Nichols. the Broadway tradesman,
have arranged for special train to
leave New York tomorrow evening at

sentative will be on that train, and
1t will be interesting to those that
are doubtful about getting aecommo-
dations in the already crowded re-
served-for hotels at Indianapolis that
the railroad company will put on a
dining car, which, with the sleeping
car, will be side tracked at Indian
apolis, and the party will live aboard
during the meet All who wish to go

Considerable progress was made at
the meeting of the orphans day COM
mittee of the Newark Motor Club
Friday night. More than 700 chill
dren are already listed from dozen
institutions in this city, and every
thing points to one of the biggest and
most successful affairs of the kind
ever held in this State. There are
still two or three other institutions
TO be heard from, and representatives
of the committee will get in COM
munication with the authorities at
these homes within the next day or
two. Tt is the desire of the club Of
ficials to take out every child that
can possibly go.
George II. Smith. chairman of the
route committee, submitted a report
of the route to be covered, which will
include a trip through both Branch
Brook and Eagle Rock parks before
the arrival at Olympic Park, where
the children will disembark and en-
ioy the hospitality of mine host,
schmidt The finance committee al
ready has on hand s225, and it is ex-
pected that at least $500 will be SUD
scribed to the fund for the feeding OIL
the children
The response for cars has been
good. but more will be needed in
order to take care of all of the chill
dren. c. Louis Fitzgerald. 20 Bran
ford place, is chairman of the car
committee and he will be glad TO
have any one communicate with him
who can spare their car for the after
noon of June l.. the date set for the

The manner of touring ard c 'mpe-
titions for motorists have undergone
some change of late and il was slIg-
gested to The Star by W. Fl. owen,
of the Henderson Nj oIor Car Conn.,

future too much dependence must not
be placed on the trade for entries fer
such events. and that ra1Eer lfo-
noters. club and otherwise, should
look to their members and the gen
eral public for entries, as there arc
more TINA 100000 TO
draw in this country. The Newark
Motor club, one of the liveliest or
in the East in TINS re-
spect. had out last Sunday. despite
adverse weather conditions, over
motorists, the run being
TO Newburgh. All declared that The
route was a magnificent one, but me
run went by way of Tuxedo instead
of going up the west banks OF the
Hudson. which offers a much better
scenic route, with the exception,
however, as stated. of Storm King
Mountain. which is rather dangerous
al present President De Witt c. Rey-
nolds is already at work on other
series for the summer and fail
months. and this work has been
placed in the capable hands of Hor-
ace A. Bonnell who needs no intro
duetion as clever arranger of such
affairs. Mr.. Bonnell. by the way. is
in charge of the feeding arrange
nents of the 5000 New York orphans
at Glen Island. June 5, and he is
working with the A. A. A. and Or

New York in that affair.
