marize the more important ones, as fol-

At the great Wilkes-Barre Pa, hill

spair Mountain, a CHADWICK SIX stock
car (stripped for racing) startled Its COM
petitors and all persons familiar with the
tortuous winding grade, averaging 13 to
23h per cent by simply smothering the
steam racing machine record by margin
of II seconds, and establishing new
record of / minute 3S 2-5 seconds
This same car was Immediately sent TO
Worcester, Mass, where, week later, II
established the gasoline record of SO sec
onds for the steep, rough one-mile run

machines of the country.
One week after this victory CHAD

grade UP Porter Mountain in SO seconds,
defeating by a margin of seconds the
hitherto formidable hill-clmbing compet-
itors right in their home factory city Of

bile owners, that today Diamond
wrapped tread construction is pro-
duced in more types of tires than any
other in the world. AS for instance,
the regular clincher type, the quick
detachable type, the Fisk type and the
Dunlop type, to say nothing OF the
distinctive styles of treads, such as the
grip tread, Bailey tread, ETC.,
An interesting fact not open to ques-
ton is that not one article of def
mite make, which goes to equip an au-
tomobile has participated in more con-
tests, races, endurance runs, transcon-
tinental trips, ETC., than Diamond tires.
They equipped the majority of the cars
in the first endurance run in America
and they have been used more times,
eleven of the fourteen times in trans
continental undertakings. They were
conspicuous In the first Vanderbilt race
in America, and in all subsequent races
form Ormcd Beach to Seattle, and
from Portland, Maine, to Los Angeles.
A striking illustration of the popu-
larity of Diamond tires the country
over came In a recent letter to- the
Diamond Rubber company from
western senator, whose name would be
Immediately recognized If mentioned.
He said: "If / had as many friends,
and as many influential friends, as d.
amond wrapped tread tires, would be
elected president"

WAVERLEYS ARE IN
GREAT FAVOR HERE
Beautiful New 1910 Machines Have
Arrived and Ladies viii Be De-
lighted with Handsomest
Cars Yet Seen

w. A. Evans, agent for the Waverley
Electrics, reports having just received
his first shipment of 1910 machines,
and The Herald man had the pleasure
of seeing these beautiful products of
the builders
The cars are of the Victoria phaeton
type, the finishing and upholstering
being in blue, green, plum and the al
ways fashionable and handsome light
gray, any of which will please milady
of the most fastidious taste. These
cars are of the most luxurious designs
and finish, convenient for calling pur-
poses, shopping, little tours about the
city and for RET e access to the the
aters without the servility of the strap
hanging feat of the cars.
The Waverley cars have several i'm
provements this year which still keep
them in the lead of all electric ma
chimes Among these are longer wheel
base and long, full elliptis springs,
which make the Waverleys the easiest
riding cars to be found on either side
of the Atlantic.
The Waverley is equipped with the
non-arcing controller with the reverse,
ever Just behind the speed control,
which cannot be thrown in the re-
verse or forward, while the power con-
troll lever is on the power point Each
controller is equipped with two Yale
locks, so that the car cannot be used
by any one save the owner unless he
gives the keys to other than himself TO
operate the machine.
The motor is the largest used on this
type Of electric and has 200 per cent
overload capacity, and is suspended
from the body Of the car. The power is
transmitted to the wheels through
gears wholly inclosed and a shaft par
allel with the axle.
Each car has disappearing seat for
third passenger when wanted, and
is wholly out of sight when not in use.
These cars will be equipped with
thirty-cell battery of large capacity
which will run the car fifty to sixty,
seventy to eighty, or ninety to one hum
dred and ten miles on one charge. and
make the speed of the car average
about twenty miles per hour

FIRST AUTO RACE
ON DIAMONDS
INTERESTING SIDE LIGHTS ON
TIRE BUSINESS
Sixteen Sets in One Order Used to
Be Considered a corker-Noth-
ing Unusual Today in
1000 Set Order

Some interesting side lights on the
history of automobile development are
shown in a sketch of the growth of the
Diamond tire business that has lately
been prepared.
The first automobile race in America
was won on Diamond tires. 1t was
held on Long Island, and the winning
machine was built by Mr.. A. l.. Riker,
now of the Locomobile company. These
were particularly the first lot of auto
mobiles made in America. The D1a-
mond Rubber company had equipped
few of the cars of different construc-
tion up to that time as an experiment,
and the success of these tires over the
solid rubber, steel and other tires,
which had been tried, was so pro-
nounced that the demand for the Dia-
mond product grew very rapidly-that
is, rapidly, comparatively. One order
which the Diamond Rubber company
received early in the pioneer days OF
automobiling was for sixteen sets OF
tires, which was considered at that
time a "corker," although today 1t Is
not unusual for an order of three or
four thousand sets of tires to be built
at the Diamond factory.
Although it was for nearly year
that the Diamond company supplied
all the automobile tires made in Amer
lea, the companys product, partly by
reason of the start it obtained, but
more largely because these tires have
from the beginning a very excellent
name, has ever had conspicuous place
in the industry. Just as the builders
of automobiles have made vast I'M
provements since the inception of tho
business, so have the tire makers been
able to profit by their experience from
~eason to season, until today high
grade tires are so much better than
the tires of several years ago that
there can be no comparison.
One way in which the Diamond Rub
ber company has been able to reach
the high place in the trade, which is
everywhere conceded, is by keeping In
close touch with users of their goods
by correspondence, etc, and making
the most careful observations with re-
gard to the work Diamond tires have
done It was in this manner that Dia-
mond wrapped thread tires were devel-
oped, and evils like rim cutting, due
TO the stiff construction or other causes,
aud other things of a like character,
were eliminated. Diamond wrapped
thread tires were the first in America
made by the wrapped process, but this
includes more than merely the wrapped
or open steam method of curing. The
claim is made that the wrapped tread
feature, while important, is only one
of the six distinct points in Diamond
construction, without all of which the
wrapped tread itself possesses no ex-
tensive value.
Such has been the demand for Dia-
nlond tires, however, both from man
ufacturers of automobiles and automo-

the Diamond company, does not say
from what state this strong booster for
Diamond tires halls, but as some
of the national representatives from
California are known to be enthusiastic
motorists, there is little doubt but what
the name is well known If it were made
public.
Continuing, Mr.. Nelson stated: "The
experience of the man is being dupli-
Gated every day right here in Southern
California Our selling records tell us
more conclusively what people think Of
Diamond tires than any other evidence
we can get hold Of"

motor could be built from Lenoir's
specifications that would be practical
for the propulsion of road carriages"
This, however they claimed was inn
possible. Ford then proceeded to hand
them lemon" in the shape of this car
In the public tests the Ford-Lenoir car
performed perfectly and took every hill
on the high gear, though the Selden
attorneys put it up against the worst
there were in Central park New York.
In marked contrast to this perform
ance were the ludicrous attempts to
make the Selden engine run. After
Los Angeles herald., 1909-09-12

several weeks of work it was finally
decided to run on flame ignition four
minutes and ten seconds. On exami-
nation, the Ford attorneys discovered
secret wires in a copper foil in each
corner. After several weeks of work
it was finally decided to run on flame
magnidide four minutes and ten sec
onds. On examination the Ford attor-
neys discovered secret wires and cop
per foil in each cylinder. Ford claims
that Selden's engine will not run on
flame ignition. With the wires re-
moved, the most the Selden motor has
done was to run nine seconds.
