Ten-NIile Record Brsken.
II was in the second event-a ten-mile
race for stripped chassis, that the first
record was broken. Chevrolet won easily
and apparently, had little difficulty in cut
ting Oldfield's record from 9:12A to $685..
This race was a clean sweep for the Blu
icks, as Strang finished second and Bur
man third.
Oldfield established his mile record on
the long home stretch Of the immense ell
lipse. Getting away to a flying start his
big car fairly tore up the track until It
passed over the tape that marked the fin
ish. When his time was announced, O:4S1,
he was greeted with a mighty cheer, as he
had clipped nearly eight seconds off Ralph
De Palma's former, record Of O:5l. made in
a Fiat on September 8 1905.
The closest race-of the day came in the
five Amile stripped cassis event, won by
Rurman in a Buick after a fierce struggle
with Bourque. The two mighty cars tore
around the track with wheels almost
touching throughout the five miles. The
scant margin of nine-tenths of a second
separated Bourque from victory in the last
race he ever finished.

NEW YORK, AugJ Rs-Wilbur and Or
Vile Wright the Rviatorsr today .broerht
suit in the United States circuit court
here against the Aeronautio society. of this
city, alleging that the Herrlng-Curtiss
aeroplane which the society recently pura
chased and which has had several tryouts
at Mineola is an infringement on their
patents. The Wrights demand that the in
fringing machine be turned over to them
for destruction and in addition ask that
the court assess damages for three fold the
amount Of whatever losses they are noun6
to have suffered by. reason of the infringe
ment and the public exhibition or rental
Of the infringing machine. A hearing in
the suit will probably be held early in
October.
Aeronautic experts here tonight gener-
ally viewed the suit as in the nature Of a
test case, brought to determine legally
whether the Wrights patents cover ef-
fectually all aeroplane constructed along
similar. lines. Regarded in this light It is
pointed out the suit is. likely to have a
most. important bearing on the. development
Of aerial navigation. The H~erring-Cur-
tiss machine is at present the only Amer
lean rival of Importance in the commercial
field, but practically all the experimental
heavier than air machines which have
met with any degree of success in this
country have been constructed, along lines,
which apparently, the Wrights regard as
pTe-empted by their patents.
In the bill of complaint filed today the
Wrights set forth that their claims to
the sole rights in heavier than air flying
machines of this type have been recog-
nized by the United States government,
which has purchased some OF the mach
ines; while the sovereigns Of other coun-

SOUTH NASHVILLE A. M. E. DIS
TRICT CONFERENCE.

The A. M. E. District Conference
and Sunday-School Convention of the
South Nashville P. e. District con-
vened at Mt. Juliet, Tenn, Wednes-
day, the 18th inst, with Rev. G. l..
Jackson, Presiding Elder presiding.
This district consists or fifteen APP
pointments in the Tennessee Confer.
ence, the most prominent of which are
st. Paul and Bethel, of this city.
Every charge was represented by
the pastor or official if not both, ex-
cepting Rock Hill and Rock Vale.
Good reports came in from most of
the churches and about $425.00 were
brought in for the cause of education.
This was remarkable considering the
meager support of most of the pas
tors.
The people of Mt. Juliet are excel
lent hosts and the way they enter
tanned the conference made every
delegate wish for more time to spend
in such pleasant environments. The
pastor, Rev. S. J. Howard, is popular
with his people and is certainly wor-
thy of the confidence reposed in him.
Presiding Elder Jackson presided like
veteran and seems equal to every
situation.
That the district Sunday-schools
may be better looked after, Rev. LUZ,
of Nashville, was chosen district SUI
perintendent, with a full corps of
officers. Mrs. Harriet Campbell, of
st. Paul Church, was made district
chairman of the Stewardesses.
Many Improvements are expected
through these organizations.
The conference closed Sunday with
a sermon by the Rt. Rev. Evans Ty-
rec, Bishop of Texas. Bishop Tyree
is wonderful preacher and he
preached a great sermon to an audi
ence which overlooked the church
and crowded the woods around. Mt.
Juliet will never forget that great
day.

SUPERVISORS OF CENSUS.
Director Durand Has Things Ready
for Their Appointment.

WASHINGTON, July 20-The di-
vision of the United States and Porto
Rico into census supervisors districts
and the designation of the number of
census supervisors 10 be employed
for the thirteenth census, on April Is,
1910, has been completed by Census
Director FL Dana Durand, and his fl
nal recommendations have been trans
mitted to Secretary Nagel, of the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor.
There will be $50 supervisors dis
tricts; the United States being subdi-
vided into 929 districts and the other
comprising Porto Rico. The number
of supervisors will be 800, the limit
fixed by Congress. Alaska and Ha-
waii will have their census taken un-
der the supervision of special agents
of the Census Bureau.
After the appointment of supervis-
Ors by the President, combinations by
the Senate will be required. In due
course, the supervisors will designate
to the Census Director the persons
selected as enumerators and, with his
consent, will employ and commission
them.
Following the provisions of the cen
sus law, the boundaries of each SUI
pervisors' district have been made to
conform to a Congressional district
as far as practicable, taking into con-
sideration the density of population
and the difficulty of communication
The Southern States in which the
supervisors districts conform exactly
to the Congressional districts and the
number of supervisors allotted to each
are as follows: Alabama, 8; Arkan
sas, Z; Florida, 3; Georgia, II; Ken
lucky, II; Mississippi, 8; North Caro-
lima, TO- South CGrolina,7; Tennessee
10; Texas, 16, and Virginia, 10.
Those in which the supervisors dis
tricts differ from the Congressional
districts and the number of supervis
ors allotted to each are as follows.
Louisiana, 6; Maryland, 5; Missouri
IA; Oklahoma, 5.
Those which are separately consid
cred as a single supervisors distric
are; Arizona, District Of Columbia an(
New Mexico
Several cities and many single coun
ties are each considered a separate
supervisors district. Precedent has
been in the main respected.

the four officers, and with a rush they
charged through the mob and leaped
into a big automobile which they had

to the mob and dwelling their revol-
vers upon its leaders, they drove out
of danger and rushed the man to At
lanta, where he was placed in the
Tower Prison for safe keeping.
