Comparison of Prices Last
Year with Those of Ear,
lier Periods Shows That
They Have Not Been
Equaled Since 1890.

Washington, July S.-The high cost
Of living is no myth. An investiga-
tion by the bureau of labor of prices
of 2JI commodities during 1910 shows
that wholesale prices then were four
per cent. higher than in 1903 and 1.6
per cent. above the average in 1907,
which was the year Of highest prices
since 1890.
In view of the Canadian reciprocity
discussion, an interesting item in the
bureaus report shows that the whole
sale prices of farm products were 10
per cent. higher in 1910 than 1909. Of
the 257 commodities considered in the
investigation. 14S showed average in

THOUSAND DOLLAR OFFER
Orange Growers Want to
See the Fun and Are
Willing to Pay for It-A.
A. A. Sanctions Road and
Phoenix Races.
CBy Chester Lawrence)

. Los Angeles. Cal, July s.-(SpeeiaD
An additional thousand dollars is in
sight for the annual Los Angeles-Phoe-
nix automobile race. George Purdy
Bullard of Phoenix was yesterday Of
fered that sum tentatively by a party
of Riverside business men who visited
Bullard and asked that the course be
changed so that the cars in the big
race will go through the city Of River
side
Bullard asked the men TO collect the
money and in return he would take the
matter up with the American AutomO-
bile Association officials in New York.
There is no doubt but that che change
will be made in the course. The pro-
posed new route will take the cars to
San Diego by the way OF the Inland
route and would only be forty miles
longer.
With the added thousand dollars the
total purse is swelled to seven thousand
five hundred dollars in cash, the largest
purse ever offered for an automobile
contest west of Indianapolis and is ex-
ceeded only by the fifty thousand dol
lars sweepstakes contest which is now
an annual event.
The purse will be divided as arranged
by the entrants and Mr.. Bullard. II Is
probable that the car making the short
est time 10 Riverside and finishing in
Phoenix will be given the lions share
of the prize. AS the purses are offered
now the contest assures speed all the
way. The FL Centre purse has not yet
been raised according to the latest ad-
vices although Mr.. Bullard is confident
that the money will be forthcoming
before the end OF next week
In addition TO the cash prizes the
winner of the race will hold ths magni-
ficent trophy the original prize offered
by the Arizona Republican. a cup valu-
ed at $500 offered by ]. G. Bullock's
department store of Los Angeles; a cup
ralued at 800 offered by the Home
Telephone company of San Diego and
others that Mr.. Bullard is now nego-
tiating for
The race from Los Angeles across
the desert to the city of Phoenix Is now
almost generally conceded TO be the most
strenuous automobile contest ever con-
ceived and Eastern manufacturers OF
the modern motor cars are now nego-
tiating to enter machines. The car
that wins the Phoenix race can do any
thing or go anywhere that mortal man
demands Of it. II you don't believe
this take a trip over the course.
Late yesterday afternoon Mr.. Bull
lard received telegram from s. NJ.
Butler of the contest board of American
Automobile Association officially sane
tiOning the big Los Angeles to Phoenix
race. Butler gave the official sanction
number Of the road race as three hun
dred and sixty-two and the official
sanction number of the track race
on the speedy Phoenix track as three
hundred end sixty-three.
Butler also stated that in the track
events. the second and third racer
should be under three hundred and one
and over three hundred and cne cubic
inches displacement OF piston res
pectively. Bullard left yesterday for
three weeks rest at the Coronado
Hotel.

Topeka, Kas., July S.-The Kansas

the hound has been proven accurate
in following the trail of human foot
steps that evidence was enough, said
the court, to convict.
The decision came in the appeal of
Glen Adams, who was convicted in
November, 1910. of the murder of
John Anderson, a farmer. The tracks
around the Anderson home gave a
good trail and the hounds followed
them to the Adams home, six miles
distant. The shoe tracks at the
Adams house and around Adams
body corresponded with the shoes
Adams wore. The shoes and hounds
were all the evidence against Adams.

Midsummer Want News

Midsummer brings many
changes with numberleSs oppOr-
tunitieS to rent furnished
houses, homes and apartments.
Many who are to leave the
city for month or two will be
glad of an opportunity to rent
their homes, already furnished,
to a considerate tenant with
whom they know their property
is safe. Likewise, many who
are i'm the city but temporarily
will be pleased with the chance
to step into a ready made"
cozily furnished home that they
can call their own while they
are tenants.
There's a way for those who
have furnished apartments and
those who wish to rent furnish
ed apartments to meet-it is
through the Want Columns.
The renting of furnished
apartments is but one of scores
of ways in which the Republi-
can Wants may be called into
service each day.
Want advertising is inexpen-

Wide.

Atlantic City. July S.-A resolution
was introduced at today's meeting of
the board of trustees Of the Inter

religion among men. The resolution

union. 1t was referred to the com
mittee on resolutions, which is eX-
pected to act favorably on it.
Rev. Francis f. Clark brought be-
fore the trustees the question of
Christian Endeavor work i'm the col
leges of the country. He thought
that not enough attention was being
paid to college towns and he sug-
gested that an active committee be
to look after this branch
of Christian EndeavOr work.
