agencies in Europe. This can be
taken as an indication OF the business
activity likely to follow these races"
The example of NJ. Sommer, who is
one OF the substitute pilots in the
contest for the International Cup, is
suggestive. Six or seven weeks ago
he first saw a flying machine. He
bought it, and within few days had
made a world record for flight 1t is
not so many years ago that the auto
mobile was no further developed than
is the aeroplane to-day.
NJ Lambert, who pilots Z Wright
machine, expressed his conviction that
automobile speed tests will be re-
placed by those with the aeroplane.
Even at this stage" he said, "it is
real racing. not merely demonstra-
tions, that is taking place. The fin
ishes are close and at times the aero
planes can be seen struggling for
supremacy In speed. I believe this
meeting will do a large amount of
good from a sporting standpoint.
That the aeroplane has passed the
initial experimental stage is certainly
impressed upon the tens of thousands
of spectators who see the assemblage
of human birds at Betheny preening
their great wings and soaring like
eagles. That the endurance contest
of five laps around the great course
total distance of more than thirty
one miles-is not difficult may be in
ferred from the fight of NJ. Paulhan,
and Mr.. Curtiss' fine performance in
qualifying for one of the contests in
dicates that the struggle for the In
ternational Cup will set new stand
ard for speed.
Aviation week" at Rheims must
give a tremendous stimulus to the
development of aeronautics all over
the world.

affection occurred sometime ago in
Vermont. An aged couple, who
through half a century of married
life had wrangled with each otInr,

The complete success OF the new
fuel while on this 26jO-mile public
test and the advantages gained
through its use were well described
in the following dispatch which the
correspondent of the New York sun
sent to his paper at the conclusion OF
the tour:
"A feature of the tour which was
watched with special interest was
sene, or coal oil, as fuel instead of
gasoline. The new fuel worked
splendidly throughout the 2G50-mile
journey, and all claims made in its
behalf were fully proven. First of
all. as regards cheapness, the White
driver secured kerosene all along the
route from 6 cents to 10 cents cheap
er per gallon than was paid for gaso-
lene. Secondly, the new fuel was
handled without any precautions, and
| il was not unusual to see Kerosene
being poured into the fuel tank while
the crew of the car and an interested
crowd stood by with lighted cigars
and cigarettes. At the finish of the
tour, the White was the only car per
mitted by the authorities to enter
Convention Hall, where the technical
examination took place, without
draining its fuel tank. Thirdly, the
new fuel proved to be absolutely
without smoke or smell. Fourthly
kerosene could he purchased at what
ever part of the route was most con
venient, and not once during the triI
through the ten States of the Middle

The most interesting announce

doubtedly that made month or two
ago TO the effect that the new models
Of the White Steam Cars could be run
on kerosene. or coal oil, instead of
gasoline. Everyone at once recog-
nized that the use of the new fuel
would add materially to the advan-
tages which the White already pos
sessed over other types of cars.
There were some people, however,
who were sceptical as to whether or
not the new fuel could be used with
complete success and. therefore, the
makers of the White Car. the White
Company, of Cleveland. Ohio, deter
mined TO make a public demonstra-
tion of the new fuel in the 1909 Gid
den Tour.
From the standpoint of the public
no test more satisfactory could have
been selected. First Of all, the dis
tance covered on the Glidden Tour
from Detroit to Denver and thence to
Kansas City, was 1850 miles. This
was certainly more than sufficient tC
