Three big improvements in the Po--

the malodorous notoristy OF which was
on a par with the rock piles fame, Is
being filed in. The blocks OF stone
taken from the knoll are being dumped
into the stagnant waters OF the big
pond, thus making two improvements
with the same stone. The third i'm
provement urged by The Call was the
repaving of the Eighteenth street
bridge at Indiana, which had become
impossible to traffic. On all the i'm
provements work has been started and
because Of this the Potrero district is
rejoicing.
Casey declares the gang OF men will

There is going to be one attraction
at the automobile show across the bay
that viii be worth the trip to see it,
II nothing else interests the visitor
1t will be the great Vanderbilt cup
which was recently won by Harry
Grant in the Alec. This will be the first
time the trophy has left the state of
New York, but Mayor Mott of Oakland,
who is on the show committee of the
exposition to be given at Idora park
has succeeded in getting the holder of
the trophy to allow it to come to the
coast.
This trophy is fast assuming the
position on the land that has been held
on water by the America cup, the blue
ribbon of the sea. Thousands of dol
lars have already been spent by auto
mobile manufacturers in efforts to win
this trophy. The race is no sooner over
than the builders of automobiles COM
mence TO build cars designed to cap
ture it the next year. It is safe to
say that not a day passes when some
work is not being done on Wander
bilt cup candidate.
In the last two years the Automobile
Club of America has been able to put
the cup in a secondary place on it's
racing schedule, but, try as they may,
the public interest can not be won
away from the Vanderbilt cup race to
the grand prize event The Vanderbilt
is OUTLYING all attempts to down it.
1t may be appreciated how fortunate
the Oakland show is in being able to
bring the cup to the coast. if only to
be seen.
