The Market street property owners
west of the track have decided to take
their troubles into court. and ascer-
tain if the agreement made with Mr..
Frost in regard to the paving is worth
anything or not and no one who under
stands all the circumstances of the
case will blame them very much. It
looks very much as if the case all
hinges on whether or not the present
owners of the road are bound by the
contract made with Mr.. Frost by the
property owners for if they are not it
is not very likely that the prop
erty owners will ever be able to
get anything out of Mr.. Frost.
There are too many ahead of
them there although many of the
people who are parties to the
suit which is about TO be started be-
lieve that he would settle with them
if he could.

New Haven Road
 Gets Park Right

Transfers of real estate in New York State Saturday told in brief the sue cessful termination of the fight of the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad for right of way through Nor ris Park, which is being developed by the Fidelity Development Company or New York.
 The price paid for the land, which comprises about six acres, is said to be about $70O, 900, though $2,O00,0OO was originally asked. Under the terms or agreement the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad. which owns the New York, Westchester & Boston system, will put it's track under ground and will park the strip. which will make a 1O0-foot parkway through the property, 2,300 feet long, from Bronx dale avenue to Pelham parkway. Delay in acquiring this right Of way has been one of the chief obstacles to the construction of this suburban sys- sem, which promises so much for the development of the Eastern Bronx With this line assured at no distant day snd the promise of work soon be- ing started on new Subways and ex- tensions of existing lines Bronx real estate investors are preparing dor re- turn of the days of marvellous activity in that borough.

NOW IS THE TIME TO BUY SUPPLY OF
 WOOD FOR WINTER
SPECIAL RELIEF WOOD YARD HAS INSTALLED MODERN
 DELIVERY SYSTEM.

Have you seen the new delivery team of the Special Relief Wood Yard with it's neat new signs on the sides? Some people have thought that the yard has gone out of business, but such is not the case. The committee have found that such a yard is needed in Bridgeport as in other cities as a permanent institution and are doing all in their power to place the yard on a self-supporting basis
 The old basis Of deliveries by an ex- pressman discouraged many friends of the yard who did not like to wait for delayed deliveries, so team haa been secured and the old patrons are how promptly wood will be delivered.
 A new manager in the person of J. H Whaley, who also has charge of the vacant lot work, has been added recently and the work in both lines is progressing very effectively under his capable direction. Apart from the first appeal for funds the committee has not asked for help for this work except for patronage of the wood much and as good wood for the money as any other yard in the city.
 Just now the wood business is very slow and the wood yard team is being sent around the city with sample boxes which are sold very reasonably to make new friends for the work.
 It would help greatly if those who can afford to would lay in stock of wood at this time from the yard for future use. The yard has it's own phone listed in the telephone book as Wood Yard, Thomas St., 1119-4. Orders may also be left at or phoned to the Y. M. c. A.

Derkum. This machine is said to be
the fastest motorcycle yet built under
the F. A. M. limit of seven horsepower.
Derkum has just received a Merkel,
which is not claimed to be as fast on
the saucer track, and Derkum is willing
to put his track generalship up as the
balance and use the slower machine,
while giving the Frenchman a chance
to make a good pot of money besides
the prize put up by the club for the
professionals.
In the amateur events the f1ve-mile
national championship of the F. A. NJ.
is the star event, and at least one east

for this single race, and then may turn
professional and race Derkum, for he
claims to be dirt track rider as well

LUTSEN, Minn., Nov. 27.-A well di-
rected bullet put through the shoulders
of a charging bull moose in the wilder
ness north of here by Mrs. H. p.
Parker of Chicago, one Of Illinois best
shots, saved her husbands life and
that of the old Indian guide Of the

The moose came upon the Indian
early in the morning while the latter
was drawing a pail of water from a
spring near Parker's camp, preparatory
to breakfast. The Indian. who was un-
armed, called to Parker for help.
Parker came running also without
his rifle and the moose charged him,
the Indian having climbed a tree for
safety.
Parker endeavored to escape and
lodged, the beasts horns piercing his
shirt The moose pursued him and was
about to trample him down when Mrs.
Parker appeared. she fred a rifle at
the raging animal.

"The indianapolis Motor speedway
will be completed on or about December
5, while our record trials will be De-
cember 10 or IL. Every mark from
one-fourth mile to 1000 miles will be
tried for. There will be events for
all the various stock chassis classes
as follows:
"Class /, 451 to 300: class 4, 161 to 2S0
class 3, 251 to 300; class a. 161 to 230;
class 5, 100 and under.
ALSO, for the cars in the free-for-
all classes. 1t is our intention to let
the big cars take the first crack at the
short distance marks up to fifty miles
and then run the stock chassis events.
Any manufacturer desiring to enter
cars can do so free of charge.
"In the long distance events for rec
ords we figure on having from ten to
fifteen cars on the track at a time. The
Warner timing device will be installed
and the meet will be sanctioned so as
to make the marks official. In case an
admission to the stand is made, the
charge will be nominal, likely 25 cents
and so cents, grandstand free.
'This money will be used to defray
the expenses of the meet and whatever
is left over will be given-to the drivers
that lower records, as 1t is the desire
of the management that the marks be
established here, which will prove the
course the fastest in the world.

and the clever little manager will pro-
mote all of the big racing events to
be held at the celebrated course for at
least one more year. MoroSS returned
from the Atlantic auto races recently
and stated that the record breaking
trial spins will be held at the speed
way either December 10 or IL. In these
he states that many of the famous
drivers will compete for the records
In an interview concerning the COM

that all the records that were made
here were swept by the boards on the
southern track, as 1t gives us marks To
lower as soon as we have our record
trials here, which will be when the
brick surface of the track is complete

made at Atlanta win be trimmed will

Bruises, but None Is
Seriously Hurt

Three persons were injured painfully
and had narrow escapes from serious
injury and probable death yesterday
when a south bound car, No. 376 of the
University line, in charge of Conductor
L. Lloyd and Motorman w. II. Stanley,
crashed into an automobile at Hoover
and Quincy streets. The motor car
was carried thirty feet and hurled to

driving the auto, John p. Wall and
Harry Dean, chauffeurs, were thrown
into the street
Goff was the most severely injured.
He sustained a fractured jaw and prob
able internal injuries. So far the at
tending physicians say his injuries are
not Of a serious nature.
Wall, who lives at 1910 Mckinley ave-
nue., suffered a compound fracture of
the great toe of the left foot, wrenched
left knee and a sprained left ankle.
Dean, who is employed at the garage at
Twenty-siXth and Hoover streets, from
where the auto started, sustained nu-
merous cuts and bruises on the body,
and his left ear was lacerated.
Goff, who was driving the auto, is
employed as chauffeur for G.. e. Bit
finger, vice president of the First Ma
tional bank. He took the automobile,
which was loaned to his employer by
the Thomas Motor Car company while
Bittihger's car was being repaired.
The driver of the auto left the garage
and had gone only a few blocks, when,
while on the car tracks and in front of
an approaching street car, the engine
of the automobile went dead. Before
the occupants could jump out or the
motorman could apply the emergency
brakes the auto was struck.
The car was going at high rate or
speed and the motor car was carried
about thirty feet and then thrown to
cne side, hurting out the occupants.
The injured men were picked up and

Daredevil Derkum has given in to

Derkum wants to meet De Roster,

rider, to say the least. Derkum's
friends have put up $1,000 in cold cash
to back the Daredevil against the
Bulldozer if De Roster will ride Der
KUN next Thursday. Derkum is willing
to trim this snug sum down to a size
to fit De Rosters pocket book, if the
Trenchman does not want to go the
limit. What riles Derkum is the claim
made by De Roster that he is cham
pion of the world, though he can only
win on the saucer tracks, where the
machine IS pretty nearly the whole
thing.
