Rides a Week In
a Nonstop Auto

Fresno, Calf, Sept. 1.-THE feat
of S. U. Bergh, a Fresno newspaper
man, in occupying almost continu-
ously for week, seat as observ-
err in a Maxwell stunt" car, is put
forward as bold bid for a worlds
record and a prominent berth in
history's hall of fame.
The car was the first of the new
model shipped from Detroit to the
manufacturers representative in
Fresno. In order to give the gen.
eral public and the members of his
selling organization in adjoining
territory view Of the car, the
dealer determined to put it on The
road. To demonstrate the sturdy
quality of the car, the hood was
locked and sealed, and the run made
nonstop affair, under observa-
ton. The Fresno Herald assumed
charge of The trial and assigned
Mr.. Bergh, member of its staff,
to see to it that the motor should
repair or adjustment.
Mr.. Bergh fortified himself for
the week by good sleep and Slid
into his seat at the appointed mo-
ment-Saturday at noon. For all
day Sunday and until Monday night
he asked for no relief. The Max
well travelled continuously On
Monday night he was relieved for
q few hours by newspaper friend,
it being expressly stipulated that
no supplies were to be installed dur
ing Bergh's absence.
And SO the run proceeded to it's
end. The car made repeated visits
to Visalia, Porterville, Hartford and
other neighboring cities. Day and
night over rough roads and over
smooth-city pavements and coun-
try lanes, the Maxwell gided tire
less and buoyant. Drivers Were
changed every four hours but Bergh
rode on and on loliing at ease in
the deep cushions.
A big crowd saw the end of the
run and cneered car and Bergh 10
the echo. Bergh took the final read
over 1900 l4iles, averaging better
than 26 miles to the gallon of gas
Oline, and went over to the Herald
office to turn in his story. He then
bathed, ate square meal and went
to bed, complaining petulantly that
the mattresses seemed bit hard
when compared TO automobile up
holstery. After a hours of I'M
broken sleep lie reused, ate and
took another nap, after which he
said he was ready to start another
week of life on the road.

affected by the interference with ship

in a letter received by the editor Of a

This editor charges the board with

the board has decided to allow the re-

that the Administration, by this
course. shows that 1t prefers to see
the South prevented from selling its

Yuan May Assume Empcror's Robe

Peking, Aug. 16-President Yuan
Shi Kai is discussing with his imme-
diate supporters AMI Prof. Frank
johnson Goodnow Of John Hopkins
University, leaeal adviser to the Chill
nese government, the question OF pro-
claiming himself emperor.
Prof. Goodnow, it is understood,
approves the project. He obtained
the confidence of Yuan Shi Kai during
former critical times and has been
consulted on this question since his
arrival a month ago.
The news became public by the
deliberate publication in this morn
ing's newspapers Of accounts of the
formation by several prominent men
of an association for the purpose OF
discussing whether monarchy Is not
the better fmm of government for
China. The article quotes Prof.
e.. o.Innu as -. sring tlat for CHINA
monarchy is a better form of goV-
ernment IMAM a republic and that
conditions are different in China and
America, and 1t is impossible to trans
plant a system from one country TO
another
IT was learned from one of Yuan
Shi Kai'S immediate supporters that
if the project proved feasible the plan
Is to establish Il monarchy within two
years.
The news has created q Gcnsafl0n
in Peking and is being telegraphed
throughout the country.
