The method Of cleaning and treating
leather cushions is very simple. A weak
acid may be used to clean on foreign
matter. following which the leather
should have very thorough cleansing
with warm water to remove every possi-
BILE trace OF the acid. The leather is then
softened with castor oil, or, better. heats
foot oil which may be obtained from any
dealer in leather or from nearly all paint
stores. 1t is . good idea to have this
oil around and apply 1t at all times for
it makes the leather softer, more pliable
and much better looking. Moreover, 1t
IS useful for all kinds of leather.

1t is q great mistake to use an auto
mobile engine several months without
Civ ng 1t any attention except to feed It
with oil and gasoline. Any engine after
a hard SEASONS use will have accumu-
lated a good deal of carbon on its pis-
tons and cylinders. This carbon causes
trouble and should be removed. This can
be done with kerosehe quite easily by
turning the engine over by hand. 30 that

time smashing the notwithstanding

Burman's time was hours 80 minutes

speedway, August 49, 1870. 1t was
Horan's debut In the racing game and his
consistent driving enabled him to out
distance his pursuers. He averaged sew
euty-,wo miles an hour. and the hot
pace he set n shown by the fact that he
came within four minutes of the three
hundred-niie record. made at the Brook
lands track In England. Had he not stop

The long grind to make q tire change he
would undoubtedly have established a

He has not decided just what he will do
in the future. He was a pallbearer at

dark that the actions OF even the fight

Fresno. Cal. March 15.-Hugh Duny

Jimmy Scott was double-crossed by
a lot of his old pals from the Imperial

his life. Ed Walsh pitched the first
four rounds and held the Tigers to
three runs. Scott then relieved him
and had to finish out Of the game as

San Francisco. March 15.-Jack
Johnson is reported to have been in an
other automobile accident. A little
while ago word came out this way that
Johnson, recognizing the risk he was
subjecting himself to. had decided to
abandon automobile driving until he
had it out with Jeffries. Whoever gave
out this news did not know what he
was talking about, apparently.

a score Of times. that IL there Is any
hitch in the Jeffries-Johnson proceed
ings. 1t will be because johnson will be
thrown out of his car and injured be-
You'd repair. AS a matter OF fact, some
practical joker a few months ago con-
cocted a telegram setting forth that
Johnson had been killed in a smashup
in the east and had it read at an Oak
land boxing entertainment.

turbed over the prospects of the negro

| is said that if Johnson avoids catastro-
| phe until he arrives here to begin train
ing for Jeffries, several influential mem
bers of his race will try to prevail upon
him to give up motoring until after
July 4.
For that matter, 1t is up to the pro.
