Foreign Speed Laws.

While the automobile laws in some of
the SWISS cantons are nnequalled for re-
strIctlye features, some other European
countries present laws that are almost
equally severe The German govern,
mont, for one, persists IN treating the
motor driven vehicle as thing to be
greatly feared although the honor of
invention is claimed by Herr Benz,
whose machines have been in use in
Germany for a quarter of a century.
The German law, which is in force
throughout the empire, prescribes a
MAXIMUM speed Of nine miles an hour
in all towns and villages. The effect Of
this regulation, it is said, has been to
increase the congestion of the streets
10 a greater extent than was ever be
fore.
The German requirements with regard
10 driving licenses are also remarkable.
The applicant must furnish his photo
graph. his birth certificate and a ccrtif-
cate from his physician testifying to
his good physical condition and free
dom from illness. Then, after his moral
character has been certified to he is
given a series Of severe road tests to
show his driving capacity. If he
emerge. unscathed ne is given license.
italy this Year also placed in effect a
new motor vehicle law that is 0usder-
IA hash in some Of its phases. especial
Iv with regard to the amounts of fines
that may be imposed. The penalty for
driving through town or village at
greater speed than the low rate pre-
scrihed i from $50 to 500. In the open
country no car l. allowed to travel at

Packards Coming.

The Won Hamm-Y Young Company is
anxiously awaiting the arrival of a
number Of 1911 Packard ears of various
types which are now on their way from
he factory Among the purchasers of
these ears is Geo. |. Brown who has
ordered a beautiful 80 phaeton; Mrs.
Geo. X. Carter, who has ordered one of
the stylish IS runabouts, with the fore
door body; +. NJ. Swanzy, who has
also. ordered one of the 80 phaetons !;
and several others.
The showing made by the large num-
Der of Packards in and about Honolulu
has been so phenomenal that there is no
highclass ear talked of as much as the
Packard. Tt only bears out the exper-
fence which for years has been had by
agents on the mainland. who all agree
that of all the high-class American
ears the Packard is by far the greatest
favorite, showing as it does the quint-
essence of what is the highest art of
automobile manufacture in America

and again he refused it. When. toward
the close of the season, he finally
brought himself to take his loss, he
sold the car for 5000 While the
amounts vary, this is typical of the
average dealers frame of mind and of
the general result. No agent can do
that sort of thing very often or very
long and remain in business, or at any
rate do much more than live from hand
TO mouth To be safe, the dealer must
cease placing fictitious values on old
cars. He must let the owner bear the
loss, and when he does take used car
in trade he must get rid of it Just as
quickly as the law allows. Every day
that he holds it lessons its value, and
1t IS time this important truth was
realized. The matter is of concern to
the manufacturer, because if the dealer

There Is no doubt however that

Roosevelt was staying IN New York
over night. preparing to. start for
Washington the next morning, and
Lodge dropped into town quite cas-

Whatever moral support Lodge
may have been given in his talk with
the contributing editor, no outward
evidence of renewed activity by
Roosevelt has resulted. At the Out
lok Office to-day there was nothing
to be said of the conference.

HOW|Tz[Rs PLANNING
FOR MORE PRACTICE

Since the State military board has
recently increased the appropriations
for the artillery batteries. the How
tiers are making plans to give the
men regular instruction In practical
work The idea of Captain Myers
and his associates Is to engage suf-
ficient number OF horses every week
to give every member OF the How
tiers at least one afternoon month
of practice in handling their mounts
IL Is hoped that some field near the
city can be procured that Will offer
a drill ground for the squads. The
battery Will drill In sections that re-
quire fifteen horses. though some
times thirty WITH be needed Tor the
equipment OF two guns and caissons.
1t Is desired to procure the horses
from one source, and one that can
furnish the full quota regularly.
These plans were discussed at
dinner given by Captain Myers Mon
day evening, II which the commits
stoned and non-c commissioned Off
GERS were present. Major r. NJ. wor-
than. Battalion Adjutant j. c. Wise
and Surgeon f. X. Warrick were also
