A 1910 Cadillac Thirty driven
from Buffalo to Manchester. n. H.,
Ivy Frank V. Cooke of Manchester
encountered conditions which make
the trip II noteworthy one.
The 2fl miles between Syracuse,
\. Y, and Springfield, Mass. were
covered In severe rain, which con-
tjnued practically throughout the
entire distance. In crossing Peru
mountain the road from HinsdAle
was taken instead OF the Jacobs
Ladder route, and the car encounter
ed the worst specimen of blue clay
and springy conditions that ever
came under Mr.. Cookies observation.
The road was in such condition that
the day before the Cadillac passed
that way Is horse power car was
mired and had to be. pulled out by
horses.
In crossing Lebanon mountain, be-
tween Albany and Pittsfield, Mass,
nigh speed was maintained, and the
peak was crossed without the gears
being shifted out of high. At no
time during the climb did the speed
chlctcr, Mr. Cooke says, show lower
speed than 20 miles per hour.

various States.
NEW YORK, N. Y, une 5.-"Automo-
bile regulations may come and co." says
S. H. Mera, treasurer OF the American
Motor Car Manufacturers association,
but as the touring season is renewed
each year, the fact is strongly thrust upon
us that no automobile law will ever be
satisfactory and just until the national
federal bill is enacted, making one regis
tratiOn number good in each state.
1T is unquestionably unfair that auto
mobiles in the use of the Interstate high
ways should be obliged to submit to the
diverse state regulations as to registra-
ton and Identification when such state
requirements result in the imposition Of
as many different taxes as there are states
through which the motorist passes.
Under the present automobile regula-
tons there is a necessity sometimes of
procuring new numbers for the car, and
in some cases adding these numbers to
those already in place; In other cases re-
moving all those except the registration
number of the particular state through
which the tourist is passing at the time;
In some states carrying one number, In
others two numbers; in some states paint
ing the number on the machine and In
others having the number attached to
front or rear and, in many cases. to both.
There Is not any question but there
should be some system OF Identification
which shall be uniform and at the same
time effective, The varying requirements
which are now enforced In the various
states throughout the country defeat the
very object Of the state statutes, inasmuch
as they result in confusion instead Of
clear Identification"

NO INTEREST IN ATHENS GAMES
Olympic Committee Makes No Move
TO Get Up n Team.

NEW YORK, N. Y, June 5.-There is
very little talk in international athletic
circles Just now about the Athenian olym-
pic games next spring at Athens, and the
outlook is that IL there are TO be Ameri-
cans at the meet they or their clubs will
have to- bear the expenses. No move has
been made by the Olympic committee here
to get up a team. and this is not to be
wondered at when II is remembered that
they had a hard Job to collect the money
for the trip to England last year and to
Greece In 1906. To resume the game Of
money gathering so soon is not pleasant
to think about, and az the best IL is but
a thankless undertaking. Then again there
will be the regular Olympic fixture in
1912 at Stockholm, and no doubt America
will have a team there, and Its organiza-
ton and preparation will be plenty OF
work for those interested for the next
three years.
Coupled with coming so near last years
big trip, there is another item OF objec-
ton to The Grecian trip, and that is the
extra expense. There is a difference of
about $500 less in sending him to Athens.
In 1906 there was an expense OF about
sl6, 900 for thirty-four men. over fifty men
could be taken to Stockholm for that
amount In discussing the probability of
a trip to Athens next April a member OF
the Olympic committee said:
1T is strange that there isn't a word
from the Greeks about their games next
spring, About a year ago they made a
formal announcement OF the meet and
with practically the same programme as
that of 1905, but nothing has been done
since about the celebration. ! don't know
but the plan has been abandoned, or that
they may want to leave America out of
II, fearing we would win all the prizes,
as we did three years ago. Again, maybe
the bit OF a tiff between England and
America has frightened the Greeks, and
sooner than have a repetition Of the trou-
BILE they gave up the idea of the games.
While l favor Athens as the real loca-
ton OF the games. l am not in favor Of
big teams too often. The parent bodies
OF sport here cannot stand the expense Of
teams abroad and the moneyed men get
tired of being asked too often for sub
scriptions. Once every four years is often
enough to face the task OF collecting about
$4,000.
In my opinion the only place for the
Olympic meet is Athens. and why the
Greeks ever let the fixture get away from
them l can't understand. Had the Olym-
pic been made a permanent thing in the
Stadium every four years nobody could
object to travel to it. for there you had the
great event OF athletics on SITS original foot
hold and with the very atmosphere laden
with history. sentiment and patriotism. OF
course the International Olympic commit
tee had control Of the fixture but If the
Omaha daily bee., 1909-06-06

Greeks after the first revival in 1896 hal
demanded that every olympic meet be held
there it would have been agreed to. The
international committee could rule against
them. but were the Greeks to so ahead and
give their meet as they did in 1906 the
international committee could not keep ath-
letes of the different countries away. The
committee had surely no control over the
athletes of America, or any other country
as far as 1 know. Probably some change
may come over the situation on the APP
proach of winter, but at this present mo-
ment there is but a blue lookout for a
team to Athens, or even the games next
year"

There are chronicled every summer a
long list Of fatal drowning accidents which
plunge thousands into mourning, and the
pity Of it is that a little knowledge Of
Workmanship and ordinary care might
have prevented most Of them. To ignor-
ance or carelessness In entering and leav-
ing a boat or while in e.; to venturing in
open water unprepared, and to neglect Of
the rudlmentary principles of waterman
ship can be traced half the recorded fatal
tiles.
No one should ever take out rowing per
sons who do not know how to swim with
out first ascertaining that the boat is safe
and seaworthy and provided with the nee
essary pRraphernalia for eventualities. 1t
is when one least expects 1t that acct
dents occur, writes L. de b. Handley in
the special vacation number of "Recrea-
ton" and the only way to avoid them
is to be prepared at all times. A stout
bow-line, enough life-preservers to go
around, an anchor, something to bale with
and an extra pair of oars should be car
ried on principle. You may not need them
ninety-nine times of a hundred, but on
that hundredth time they may mean life
or death.
In getting into a boat one should try
to step right into the bottom over the
keel, or II this is too great a reach, on
TO the middle Of the seat and then down.
Stepping on the gunwale has been re-
sponsible for numberless capsizing and It
is a good idea when inexperienced people
are embarking to tax hold Of the boat
and steady It, Enter II possible where

that you will not have 20 turn afterwards.

OWEN MORAN ACROSS THE POND

eide6 to return TO the milder climate of his
native country.

meet me- said Moran, "he has only to
send a cable to that effect and I will be
back again by the next boat" Moran says

evenly as possible, in a small boat, with
slight preference to the stern. II the bow
is buried the least head-swell will flood
the boat, and II the stern is too deep a
following sea may swamp It. In making
a landing one should approach at an angle,
shipping the inward oar a few yards away
and rounding up by backing with the out
ward one. 1t is dangerous to stretch out
over the gunwale to reach for float or
pier. In landing the person in the bow
should be first, taking the bow-line with
him and steadying the boat for the others.
l will not insult the intelligence Of the
reader by advising against rocking the
boat or INDUCING in like idiotic skylark-
Ing. one must be decidedly lacking in
gray matter to choose such pastimes.
There are certain rules about ones be-
havior in a small craft, however, which
should be kept constantly in mind. For
instance, should 1t be necessary for two
people to change places they should keep
we'll over the keel until ready to pass each
other and then standing face to face move
to either side simultaneously that the boat
may not lost its balance. Also, whether
in picking up anything from the water
or in helping a swimme II Is advisable
to use the stern and not the side.
When a boat is capsized do not try to
climb into 1t again. II will sustain you
easily If you just lean on Il, as will any
fair-sized piece OF wreckage like an oar,
a spar, or a board, but attempt to climb
over them and they will surely sink with
you. And speaking about this, when you
are being helped or towed do not hang
onto your rescuer or boat with bent arms,
as this draws the body up and offers
great resistance. OutstTetched arms will
increase your chances Of getting ashore.
