next objective point Of interest.
Front Royal was reached in good time,
and later Culpeper. In the vicinity of
Front Royal good roads were once more
encountered. which soon gave way to
ones not so good in character. From
Culpeper course was taken directly to
Orange. Va. where the second night was
spent Between the two latter towns
heavy black mud was encountered in
places. which made the going heavy. and
consequently. when the days run was
over the odometer showed but ninety
five miles registered. In some places the
roads were found to be almost impassa-
BILE, but both cars came through with
the tourists in good shape.
At 8 o'clock the next morning every
body was up and prepared for the final
dash TO Charlottesville, the Wilderness
and fredericksburg. For d distance Of
eight miles out from Orange the roads
were found in good condition for motor
ing but after that the party was forced
to continue its run over muddy cordu-
roy roads, which in some places were
axle deep in mud. Quite frequently
springs were found running beneath the
corduroy road, which caused the ma
chimes to plunge through the road sur
face and up to the frames In mire. It
was through this section that on one &C.
casioLA all hands" got out OF the two
machf1es and spent over an hour prying
the care out of the mire. In many
places the roads encountered resembled

quently at night, appreciate the
importance Of keeping the lens
mirrors and front glasses of motor
lamps clean. A greasy or a dingy
surface, such as follows one or
two evenings driving, absorbs a
considerable percentage of the
light. By far the best and handiest
thing to clean the lens mirrors
is a mixture Of equal parts of
alcohol and water: 80 per cent
solution evaporates more slowly
than pure alcohol, thereby giving
time to wipe the glass clean.

Everything was running smoothly up to

 PHILIPPINE AUTONOMY

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2S.- The house is now debating the Philippine Independence bill and is expected to pass this session. It is almost certain not to be brought up in tie senate this session but that it will be brought up there next session is regarded as as- sured. The opinions of the members of congress on this question seem to nave undergone a change and the more it is considered the more is it regarded as likely that the Islands will receive autonomy. Privately, if not publicly, the feeling is voiced that the granting of self government to the Island may obviate certain inter- national complications which are con stantly regarded as possible.

Paris, Sept. 29, p. m. --- Nothing. decisive has occurred anywhere along. the lines of battle between the Ger. mans and the allies in France accord. ing to the official announcement given out this afternoon. The allies have gained slightly at several points but the German center still holds strongly. OnI the left the French continue to make progress. The Germans have obtained no apparent advantage from their sue
 cess on the Mouse heights. They made breach there but the effects will bel enumerated. The Germans, 1t is said
 without doubt, have been ordered toI hack through the allied lines anywhere at any cost, and within a short time it is assured that the supreme moment will arrive when the Germans will bel hurled back or the allies must retire towards Paris. The Germans are mol longer able to disregard the advanceI of the Russians and they must beat the allies soon so that they can turn their attention to the Russian hosts in the
 east or they must watch powerlesslyI the capital of Germany threatened with occupation But
 this afternoon there seems be more indication that
