MEYER FAVORS TWO DRY
DOCKS FOR THE PACIFIC
Changes Predicted at Mare ISL
and-PIanS for Naval Base
at Panama Canal

WASHINGTON, Nov 6-Back from
an inspection that extended over 10, ,693
miles, Secretary Of the Navy Meyer
reached Washington today. He con-
ferrcd with President Taft and de
parted in the afternoon for Massachu-
setts, where he will vote Tuesday.
Meantime he announced that there
were too many navy yards on the At
lantic and Gulf coasts and that he
expected to make some changes in the
work Of the Mare Island navy yard.
Secretary Meyer favors having Off
cially one navy yard on the gulf coast,
this to be supplementary to Guantan-
amO and to the Panama Notifications.
There is no intention to establish a
basis on the Isthmus, nor is there any
intention Of placing the construction
and pay corps in the line of the navy.
While declining to indicate what
navy yards were to be abolished, he
admitted that on the Pacific coast he
favored establishing two drydocks.
These will be within easy reach of
San Francisco.

SAVANNAH, Ga, Nov. Cover a
course, probably the fastest and best
of its kind in this country, with state
militia to keep it clear of distractions,
the second American grand prix will
be run over the roads of Chatham
county, November u.
1t will be the longest road race ever
run in America.
Practice runs already indicate that
the American road record of 69.6 miles
an hour, made by Chevrolet at River
head, l.. l., is in danger Better than
70 miles an hour has been clocked on
a single lap of the 17.3 mile course, while
much higher speed has been main
tanned on the three almost straight
stretches which form the major por-
tion of the track.
The present course is nearly eight
miles shorter than that of the 1908
race, the turns are fewer, the straight
aways longer, and the total distance
for the race about ten miles greater
The start and finish is four mile
straightaway track inside the city
limits, where grandstand with a seat
ing capacity of 10000 has been erected.
over the same course on November
II, the day before the big race, two
light car races will be run, one at 176
miles, the other at 259 miles. The first
is for the Tideman cup, named in
honor of Mayor Tideman of Savannah,
and a prize of $1,000, and is open to
cars of 161 to 23O cubic inches piston
displacement. The second is for the
Savannah challenge trophy and $1,000
cash, and is open to cars of 231 to 800
cubic inches. Both races are sections
of the international light car race, the
first running of which was won by
Robert Hilliard in November, 1908,

SPORT ON HORSES
DELIGHTS CROWDS
Hundred Riders Participate in
Thrilling Tournament Near
EaStIake Park

Success. both in a financial way and
as an entertainment, marked the
Tournament of Equestrian Sports held
at the Indian Village near Eastlake
park yesterday afternoon. one nun
dred riders participated in the enter
tainment, beside number OF other
i horsemen and enthusiasts who Joined
in the cavalcade. but did not enter the
contests.
Probably the most exciting feature
of the afternoon was the game of
pushball played on horseback between
the Pasadena polo team and Los AM
geles horsemen. The local men were
handicapped by the fact that they,
as well as their horses, were unfamil-
lar with the game and played under
difficulty. There were a number of
near accidents by the horses falling,
but no serious injuries were reported.
The third period was called by the
Los Angeles men in favor of the Pas
auena players.
The potato race was also notable
feature. There were twelve contest
ants and their efforts to carry potatoes
from one box to another on sharpeped
sticks with their horses going at a
rapid gait and with the opponents try
ing to prevent, formed most ex
citing as we'll as a dangerous sport.
D. F.. Hogan was awarded first honor
by winning ten points, and Mrs. Dell
Blanchart was given second. Mrs.
Blanchart is considered the champion
woman bronco rider of the world. Her
feats were heartily applauded by the
spec 'ators.
In the five-gaited saddle horse con-
test Muggins, owned by R. H. Martin,
was given first place. IA. I. Hewitt
was the rider Standard, owned by
Miss Everett, and ridden by e. T.
Hewett, was awarded the second rib
bon, and Vibright, owned and ridden
by J. L. Markwell, was given third.
An idea of the life and sports OF
The cowboys was provided by the rop'ng
and rough riding contests. In this
Dell Blanchart was given first prize.
In the costume race George Roberts
was awarded the honors.
The tourney was brought about by
the Pasadena Polo club, the Out West
club, Vaquero club the Los Angeles
Driving club and the Hollywood Rid
ing club All the other sporting clubs
Of the city were invited and a number
participated.

and the health and prosperous we'll
being of our communities throughout
this land and in our possessions be-

These blessings have not descended
upon us in restricted measure, but
overflow and abound. They are the
blessings and bounty of God.
We continue to be at peace with the
rest of the world. In all essential mat
ters our relations with other peoples
are harmonious with an ever-growing
reality Of friendliness and depth of
recognition of mutual dependence. 1t
is especially to be noted that during
the last year great progress has been
achieved in the cause of arbitration and
disputes
Now, therefore, I, William Howard

America, in accordance with the wise
custom of the civil magistrates since
the foundation of this government,
do appoint Thursday, November "a,
1910. as a day of national Thanksgiving
and prayer, enjoining the people upon
that day to meet in their churches for
the praise of Almighty God, and to re-
turn heartfelt thanks to Him for all
His goodness and loving kindness.
In witness whereof. have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal Of
the United States to be affixed
Done at the city of Washington, this,
the fifth day of November, in the year
of our Lord one thousand nine hun
dred and ten, and of the independence
of the United States the one hundred
and thirty-fifth.

1t was learned that the Knox had
lost four hours at Dos Palmas and had
turned back. The Maxwell stopped
with carbureter trouble at Mecca and
was out of the race.
The Abbott-Detroit car is the only
one which met with serious mishap.
Four miles out of Beaumont, Cal,
$50 miles from Los Angeles, the car
skidded at q turn and Al Berry, the
mechaniCian, was thrown out and rem

Phoenix. Speigel gave up the race.
What has happened to the Rambler

possible that one or both of them may
pull in during the night. However,
they would be out of the race, even if
they made it to the river
The experiences of the drivers across
the desert are varied. MANY of the
roads were merely deep sand Near
Mecca some of the cars took the rail-
road track and ran ten miles along
the right of way.
Along the route huge bonfires had
been built to light the racers on their
way.
At Mecca the Pope Hartford failed
to take the turn and tore madly into
the sagebrush along the roadside. The
machine came to a full stop, but backed
out of the brush uninjured.
Gasoline was stored along the way
for the several cars which might run
