New Magnetic Proves Winner.5

Europe and America are watching
a new magnetic which is gaining fame
abroad. The latest success of this
magnetic, which is called the Mea, was
made in a race across the hills in
Craiganlet, Ireland, a few weeks ago,
when it was awarded two first prizes.
These magnetos we're carried in this
race on a Gregoire and a Nom motor
car, and though the test was extra
ordinary the %magnetos responded to
the unusual demands with absolutely
perfect scores.
Another triumph for the Mea came
in the Grand Prix de PA. @. F., at the
races at Dieppe, France, considered
the most important of all foreign
motor a events. This race was won
by a Peugot a fitted with the Mea.
The car winning second prize in this
race also carried a Mea. This achieve
ment is all the more remarkable be-
because of the fact that the races in
both places e controlled by COM
petitive products, and the magnetos
were all selected from stock and the
awards were made on the basis of I'M
m~istakable merit.
The winning cars carried only one
magnetic each, SO the entire fortune
of each entry depended on the Mea
Magnetic, while all competing makes
carried an extra or reserve magnetic
on each racing a to guard against
failure.
The Mea Magnetic has made numer-
GUS records which have gained ii
great popularity, and it is said the
apparatus will be strongly in evidence
in America in the year 1914.
The Mea is manufactured in Stuff
CART, Germany, and Americans will be
interested in knowing that Adolphue
Busch, of st. Louis, is the principal
stakeholder. Marburg Bros. Inc, 1890

JUDGE HUMPHREYS of Seattle has
been doing a little "iniuncting," for
bidding the Socialists of that city
holding meetings on the streets. OF
course vigorous ''kicks'' are being
made, but to no effective purpose.
The people can't reach the judge and
he sits in the forum, smiling blandly,
not to say sardonically, at their futile
protestations. In the insolent "what-
are-you-going-to- do-about-it" style
that made Boss Tweed immortal,
Judge HUMPHREYS has Haunted the
helplessness of the people in their
faces. To a reporter of the Seattle

get rid of me is to impeach me before
the Legislature of the state of Wash

meet again for nearly two years. I
tell J on the only way to get rid of a
judge is by impeachment, and they
can't impeach me. I am not a violator
of law. I am not immoral. | am not
a drunkard. I never took drink OF

peach me for drunkenness. / never

THE q%uarrying of granite is one Of
the big industries of the country.
During 1912, according to E. F. Bur-
chard, of the United States Geological
Survey, the production in the United

mont was the leading producer, with
an output valued at 1904 ,305; and 13
other states each reported a produc-
ton of more than $500, 600, while 6
of these produced more than 81 900, :
900 each. Over 80 per cent of the
total, or S6,127, 1854, was represented

Three guns were raised - to as

three shells were fired; then three
