Crown Point, in Indiana,
Goes Stark, Staring Mad
Special Dispatch to The Star.


GROWN POINT. Ind. June IS
With the demon drivers tucked in
early beds the racing cars newly furnish
ed and closely watched. the Illinois SOL
dery camped at the roadside and every
thoroughfare leading into Crown Point
thronged with nocturnal automobile par
ties, the managers announced at O'Clock
this morning that all is In readiness for
the Indiana motor cup races today and
tomorrow.
Out along the racing course the mothers
have counted their children, the farmers
hav, herded the pigs in the back lot and
mended the chicken yard fence and 9TH
erwise battened down and made taut all
the property, that stands in danger OF
being carried away in the terrific on
rush of the armored demons in their steel
devil carts
AT midnight Crown Point went stark,
staring mad with the thrush of motor
cars, which II Is estimated will number
1900 before the big event is over. The
road to Chicago as far as the eye could
reach presented line of rapidly moving
automobile lamps in perspective, which
from s o'clock on suffered no break IN
continuity. The honk-honk of horns
awoke The chickens In the farmyards and
the growing Of chanticleers sounded at
untimely hours in the darkness.
Streets Jammed With Cars.
The streets of Crown Point arc jammed
With cars from one end OF town to the
other, even the side streets being filled.
Progress is rendered difficult and hazard
GUS Whole camps of autosts are living
under tents on lawns and In groves on the
outskirts of the town. and whizzinS auto
mobiles on the hard roads passed close to
shapely ankles and fIlmy hosiery care
lessy exposed to the night air from un-
der the folds Of arm. blankets.
In case of accident soldiers Will hold
back the crowd and Red Cross physicians
and ambulance men will rush to the spot,
while from one of the nineteen telegraph
ard telephone stations the information
Will be communicated To the great thronA
al the starting point.
The roads of the racing course We're
closed at : O'Clock this morning, after
which time spectators in automobiles and
other conveyances and afoot reached
their respective viewpoints by designated
reads and the viaducts built across the
course III Crown Point

In the thick smoke Nash did not
at first notice the fall OF his chief
Then his foot struck the engineers
body Instantly he understood. He
stopped and pulled Maclean away
from the hot fire-door The train
was now moving. but very slowly.
Climbing blindly up on the en-
gineer's vacant seat, the fireman
found the levers and waited. There
was nothing he could do to hurry
matters. 1t would be three minutes,
at least. before the locomotive would
emerge into the open, Could he last
so long7
Ought Ought Ought The thun.
derous pung echoed through the tun-
nell Little by little the train crept
back. through the splashing water.
Nash swayed unsteadily, but still
grlpped the handles. To his swim
ming head the seconds seemed min
utes, the minutes hours. He had
never been in so hard a place before
Every pun of the laborlng engine
added to the sooty clouds that rolled
in through the open windows, warm
thick and sickening.
Puff Puff Puff. Their speed
was increasing. He looked back,
hoping to see light from the entrance,
but It was still absolutely dark.
The fireman's head was splitting.
In his ears sounded a roaring not al
together of the train. The pitchy
blackness was starred with dancing
yellow lights. Even the hard steel
lever-handles lost form and sub.
stance. grew soft. and seemed to slip
away.
The water now barely covered the
track. but he was too far gone to no.
tice this. A deep rumbling monotone
possessed his brain. Through the
blackness behind him a dim light
began to shine. Brighter and bright
er it grew. They were approaching
the entrance.
Nash's endurance was now meas.
ured by seconds. With all his reso.
luton he fought of approaching in.
sensibility. He had almost forgotten
where be was or what he was doing.
Suddenly binding glare envel-
oped him. A draft of air, hot and
fairly fresh, swept through the cab.
The fireman realized that at last they
were outside the tunnel, and that he
must stop the train. With a final
effort he shut the throttle and pushed
the lever ahead. Then unconscious
ness came. His limbs gave way, and
he fell insensible on the body of the
engineer.-Scottish American.

The United States Army is fortify-
/ ing the city of Honolulu. Hawaii, and
the extinct crater of the great Dia-
mond Head volcano is the centre of
the operations. This crater lies to
the east of the city. and its bowl,
some twenty acres in area, is enclosed
by abrupt cliffs from fifty to two hun
dred feet in height. Through this
rim of cliffs. on the side farthest from
the ocean. our army engineers are
boring two large tunnels which lead
from the great twelve-inch mortar
batteries on the outer slope to the
great cavity within the old volcano.
Inside the mountain will be con-
structed ammunition magazines which
should be exceptionally secure from
chance of explosion. Erosion has de-
posted a layer of about six feet of
earth over the floor of the crater.
while a small lake forms at one side
during the greater part of the year.
Probably barracks for troops will be
built in this enclosure, and a garden
to furnish an adequate supply of veg
etables for the soldiers might easily
be planted in the fertile soil
The strength of this novel scheme
of Notifications may be recognized
when we realize that the Diamond
Head stands between the batteries
and the sea, and would render effec-
tive battleship fire in an attack al
most impossible Since the mortars
simply drop their shells upon the OBJ
ieet of attack. the necessity of firing
over the mountain does not interfere
in the slightest with their accuracy,
Electric indicators situated at some
suitable point of observation will di-
rect the aiming of the mortars.-Har-
per's Weekly.

a LAUNDERING BEGGAR.


Every man to his trade" said
Mr.. Phlilthlilbly. 1T isn't for the
carpenter to show the mason how TO
lay brick, nor for the paperhanger
to show the blacksmith how to shoe
horses; let the shoemaker stick to
his last; and yet it might easily be
that any of us could give to men of
quite different callings pointers that
would be valuable to them.
For illustration, might not be
able to beg. but could and did give
yesterday to a beggar a helpful hint.
He hadn't had anything to eat for
four days. he said. and would please
give him a nickel Sad his mien
was, and shabby his apparel. and his
manner was detected and mournful;
a beggar artistic and capable; but he
had overlooked one small detail.
there was waited on his words as he
told his tale. the scent of that odorous
vegetable, the onion.
Now. you know, this is a scent
that remains with us commonly not
more than thirty-six hours, and never
more than two days; and he had said
be hadn't had anything to eat for
four, and pointed out to him as
gently as | could this flaw in his
story. and he willingly corrected It;
he said he hadn't meant four days,
he meant two, but he said he didn't
get half enough then.
SO l gave him the desired nickel:
but hope he took my hint to heart.
the Significance of it being that a
man out begging on the hungry lay
should never eat onions
ut is in so many ways and of
many things. man may easily find
faults in things that he could not
produce. You remember the
familiar story OF the tailor and the
sculptor? The tailor couldn't sculp
at all; but he could point out to the
sculptor the error In the number of
buttons on the sculptored coat I
couldn't beg, but l could point to the
beggar that trivial and yet in effect
important oversight.
Every man to his trade, but II we
can't all be creators of all things
we can all be critics in way
