TWO LOVELY YOUNG WOMEN TO
DECIDE SUPREMACY WITH FOlLS

an on the Pacific coast. Now, Lowell
Alice, being somewhat proud of her
attainments as a foil wielder, sent
forthwith challenge to Gladys. 1t
has not been learned whether the
gauntlet was thrown or whether a per-
fectly good friend carried Lowell
Alice's card to Gladys. Anyway. the
match was arranged. Foils with large
soft rubber buttons on the dangerous
end were decided on as weapons de
luxe.
Usually masks are worn, but not so
in the coming duel. 1t it alleged that
each fair foiler being somewhat come
ly in face and figure, desires to give
the audience the full worth of it's
money, and therefore does not wish to
hide her pretty complexion behind an
ugly wicker or wire contraption.
Somewhere in the dim and distant
past Miss Taylor had certain British
relatives. Hence she will be entitled
to the use of such truly medieval ex-
pressions as "Zounds, egad, odds bod
lSins," etc.
Miss Wheeler is hiding her light
under a bushel. She declares she will
allow her foil to speak for her, and
that every time it speaks the language
will be red. Possibly she refers to
those telling remarks which make
blood flow.
In any event, there is to be match,
two women will be the contestants,
and it will be worth while seeing. Ask
oliver Morosco.

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 9.-If Amer
lean automobile track records are not
broken in the fifty days racing which
began yesterday on the magnificent
Atlanta automobile speedway, it will
be surprise to the star pilots who
gave the two-mile track thorough
test today.
Robertson, Strang, Christie, Chevrolet
and other drivers declared that the At

opportunity to clip a few seconds
from previous records.
Louis Strang today took his 200
horsepower Fiat four miles in min
utes IL 2-5 seconds, the second lap
being made in three cylinders.
The cars tried out on the course to-
day made the two miles at an average
Of about 1 minute 45 seconds, and fin
ished the days practice without me-
chanical troubles.
There will be six events tomorrow,
but the greatest interest centers in
the one-mile test, which will bring out
the high-power machines, and the 200
mile stock chassis race for cars of a
piston displacement Of 301 to 405 cubic

Beginning next Monday night a new

be known as the Olympic, and its
lessees, the Alphin-Fargo musical
comedy company, have chosen the
building formerly known as the Peo-
ple's, and more recently as the Isis,
to house their venture. Farce come
dies and musical comedies will be pre-
sented by a company of players well
known locally, and an earnest bid for
support will be made. Two perform
ances will be given nightly, the first
being THE Merry Maniac" by Charles
Alphin, the popular local composer
and producer.
The company which will open the
Olympic next Monday night is COM
posed of Maude Rockwell, Blossom
Seeley Jules Mendel, Dave Morris,
and Rose Leoman.
There is only one Richard Carle, and
in reviying his pretty and tuneful mu-
sical comedy, "rhe Mayor of Toxic"
the Ferris Hartman company has done
well. Good audiences are greeting the
production at the Grand and the big

in this, its best vehicle thus far dur
ing the present engagement.
Any merely hippant musical show
dealing with Japan must of necessity
borrow much in atmosphere and meth
cd of treatment from "The Mikado,"
and "The Mayor of Toxic" is no ex-
ception TO the universal rule. But the
dialogue and its relation to a very tan
gible plot are original and consistently
amusing The music is far better than
that of many recent musical comedy
successes, embodying not a little of the
comic opera quality which the public
still relishes hugely on the infrequent
occasions when permitted to hear II.
One hopes that the success OF the
Hartman company this week VIII In

the classics Of light opera, such as
was projected by the late lamented
Morosco musical company, may be
fact of the near future.
Among individuals, honors were
shared by Mr.. Hartman, Joseph Fo-

Columbia Is Now Third, studebaker

The status of the racing cars into
Phoenix took another turn yesterday.
The question turned upon the towing
Isotta Faschini. which at first had been
disallowed a place in the order of ar
rival of the cars at Phoenix, the Isotta
having died a mile and a quarter from
the fair gronds in the city of Phoenix,
and from which point Fred C. Fenner
had the car towed in. by another auto
mobile.
Advices received last evening from
George P. Bullard, president of the
Maricopa Automobile club, stated that
the Isotta had been allowed the second
place, notwithstanding the fact that
She had been towed in otherwise than
under her own power, and that this was
in accordance with the agreement
signed by all the contestants, that any
car might use any power in reaching
the finish, provided it was not by the
aid of any railway train of any descrip-
tion. OF course as towing" by rope or
chain Is not railroad propulsion the
committee evidently decided that the
Isotta had come within the scope and
meaning of the agreement.
This moves the Columbia back a
notch also the Studebaker and Kissel-
determined by the contest committee
is as follows: Buick, 1sotta, Columbia,
Studebaker and Kisselkar.
A special telegram to The Herald late
last night announces that the Pennsyl-
vanla had arrived yesterday at Phoenix
at II o'clock, and with this car there
came Roy Stearns, driver of the Ford,
which is still at Quartzite with a
broken steering knuckle. This report
accounts for all of the cars except the
Elmore concerning which there is no
word. The Franklin gave up the fight
at Mecca, and the Doris was severely
injured at Palm Springs in a collision
with a tree in the dark.
Dick Harrsen, who was to drive part
of the journey with William Bosbyshell
on the Doris, returned to this city
Monday, and In commenting upon the
ending of the Doris part
in the event stated that the little car
was forty-five minutes ahead of her
schedule at Palm Springs when she hit
the tree and was working to perfection,
never having missed 81 shot from the
time of leaving from the starting point

and with forty-five minutes to the good

The track races will take place on the
