ing intense interest among motorists

race an average of 81 miles was made

than at any time OF the last race
IN that connection the improve

are wei worthy OF mention IN the
Counties where the poorest time was
made citizens went to work on the
roads, with the result that il is posi-
Gle to make much better time. Any

DISEASE BEATEN BY GUNS.
Battle Ratio Exceeded tho Death Rate
From Disease.

Washington, Feb. 15.-Battle
death rates in the American army
curing the great war exceeded the
;.>ath rates from disease, Con. March
announced to-day in making public
statistics prepared by the general
staff In past wars disease killed
liany more men than lost their lives
under fire.
The battle death rate for the en-
tire American army in this war was
20 per 1000 per year. The disease
death rate was Z per 900 per year
in the expeditiOnary forces and six
teen in the army at home.
The battle death rate of the Brit
ish cxpcditi0nary forces was given
rs no per 1000 per year.
Gen. March said that the lower
neath rate from disease undoubtly
vas due largely to the inoculation
requirments Of the army. and,
secondly, to the efficient work Of the
corps. But for the Influenza
epidemic. he said, the disease rate
would have been cut in half.
