PYTHIANS MAY
POLICE COURSE
SANTA MONICA KNIGHTS TO
PROTECT ROAD RACE
Final Details Are Being Worked Out
by Dealers and Committee,
and Entries Are Conn.,
ing In

SANTA MOI "a, May 22.-Accord-
ing to plans now being made. there is
a prospect of utilizing the third regi-
ment, Uniform rank of the knights of
Pythias, to patrol the course during
the great annual road race July 10.
The original plan was to secure the
services of the state militia for the
purpose. but the former organization
is looked upon with favor by the COM
mittee in charge of the arrangements
for policing the course.
The road both inside the city limi1s
and outside is being put in first class
condition, city teams working inside
the corporation and the supervisors
looking after their end. Arrangements
are being made with view to holding
an automobile race preliminary to the
great event, at a date several days
earlier in the month.
Entries for the July road race were
opened Tuesday and by noon Wednes-
day twelve had been received by Ralph
HamIin chairman of the committee
handling the big motor classic.
The entries will not be announced
until after the date of closing, which
is June l. A limit of sixteen cars for
both the light and small car race was
made by the dealers at their meeting
Wednesday night.
1t was also decided by the members
of the aSsociat ton not to allow two cars
of the same make to be entered in the
race This may be detrimental to the
contest, according to some of the best
authorities, while other dealers have
long argued for the rule.
Preparations have been made by sew
eral of the dealers to enter two cars IN
the one or the other of the events the
machines being of the same make but
of distinctive models.
The other dealers argued that by
entering two cars a contestant could
instruct one man to make a straight
away race of the contest, driving to
win, and the other driver to obstruct
the course of the other cars and gen.
orally assist in team" work
Upon motion of William r. Ruess,
tie members agreed not to allow two
cars of the same make in the race.
Two of the dealers who had worked
against the ruling and who win be

BUSINESS PROSPERITY is
AGAIN At A HIGH EBB
Seasons Sales of One Eastern Con-
Germ Exceed All Previous
Records

A striking evidence Of the improve
ment in trade, and increase in general
prosperity throughout the United
States, is afforded by the sales made
In April by the National Cash Register
company, which reports an increase
of 81 per cent over business done dur
ing April last year The sales mad"
by this firm for the first four months
of 1909 show an increase of 6 per cent
over the largest corresponding period
in any previous year and an increase
of 46 per cent over the same period of
last year.
No better indication of prevailing
business conditions can be found than
the buying power of tradesmen in
every line and their ability to enlarge
and improve their business and meth
DDS.
Reports of this character certainly
show a general increase in commercial
activity in all lines during 1903, and
not only a return to conditions as en-
ioyable as those existing before the
term of business depression, but even
greater prosperity than heretofore
known in the country.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-05-23

most affected by it are Norman w
Church and J. S. Conwell.
Mr.. Church had made preparations
to enter two big Stoddard-Daytons II
the big race, and one car in the sinai
race. Mr.. Conwell had arranged tc
have two cars in the light car race, one
of them being the first car of the new
Maxwell pattern seen on the coast
The other Maxwell would have beer
the regular 30-horsepower touring car
chassis, which has a piston displace-
ment of slightly under $50 inches.
Plans for the grandstand were COM
pleted this week, and work on Its con-
struction will be started in a few days
Considerable road work has already
been done by the Santa Monica Off
Gals in putting the course in shape for
fast running.
Two of the turns will be fixed short
~ before the race. The other part OF
the road is in fair shape. and will re-
duire little attention. The turn from
ocean avenue into Nevada avenue will
be banked heavily, a retaining wall
being built on the outer edge of the
curb more that six feet high.
Dirt will be piled inside of this and
the surface rolled with a steam roller
and oiled. The straightaway from
Ocean avenue to the Soldiers home
is IN perfect COHIlllOiif Will Tic NAN0li-
ton of one sandy stretch of about JOG
feet long. This will be surfaced and
oiled.
Soldiers home turn will be made
easy by grading away part of the side
walk and allowing the cars to take a
sweeping swing on to the San Vim
cente boulevard
Considerable oil will be put on this
stretch, and some surface work done
% NI,A ID hG
second half of the road is now well
oiled and solid enough to allow the
cars to make high speed.
Ocean avenue is in good shape ano
will need but little work. The grand
stand will be built midway on this
stretch, allowing the spectators to see
practically all the course with the AID
Of strong glasses.
The first printed rules and entry
blanks for the road race made their
appearance this week, after consider
able delay. Eighteen separate rules
form the conditions under which the
cars will run.
Objection is being made by some of
the dealers to a section of rule which
provides for repairs and adjustments
while the car is on running time.
The rule also pYovides that all re-
pairs and adjustments be made by the
occupants OF the car. II Is redSoled
by some of the dealers that unless this
rule is enforced, several of the more
prosperous agents will have crews OF
expert machinists scattered around the
course.
The duty of these mechanics would
be to assist the crew of the car to re-
build the machine if necessary, or II
any accident happened to injure the
car they would Immediately substitute
ne wmaterial and assist in putting il
on the car for the damaged parts.

LORD GOES EAST TO GET
TWO NEW MODEL RACERS

Preliminary to the drawing to close
of the most successful wear in the his
tory of the Lord Motor Car company
and the opening up of the season for
1910 cars, P. A. Lord, president of that
concern has left for the east, where he
will remain for three or four weeks,
during which time he will visit both
the Histories of the Studebaker and
the E. M f. companies, the cars of
both of which companies he handles
in Southern California.
1t is intimated that one of the OBJ
jects of Mr.. Lords visit oo~t is to ar
range for a 1910 model of one or both
of these cars and to have them hurried
forward in order that they may partici-

PATHFINDER TO SEATTLE
STILL HAS NEW YORK AIR

Mr.. Reddington, who is making the
trip on the Ocean-to-Ocean Pathfinder
from New York to Seattle, reports
from Boise that up to the time he had
left the car at Twin Falls, Idaho, not
one particle of trouble had occurred
to the Diamond tires and Marsh rims,
which equipped the machine and that
the original New York air was still in
the tires
Considering the exceptionally strenu-
Gus conditions the car has had to con-
tend with on its run so far the service
of tires and rims is truly remarkable.

BY the filing of a plat for the Mon

evident that the Hartman lines, of
which the new road lis presumed to be

signed by ]. II. Richards. as president.
and George w. Boschke. as chief
engineer of the Montana. Idaho. &
Pacific Railroad company. who are Of

For several months parties have been
been surveying in the pass one party
employed by the Clearwater Short
Line company, a branch of the
Northern Pacific. while the other
outfits We're working for the Har-
riman system. The rival survey
ors fought all summer for the best
right -of-way. with the result that the
first plat was filed by the Clearwater
Short Line company. 1t has been
rumored that. though the latter COM
pany was the first to file its plat. II
had not. by any means, obtained the
choice territory. In fact, there are
many people who have stated that the
o. II. 4 y. surveyors beat their rivals
In the race and got the best line. The
latter company made its survey and
laid off its men some weeks ago. but
not until yesterday was the plat filed
As shown by the map. the line be-
gins at point about 10 miles east of

NEWS OF THE RAILWAY WORLD
BURLINGTON GIVING
CRACK SERVICE
HILL ROAD is MAKING EXCEL
LENT TIME BETWEEN CHI.
cAGo AND COAST.

1t is only a few months since the
burlington Route commenced running
through trains from Chicago via St.
Paul to the North Pacific coast. and
already the through traffic has so ma
terially increased that 1t has been
necessary to arrange for improved
service.
The burlington runs two through
trains every day from Chicago to
Seattle and Tacoma via ST. Paul-one
the Oriental Limited over the Grea,
Northern. the other the Northern
Pacific Express via the Northern
Pacific from St Paul. Both are solid
electric lighted through trains to
Puget sound. but hereafter these trains
will also be solid through trains to
Portland. the Portland equipment con-
sisting of through standard and tourist
sleeping cars and observation car
from Chicago. running over the new
North Bank road from Spokane to
Portland. so-called because for fully
e half the distance 1t follows the north
bank of the Columbia river. This is
the most recently completed line In the
west and is said to he the best built
railroad in the country with a maxi
mum curvature of three degrees and a
maximum grade of tGo-fifths of one
per cent. 1t is also said to be the
most picturesque line In the entire
northwest
The time from Chicago to Portland
under the new arrangement. will be -
hours-three days-the same as the
time To Puget sound at the present
time.
The Oriental Limited will continue
to leave Chicago at 1915 p. IN. as at
present, and the Northern Pacific En-
press will leave at 1000 a. m. instead
of $40 rs heretofore. arriving Port
land at s: 90 a. IN. the third morning
thereafter. Both these trains are
magnificently equipped with every
comfort and convenience for the
traveller.
Another important change that the
Burlington will make on the same
date is the auickening of its time from
Chicago to Denver for the Colorado
Limited. which leaves Chicago at 9:45
a. IN. and now reaches Denver at AIS.
Under the new schedule ii viii arrive
at Omaha 1l:so p. m. same day and
Denver 2:l5 p. m. next day-two hours
faster than at present.
Another decided Improvement which
will be appreciated by travellers be-
tween Kansas City. st. Joseph and
Omaha is the fact that cafe club cars
are being put on all day trains so
that all meals will be served on board
the trains instead of passengers being
required to get their meals at eating
stations en- route as heretofore.

HILL ROAD BALKED
BY 0. R. { \.
TRAFFIC AGREEMENT is ENDED
BY WESTERN RoAo-N. p.
UP AGAINST IT.

Are the Occur dAlenes to be the
scene of another railroad battle such
as was witnessed here In the old Gays
when armed forces on both sides
held the field between here and
Burke? Is the Northern Pacific line
to be forced to build to Harrison, at
least. If not clear through to Spo-
kane?
These are questions which will be
decided in the course of the next few
months. For some time past ii has
been freely rumored on the street
that the 1D-year agreement entered
into between the O. r.. g. y. and the
Northern Pacific railroad companies
has either terminated or has been
terminated. BY this agreement, re-
eiprocal in it's nature, the o. r. &
N. company. among other items
agrees to honor Northern Pacific
passenger tickets as far, as Harrison
and Northern :. Pacific freight "a
wardner. while the Northern Pacific
in turn handles q. r.. g. y. freight. as
far as Mu1lan. -
The agreement. was made about ID
years ago and ut attime when the O
r. 4 n: company owned line into
Mulian and was having all sorts OF
trouble along the Burke branch. 4
provision of the agreement stated
that on the expiration of the. 10
years the agreement was TO be ken,
in force indefinitely. but terminabIe
on either side giving 90 days notice OF
intention TO withdraw.
1t Is reported on excellent author
-ity that the 10-year term of this
agreement expired recently and that
the O. r. 4 \. company has served
on the Northern Pacific it's notice of
intention to withdraw from the con-
tract at the close of 80 days.
Just what the result of this will be
win remain to be seen. For a long
time past 1t is known that the North
ern Pacific company has been con-
templating the construction of n line
from Wallace to Harrison. and. in
fact. clear through to Spokane. and
on several occasions il has BEEN re-
ported that the actual surveys for this
Tine have been made
II is believed that the result of the
cancellation of the agreement referred
TO will hasten action along this line
lind that the day is close at hand when
both companies will operate through
lines to Spokane.
Inquiries ut the Northern Pacific
depot last night failed to bring forth
any confirmation of the report. When
spoken to by Times reporter last
night Business Agent Marshall of
the o. r. & n. company stated that
SO far he had heard nothing about
any change being made i'm the pres
ent plans of operation. At the same
time the report is persistent and is
believed to carry n great deal of
truth.-wailace Times.

CHAMPIONSHIP HUNT
IS NOW ON
WITH BUNNEY ALREADY IN THE
FIELD, Jim" BROWN WILL
ENTER THE RACE.

And still no particulars from the
front Bunney and his party are yet
in the woods. but no news of their
progress has been received ut the
Northern Pacific offices. The interest
in the division offices over the prog
ress of Chief Clerk Bunney and his
party of hunters surpasses that which
is being, displayed over the adventures
Of Colonel Roosevelt in Africa. Venison
Is something which the clerks i'm the
office have particular liking for and
unless Bnnnes brings back tn. goods
there will be a cool welcome awaiting
him.
Hitherto the chief clerk has enioyed
the title of the best hunter on the
Rocky Mountain division. but yesterday
there was 4 revolt and a new claim
ant is after the title. Jim Brown
better known as sunny jim" is the
man who has the downfall of the chief
clerk in view and he will start out to-
day with the idea of bringing back the
goods and pocketing the title. Brown
already has the enriable record Of be-
ing the best Isaac Walton" i'm this
neck of the woods, but yesterday he
claimed that when compared to his
ability to handle the shotgun his skill
with the rod and line was thing to
be laughed at. He will take with him
today Jack Dishom, the best ball
pitcher that ever rode in caboose. and
who can shoot buckshot just as well
as he can the horsehide. and between
them they hope to bring i'm enough
game to last the whole division at
least week. McQuarrie will be the
party's objective point and tomorrow
they will head for that place, coming
back over the divide driving the game
ahead Of. them. The office men are
divided in opinion between the con-
tending forces. but the outcome is
certain to bring at least one happy
resnlt-game for everybody.
