VI ERNON. proved a surprise and a
Y deep disappointment to the fans
in the series with san Francisco
that ended so disastrously yesterday
With running start of three games
and four more left in which to cop one
and the series, the team went to pieces
and never was able to get back on its
stride, losing four games, every one OF
which they should have won. Their
fielding has been off color for several
days and the felders do not seem TO De
working together as they should. Then
they are muffing and fumbling the bail
in most amateurish manner. Coy
turned two bad tricks yesterday, each
costing a run, and Kitty Brashear
helped out the visitors with three very
bad ones. Hogan presented Frisco with
one run when he got excited and
threw the ball to left field when he
intended throwing 1t to third. Hogan
has a fine bunch of young players who
know how to play the game, but IL
seems that they are sadly in need OF
practice and a steadying hand, Wheh
one fielder makes a bobble they seem
to go to pieces The pitching staff Is
fine and dandy and is being badly mis-
treated by the fielding staff. And the
Villagers are slumping in their hit
ting, too. There are a lot of other
things that might be said of them, but
this probably will be enough for this
time 1t is rather tough for team to
drop to third place after working Its
way out of the cellar up to the front
seat in the garret.
Bobby Levy, the handsome and on
tertaining young business man VINO
owns AL Levy as dad. found the way
back down town yesterday for few
moments and said howdy to few
friends. The youngster that arrived a
few days ago has put both Bob and
Al in fine humor and the celebrating
has not quite stopped yet. As Bobby
is a fine singer, he probably will have
an appreciative audience in the nur-
sery for a few years.
Jack Ripper has drawn the line on
letters of introduction for all future
time. Hereafter, the bearer of a let
ter of introduction will have to pass
line of sentries beginning at the front
door and ending at the private office
door. The cause. young man from
Colorado blew in to see Jack last sat
urGay with a letter from an old friend
of Kip. The young man was willing
to celebrate the meeting and the fact
that he had acquired n valuable ally
via the introduction route, and he tried
to run the show for a few hours. He
wanted to change the routine of bus
mess that Kip had been pursuing. even
to counting the change in the cash
register, telling the employees what and
how to do and in ordering business

FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD
Tourists of Many Countries Will
Meet in Brussels.

Two delegates of the American Automo-
bile Association are now on their way to
Europe to attend the annual congress of
the international League of Touring Asso-
Citations, the exact official title of which Is
"Lgue Internationale des Associations
Touristes."

Good Roads Committee of the Automobile
Club. of Philadelphia, and ". o. Griffith,
chairman of the Touring Informa ton Com
mittee of the same club. are the American

When asked what TO him was the most
pleasant part of the trip he replied:
1T offered too many features for me to

To ride in car that never falters. Not
once on the journey did the car give any
kind of mechanical trouble. From Jackson

Few automobilists have driven over this

In one place the car sank three feet in

it out.
Our expectations were heightened before
the start through Florida by the stories

snakes and polecats and hair-raising haz-

while the route led over a course that
offered almost every variety of obstacle,
it provided some stretches that the aver

had TO travel over miles of deep sand,
through swamps and fords, dodge danger

through woods and prairies where the
dried palmetto leaves were higher than

For stretches of twenty-five miles not

BIG STOCK Of FORD PARTS
Possible to Repair at Once
Models of Seven Years Back.

Some idea of the tremendous extent OF
the automobile business can be CLEANED
from the facts given out by CASTOR Plan
tiff, of the Ford Motor Company's New
York branch, when asked for a statement
on the parts question and its relation 10
+bs nresent day purchaser of an auto
mobile.
Forty eornplets automobiles of the model
'e-T, tyne now being built by the fefd
Motor Connpany could be assembled within
short notice from the parts carried IN STOCK
nv the New York branch. And this Is only
one model which had its birth for fhe sea-
son 1879. Parts for all Ford models dating
bacl, tn 1903 can Just readily De had
when the call of distress is sent in by any
owner.
\ tour OF the big stock room Of the Ford
company IS an interesting study for the
man who has watched the evolution Of the
automobile Here he will find parts of the
old two-eylfnder horizontally opposed type
of eight horsepower, season Of 1903 and 1904
demands for which come in from dfffeFent
localities occasionally, bearing silent Wit
ness of their usefulness There are ap-
proximateIy in the Eastern territory ABOUT
three hundred of this old model running
around still.
Parts for the model r. of 1865, also
two-cylinder, of the horizontal type are
carried in reasonable quantities, as there
are moro than four hundred still In use In
the territory tributary to New York CITY
Another model of the vintage of 1905, the
first of the Ford four-cy1inder vertical type,
six hundred of which were distributed from
the metropolitan branch, is we'll provided
for Eight hundred model II S, the SIX
cylinder car placed by the Ford ON the
market in 1896, and carried through 1897
and 1903, have also to be taken care of from
New York.
Ten complete cars of this type could be
built from the material always on hand.
But the greatest number of parts In stock
are naturally for the famous Ford four
cylinder car which has had it's highest de-
velopment In the present model IT.
Mr.. Plaintiff estimates the value Of the
parts carried by his branch at $250,O00-
Nothing irritates an owner of car so
much as his inability TO use it for the
want of usually some trivial part With a
Ford owner, the minute anything happens
all he has to do is to telegraph or tele-
phone and the wen ofsdhlZeu FOtu STUN
department is or the job, shipping the
needed material at a moments notice.
Mr.. PLAINTIFF carries a day force Of twenty
men and night force Of a dozen to look
after this end alone.
The cost of needed parts has been a sore
one to owners. even when they could get
them. Ford method of manufacture. how
ever, has also reduced the price Of parts to
a minimum.
The strain on the Ford Motor Company
to meet the demand for parts for all its
models in all parts of the world is no
small one, for New York and it's tributaries
are only an item of the big Ford organiZa-
ton. 1t is estimated that more than sew
enty thousand machines have been turned
out by this concern.

There are at the present time several
parties of motorists crossing the United
States, either for pleasure or in the in
terests of some particular automobile manu-
facturer These parties have met with
varied experiences, some pleasant in char
acter and others severe and full OF hard
ship
Paul II. Bruske is in charge of the Flan-
ders Twenty Under Three Flags" party
that left Quebec some time ago, and Is
headed for Mexico. For about a week
now the party has been testing the merits
of the two famous national highways,
built when the country was new and Wien
thousands of families travelled West over
the road
In Canada the crew began to hear about
the road from Pittsburg to st. Louis. More
was heard about the road in Detroit ana
Toledo When the road was actually en-
countered on the run between Indianapolis
and St Louis it was found to be only
very poorly kept highway, spots of gravel
alternating with sand and clay.
But from St. Louis there stretched ahead
the historic highway. The old wire road
they called il in St. Louis, because the
government had followed its establishment
by making it the route of the first tele-
graph line that penetrated the Southwest.
Just where it began and how it could be
reached was something regarding which 81.
Louis was a bit vague.
The tourists left st. Louis one afternoon
about o'clock. Bruske showed Meinzinger
the setting sun. There she is. George;
chase it, was the only road direction at
hand. Somewhere out there Is the old
Springfield road; we want to find it"
The car made sixty miles to Union that
night. and there was found a liveryman
who had been over the road as far as
Arlington several years before. On his
information the tourists entered the
Ozarks At Sullivan the road began to
grow very rough. At Rolla the steep hills
began TO appear. At Arlington and Jerome
a motor car had never been seen, and cliffs,
ruts, stumps and washouts formed inces-
SAINT road periIs, while the climbing In some
places would have puzzled anything less
active than & squirrel.
At Dixon it was farewell to bridges. At
Lebanon nobody could be found who knew
a practicable route TO Sleeper. the next
town And always the creeks grew deeper,
the hills sleeper and the rocks bigger.
Mountain families heard of the approach
of the car and hurried indoors, terror
stricken. Road directions were limited to
the old government Telegraph lllie, when
still remains the monument of the once
famous highway. These conditions pre-
vailed to within a dozen miles of Spring
field.
The old wire road" Is thing of the
past Where it has not been fenced In as
a part of a neighboring farm it has been
so washed out by the rains of years
that there no longer remains any cushion
whatever for the bed rock that forms the
basic material for the whole country.
