400 TO TOUR TWO
STATES IN AUTOS
One Hundred Machines win Be
Entered in Reliability Run
from st. Louis
CONTEST TO LAST TWO DAYS
Buick Motor Car to Go on Path
finding Run and Make
Log of the Route

The contest committee of the ST.
Louis Automobile Manufacturers and
Dealers association has decided on the
route of the three days reliability run
which will take place the last week in
June. While the committee did not
positively announce the route, it was
thought that it will be up through Mis-
souri, and Louisiana and Hannibal and
Mexico. and from there across the
river into Illinois. where, through
Quincy and Springfield, the tour will
return to St Louis.
1t is thought best to have the run
start on Tuesday June 2S, and get
back to ST Louis Thursday, June 30.
From present indications, it Is
thought probable that there will be at
least 100 entries. In fact. there are
certain to be that many, because there
are now 102 makes of cars represented
in st. Louis, and some of tine agents
have said that thew will put TWO or
three cars in, which will make up for
the few who will not have cars in the
run.
The contest committee will arrange
for the starting of the pathfinder
Buick car some time during the com
ing week Ralph Delaney will drive
this car. and with him will go some
representative of the contest commit
tee, C. w. Foland and a mechanic.
A log will be kept of routes and road
conditions and on this the committee
will base its final decision as to route.
Entry blanks for the contest will
probably not be sent out until after
the pilot car gets back from it's trip.
BY that time a sanction from the
American Automobile association will
probably have been received. All the
towns along the route will be notified
of the coming of the tour so that
warm receptions may be expected by
the 400 men who will be in the tour.

Indianapolis motor speedway May 27
and 2S and the national championship
meet to be held Memorial day, May
80, 1910.
This will be the opening of the speed

arc beginning to take notice of racing,
now that the season is we'll under way.
More than twenty racing cars made
in Indianapolis are daily practicing on
tho course. The Marmon team of seven
cars, the National team of six racing
cars, the Marion team of two special
stock chassis speedsters, the Cole team
of two cars, the Empire with two cars

operate their own cars. The air about
the Hoosier town Is charged with rae
ing, so that over twenty-five cars can
be entered from among the local ranks.
Eddie Hearne of Chicago was the first
entrant at the speedway meet. He en-
tered a f. I. A. T. stock chassis in the
Wheeler -Schebler and the short sprint
events during the first two days, and
entered with the chairman of the racing
board for the championships. Hearne
also entered a Hupmobile in the small

pears as though the record of sixty cars
entered at the last speedway meet,
which was the greatest number of cars
ever entered at any meet ever held
in the world, will be broken.

1853 BUICK AUTOS
BOUGHT BY AGENT
Freight Train of az Cars Bringing
ReCord-Breaking Ship
ment Here
NEARLY $25O,0o0 INVOLVED
Howard, Local Buyer, Now Trying
to Solve Conundrum of
Storage
NEARLY $25o,0o0 INVOLVED

One of the most sensational ship
ments of automobiles ever made to the
Pacific coast is being made at the
present time. 1t is a solid train of
forty-one freight carloads of Buick
cars running Especial" over the Santa
Fe railway, en- route to this city.
When Charles S. Howard was in
Los Angeles some three or four weeks
ago there was a merry twinkle in his
eyes, as much as to say, Keep your
eyes open, kid, and you'll see some
thing doing" and with his customary
pleasant smile he tossed his suitcase
into the tonneau of a Buick awaiting
him at the door and he was off to the
station to board the train for the east.
The factory of the Buick automo-
bile plant was his objective point and
when he entered the building and
looked into tine face of w. G. Durant,
head of the General Motors company,
of which the Buick Is the leading fac
tory, he Informed that gentleman that
he was there to do some business, and
the principal part of that business was
to get cars-cars-cars.
He bought 1863 Buick automobiles of
various models, from the modest sur
rey of the White Streak to the hand
some big five and seven-passenger
touring cars and roadsters.
Arrangements were then made i'm
mediately with the Santa Fe railroad
for special train of fortytwo freight
cars to make the shipment all at one
time and to be given special fast
schedule through 20 Los Angeles.
Some conception of What this ship
ment means may be conceived when
the total value of the shipment is
given. Attached to the train is car
load of Buick oil valued at $1,000 and
with the automobiles the total ship
ment amounts to $239, ,780=close to a
quarter of a million dollars, and
makes this the record shipment of
automobiles ever sent to any one point
in the United States. The best pre-
vious record for a single shipment of
Bucks was a train of thirty one cars
forwarded to Philadelphia some time
ago, and now the east must lift the
the west-Los Angeles.
Traffic Agent Glasgow of the Santa
Fe automobile department is keeping
close tabs on the Howard Buick "spe-
cial" and had advices that the forty
two-car train passed Kansas City Fri
day morning at 5 O'Clock and will be
due in Los Angeles Wednesday or
Thursday of this week.
Frank Howard, manager of the local
agency for the Bucks, says, "It is all
we'll enough to buy trainloads of au-
tomobiles," and then looks about and
wonders where in the world he is
going to put them.

DO NOT LET FEAR OF
TIRE TROUBLE STOP YOU

1.-THE fear of possible tire trouble
should never prevent the motorist from
getting the full measure of service and
enjoyment a car can give, says
James A. Braden. at is true. no
doubt, that this very thing detracts
from the enjoyment of motoring in
many cases. Nevertheless, it is en-
tirely uncalled for if good tires and
of ample size for the load are selected
in the first place, and given the right
kind of care, including sufficient in
flation. The automobile owner should
not consider the tires as indestructible,
but neither need he suppose that hard
work and lots of 1t is not expected of

WILD BILL WILL
SPEED EN- AGAIN
Reuss to Be Among Daring Driv-
erS in Big Mt. BaIdy
Climb
ENTRANCE FEE TO BE $1,000
At Least Five Cars viii Battle for
Trophy-AII Fast Hill
Climbers

Wild Bill Reuss is something more
of the local automobile racing game,
and is always willing to back his judg-
ment with his money.
Incidentally Bill has a hobby-the
Mt. Badly race-which has been run
conseoutively every third Sunday in
September for four years, and is actu-
ally going to be run again this year on
the same date.
Maybe the lord high executioners"
on the Licensed Dealers association
have their axes whetted to throttle or
decapitate the intrepid Bill this year,
or else their published date for the San
ia Monica road race on September 3
would not have tried to forestall this
great race over dangerous mountain
passes and to corral all the publicity.
While admitting both are great rae
ing events, the interim between the two
meets is not altogether to the liking Of
the public, but as the press mas not
been taken into the confidence of the
gentlemen sponsors of the prior event,
criticism at this time is not in order.
The Mt. Baldy race is a certainty,
and the $1,000 entrance fee for compet-
ing cars will not be cut the price or
postage stamp. the risk in racing is
and real mazuma speaks an owners
confidence in his car more loudly than
words.
1t is almost a foregone conclusion
now that there will be at least five
cars entered in the Mount Baldy race
on the terms proposed by Mr.. Reuss.
Colonel Fenner is the first to come
through with his entry, and true to
that gentlemans sporting instinct his
nomination for the race is the Pope
Hartford.
But there is another car with a hy-
phenated name that Is likely to annex
all that goes to the winner, and while
the name isn't Gee Whlzz, that IS
the exclamation some enthusiast made
wien this car won the recent 45-mile
race at Coalinga.
Another car owner up north has an
idea that he also can win. and he is
no four-fiusher. either. So 1t looks
very much as if there are to be some
real live wires in the Mount Baldy
contest.
The following letters have been ex-
changed between Mr.. Reuss and Col
onel Fenner relative to the proposed
race:
'Mr. w. r. Reuss. Dear Sir: In view
of the showing you made in the Baby
race last year, l desire to say that
when the race is pulled off this year
L
: streak of good luck if I am permitted
to back you and the Pope-Hartford car
this year and have your car entered in
my name. You have my permission to
do this if satisfactory to you.
yours truly,
IF. c. FENNER."
"Mr Fred G. Fenner, Dear Sir: /
have your letter requesting that nom
mate the Pope Hartford car for the
Baldy race and note that you say you
consider 1t an honor. I can assure
you that the honor is all mine and
am only too glad to say that you
may nominate the Hartford and man
age it in any race you see fit.
THE Pope Hartford will win the race
this year as easily as 1t did last, but
the noise makers who have talked so
much about racir~ in the past will
have to come through with the coin of
the realm in order to race us.
Yours truly,
stWITJIAM r RETJSS"

Such was the demand for Autoline
for automobile fuel recently that Gen
eral Manager Parker of the United OIL
refneries was compelled to curtail the
taking of orders from any but regular
patrons of the refineries. With later
improvements just completed that will
give an enormous increase in the out

moved. and orders are. now being taken

RETURN OF JUDGE KENT

HIS FREQUENT MEETINGS WITH
 PRESIDENT TAFT.
The Latter's SoIicitude Regarding the
 Next Step of Arizona.

Judge Kent returned yesterday morning from his vacation in the east which was somewhat shortened by his having to return for the election The greater part of the summer was spent by Judge Kent at North Ip- sWich N. IT, where he and his brother had taken a cottage for the summer. After a short stay there he went to Moosehead lake on a hunting and fishing trip.
 Before settling down for his vaca- ton Judge Kent attended the annual reunion of the Harvard Law assOcia- ton and attended the commencement exercises of the university. There he met Colonel Roosevelt who mani fested a great interest in the territory on the evening Of it's admission to statehood and he obtained a promise from the colonel that he would visit Arizona in March in the course of a tour of the Pacific coast. Among others met by the judge at Harvard was Attorney General Wickersham and Governor Hughes of New York with whom he had formerly shared offices

JEWELS SIGNED UP
 FOR PAIR OF GAMES
Mexican Maroons Friday and SoutF
 Side Team Sunday Afternoon.

The Jewels, over whose destinies Bill Alvord presides, have two games ahead. They are going to play at Eastlake park Friday and Sunday. Friday they will meet the Mexican Maroons and Sunday a south side az gregation including such stars as Williams, Cuber ad Morris.
 As Friday is the sixteenth of Sep tember and the anniversary of Mexi- can independence the Maroons were looking around for a game on that day and decided to take on the Jewels. The Maroons are pretty husky bunch of ball players themselves and are likely to give Alvord's bunch some trouble, though the fans are betting against them.
 Alvord thinks the Jewels can win over the Maroons but he is not so sure about that south side bunch Ernie Williams is a crackerjaek of a twirler. as local fans are we'll aware, and Morris is reputed to be the best backstOp around in these parts. But with Brisbois behind the bat and Parks, Finley or Dyer on the slab the Jewels will be well prepared to meet anything the south side can send oyer
 The games of last Saturday and Sunday with Florence have aroused great interest in baseball among the local sports and it looks like a long and successful season is ahead

Judge Kent made several trips to Gloucester, Mass, where he was the guest of John Hays Hammond who has a sumer home there. On three occasions he met President Taft who had come to play golf with Mir Ham mond who is only little less an en- thusiast than the president himself
 The judge had several talks with the president regarding Arizona. The president was quite sOlicitOus about it and said that he hoped that the territory would present to him and congress a sane constitution. He felt a special interest in Arizona on ac- count of the effort he had been ob- Hged to make to secure the passage of the enabling act.
 Regarding the political outlook throughout the country, Judge Kent said that while there would undoubt- edIy be a falling of republican ma iOrities, he did not believe that the country would go democratic.

MURDER NEAR BUCKEYE THREATENED LYNCHIkG APPEAL FOR HELP TO SHERlFF'S
 OFFICE. Slayer C. D. Thomas, the Victim Mau-
 TO Murietta.

A telephone message from Deputy l Sheriff Keane at Buckeye was received
 at the office of the sheriff yesterday saying that a murder had been com | mitted, that the murderer was in the temporary jail there and that the | structure was surrounded by al mob ot 1 MeXicanS determined to lynch him. The deputy sheriff wanted an off,
 cer to come at once and bring the man here for safe keeping.
 The killing took place at John Amb- roses mine in the White Tanks noun tains. The slayer is C. D. Thomas. a prospector, and the victim was Mauro 1 Murietta, q well-knOwn Mexican of the Buckeye country.
 From what could be learned, the trouble grew out of the theft of a burro belonging to Thomas. He accused Mu- rietta of stealing it and in company with man named Gotch h. set out in search of the Mexican. On their ap- proach the Mexican ran but was stopped by a shot from a rifle in the hands of Thomas. The bullet lodged in his heel What happened afterward is told by Thomas and GOoch. They said that when they came up the Mexican tried to seize the rifle in the hands of Thomas and in the struggle that en- sued the weapon was discharged into the abdomen of the Mexican
 Whether Thomas gave himself up or was captured was not stated, but he was lodged in jail in a short time It was intended to hold his preliminary examination before the justice of the peace of that precinct, but when the MeXicans of the vicinity began to con gregate about the jail in a threatening manner, the deputy telephoned to Phoenix for relief The train from Buckeye to Phoenix had already gone
 It was not believed at the sheriffs office that the MeXicans would go to the extent of lynching, but the sheriff kept in communication witht the depu- ty, who later in the afternoon said that the crown about
 break up. He feared though that it would form again after dark.
 After Thomas had been locked up he began to act like an insane man and kept growing worse until finally he set fire to his cot Not a great deal could be learned of Thomas, but t is said that he lives near Bisbee.
 The sheriffs office sent an auto to Buckeye and the prisoner was brought to Phoenix late last night.

MAY BE 4 BEND IN SECOND AVENUE LINE
Property Owners Protest and It Must Angle West Three Blocks on
 Bennett Lane.

Owing to the protest of Second ave nue property owners, it is unlikely that the new line the Phoenix Street Rail way company is now constructing will extend farther up that thoroughfarc than Bennett Lane. At that point the line will switch westward to Fifth ave- nue anda again go north.
 We are not yet certain whether we will go straight out Second avenue or adopt some other route from that point" said Manager $. II. Mitchell of the railway company last night. We would rather go out Second avenue, of course, and still hope to be able to do so"
 But owners of property on that ave nue, north of Bennett Lane, say that they will not permit this and will ap- ply for injunctions to prevent the com pany carrying out its original inten- tion.
 The company's franchise gives it the right to law track on any street in Phoenix. This franchise, however, was granted before Bennett addition was taken into the municipal corporation. When Bennett addition was annexed, one of the conditions was that the owners of property therein should eX- ercise control over the streets. There fore they claim that the cOmpany's franchise does not apply to Bennett addition and they will fight any at tempt of either the city or the street railway company to put their streets to uses of which they do not approve. And they do not want a street car line up Second avenue, claiming that it will destroy the avenues beauty and be a noisy nuisance during the night.
 Bennett addition property owners al- so exercise control over the north half of Bennett Lane, and if the new line is angled west on that street it will have to be on the south half which is owned by the city.

REPUBLICAN, MORNING

Germans found an enormous nugget in the London range, as the mountains lying between Christmas and Troy are called. This nugget weighed twenty three ounces and was one of the larg- est ever picked up in this territory. In appearance it was exactly like the smaller one found by MT Phillips men.
 Following the discovery of the Ger mans, MT. Phillips put his Mexicans in to the field and has kept them at work ever since. Besides paying them regu- lar wages he allows them half of what they find. As he has perfect confi- dence in their honesty he had no hesi- tation in making this kind of a deal with them. They have discovered q number of nuggets and MT. Phillips share has cost him about three times their intrinsic value, but he hopes that some day the MeXicans will stumble upon the ledge from which all the mug gets came.
 The nugget found last week lay about a mile east of where the Ger mans found their big chunk of gold. It is nothing more than a lot of gold wire twisted together. The nugget is scarcely worn, indicating that it had not been carried far from the place where it was washed from tha rocks
 My MeXicans have found nothing to get excited Over," said MT. Phillips yesterday. Tt is a certainly. however, that there is big gold ledge some where in that region and l am risking a little money upon the chance of find ing it."

SELECTION OF FOODS.

Many housekeepers who pride them
selves on their knowledge of the cuts
of meat and can tell at a glance the
hardy old farmyard veteran from the
juicy young broiler, fall down COM
pletely when choosing fruits and vege-
tables Berries which looked well in
the market prove fiat, stale and I'M
profitable. Melons and cucumbers
CstWardly attractive were only skin
deep In good looks. Oranges and grape
fruit are frequently overripe and
peaches green. The wise selection of
fruit Is not learned in day nor with
one lesson. For the beginner there
are few points, which if observed
Will make the chances better of get
ting what one pays for and teach one
how to tell the good from the bad.
The two chief tests are weight and
fgararnce. Ripe fruit has a fresh,
sweet odor which is easily recognized.
Fragrance is the best test to give to
berries, as those without that delicate
aroma should be regarded with sus-
picion. This Is also true of lemons,
oranges, peaches, pears, and especial.
ly of cantelopes.
When buying oranges, grapefruit
and melons, weight is the important
item; If light in weight, beware of
them, they will either be pithy or I'M
ripe. If melons are spongy to the
touch they are either unripe or stale.
Cucumbers should never be purchased
If spongy.
In selecting muskmelons the sweet
est ones have rough rind The
smooth streaks which divide the fruit
into sections should be yellowish.
