The flu ture jurist received his education in the Georgia schools and the Univer- sity of Georgia, Washington and Lee University and Bethany College. It was while a student at the latter in- stitution that he met and married Miss Clarinda Huntington PendIeton, of Bethany, w. Va. He was married and admitted to the bar in the same year, 1879, at the age of 22, and be- gan his legal career in Augusta, Ga, where he practiced law for nearly a quarter of a century. In the mean time he served as a member of the Georgia House of Representatives and as a commissioner to codify the laws of his native state. He was elevated to the bench as associate justice of the Supreme Court of Georgia in 1908. and in 1910 he was appointed to the supreme tribunal of the repub- lie. Justice Lamar was one of the

AUTOMOBILES.


 The first experimental automobile built in the United States was the in vention of E1wood Haynes, who was born in Portland, Ind, 58 years ago today. Haynes began his inventive career while still in his teens by con structing an apparatus for. making oxygen gas. After graduating from Worcester Polytechnic Institute he became principal of the high school in his native town. Later he became superintendent of an oil and gas com pany, and it was while thus engaged that he began work on his "horse- less carriage.'' After three years of labor he succeeded in making a ma chine that would run, and in 1894 he exhibited his self-propeIIed ve- hicle in Chicago. On it's trial trip the car attained a speed of six and a half miles an hour. This automobile, the oldest in existence, is now exhib- ited at the Smithsonian Institute in
 Washington. At about the same time Charles E. Duryea, of Reading, Pa., was experimenting along the same lines, and a little later Alexander Winton. of Cleveland, invented an en- gindM hich resulted in the first auto mobile that was produced commerce. ally and extensively sold.

He is AT years old, and en- tered the navy when in his teens. He early devoted his time and atlents to the scientific side of naval war fare. For a time he specialized in torpedoes, but with the development of the aeroplane and airship as a new branch of warfare he turned his at tention in that direction. Prior to the war he was connected with the naval intelligence department of the admiralty Last month, when it was decided to place the royal naval air service under the direction of a flag officer. Admiral Vaughn Lee was chosen as the officer best fitted for the new job. He has charge of both personal and material of this branch of the naval service.
