,een five days and seven hours on the


road.
The Washington team is given one
hour in which to carry the message
from the White House TO the Baltimore
city courthouse. The second relay
team will have two hours and fifty min
utes in which to- reach the exchange
point in Philadelphia. Two hours and
half is the time given to a Philadel-
phia team in which to make the third
relay into New York city. The time to
be consumed by all other teams Is out
lined in the same manner, the message
travelling day and night and no allow
ance being made for, time lost at re-
lay points, Each team will make siren
uous efforts to cover its allotted dis
lance in the time specified.
The Washington riders, Frank 5.
Long. F. l.. Leishear and ]. Mel. Sea-
brook. mounted on Indian motor cycles,
will this afternoon go from the White
House to the exchange point in Balti-
more, complying with orders issued ny
Chairman Donovan for a complete re-
hearsal of the relay July II. Riders all
along the route are taking part in this
rehearsal, the purpose being to "a
miliarize themselves with road condl-
lions and speed regulations. While the
schedule calls for very fast time to
be made by each relay team, Chairman
Donovan has issued orders that
safety first is to be the motto and
the riders are expected to avoid acct
through towns en- route.
Efforts to secure suspension of the
speed regulations both in the District
and in Maryland along the route to be
covered by the Washington relay team
promise to be successful. in which case
the local team expects no difficulty IN
making the time called for by the
schedule The Washington riders Will
be met at the Baltimore city line by a
committee of riders from that city and
escorted to the exchange point. Many
Washington riders. members OF the
Federation of American Motor Cyclists
and of various local clubs, have vol
unteered to patrol the course to be fol-
lowed by the relay riders and assist IN
warning traffic between 10 and IL
o'clock. 80
The case in which the message will
be carried is furnished by the National
Capital Motor Cycle Club, and Is a
substantial affair capable of with
standing the rough usage to which 1T
will be subjected. A waterproof metal
box is covered with a sole leather case
and provided with shoulder strap. After
reception of the message the case Will
remain locked until it arrives at Its
destination.

CIGAR AS TONGUE PROTECTOR
cldfeld, Having Suffered Once,
Takes Precautions in All Races.

Why does Barney Oldfeld always have
a cigar in his mouth when he drives in
a race? This question is often heard In
the stands, but Oldf1eld does not do this
for effect, he does it for protection
alone. Several years ago, when Barney
was making a reputation for daring
and showing his ability to bust fences,
he bit his tongue in one of the smash
ups, which greatly inconvenienced him,
for some weeks.
After he got out of the hospital Bar
ney hit upon the stunt OF keeping a
cigar between his teeth during a race,
and while he has been in many bad
smash-ups and had several narrow es-
capes since he adopted the nicotine
speech insurance, he has always been
able to talk for himself Immediately
after the accident.

Pimples. sores and boils usually re-
suit from toxins, poisons and impurl-
ties which are generated In the bowels
and then absorbed into the blood
through the very ducts which should
absorb only nourishment to sustain the
body.
1t is the function Of the kidneys to
fiieer impurities from the blood and
east them out in the form of urine, bur
I'm many instances the bowels create
mere toxins and impurities than the
kidneys can eliminate, then the blood
uses the skin pores as the next best
means of getting rid of these impuri-
cies which often break out all over the
skin in the form of pimples .
The surest way TO clear the skin OF
these eruptions, says noted authori-
ty, is to get from any pharmacy about
four ounces of Jad Salts and take a
tablespoonful In a glass Of hot water
each morning before breakfast for one

ROME, Nov. 3.--Advices from the northern battle front state that the Italian troops have won number of brilliant victories and forced the Austrians from a number of impor- tant positions which they have held for weeks despite the heavy shelling to which they were subjected.
 Military experts assert that the cap ture of the positions were vital for the success of the Italian winter cam paign as the Italian forces, had they failed in the capture of the positions. would have been forced to withdraw from territory captured after weeks of fighting.
 The news of the victories by the troops at the front has caused pa triotic demonstrations to be held in many cities and "On to Vienna" is the cry of the Italian nation today.

 REDUCE FORTS
reutons are Meeting with Resistance In Capture of Nish Forts Where
 Serbians Making Last Stand.

AMSTERDAM, Nov. 3.-1t is re- ported that the defenders of the Nish forts re offering a stubborn resls- tante End that the Austrians are talk ing big siege guns to reduce the forts. The guns of the forts are said to out range the field guns of the Teutonic of Bulgarian armies and that Hull in the attack has been ordered pend- ing the arrival of the siege guns from Austria. The Teutonic troops are now in control of the railroad from Belgrade to the forts guarding Nish, enabling the big guns to be brought up for the reduction of the forts.
 Berlin reports also state that the Teutons, operating in Serbia from sarajevo, have captured the city of Ushitze, the most important railroad center in western Serbia.
 It is believed that the fall of Nish will complete the crushing of Serbian resistance as the Teutons will then have control of the railroad to Con- stantinople.

NORTHWESTERN .
 DAMAGED IN DRYDOCK

The steamer Northwestern, which was damaged when she went aground on Pennock island, near Ketchikan, on her last trip north, suffered great CT damage while being drydocked at Seattle to be repaired. It appears that while the vessel was half way up the dock the marine cable broke, let ting the vessel plunge seaward, wrecking the railroad and further damaging her hull. The accidents happened at the Winslow drydock and as the other docks were full the Northwestern was unable to be re- paired, causing her sailing to be in- definitely postponed and the City of Puebla chartered for second trip to Southwestern Alaska ports.

LONDON Nov. 3.-It is reported from Bucharest that the Bulgarian and Teutonic forces are hammering at the forts of the Serbian city of Nish, and that number of forts guarding the city have fallen. It is believed that the city authorities of Nish will surrender in order to pre- vent the city from being destroyed by bombardment.
 Advices received from Salonika late last night are to the effect that the Serbian capital has again been moved to Mitrovitza, near the border of Montenegro. It is also reported the Bulgarians have captured the former capital of Monastir, near the border of Greece, and that the Seribans are crossing into Greece where they are surrendering to the Greek troops and will be interned.
 The Serbian army is reported to have stripped the city of Nish of ev- erything of military value to the Teu- tons and have sent the official papers to the new capital of Mitrovitza.

FUNSTON WANTS
 ID FIGHT MEXICO Secretary Garrison Refuses Permis- sion but Orders Troops to Re-
 turn Fire Across Border.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. B. General Funston, commanding the United States troops on the Mexican border, has wired Secretary Garrison of the war department for permission to cross the border at Agua Prieta to disperse Gen. Villas army, attacking the border town.
 General Villas troops are reported as occupying positions which causes stray bullets to enter Douglas, Ari- zona, endangering the lives of Ameri- can citizens. Nine Americans were injured during the attacks of Gen. Villa on Agua Prieta Monday night, and the Mexican rebel leader has ig- nored the demands of Gen. Funston that he change his position.
 Secretary Garrison has refused per mission for American troops to in- wade Mexico, but has again author ized Gen. Funston to return the fire of any Mexican force firing across the border and it is believed that the United States will engage in the bat tie over the Carranza positions.

GERMANS. UNITING
 10 DEFEAT WILSON
Democratic Leaders Believe that -ap- peal to Prejudice will not Work
 to Wilson's Detriment.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. B. Reports being received at the Demo- cratic headquarters here indicate that the German-American citizens are or ganizing in the eastern and middle western states to prevent President Wilson from securing the Democratic nomination for the presidency and to fight him in the election should he he the Democratic candidate.
 The Democratic leaders profess to regard the matter lightly and believe that the German-Americans in organ izing to oppose President Wilson se- curing the nomination will result in arousing the antagonism of the for mer 4 citizens of the nations with wh Germany is at war as well as '1hevtrue American who will resent the action of the Germans in organlz- ing to control the affairs of the na- tion. They believe the action of the Germans in opposing President Will son will result as in Chicago, when R. M. Sweitzer, the German candidate for the mayorality appealed to pre1- udice, aroused feeling of antago- nism which swept him to defeat. a
 It is admitted, however, that the opposition of the German vote to President Wilson and the certainty of the citizens from the countries rep resented by the Allies favoring him, has injected new feature in the com ing campaign which must be reckon ed with by both parties.

VILLAS ARMY IS
 REPORTED HUNGRY
Exhausted their Store of Munitions in Unsuccessful Attempts to
 tE"
 Capture Agua Prieta.


 DOUGLAS, Ariz., Nov. 3.-General Villas army attacking Agua Prieta, across the border from Douglas, is to have exhausted it's stores of munitions in the attacks Monday night and are withdrawing. The SOL diers are hungry and are raiding the district for food, terror izing the populace and threatening death to all who offer resistance.
 It is reported that General Villa is consumed with rage over the action of General Funston in taking up po- sitions paralleling Carranza's trenches and it is feared that Americans in Mexico who fall into his hands will receive scant courtesy if they are not executed on pretext of having aided Carranza's troops.
 Douglas has been intensely agitated during the battle across the border but has settled down and business is again normal. The hundreds of per sons who arrived from other cities to witness the battle have returned to their homes believing that the show is over.
