, once his ma
chine were in such tune as to give
him the speed that he knew 1t would
be necessary for it to have to beat
Jake on his Indian. Having at last
gotten his Reading Standard up to the
raw edge condition that he wants 1t,
Derkum has challenged De Roster to a
hundred-dollar match race for ten
miles, to be pulled off next Sunday aft
ernoon during the regular racing pro-
gram at the Coliseum saucer track.
The race should be one fit for the
gods, the stars in the heavens and for
those mortals who enjoy the thrills
of inordinate and almost superhuman
speed. Derkum and De Roster have
had one tilt-during the first days
racing at the Coliseum-which gave
those present an opportunity to appre-
ciate Just what the race of next Sun
day will be, with the track clear Of
all riders except these two dare devils.
An entirely new worlds record
should result from this race, and the
spectators certainly will be made to
feel that they are in the presence of
a performance not possible to be seen
on any similar track in any other por-
ton of this or any other country.
Amateurs Arrange a Match
Not to be outdone by their profess
sional brothers, another match has
been arranged-a return affair-be-
tween Freddie Huyck and M. j. Graves
on their Indian and N. S. U. machines,
respectively.
Graves, it will be remembered, de-
feated Huyck in last Sundays match
race, the event incidentally being one
of the most thrilling cards on the list
of events Huyck is a remarkable rid
er and his defeat by Graves was a
signal victory for that sturdy little To-
cal rider, putting him in class with
the worlds amateur champion. If he
can succeed in repeating the trick
Sunday. Graves will prove himself
worthy of the mettle of any amateur
in the world and will have taken a
long step forward in springing into ma
tional fame, as the best performers on
the local saucer track must hereafter
be looked up to by all parts of the
country as the speediest men in the
two ranks of the sport. For this rea-
son and for the sake of the reputation
of his machine 1t is more than prob
able that Huyck will make the ride of
his life in endeavoring to beat Graves
across the tape.

dent Taft on the Oleander passed
here at eleven o'clock this morning,
six hours behind schedule time
Vicksburg will be reached about
o'clock thi evening. The program
at Vicksburg will undoubtedly be
cut down simply to the banquet. The
Oleander is able to outrun the re-
mainder of the fleet and has forged
ahead of the rest of the steamers.
Probably most of the steamers made
directly for New Orleans. cutting out
stops at Vicksburg tonight, Natchez
tomorrow and Baton Rouge tomOr-
row night, with the hope of rendez-
vousing nine miles out of New Or
leans and entering that city Satur-
day morning with the president. The
latter took Governors Noel of Mis-
sissippi and Sanders of Louisiana on
board the Oleander last night before
cutting away from the remainder of
the fleet in order to keep engage
ments down the river. Speaker
Cannon last night declared that he
would never vote for any waterways

declared that although bonds had

WHAT POTATOES CAN DO.

BY intense cultivation and careful
work in handling a potato crop will
give results as in any other line of
farm products there is no place in
Idaho that better results should be
obtained than right here in the
Payette Valley. There are several
good crops of potatoes here this year
but none that will compare with one
reported in the Rigby Star which
gave the raiser 500 bushels per acre.
It will be seen however, that it was
carefully prepared soil that did it.
The time is now upon the country
when careful cultivation of smaller
acreagps is the advisable scheme. OF
the Rigby mans crop the Star says:
George Briggs has a crop Of po-
tatoes this fall that is the talk ofthe
entire country. and in the matter of
producing beats anything ever grown
in this part of the valley. He in
formed the editor Of the Star. Mon

MANY ENTREES MADE.

Finding thefirst buildings erected
for the live stock show at the Alas
ka- YukonPacific Exposition which
will be held from September 27 to
October 8, completely inadequate to
handle the enormous number of an
imals which have been entered, the
department of works at the Expo
sition has found it necessary to
double the size of the barns.
The new structure will be 13Oft
in length by so feet in width, and
it will be completed in time for the
opening of the live stock show on
September 81 The work is be-
ing rushed and large force of men
is now at work.
In all 21S2 animals have been en-
tered by the two hundred and fifty
breeders represented. This stock is
coming from practically every state
of the United States and province
of Canada. Many of the breeders
have imported the best foreign
stock to exhibit in the hopes of
drawing down prizes with European
animals In the show there will be
2SS horses, 1919 cattle, 1913 swine,
and S72 sheep.
In the horse division, as is usual
ly the case. the Percheron class is
leading in number of animals enter
ed with 60. The largest single en-
try Of Percherons is made by A. c. |
Ruby of Portland Ore, who will ex-
hibit sixteen while h. F. Kleinmey- |
err of LosAngeles, Cal, is bringing
10 of the same class from Califor-
mia. The other entries in this di- |
vision run from one to five.
