.PATHF|NDER'S WAY r:- q
ROUGH IN MEXICO
Motorists Lived Two Days ON Pea
Soup and Rusty Coffee. 40

Torreon, Mexico, May 27-SpeciaI
Correspondence of The Republican,
No previous mud bucking, sand wad-
ing or stump buckling tests can
| compare with the recent trials Of the
faithful little Chalmers-Detroit' car in
| the sands of old Mexico This car
has already covered $4,000 miles in
| endurance runs. The party of the
Pathfinders who are blazing the
way for the Flag to Flag contest for
the Wahlgreen trophy have now
made 1856 miles of the way from
Denver to the City of Mexico.
When the explorers reached Tor
reon they had covered 435 miles over
the Mexican border. They are now
making the longest and hardest lap
of the trip over 1900 miles of Mexi-
can desert. They stopped over here
one day to employ guides for the re-
mainder of the journey. The way in
to FL Paso was practically easy 60
ing with the exception of one days
hard driving. Since then their path
has not been strewn with roses and
its significance to the members of
the party as a pleasure trip has
paled on the vista of the sandy Mex
lean desert. The plucky little car
fought through driving sand storms,
often sinking to the hubs. The men
repeatedly had to get out of the
car to cut sage brush from the roads
which had never been traversed by
an automobile
The trip from Denver to Ell Paso
had many pleasant features. Shoot
ing was fine and men dropped prairie
game from the car seats The scene
cry was an added pleasure as the
mountain tops were always visible.
The crew left Denver with flying
banners and with the good word Of
the governor of the state and the
populace. The course was over level
plains which the car covered at a
twenty-mile clip.
The ovation at Denver was repeat
ed at FL Paso, but this ovation was
soon forgotten in the trials of the
desert The greatest welcoming was
when the car drew up before the
Hotel Sheldon at FL Paso. The Path
finding crew was met twenty-five
miles out by a number of other cars.
The crew was entertained handsome
ly and a dinner was given them at
the country club by enthusiastic mo-
florists.
The thrilling experiences of the
trip began after the car left Ell
Paso. One hundred and twelve miles
out the car stuck hopelessly in the
desert sandsRnd the block and tackle
which the car carried for emergency
purposes was unable to pull them
out. Being forty-six miles from the
railroad. it was necessary for them
to camp there, and two of the men
walked back to the railroad, a dis
lance of over forty-six miles to
catch a Mexican Central train into
FL Paso. 80 -

The woman wiped her tears. and
there was feeling of suifocation as
she let memory bring up the events.

after while. How time does fly! l

There was a son and daughter. All.

:: le0sn .fUr;.Stockmen and
Farmers.
II Is estimated that the value OF .he
live stock that will be on exhibition at
the National Stock Show at Denver
during the week OF January s-15. will
be in excess of 100000. The show
will be the greatest exhibition Of live
stock ever seen west Of Chicago and
will be far ahead OF any OF the previ-
GUS exhibitions given by the Western
Stock Show Association. The railroads
have made low rate of fare from all
points in the West and a large attend
ance is expected. The horse show fea-
ture. every evening will attract the
Denver people in large numbers and 1t
10 expected that the attendance at the
show for the week will exceed 10O, 900.
The association has determined to
make only a nominal charge for admts-
sion. 25 cents general admission. with
an additional charge Of 20 cents for
seats at night. This will not result in
enough money. to pay the cost. but 1t
is the desire to popularize the show.
The show 10 not intended as q
money making affair."" said General
Manager Skinner. We expect our
profit in the increased knowledge con-
cerning modern methods OF growing
and feeding live stock. Through this
show we can impress upon all the
people The Importance of the live
stock industry to the West and
through 1t we can also distribute
among the western breeders some OF
the choicest blood for breeding. This
is the fifth Of these annual shows and
ali eady we can see great improve
ment which has resulted ffrom the
four shows that have preceded. We
want all the farmers and stockmen OF
the West to attend this show and we
feel certain each will secure some ex'
ceedingly valuable knowledge by At
tending"
One of the features of show week
will be the public sales OF pure bred
cattle under the auspices OF the ma
ticnal breed associations. The Here
ford Association will sell on Tuesday.
January IL: on Wednesday the Short.
horn Association will sell fifty head.
and on Thursday the Aberdeen-Angus
Association will sell fifty head. These
cattle are all selected by committees
from the best herds in the country
and each animal is guaranteed by the
association and is sold without reyerys
AZ the highest bid. II is an opportu-
nifty for the breeders OF the West to
secure the very choicest blood at rca-
sonable prices and It In hoped that
tho offerings will be distributed widely
over the West where they will do
the most good.

One of the interesting reports sub.

committee, which asks permission
further to consider this subject for
report to the next assembly, calls at.

of the bar associations OF the United
