Spaulding car and accompanied by

River-to-River road in hours and IA
minutes, glowering the record made
last December by Don p. Mcclure, of
'Oskaloosa, over the Great White Way
by l hour and 29 minutes.
Mr.. Wells drove into Council Bluffs
yesterday afternoon in a driving hail
storm, which he encountered just as
he entered the city. He registered in
at the end of his long drive at 1851
o'clock.
During his terrific race across the
state, Wells pushed his car to proba-
bly, a greater speed than has ever
been attained over the same kind of
roads and the same distance. He ran
races with fast railroad trains and
left them in the distance. He burned
up certain stretches of roads at a
pace that would be incredible were
1t not for the fact that he was. regis
tered in and out of towns by credi-
table timekeepers, reporting to Des
MOines over long distance telephone.
.le did not stop for food or refresh
ments, but devoted all his energies
to keeping slightly ahead OF the
schedule he had prepared for himself
to beat the enviable record estab-
lished year ago by Don Mcclure.
Good luck favored Wells through
out the journey. 1t is hardly posi-
Bile that another trip could be made
over the same road with SO little trou-
BILE. Throughout the entire distance
only thirty-three minutes were taken
out by Wells for stops. Near Maren-
go he broke spring and thirteen
minutes were used up at Grinnell in
substituting a new spring. Wells
took five minutes for gas near Des
Moines, four minutes for gas and oil
at Guthrie Center, two minutes at Elk.

 a long lead that q throw can catch him mapping, Miller signals for a peg to the base and the pitcher shoots it over and puts the mans out. George Cutshaw, the second baseman Nho has kept tab on Brooklyn pitchers throws to first base, says that at least two-thirds of such filings have result ed in putouts this year. Another way in which Miller helps the pitcher by this is that he does the watching and lets the twirler concentrate on the task in hand.
 Next to Miller, the most important additions to the team are Bob Fisher who is playing a rattling good short stop, and Charley Stengel, who has proved himself a slugger of the first degree and fielder of dependability Cutshaw, at second, works with Fish CT much as Collins and Barry of the Athletics cooperate. Of course, neither compares with the wonderful Macllmen, but they show latent possi- bilities of growing into stars of almost that grade. Red Smith has been hold ing down third base equally capable and has been hitting in the pinches Daubert, about whom nothing need be said, completes the quartet. IL is the first time since Hanlon that the team has had a regular infield.
 On one side of Stengel, in left field. is Zach Wheat, recognized as one of the games premiers, and for right field there are fouravailables. Her bert Moran, slugging old John Fdn- mel, Benny Meyer and Patsy Callahan are taking turns. Hummel is kept mainly because of his hitting and the other three are fighting it out There are not more than two outfields in the league that can shape up as well as Brooklyn's.
 Nap Fucker is the leader of a first class pitching staff. Lefty Allen, the other southpaw, who cost $5,000, at last is showing his true worth, and Pat Ragon is proving a trusty right handler. Smoke Stack Cliff Curtis and Dutch Wagner have slipped in an oc- casional stretch of good work. When aron Knetzer, the later holdout, re- joins them in good shape, the staff will be well rounded out. At present Allen and Ragon have been rotating for three games, with the fourth divided between the others, and even such powerful sluggers as the Cubs were held to low scores ill their recent series.
 Thus far the Dodgers have won ev- cry series they have played except one, the first of the year with the Phillies, in which the Quakers beat them four out of five by taking every victory on one-run margin. Three out of four from the Cubs, the same against the Giants and six out of eight  from the Braves seem to indicate that the team is consistent despite it's youth.
 Most promising young team in the business is right. Pennant this year? No. Pennant next year? Within the realms of possibility. Pennant in 1915? More than likely, Every one of these fledgelings should be a bet ter ball player by that time, and if Bill Dahlen keeps on and adds one or two more real ball players per tWelve-mOnth, we are likely to gaze upon one of the best teams gathered in decade before many winters pass.

BRIDGE CONTRACTS LET.

Contracts were awarded on Wednes
day by the commissioners to the Mis-
souri, Valley Bridge & Iron Co., Of
Wichita, to finish the three uncom-
pleted bridges near Claflin for the
sum of s496O.OO, and to build Adult
ments to two bridges across the Lit
tie Cheyenne for sl6lS.OO, work to
start in ten days and to be complet-
ed in sixtydays.
This contract Is for the cOmplet-
ion of the work which the defunct
jenkins Construction Co. had in hand
and which they abandoned owing to
financial difficulties. This has been
a particularly unfortunate deal for
the county, and particularly for those
of the Claflin district who have been
DISCONNECTED since early spring by
having the bridges torn out. Hav-
ing the affairs Of the Jenkins com.
pany involved with a surety compar
ny has made 1t impossible for the
commissioners to make new arrange
ments for the completion of the worf
until the present time. The compa
ny having the work in hand for com
pletion are perfectly capable finan-
cially and otherwise to carry the mat
ter to a speedy and successful culmi
nation and the uncertainty in connec
ton with the affair Is now at an end
] The county Is fully protected by tn
surety bond in the Jenkins matter
and it seems improbable that any
one will be a loser In that unfortu
nate deal except the construction
company and their bondSmen, bu
lit looks probable that the claims will
be settled in court.
