LOCAL AUTO CLUB
AND 4. {. A.. MORE
CLOSELY UNITED
Reciprocal Relations Between
Two Big Motoring Bodies
Firmly Established.

The trustees of the New Jersey Au-
tomobile an Motor Club. through a
circular letter sent to the members OF
the club, has announced that President
Clarence H. Bissell. of the New Jersey
Automobile and Motor Club. and Presi-
dent Henry Sanderson. of the Automo-
bile Club of America, have drawn UP al
agreement for reciprocal relations be-
tween the two big motoring organiza-
tiens and that the agrC ement has been
ratified by the governing bodies OF bota
clubs.
This utilization is of very great in
terest to motorists. as the Automobile
Club of America is one of the most in
tluencial International motoring clubs
in the world and is the American mem-
Der of the International Association Of
Recognized Automobile Clubs, with
close personal affiliations with the gov
erning automobile clubs OF Austria.
Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany,
Great Britain, Holland. Hungary. Italy.
Norway. Portugal, Spain, Roumania,
Russia, Sweden and Switzerland. 1t
has jurisdiction over all International
racing in this country and its running
of the Grand Prize rae Is world IA
nous.
On the other hand. the New Jersey
Automobile and Motor Club is one OF
the largest sectional motoring organiza-
lions in the United States and with its
big membership it eXerts ar enormous
influence for good in all the phases OF
- TO- -. 1a-aa ,wv-5n
in the past in signing and mappiag the
state, protecting its members against
unjust persecution on the highways and
fostering the movements for good
roads and decent motor vehicle legisla-
ton in New Jersey.
That these two big organizations
should become more closely affiliated
will mean that the members OF each
club will be benefited greatly and that
the cause of the motorists in both New
York and New Jersey will be greatly
strengthened.
Mr.. Bissell, when seen yesterday. out
lined the general advantage that would
accrue to the members of the New Jer-
sey Automobile and Motor Club
through this reciprocal agreement.
They were: Transient garage accom-
modations at the New York Club
House, Fifty-fourth and Fifty-ffth
streets, near Broadway, New York, and
the right to purchase such supplies as
a member may need for immediate use;
the right to the service of the club
machine shop and the club tour books,
domestic and foreign route books and
maps, touring information and route
cards, which service is recognized as
one of the best equipped in the country;
the right to call on the clubs attorney
IA New York for special services in in
dividual cases, upon the same terms
as resident members, and various other
advantages to the individual member
and the club as a whole.
Mr.. Bissell said that this agreement
would strengthen the local club greatly
and would be n more cas- why all
motorists. now unafhliated, should be
come members of the organization.

McMURRAY SIGNS CONTRACT.
Valuable Man and Newest in League
Says Hendrix.

Denver, Jan. 24.-Once again has
Jimmy McGill. president of the Den
yer baseball club, found cause to sigh
in relief. He has Hughie McMurray's
signed contract for the 1911 season,
which means that the diminutive little
'Irishman,'' one of the gamest play
ers and the hardest worker in the
Western league, will be behind the bat
for the Grizzlies again this year.
McGill will never forget the service
rendered the Denver club by McMur-
ray last year. On account Of the ILL
ness of Buck Weaver, he was forced
to carry much of the burden of the
backstop work during the season and
this dispite the fact that he was the
victim of numerous accidents.
Early in the season McMurray was
struck by foul tip and his right hand
split open between the thumb and first
finger. He was compelled to warm the
bench for several weeks, not because
ager Hendricks forced him to remain
idle.
Later in the year while playing at
Sioux City, in one of the crucial series
between the Bears and the Indians,
McMurray had his head injured by q
who had famed at critical moment.
McMurray was the only catcher with
the club, Buck Weaver having been
sent home sick a few days before
A doctor was called to sew up the
wound. He took dozen stitches in
N1cMurray's head and the young play
err resumed play. The strikeout which
anger% the Sioux City player had re-
tired the side and it was McMurray's
turn at bat. He went to the plate with
his head swathed in blood-soaked
bandages and cracked out a single.
Weak from loss of blood he stag
gered to first base. Jack Hendricks
tried to have him retire and If nee
essary forfeit the game, but McMurray
refused to listen to this plea. Babe
Towne even refused to allow a sub
stitute to run for the injured man and
he finished out the game. Jack Hen
bricks characterized the incident as
the nerviest piece of work he had wit
| messed in his entire baseball career.

McGRAW HAS IA BoXMEN.
They Will Line Up in Spring Camp at
Marlin

New York, Jan. 24.-The New Y ork
Nationals will have fourteen pitchers
on hand when they line UP for spring
training at Marlin, Tex, in less than
five weeks. Seven of the twirlers are
veterans and seven newcomers. Math-
ewson, Drucke and Crandall will be
McGraw's mainstay for next season,
but he is anxious to develop if possible
at least one or two new pitchers who
will keep the teams strength in this
respect up to the required notch. 1t
is not certain whether Wiltse, Ames Or
Raymond can be counted on and new
star or two will be welcomed enthu-
siastically.
McGraw also has Marquard, the
$11, 900 left handler on his staff and
has not given up the task of trying to
steady this young hoosier.
The seven new pitchers are Rudolph
of Toronto, Hendricks of Vreeland,
Mich; Shontz of Dallas, Jenkins of
Pekin, ILL.,; Tesreau of Shreveport, Ma
gle of E1mire, ana Rustenhaven, whe
pitched for the Cheyenne Indians last
year.

New Accidental Discovery Gives Start
ling ResuIts-Puts Flesh on Thin
People and Rounds Out Imperfect
Figures.
Simple Prescription Given.

For wonderland men. too, for that
matter-Who can never appear stylish
with anything they wear, because of
remarkable prescription is destined to
solve the problem. AS a beauty maker
for the figure it is simply wonderful
while it adds brightness to the eyes,
and color to the cheeks and lips. It
requires no particular dieting, but acts
as an aid to nature by it's peculiar ac-
ton on the nerves and blood supply.
The blood and nerves distribute over
the, body all the nourishment or flesh
building elements obtained from the
food. The trouble with thin people has
always been that they do not absorb
or retain enough of the ffeshy matter
to make them gain in weight even
to a normal extent; but this new dis
covery of blending certain harmless
drugs is a revelation to science. and
hundreds have gained from ten to forty
pounds in a few weeks. There is no
danger of becoming too fat. When you
get the right weight then stop using.
The general health and strength is
greatly improved in anyone from the
age OF sixteen to sixty. Women soon
get plump, with well rounded arms and
strengthening and healthy.

of essence of pepsin and three ounces

TOPEKA MAN MAKING GOOD.
Santa Fe Cartoonist Makes Hit With
His Ability ~

Considerable comment has from
time to time appeared in the press
along the lines of the Santa Fe re-
garding cartoons appearing in this
magazine. Especially has the work of
w. M. Laughlin seemed to make a hit
with many outside as well as those
within the service of the company
Mr.. Laughlin, who at one time was
on the staff Of the Chicago Daily News
but who at present is employed in the
Office of the general watch Inspector
at Topeka, recently received the fol-
lowing encomium in the columns Of
the Kansas City Journal:
The work of "Bilr' Laughlin, car

third base line in the ninth inning of
a. game called fair ball when it was
at least two or three inches foul, and
had it been properly judged the
pitcher would have won a no-hit, no
run game. Being called a safe hit, it
went for three bases and scored a
runner, tying the score, and the bat
ter afterward scored the winning run.
MANY a game is won through a
daring base runner cutting a base and
the failure of the umpire to see the
play. Two good umpires don't miss
those plays and it pays any league to
hire the best men they can get and to
have two of them working together all

WOLVERINE ATHLETICS PAY.
More Than Seven Thousand Dollars
the Net Gain for 1910.


Ann Arbor, Mich, Jan 24.-Accord-
ing to the complete financial report Of
the University of Michigan Athletic
association. which just has been pre-
pared, the Wolverine athletes from the
beginning of 1910 to the present time
added a net gain of more than $1,000
to the balance in the treasury. The
gain would have been somewhat larger
but for the fact that during the past
year the athletic association has been
busy paying off judgments suffered as
the result of the bleacher accidents at
the Michigan Wisconsin game several
years ago.
Neither baseball nor track drew
sufficiently to pay for itself, but as the
deficit, particularly in the case of base
ball, was small, the balance left by
football was large enough to leave a
balance on the right side of the
books.
The financial report of the athletic
association for the year ending Janu-
airy Ia follows:
Balance on hand January 16, 1910,
$21.641.11.
Receipts - Football, s24.1s6.34:
