SHOULD EXAMINE
CARS CAREFULLY
BEFORE STARTING
Precaution Saves Wear and
Tear and Often Prevents
Accidents.

Preliminary to taking an automobile
out of the garage there are several
things which a motorist should think
or In the first place an examination
OF the car should be made, starting In
with the brakes. The emergency brake,
as well as the foot brake, should be
kept In first -clas order,
II ought to be possible to lock the
wheels with either set, and at the ga me
time the brakes should not bind when
they are released. Care should be taken
to see that they are properly .equalized.
because II one wheel receives more
power from the brake than the other
a serious skid may be the result, and
one Is very liable to end UP In the hos
pital
Next In order IL a close examination
OF the steering mechanism. which is one
or the most important parts OF the au-
tomobile, and upon which there rests a
great deal OF responsibility. BE positive
before starting out that there Is no ex-
cessive lost motion and no undue bind
ing, Tor " there ls any trace OF either
immediate attention Is necessary. A
great many automobilists seem to think
the steering mechanism needs very little
attention. whereas II It was given a Sc
rious thought at frequent intervals there
would be fewer accidents
The radiator should then be flled
/ with clean water and the fabrication OF
the entire car. not only the engine,
which 80 many autowobillsts seem to
think Is the only part to be fabricated.
should be looked after. Proper lubrica-
tion will give any car. regardless Of
| price. longer service and life and help
| to cut repair bills.
| The next in order Is the gasolene tank.
which should be filled with gasolcne
| that has been strained through chamois

stralner In the gasoiene pipe which

and be sure that there are plenty Of

Extraordinary Orders
Before Cars Are Made

1t Is doubtful II any other business
presents the extraordinary industrial
situations that mark the manufacture
and sale of automobiles. The public
has marveled at the amazing growth
of motor car production which has de-
veloped from the condition OF a puny
infant to that of huge giant within
the short space OF ten years But there
are now other conditions just as ex-
ceptIonal and unique. For example, in
what business would one find that 5000
buyers had spent nearly 5000 apiece
for a commodity before they had seen
It, or even "A picture of II. II is hard

Deputy United States Marshal kelso,
Engaged on Moore Murder Case, Shot
and Wounded by Town Character
Injuries Not Fatal.

Special to Times Republican.
villisca, June 17.-This city or rather
that part Of it which happened to be
awake at an early hour this morning,
was given another thrill and one that
came near being another murder re-
sulting indirectly from the recent octu-
pal tragedy here.
A party Of officers, including Night
Watchman Warrman and Deputy
Uniteed States Marshal Harrison Kelso.
of Creston were in their quarters over
the postoffice. which has been their
rendezvous during the recent trouble.
Kelso started from the place and at the
stairs met a fellow known as Cherokee
Will Sparker. a character about town.
Kelso heard words in the room above
soon after Sparker entered there and
he returned to investigate. 1t Is re-
ported that as soon as Sparker entered
the room he opened a suit case he car
ried and offered Warrman whisky to
drink. Warrman told Sparker he must
cease such actions, which was resented
by Sparker and q serious quarrel re-
suited. Kelso re-entered in time to
mix in it. A rough and tumble fight
resulted and while kelso had Sparker
on the floor Sparker drew his gun and,
placing the muzzle at Kelso's head,
fred. The bullet entered below the
skin. and, passing around the skull. did
not penetrate kelso's head. and today
he is much improved. Warrman was
to take Sparkers gun from
him when the shot was fired. Sparker
will face charge Of assault with in
tent to kill.

terday Of I stampede from the ranks
of the southern Taft delegates to the
Roosevelt side In the titanic, world
engrosSinS contest over the American
presidency The Roosevelt leaders, la.
boring under despairing conditions for
ten days previously. but now aroused
to a new enthusiasm by the presence
of their commander-in-c In chief and the
filling of the field with Roosevelt
shouters, gained advantage on the un-
sentimental side by putting out state
ments showing defections from the
presidents column Of instructed del
egates.
Timothy L. Woodruff Of New York
also went over to Roosevelt. His col
leagues of the New York delegation
say that he will be back in camp today
or tomorrow, but he was on the colo
nels staff last night.
Georgia, according to the Roosevelt
statement, gave five pccselytes, Mis-
sissippi yielded at least two. and the
Roosevelt managers claimed two more.
Tennessee and Virginia are states from
which the Roosevelt managers expect
to put forth. statements today showing
further defections from the Taft side.
Taft managers. taken all aback oy
the developments, went bravely to
work to prove the Roosevelt claims OF
prosclyted strength exaggerated: and
they expect that facts presented when
the delegates as a whole arrive on the
ground will show that they are hold
ing their forces sufficiently to pre-
serve a majority on the temporary roll.
