MOTORCYCLE RACES

The lovers of the motorcycle racing
will receive all that is to their liking
here next Monday. September z.
The management of the local fair
association regrets very much that
this class of racing could not be put
on this week at the big fair, but
owing to the great amount of large
stake races and program being
SO crowded it was impossible, and
with the local boys, some of them
having secured fast machines it was
deemed impossible for them to ride
unles the track was in condition for
such events and in order to place the
track in condition after the horse
racing 1t would make it too late for
the motorcycle races.
Mr.. Washington, from Kentucky,
Mr. Andre from Charleston, and Mr..
linn, from Parkersburg, will be here
to show the local boys just how fast
they are riding. If the local boys can
succeed in leading any of these riders
to the wire, we may be safe in saying
that C1arksburg has not only the fast
est boys on motorcycles in West Viz
gfnia, but the state of Kentucky
also.
Ours, a local rider, took everything
in sight at Pennsboro, but not only
has the outside riders to trim, but
will also have F'rum, local boy, who
has Just received his new motor from
the factory turned up to the limit and
the famous "Baldheaded Dulix
Hendrickson. who has also just re-
ceiyed his machine from the factory,
turned up for fast riding.
It cannot be denied the Excelsior,
the machines ridden by Frum and
Hendrickson is the closest and
strongest competitor the Indian has.
and with these machines fighting
each other there can be no question
as to the interest in the results.

A WARNING TO MANY
Some Interesting Facts Abou
Kidney Troubles

Few people realize to what extent
their health depends upon the condi.
ton OF the kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases
OF serious illness makes a chemical
analysis OF the patients urine. He
knows that unless the kidneys are
doing their work properly, the other
organs cannot readily be brought back
to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused In any way, serious results
are sure to follow. According to health
statistics, Bright's disease which is
really an advanced form of kidney
trouble, caused nearly ten thousand
deaths in 1913. in the state OF New
York alone. Therefore, it behooves
us to pay more attention to the health
of these most important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has
had remarkable success as a. kidney
remedy is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great Kidney, Liver and Bladder
Remedy.
The mild and healing influence of
this preparation, in most cases. is
soon realized, according to sworn
statements and verified testimony of
those who have used the remedy.
II you feel that your kidneys re-
quire attention, and wish a sample

.ROuMAN|A DECIDES
TO ENTER CONFLICT

Geneva, Dec. THE Journal de
Geneve publishes dispatch from
Bucharest. which says that Roumania
has decided definitely to enter the
war on the side of the allies
This decision, according to the dis
patch, is in accordance with the wish
of the entire country, including King
Ferdinand and all the Roumanian
statesmen, with the exception of the
minister of finance, M. Marghiloman.
The question Of when Roumania will
make her entry into the conflict is be-
ing discussed, one side desiring to
avoid winter campaign, but the milf
tary authorities express the fear that
Servia may be defeated before the
spring.
The attitude of Bulgaria still re-
mains doubtful. Greece, Servia and
Roumania have proffered certain con-
cessions, which, however, Sofia seems
not to consider sufficient inducement.

ADMIRAL MAHAN,
i. S. NJ IS DEAD

Washington, Dec. 2.-Rear Admiral
Alfred r. Mahan, u. S. NJ, retired, ac-
claimed in naval circles as the great
est modern writer on naval strategy"
died at the naval hospital here. He
was seventy-four years old. Death
was due to heart disease.
The admiral had been in feeble
health for several weeks, but he was
not taken to the hospital until last
Saturday, and it was not generally
known that his condition was critical.
Admiral Mahan had greatly over
taxed his strength in study of the ma
val operations in the present Euro
pean conflict.
The admirars literary accomplish.
ments had been widely recognized. In
1904 Oxford university, England, con-
ferred the degree of D. C.. L. upon him
and later he was awarded the degree
of LII. D. by Cambridge, England;
Harvard, Yale, McGill and Columbia
universities.

Paul Street.
Charles Gurin, twenty-eight years OF
age, was shot and killed on the street

London, Dec. 1.-THE battle, or Sc
