OF AUTO
TOURISTS NOW
EXPECTED HERE
Effect of New Laws Will Be
an thrush of Motor
Travellers.

The State department of motor
vehicles has been q very busy place
since Governor Fort signed the new
automobile bills. as much preliminary
work had to be accomplished in record
time. Especially was this so In refer
ence to the law granting touring privi-
leges to out-of-State motorists for lin
tied periods. This law necessitated the
preparation Of special application and
Identification tags, which Commissioner
Smith hopes to have ready for dstribu-
ton to the agencies early in the COM
ing week.
The tourist tags will be made up in
one piece, ready to be attached to the
Identification numbers of the State
from which the motorist il. Registered,
and will contain the months n dates
in four separate lines, which are to be
cancelled by the motorist upon entering
New Jersey. In the case of Sunday
touring three days will be allowed on
the tag, SO that a tourist entering the
State on Saturday will be allowed until
Monday on one of his two-day privi-
leges.
AS only one tourist tag will be issued
in any calendar year to an out-of-State
motorist, the license becomes vod as
soon as eight days nave been cancelled
on the tag, and to avoid repetition the
manufacturers number of the car will
be written in the Identification marker
as well as in the permit carried by the
owner of the car.
AS no drivers license is required 0,
tourists using the eight-day privilege
the tag car easily be obtained by ap.
plication through the Smail pon tn,
payment OF the 81 fee.
The practical working out Of thii
law, which is somewhat in the nature
of an experiment, will be watched will
interest by motorists.

THE IDEAL CHAUFFEUR.

adopted by a local motorist for the
guidance of his drivers. If followed to
the letter they come pretty near to the
ideal:

DO not go outside the legal speed
limit.
Never take a chance; let the other
fellow do so. -
Don't nurse any grouches.
Call up on phone every night before
going home.
Be willing, courteous, obliging, and
neat.
Always. crank machine with left hand
Keep engine clean and in good order
Examine brakes every day.
Examine steering gear every day.
Keep machine clean and well oiled
Drive very slowly in city or town.

THE BRUSH
MOTORING in R RICO.

Mr.. and Mrs. J. A. Cranberry. of 70
Hollywood avenue, East Orange. have
just returned from a two months trip
to Porto Rico, where they INDUCED in
quite considerable >automobiling.
Mr.. Cranberry states that the roads
on the island are excellent and that
many automobiles, nearly all of Ameri-
can make, are to be seen. The Insular
Auto Company-a New Jersey Com
contemporaries two Knox 7-passenger
cars on a regular daily schedule over
the military road between San Juan
and Ponce. This is a stone road, in
good condition, although very winding,
having about 700 turns in twenty miles
as 1t crosses the mountains.
The tourists had good weather dur
ing their entire stay and everything
was most enjoyable. even though the
hotel accommodations were found to be
very POOR.

THE RAMBLER MAGAZINE.

A national magazine for motorists
which will not accept a single line Of
advertising and which is mailed free to
one hundred thousand people each
month, is the unique publication known
as the Rambler Magazine, published by
Thomas B. Jeffrey & Company, makers
of the Rambler car, in the interest of
fourteen thousand Rambler owners.
The latest issue of this magazine, now
being mailed. is practically of standard
magazine size without the advertising
which the larger magazines carry and
in it appears articles descriptive d
touring, with pictures especially posed
by some of the best photographers In
the country.
The Rambler people offer big prizes
to amateur photographers for photo
graphs and these are reproduced in this
magazine.
The publication started a few years
ago, circulating among Rambler owners
alone. Then owners began asking tt
have it sent to their friends and these
have increased to such a large number
that the circulation has now reached its
present large figure.

objection to the bill.
The new measure provides for regis
tration fees for vehicles as follows:
Four dollars under 20-horsepower; Sc
for 20 to 3O-horsepower; $40 for vehicles
over SO-horsepower. The bill also re-

TOUR
ENTRIES ARE TO
CLOSE ON MAY IS
Much Interest Being Shown in
the Great Motorcar
Classic.

The time for closing the entries for
the Glidden tour of this year is rapidly
approaching. May is has beer set,
which is an unusually early date, but
the interest in the contest is much
greater han ever before and Chairman
Francis B.. Hover has already received
a larger number of entries of cars of
all classes and many more are positive
ly pledged. It looks like a big field Of
contestants for both the Glidden and
Hover trophies.
In addition to these trophies, the city
officials Of Detroit, from which city the
tour will start, have ofiri rs appropri-
ated $3.50 of the munich. Z funds for
the purchase of a troph&. n be known
as the Detroit cup, to be presented to
the winner in the ~toy-tonneau class. A
committee headed by the Mayor was
appointed to purchase the trophy.
The manufacturers of Detroit have
pledged fifteen entries in the race and
everything points to a most successful
and enjoyable event.
Although a few automobiles still
favor the adoption Of touring rules
that will permit of many cars being
tied at the finish, with perfect scores
to their credit, there seems to be q
majority sentiment among manufactur-
ers welcoming the hard conditions oil
a true contest, in which a perfect score
will be so hard to obtain that a win
ming car will without doubt be obtained
One manufacturer, in writing about
the tour. SAYS.
III would like to see the tour finish
with no perfect scores, the car with the
smallest penalization winning. This
would be entirely sensible, for nc SAM
automobilist would expect a car to bt
driven hard for 1000 miles, half Of 4
over very bad roads, and not be de-
layed nor require adjustments at an,
time during the trip The great value
of the Giidden tour is that it reveals t.
the user how the various cars 81
through the ordeal of a trip that is {
little more arduous than any to which
he subjects his car. The travelling OF
schedule and the keeping of a close rec
ord Of all repairs is what counts. AL
unrestricted race across the country, II
which a car may be rebuilt sever
times without any one knowing it, is o
no account to, any one, but automobil
lists all over the world watch the Gid
den contest every year, and If now
is made a closer contest 1t will b

SINK TO RISE Is AN
ATTRACTIVE PROPERTY
From Sundays Daily,

Returning from an inspection Of the
Sink 10 Rise mines in the Copper
Basin district, yesterday. I'D Block
feels somewhat enthusiastic over the
recent work given them. lie believes
that the property is an attractive one,
and will continue development. while
no extensive work has been given this
group, the prospecting of the ground
has been confined 10 the zone at all
points, and II Is probable that future
exploitation will be conferred Mt some
designated point on the vein, after
what has been proven along the en-.
tire fssure opened. From the initial
work to point about 500 feet dis
tant, the mineral characteristics have
continued unbroken. and NJ the late
work given in a shaft 100 feet deep.
n three foot vein IL shown tina, gives
good values in gold.
Interest attaches to this property
from the fact that its pay streak may
BE- termed Of freaky make up, In .
mineralogieal sense, and 10 IL doubtful
II there js more perplexing ninipg
proposition in existence in this ter.
ritory than what is shown there. The
product Is peculiarly white one,
and assays and sample runs from II

- to si7 per ton. This character Of
the pay streak IL three feet wide NJ
the present depth, and its walls are

soft composition, and carries some sui.

like meteorological make, up has never
