STILL. At OUTS WITH COT
oNEL ROOSEVELT.

ton is now given, out which bears
upon the absence last night of Judge

rectness Of the views he had publicly
expressed at Concord. n. H., and to
insist that he had right to comment
on the opinions of Judge Baldwin, 50
long as the judge was himself on the
stump as a candidate for office and
not on the bench as jurist.

CROSS-C(IUNTRY RUN.
BY AUTOMOBILE
FROM NEW YORK TO FRISCO
PARTY BATTLES WITH
WIND AND STORM.

After being practically lost in the
mountains 25 miles south of Tuscum-'
bia. Ala, for 20 hours. and later bat.
Ting with the worst storm this Sec
tion of Alabama has experienced this
winter. the four automobilists who
left New York on November . in the
pathfinding car for San Francisco,
reached Tuscumbia late at night De-
cember 5, thoroughly exhausted. The
journey between Courtland, a short
distance from which the AUTOMOBILE
lists had their first experience at real
pathfinding, and Tuseumhia, was over
a road covered by two feet of water
for miles, and most Of the way the
wheel hubs and footboard of the Ohio
car We're under water. The heavy
rain which has been falling for the
past "a hours brought communication
between towns in this section to a
standtsill.
The troubles of the pathfinding au-.
tomobilists, r. L. Ferguson, of the
American Automobile association;
Guy w. Fnney, representing the Ohio
Motor Car company; Charles Thatcher
and Fred d. Clark, drivers, began 3s
miles from Culman. Ala They started
ostensibly for Decatur after a COM
paratiyely fast run from Birmingham;
but they never reached that place.
Five miles from Culman they become
confused in the darkness, and, after
driving for hours over the mountain
rx,sfh IN q,
realized they We're lost. At daybreak
Sunday morning, December 4, they
drove into Hartsell, 15 miles from Gull
man. Then more than 60 miles had
been traversed, mostly in circles.
Stopping in Hartsell only long enough
for breakfast, they started for Tus-
cumbia, the plan of going to Decatur
having been abandoned. Hardly five
miles had been covered when the au-
tomobilists ran into a marsh and
stuck, hub deep. in the mud. With the
finally relased the car. But few
miles later on, and while the rain was
falling in torrents, just as the car
was descending the mountain three
| miles from Courtland, it skidded from
| the road into deep gully and be-
came embedded fast into the mud. :
| After laboring vainly for hours in
the rain, the automobilists abandoned
| the car and sought shelter at the
home of w. E. Hotchkiss, wealthy
4 planter, near Courtland, about 26
miles from Tuscumbia. The car was
finally released late Monday after
noon and the party started for Tus-
cumbia. During! the entire journey
rain fell heavily and the roadwayss
resembled running rivers The car was
driven through water which at times
came above the footboaris and until
the automobilists reached the pike
connecting with Tuscumbia their jour-
ney was extremely hazardous. -s

N THE THEATERS

Ellen Terry has reached the high,
est point in the world of art, and as
an actress has achieved renown and
popular acclaim such as few have ever
dared to hope for. AS an actress and
impersonator she is surpa ssed by
none, and has received the plaudits
of the entire world. Yet in her rem
iniscences she says she has never
been satisfied with her own parts!
and all the while the public has been
delighted. Here is the statement as
she gives it in her writigs: 49,

public had been pleased all along!

of instruments, the violin. His play
ing is characterized by wonderful
warmth of tone, color and abandon,
which, combined with a clean technic,
beautiful bowling and verile interpre-
taton, places him at the head of the
great violinists of the day. Mr.. Dick s

ing in the approaching completion OF

20 and 80 acres and are being disposed
of to homeseekers. The value of lands
at the present time under cultivation
ranges from s75 10 s5OGs raw lands
from 500 to $3.50. The latter priced

ject was initiated was $40 to $3.50 an

ent time appear to be in excellent shape

valley is also good, failures in mercan-
tile lines being practically unheard OF.
