AIR GAUGE PLANT is
DOING NICE BUSINESS
Large Orders Coming from Different
Quarters and Big Deal Is
on the Tapis

The manufacture OF the Twitchel air gauge
for automobile tires, a recent addition to Los
Angeles industries is assuming substantial
proportions The w. ID. Newerf Rubber com
pany the distributors. celebrated Its removal
to the new store by booking an order for 1000
gauges from the Morgan & Wright company
This is the second largest order received from
the Morgan e. Wright people. The Firestone
Tire company has asked for price on $4,000
gauges and Mr.. Newerf may go east in a few
days to close negotiations.
The air gauge plant has been removed to a
new and larger building on North Main street,
and eighteen hands are kept steadily employed.
1t has been decided to employ girls to assemble
the parts, so that still further increase in
the force will be made. New machinery is
being installed. and every nerve is being
strained to keep up with the orders received.

MUD LARkS TO
GET TOGETHER
GEORGE O. BARNES Is ASKED
TO JOIN FRIENDS
LOCAL HAYNES MAN TOOK PART
IN HISTORIC RUN
II Was in the Old Days of 1908, When
the Industry Was Baby and
Road Racing Was
New

George o. Barnes, Pacific coast rep
resentative of the Haynes Automoplle
company, has been made happy and,
withal, reminiscent over the receipt of
an invitation from the boosters or a
proposed Mud Larks" association,
about to be formed in the east, of which
Mr. Barnes may become a member be-
cause of his participation many years
ago in very novel race, when racing
had not been reduced to the fine SCI
ence that it is today.
Mr.. Barnes, in 1903, was the New
England representative of the Haynes
car, and was ,one of the entrants in a
race that was run from New York to
Pittsburg, which subsequently proved
to be one of the most remarkable
events ever held on the American con-
tinent. Mr. Barnes entered a two
cylinder 1S-horse power Haynes in the
event, and was sent off by the pistol
in twenty eighth place. At the end OF
the race he was in third place and
Coming" which is a piece of interest
ing history regarding Mr.. Barnes driv-
ing qualities not appreciated, perhaps.
by those who have only known him in
California. Incidentally, the receipt of
the invitation to the Mud Lark" meet
ing has caused Mr.. Barnes to run his
memory back in summing up the
years in which he has been en-
gagged in the automobile field, and he
has made the rather important dis
covery that, despite his still cherubic
face, he is really pioneer in the trade,
having been connected with it for over
ten years.
Has Covered Much Territory
And. still reminiscent, Mr.. Barnes is
able to conjure up many very interest
ing stories during his identification
with the development of the industry
from a baby into giant, not the least
of which is the fact that he has sold
automobiles---and in nearly all cases
Haynes cars-in nearly every state OF
the Union.

The City Council.

The Mayor and Board of Alder
men held an adjourned meeting
last night with all members and
officers present.
Only a few requests were pre-
sented for corrections and changes
in the city assessment roll, which
is copy of the county assessment
roll, SO far as city property is con-
cerned. After a long discussion,
the Board decided to adhere, for
the present, at least, to its original
intention, viz: That, having pre-
viously decided to adopt the county
assessment, as approved by the
Board of Supervisors, it will not
make any changes in the city roll
until such changes have first been
considered and ordered by the
Board of Supervisors.
The law prescribes certain time
within which applications for
changes in assessments are to be
filed and considered by the Board
of Supervisors, and unless made
according to this provision, the
Board cannot legally, at any other
time, consider such complaints and
grant the relief asked for, unless
they come within the list of excep-
tions specifically defined in the
statute. None of the complaints
before the City Council last night
appeared to be clearly embraced in
this list of exceptions.
Deputy State Revenue Agent l..
F. Chiles was present at the meet
ing and reported progress in audit
ing the city's books, and requested
another months time, which was
granted.
The monthly reports of City
Treasurer McNair for January and
February were examined and ap-
proved.
A considerable batch Of miscel-
laneous accounts were also examin-
ed and allowed.
The Board adjourned to meet
again next Tuesday night.

Mr.. Enoch Carruth, Sr., Of Au-
burn, Miss, one of Lincoln coun-
ty's oldest, most respected and
highly esteemed citizens, aged
about 70 years, died at his home
there last Saturday, after a short
illness. Mr.. Carruth was a promi-
nent and substantial planter who
stood deservedly high with all
classes, was a true Christian gen.
tleman in every sense of the word /,
and lived a life of purity and
peace. His like will not soon be
seen again among the walks of
men, he will be missed as few
seldom are. To the sorrowing rel
atives left behind the sincerest
sympathy is rendered them in their
great loss. Summit Sentinel.
Mr.. Carruth was a prominent
and Jealous member of the Metho-
dist church, whose influence for
good in his community can not be
estimated. For 40 years he has
been one of the distinctly represen-

coin. He was a member of the
County School Board and County
Pension Board from District No.
