SMALLPOX OUTBREAK
OVER At EASTPORT
Three Well Developed Cases Cause
Alarm in Village.
TWO MEN AND BABY HAVE IT.
Patients aud All Suspects to be Re-
moved 10 Quarantine Station Near
Baltimore.

Three we'll developed cases Of SMALL
pox have been discovered at East
port, near Annapolis, and the situa-
tion has caused no little alarm among
residents of the village, as Well as
the Anne Arundel county authorities.
The patients are all colored people.
two men and a baby eight months old.
The cases are in two widely sepa-
rated sections of the village. The
health officials Of the city and county
Immediately took steps 10 Elace the
residences IN quarantine, as pre-
caution against further spread of ths
disease, though IL is not unlikely that
more cases will develop in view Of
the tact that the patients had been
sick for several days, and no report
had been made to the doctors until
yesterday.
Furthermore, the County Com
missioneTs, in session today, imme-
diately upon being notified OF the out
break of the dreaded maladg, decided
to remove all three patients and all
persons living in the two houses. or
suspected of having the disease, TO
quarantine station, outside Of Balti-
more city.
When the cases were first reported
to the local medical authorities. they
were first thought to be an affection
of chickenpox. Last night, however,
DR.. William S. Welch, the city
health officer, and Dr.. Walton II. Hop
kins, the county health official, and
several other physicians, all agreed
that the eruption was that of small
pox. But TO make doubly sure, DR.. c.
W. II. Rohrer, of the Bureau of Com
municable diseases, of the State
Board Of Health. was asked to come t.
Annapolis and view the patients.
DR.. Rohrer did so this morning, and
the matter was at once taken up with
the county authorities, and arrange
ments at opce made to have the three
patients and suspects removed TO
quarantine hospital. One Of the pa
tents is a man named Thomas, who
lives on Severn avenue. In the same
house with Thomas, the baby eight
months old, child Of another family,
is badly affected with the disease.
Several other persons live under the
same roof. and it is feared that they,
too, are infected, but that che erup-
tion has not yet developed. The other
colored man afflicted with the malady
is James Turner, who lives on Third
street.
Several other negroes also live
in the house with Turner. All of
these are regarded as suspects, and
probably will be sent to quarantine.
Meantime, the yellow flag Of quaran-
tine has been placed on both of the
residences, and watchers have been
placed thereabouts to see that no one
leaves or enters the premises.
The health authorities are in a
dilema as to tracing the source of
the infection. 1t is regarded as not
unlikely, however, that il was con-
tracted by Turner, who has been work
ing in Baltimore for some time.
There has been a number Of cases of
the disease in that city for the last
sc veral months. The bodies Of all
three Of the patients. it is stated, are
entirely enveloped with the red pos
tules, the peculiar eruption Of the
disease.

HILL CLIMBING DISAPPEARS.
Each Year Sees Fewer Automobile
Contests of This Kind.

While each succeeding year sees fewer
automobile racing contests, there is one
form of motor competition which is fast
going into the discard. No longer are the
historic Algonquin and Giants Despair
hill climbs on the automobile sports
men s card. These classics have been
abandoned and their revival is uncer-
tain, due to the attitude of the car man
ufacturer toward competition. During
the past year only seven hill climbs were
held In different parts of the country.
The south had its climb at Atlanta, Ga.
the middle west at Newport, Ind, the
far west at Coalinger Cal. and the east
at Richmond Springs, n. Y. Cincinnati
Ohio. and Haines Falls, n. Y.
Probably the most strenuous climb
of the year was that at Haines Falls
N. Y. held in conjunction with Senator
w. j. Morgan's CatSkill mountain re-
liability run. Here the cars We're re-
quired to climb a IL mile course III

which was IA per cent. There were
several tortuous turns where a mis-
judgment on the part of the driver
meant plunge of several hundred feet

USE LOWER GEAR RATIO.
This Is Necessary When More Power
Is Needed.

When the motor cannot be accel
Grated without dropping back into a
lower gear 1t is evident that it's maxi
mum power at the speed at which
it is running is being taken fully, and
that no varying of the mixture will
give greater power at that speed.
Therefore. if more power is to be de-
veloped by speeding the motor up, it
is necessary to lessen the resistance
by using a lower gear ratio. This
enables the motor to be considerably
speeded up, with a greater number of
revolutions in a given space of time :.
which is the same as stating that the
power is Increased. 1t is now possible
to go back to the higher gear and
proceed at a greater speed than was
the case before. the speed increasing
until power developed and resistance to
motion are again equal and opposite.
When the motorist finds that such a
buildingu up process is necessary be-
fore he can attain his greatest speed
he should not grumble at the car or
monkey with the carburetor. for the
motor is working at its greatest eff
cheney. The only way for such a man
to obtain quicker acce1eration to that
speed or greater one is for him to
buy a car with a higher-powered
motor.

Care of Garage Floors.

Concrete floors in garages should be
painted with preparation giving them
a smooth surface which is easily cleaned
and saves the concrete from wear and
gritty dust from rising. The floors should
be pitched slightly from the center line
down TO the side walls, both ways. with
cutters formed in the concrete along the
walls SO that washing may be done, If
necessary, without moving the cars.

some respects, the most important OF
the five cross-country routes so far log
ged by the national organization start
ing from Los Angeles after the COM
pletion of the Indiana makers tour, the
trail to sunset was followed through
San Diego and Yuma to Phoenix, Ariz.,
where. leaving the Santa Fe trail, a
southerly detour was made along the
line of the borderland route through
Tucson. Bisbee and Douglas TO Lords
burg, y. NJ. On account of the equal
Importance of the two routes across
southern Arizona. it was decided to use
both. which required a loop back to
Phoenix by Clifton. Globe and Roose-
velt dam. and thence east again TO
Lordsburg, making three trips between
Phoenix and LordSburg.
After crossing the Rio Grande river, a
southwesterly course was followed TO FL
Paso, thence northeasterly to Alamo
gordo, and through Roswell, Sweetwater,
Abilene and Fort Worth to Dallas. Leav-
ing Dallas, the route led to TeXarkana,
where the Red river was crossed into
Arkansas in which state the slowest
average time of the entire trip was
made somewhat on account OF excep-
tionallv heavy rains at the time the
pathtnding party went through How
ever, Arkansas was safely traversed,
and from Memphis TENN the route of
the proposed Memphis to-B Bristol high
way was followed to Nashville. After
careful investigation 1t was considered
best to take the longer way from Nash
vile to Knoxville via Chattanooga.
which constituted the only deviation on
the entire trip from the route of the
southern national transcontinental high
way.
Longest Single Trip Ever Made.
From Knoxville the short line was
taken across the mountains to Asheville,
y. G., which proved to be a wonderfully
scenic route, materially better than the
preliminary reports had seemed to in
dictate. Leaving Asheville, the route led
through Statesville, Salisbury and
Greensboro TO Durham, N c. where the
line of the Quebec Miami international
highway was met and followed north
through GAINESVILLE, Boydton, Dinwid-
die and Petersburg to Richmond. Va.
After traverSing the short line be-
which. though not yet completed. will
be finished next year the standard
route was followed from the National
Capital through Baltimore. Wilmington
and Philadelphia to New York.
This is the longest single trip of it's
kind ever made, and full data were col
lected from which complete milea ge,

formation for the tourist will be pre-
pared. especially for the heavy cross

c. Haven Smith of San Francisco has
just ended trip from the Golden Gate
city to New York, made under novel
conditions. Smith, an amateur driver
piloted his car from coast to coast in
thirty days, and thereby won a wager
of $4,000. He was limited to six tires
in order to qualify for the money.
Another af the unique conditions was
the stipulation whereby he was not per-
mitted to enter a garage or repair shop
along the route for the purpose of making
repairs or adjustments Whatever atten-
ton was needed for the car had to be
given, it was agreed, by Smith, who had
been driving the machine only four
months. and by his wife. who accompa-
MED him.
When it became known that the long
journey was to be undertaken, Smith re-
ceived a number of offers from motor car
manufacturers, but decided to go across
in his own car, declaring it best able
to stand the arduous run.
