sank beneath the waves. Every per-
son had been transferred to a place of
safety and watched the vessel go down.
Mrs. Russell said nothing but the
GOODNESS of Capt Stewart and his men
prevented loss of life.

and told us a boat was running into
us and that it would strike our state

BIC AUTO PARADE
This Will Be Feature of Meet

THEY WANT A STATE TAX

The longest automobile parade ever
held in Kansas is a feature that is
planned for the meeting of the Kansas
State Automobile association in To-
dreds of cars will participate in the
spectacular cavalcade.
As a concluding event it is proposed
10 go on a sociability run to Hutchin-
son, where a fair will be in progress
the following week. The plan has
been suggested" said Charles Barnes,
president of the Kansas Automobile
association. ''that after the annual
meeting of the association we have
first annual sociabi1ity run to Hutchin-
son-that is, if there are enough west
ern cars to pilot us. The automobilists
would probably stop at some town
over night while en- route"
Legislative Measures.
The members of the association
consists almost entirely of Kansas
business men. The members natural
~ are interested in GOOD roads. Con-
sequently at the meeting in September
a number of proposed legislative
measures will be discussed.
For example the me florists will prob
ably ask the legislature to enact a law
putting a state tax on automobiles per
horse power; also to require state reg
istration and state serial numbers.
State registration is in vogue in the
majority of states of the Union where
motoring is popular.
Then the autoiSts will undoubtedly
ask the Legislature to arrange for the
expenditure of the hundreds of thou
sands of dollars that would be brought
in through the taxing of $4,000 autos
in the state for the making of good
roads and for paying the salary of
a state engineer to oversee the work.
The main thing is to get the roads
improved said President Barnes Of the
association today. This is simply a
big good roads movement. Some of the
members are in favor of using convicts
in road construction"
Secretary D. E. Watkins, of the state
association, writes from Kansas City
that he expects 1000 cars to be in
Topeka for the first annual meeting.
President Barnes says that to judge
from the letters he has received he
would place the number at least 900 or
700.
Plans for Entertainment.
The management of the Kansas
State Fair associatio has decided to
admit convention cars and the drivers
to the fair grounds free Of charge while
the Kansas exposition is in progress.
A space will be reserved for these cars
in the northwest corner of the grounds
near the agricultural hall. The cars
will be policed, so that the association
members need have no fear of having
any of their property carried away.
The Commercial club, the Shawnee
Motor club, and the mana cement of the
Kansas State Fair association will Of
fer a first prize of say $50 for the coun-
ty that sends the largest delegation to
the convention. Two other prizes will
probably be offered. The Commercial
