ninety-one people, made the round

turn over the Interstate Trail last
Wednesday, it being sociability run
of the Indianola Auto Club. And
every car came through and reported
the roads in good condition. No at
tempt was made to establish a speed
record, each car being assigned a
number and was not allowed to pass
the car ahead unless it had stopped
on account of an accident.
The visitors reached Leon about !
o'clock, several Leon autos going out
several miles to meet and escort
them to the city. The fine Italian
band from Miller Bros. Carnival Co.,
were also taken out and furnished
some splendid music. Those who

On reaching Leon the big process
sion of Al cars passed down Main
street, made a loop around so the
visitors could see our fine new depot
and were then taken to Hotel Leon,
where Landlord Cooper had q splen-
did dinner ready for them, and after
their long ride they did ample JUS
tice to it. After dinner the visitors
were shown over the city and
through the court house by ladies
and gentlemen, and they left for
home at 1880, several cars escorting
them out to the Shultz corner four
