worth troubling about. Freddie Welsh is
already on Ritchies track. and he told
me the other day that without a doubt
Richie, as he showed when he deputized
for Wolgast against him at Los Angeles
twelve months ago, was mailing good
boxer.
Much as ! should have liked to have
met Wogast for the worlds title" said
Welsh, "Ritchie is now my opponent. My
challenge is made open to the world, and
after ! am through with my English en-
gagements to oppose Richie will be my
aim"
But whether Richie will welcome Welsh
l imagine depends very much upon the
way in which Welsh acquits himself with

PREVENTS OVERSPEEDlNG
Governor on Garford Trucks
Lowers Upkeep Expense.

THE speed mania seems 70 be porn IN
the American people, says G. w. Ben
nett. vice-president OF the Garford Com
pany of Elyria, Ohio. Everything We
do nowadays is done in hurry up time. in
construction work time is the important
factor. In the building Of the Panama
Canal the engineers are endeavoring to
complete the vast work before the time
set. So It goes. Trains and people arc
constantly endeavoring to make or gain
time.
Knowing that most OF us have this
tendency to rush, all our Garford trucks
have an automatic governor which controls
the speed at which the car can be driven.
On the heavy FIVE tonners' maximum
speed Of ten miles an hour is set on the
governor, while on our lighter trucks tho
limit is raised somewhat We believe
that this IS a safeguard because II pro-
tects the machine against abuse; II Is a
saving on tires. and the motor cannot
be raced. A careful, conservative driver
needs no such arrangement. but such a
device protects against the careless ones

AUTOS ON EASY PAYMENTS
Overland Distributor Evolves
Plan of Helping Customers.

While the scheme Of purchasing an au-
tonobile on part payments is neither
novel nor Startling, g. T. Silver, the Over
land agent in this city, has evolved new
plan permitting those who desire little
time to complete the payments on their
cars TO do so without any undue hard
ship or expense.
With this idea in view he has organ
tied a separate company, called the over
land Part PAYMENT Company to handle
the details of the scheme. Briefly, the
customer has TO pay at least half OF tho
catalogue price OF the car in cash and
IN the balance 10 per cent is added.
For example an Overland delivery
wagon. with freight. costs s1035, TO which
would be added 10 per cent of jS5. which
would make a total cost OF N,o8 90. De-
ductIng a cash payment of $500, there
pouId be a balance OF 1888 80, 10 be paid
off in six monthly payments. The only
other conditions governing the transac-
t,on are that the purchaser shall main
tain insurance on the car and that title
IN the car shall remain with the company
until the full purchase price is paid.

JANA|CA'S GOOD ROADS
Caribbean Island a Delight for
Winter Tourinu.

As winter touring ground for automo-
bilists the island OF Jamaica Is said TO
excel all others in the perfection OF its
roads, climate and scenery. Travellers
who have made the round OF the island
declare that there is no place which offers
so many advantages at so moderate an
expense. The Jamaican government ha,
just begun a campaign 10 attract visitors,
and as a result It is probable that the
island will. in the course OF time, vie with
Florida. Bermuda and Cuba as a haven
for those who can afford to avoid the Sc
we're winter weather OF the North.
The cost of shipping motor car from
New York TO jamaica varies from S25 10
$40. There is little red tape about getting
the machine through the customs. and the
road regulations are Of the most lenient
description. once there, the visitor finds
more than two thousand miles OF good
motoring roads at his disposal, furnishing
an endless number Of tours, and these have
been mapped out so completely that the
motorist making Kingston his headquar-
ters can take runs OF day or week as
he desires. always over good roads and
with excellent hotel accommodations
available.
One main doad follows the coast line,
completely encircling the island, while
several others unite the southern and
northern shores. intersected by cross
roads affording convenient short cuts. A
general level is naturally adhered to along
the shore. and inland the grades are COM
paratively easy. rarely exceeding per
cent. All the roads are well marked, OBJ
Waiting tho danger Of the tourist losing
his way
The beauty of the island lies principally
in its luxuriant vegetation. The cocoanut
palm everywhere dominates the view, but
these are interspersed with clumps OF
bamboo. and there are ferns In countless
variety. There are more than four hun
dred species OF ferns native to the island.
Among jamaican trees is the gigantic
cleba. the wide spreading banyan and the
pimento, and there have been introduced
many exotic species brought from other
warm climates, including the mango and
the orange A curious feature OF Jamaica
is that despite the luxuriance OF Its Vese-
tation there are no poisonous reptiles.
