Auto races, with some Of Americas

Dickinson who has just completed ne
gotiations for the speed contests with
the International Motor Contest asso-
citation.
Saturday, Sept. 4th and Sunday
Sept. sth, the opening days of the an
nual expedition have been selected as
automobile race days by Secretary
Dickinson.
Sig. Haugdahl, the Scandinavian
speed star, Fred Horey former worlds
track champion, Leon Duray, French
speed marvel; Bob Cline, youthful
BriscOe star; Louis Disbrow, ex-
worlds champion; r. Burr Lampkin,
English racer and other veterans Of
the dirt track world are listed among
the starters.
Purses amounting to over $4,000

cause in no other sport are so many
thrills combined and this is particu-
larly true of the dirt track branch.
AS Secretary Dickinson is determin-
ed to attract the most noted circular
course pilots to Detroit, he has put up
prize money greatly in excess of that

How the Town Of Tombstone, Arizona
Acquired Its Somewhat Crew.

prospector's curious sense of hu.
NOR was responsible for the naming of
Tombstone, AriZ. According to James
r. Duncan, who went there in 1879
the town was founded in that year by
Ed Schieffelin, mining prospector.
Schiefelin called his mine near the
site of the present courthouse Tomb
stone mine Duncan said, because the
region was full of drab rocks that re-
sembled tombstones.
Tradition has it, however that
SchieiIeIin's friends frequently rallied
him for his faith i'm the locality. and
told him that he would find his tomb
stone here. After the prospector had
made his fortune here, in good-natured
irony lie is said TO have named the
town after the fate that had been pre-
dicted for him.
Schiefelin was found dead in a
log cabin in the state of Washington
May II, 1897. According to his wishes,
his body was taken back to his "tomb-
stone" and buried near there. His
pickAX and other tools were buried
with him. Above the grave his friends
erected a simple monument. fashioned
after the rude manner of prOspec-

How Batteries Are Tested.

If you are away from home and

terry Of which the polarity markings
are Obliterated here is a simple test
that will instantly reveal To you which
is the positive and which the negative
pole. 1t is given by Windsor Crowell
in the Popular Science Monthly.
Get fresh potato; cut a slice of
one side, and stick the terminal wires
into the cut section, about an inch
apart. The potato I'm contact with one
wire begins to turn green. This is
the positive pole, therefore the other
is the negative.
Suppose you have no potato handy
TO make the test, proceed as follows
Pour a little Of the electrolytic solu-
ton from the battery into glass.
place both wires in it, well apart, and
watch the bubbles rise from them.
Many more will rise from the negative
side than from the positive.

Why Workers Demand Music.

1t is fairly well-knOwn that In GER
tain parts of the world natives refuse
to work at roadbuilding and kindred
pursuits unless they have the accom-
paniment Of music. The part played
by music in sailors tasks Is common
knowledge. Less known by far Is the
role of music In experimenting. and
its delicate adjustment to the various
colors involved. In British India the
carpets are woven TO particular
tune. The custom harks back to
time immemorial. The leader of the
group chants the song in mo-
notonous. quasi-liturgicaI style, and
the song varies according to the color

OF BIG VALUE IN AVIATION.
The weather bureau Of the
United States department Of az
riculture gathered a great deal
Of valuable information tor
army and navy aviators during
the war and for mail service
aviation since that time by
means Of a kite to which was at
tached a self-recording instru-
ment, the meteorograph. Some
Of the difficulties experienced
are shown by an incident that
occurred March 16 at Leesburg,
Ga. In order to attain the
height desired, number Of kites
had been sent up tandem. They
consisted of strong wooden
frames about z by z by 3 feet.
Each kite was covered with
about II yards of fine cambria
and was attached to fine piano
wire. They were let out and
hauled in by reel operated by
electric motor. Due to a defect
I've splice, four Of the kites with
about 3 miles of wire broke
away and few about IS miles
before the wire became en-
tangled in tree. A farmer
telephOned the news to the aero
logical station, but before the
party sent out to recover the
Kites could reach them some
negroes had wrecked the first
one and stolen the cloth, which
was later found In nine pieces
In various cabins. The other
three kites, when the first one
was separated from them, es-
capped and flew about three miles
farther. During the flight, how
ever, the wire became entangled
with boy and mule blowing
In a field. The boy grasped the
wire and cut and burned his
hands. The mule became so
entangled In the wire that the
help of three men was required
TO release him. The three kites
were finally caught in another
tree which was cut down by
another party Of negroes, and,
In falling, wrecked the second
kite, which was dismantled by
the negroes. The two remaining
kites again escaped, flew about
3 miles farther and landed in
one of the tallest pine trees in
the region. The third kite had
meteorograph attached which
was recovered unchanged. A
heavy rain came on, however,
and the two remaining kites
were broken up and finally aban-
dOned.
