for the purpose of getting the troop
on its feet
No particular effort has been made
to secure men for the troop, but Mr..

daily from men in this city who are
interested, and he is sure that by Mon

enough men to furnish a full war

]. BROWN TELLS IF RACE
 POSSIBILITIES

Automobile racing in the big west is a personal matter, as much Sd as were the famous turf contests between owners of celebrated Kentucky stables in the heyday of the running futurities and handicaps," says Bert O. Brown, of the Brown Dryer company.
 The cars are not specially con- structed racing creations imported from Europe, but American stock cars with no change except that they have been stripped for speed-stripping consisting of the removal of the tour ing body and lenders, anl the substitu ton of a couple of light bucket seats. The drivers are not professionals, but owners of their own carS--in the game fo,' the love of it. and because they like to see the best man, ana the best car, Win.
 Tn the amateur contests con- ducted in the West this past racing season, no car had a greater popu- lar following, deserved by virtue of kinds of competition, thar the Chrevolet -Four Ninety" driven by G. w. Moody of Elko, Neya. This car competed in every imaginable sort of contest and closed the sea son with the remarkable record of having won every race in which it finished. In the state of Nevada the car took part in 15 races alone, most of them road races, through difficult country and won F out of 15. In the three races it lost, it was forced out by tire trouble and in no instance was laid up by en- zine trouble or mechanical difficult ties of any kind"

POSTOFFlCE IN INDIA
 USES FLEET OF AUTOS

The presidency postmaster at Mad ras. India. last February made an eX pertinent by using three motor vans in stead of horse vans for the convey ance of mail bags to sub-offices in the city
 The experiment was the first of it's kind in India and it was so successful that the entire horse service is now to be abolished. Three lorries con- verted into vans were added to the first three. and fof> other vans have now been brought into use. The mo- tor fleet is now complete.
 It is stated that substitution of mo- tor vehicles for the old horse vans has resulted in a considerable saving to the government: and. as the postal de partment in Madras has to maintain q stable of forty seven horses, this is surely understandable. The cars, more over, have reduced the time of transit between the several offices. and it is anticipated that when mail steamers return to their former regularity of ar rival, and when mail trains run with their former speed the advantage of the new system will be seen by the public in the shape of earlier deliver ies and later dispatches.
