Followers of golf throughout the
United States and Canada will be
glad to learn that the reported death
Of James Braid, famous Scotch profess
Eional, was based upon a case of mis-
taken identity, and that Braid is very
much alive and looking forward to
the time when conditions abroad will
permit him to visit this country and
play in series of exhibition matches.
Early in the month a short des'
patch from London announced that
James Braid, the famous golfer, had
been killed while boarding a moving
train in the Waterloo station. 1t is
further stated that Braid had Deen
thrown backwards from the train and
had died on the way to the hospital,
apparently from a fractured skull.
The report was given wide publicity
and it was not until recently that it
was learned that the man killed was
not the open champion of 19U1-O5-0G-
OSLO.
The James Braid who was killed in
the manner described was profess
SIGNAL golfer employed by the South
sea Club and so far as known no rela-
tive to the James Braid, who, with
Ray, Vardon, ]. H. Taylor and one or
two other players, stand out as the
most famous opponents of the ancient
and honorable game.
1t is unfortunate that the golf
courses in Honolulu are nUt in the
best Of shape at the time when Jack
Neville is a visitor. Charles E. Maud
has been a great booster for Hawaii.
He was here last year, and returned
for a little golf and sunshine. 1t is TO
be hoped that Neville vii. r1Clong his
honeymoon tour enough to be able to
play more golf here.

MILBURN EXTENSION.

The Milburn Wagon Company, of To-

factory in that city, in order to supply
the demand for Milburn Light Electrics.
according to Arthur Foraker. who rep
resents the Mnburn in Washington.
At all times during the last twelve
months the demand has been greater than
the company could supply, because Of
limited production facilities.
The success Of the Milburn product in
dicate the advantages OF the low hung
light electric. Being low hung, the car
possesses the maximum OF safety in
driving, Is easy to operate and most con-
yenient for passengers entering and de-
parting from it. Its light weight also
enhances the advantages of the low hung
body and assures the greatest amount OF
service on a minimum amount of fuel.
Another distinction on the part of the
Milburn product is its modern seating ar

LITTLE GIANT TRUCKS
WILL BURN KEROSENE

The Chicago Pneumatic Tool Company,
makers Of Little Giant trucks, will an
nounce this week probably the most i'm
portant event In its history.
1t will announce the new Duntley 'hy-
dro- pneumatic, gas generator" that usins
gasoline and kerosene in fifty-hfty pro-
portions and water and air, will reduce
the cost of fuel almost 50 per cent and
give tremendously more mileage. 1t is
now being built into all Little Giants and
It Is also being manufactured for Ford
pleasure cars.
John A. Hamilton. manager of the fac
tory branch of the company in Washing
ton. will make test runs today with a
two-ton Little Giant to prove that on
one gallon of the gasoline-kerosene mix
ture the truck will run thirteen to four
teen miles. The fuel viii cost, with gas
oIine at % cents and kerosene at cents,
l6 cents a gallon. One gallon OF straight
gasoline will drive the ordinary two-ton
truck about seven and one-half miles.
The operation of the Duntley generator
Is simple. There are no moving parts.
The vaporized mixture of coal oil and
gasoline comes in contact with the water
vapor. The resultant mixture consisting
exploded and complete combustion takes
place. leaving no carbon on the spark
plugs, and with no smoke whatever.
While the device may be applied to any
pleasure car it is an exclusive feature OF
Little Giant trucks, and will be supplied
when so requested.

never be threatened so seriously, emer-
gencies may arise when large bodies OF
men will have to be hurried from one
part OF the city to another to preserve
order, or for other duty.
Just as soon as Major Pullman and
the Home Defense League have accepted
the services Of the members Of the asso-
ciation, there viii be training tests and
plans made for mobilization.
The matter OF car licenses for dealers
was also taken up. as under a strict
Interpretation OF the law dealer can
not transfer tag from one car to an
other. and on this account great hard
ship is laid upon the dealers OF Wash
ington.
A committee consisting of S. A. Lut-

be done in the matter. This committee
