REMARKABLE RECORD MADE
ON MICHELIN CORD TIRES

Mrs. Adelaide Rogers and daugh-
ter, Miss Frieda, who returned re-
Gently from a trip in her Buick from
Hartford, Connecticut repcr, re-
markable tire record on the trip. The
entire trip up was made in eight and
a half days in which time they tray
elled 1,546 miles without changing
tires. They put on a new equipment
of Michelin cords just before leaving.
The trip both ways was made with
out the slightest car trouble OF any
kind. Three small punctures occurred
on the road but fortunately all three
were within close distance of a gar
age, so that the tires were fixed up
and put back on the car each time.
Miss Rogers drove the car the entire
distance, in all something over 5000
miles.

BE CAREFUL In THE
USE OF ELECTRICAL
ACCESSORIES ON CAR

1t costs the car owner money to use
electrical accessories on his car il
they depend upon the storage battery
for power, according to c. o. Pinch,
the local Willard expert
The stock battery of an automo-
bile" says MI Pinch, lis carefully
designed to fill the need of the indi-
vdual Car and its electrical equip
ment
IF the car owner uses extra lights
cigar lighters, trouble finders, and ac-
cessories of that character, he is
really overlooking the Battery and
will in a short time practically ex-
haust it, if he depends upon the gem
orator alone to replace the power that
he is using.
"To prevent battery exhaustion
caused by these extras, the battery
must be charged at regular intervals
at a service station or the generator
must be readjusted to feed power
enough to it to take care OF the extra
lead
IT is entirely probable that the LAT
ter cannot lie done, for the generator
along with the rest of the electrical
equipment is designed to fit the nor
NAL needs of the car. In this case.
then, the car owner should not be
surprised and grieved when he is
called upon to pay fer outside charg-
ing.
ITO repeat, the motorist must he

electrical equipment.

ped back into second, finding only two
opportunities during the remainder
OF the trip to use third speed. There
was a climb OF eight miles over a
rough, rocky and tortuous trail which
permitted no breathing spell until the
summit was reached. Here the Over
land was headed toward the railroad
Platform, the terminus of the little
train that carries tourists up the ia
nous New Hampshire mountain. A
hurried flight up the steps leading to
the platform, leap that took the
Overland clear of the railroad tracks
and then the final scramble up the
steps to the Tip Top House and the
Overland had made a record which
will remain unbroken until some au-
tomohle scales the very walls of the
little structure on the mountain top.

IRISH ROYALISTS
In DIRE STRAITS
ARE REACHING LONDON

London Aug. Numbers of
southern Irish loyalist refugees, in
dire straits, are daily arriving in Lon
don. In many cases, they are women
and children who have lost their
Ereadwinners and frequently their
sole possessions are the clothes they
wear, their homes and other poses
sions having been destroyed.
Under the Malicious Injury Act, all
these people are entitled to compensa-
ton, leviable on the local rates, but
although DEGREES have been granted
for sums aggregating millions OF
pounds, very few have been paid. 1t
is said that in consequence of ter
rorism, lawyers in southern Ireland
are frequently unable to prosecute
claims against the local authorities,
as they have Leen threatened with
death should they do so.
The London committee of the Irish
Unionist Alliance IS now taking up
such claims, and is preparing an APP
peal to the British government asking
that compensation. both in respect OF
life and property, shall be made a
first charge upon any moneys that
( N ay be handed over by the British ex-
cEequer to the southern Irish parila-
Inent.

Is Held by Nevada County Officers
After Entering Store at
Emmet.

Aaron Parks, the white youth who
escaped from the Hampstead county
Jail early last Friday morning, was
captmlad on Monday evening in the
woods between Emmet and Prescott.
Those participating in the lively
chase were Constable Fred Murray,
Luther Willingham, city marshal,
and Will Martin, deputy marshal.
The negroes who broke Jail with
Parks were with him when the Off
GERS sighted the fugitives but the
negroes outran the officers and made
their escape. They have not yet
been apprehended.

vada officers as Sam Donals and said
that he was from California. Later
he confessed that h2 and two negroes
were the trio who escaped from the
Hampstead county Jail early last

horses near Washington, which they
later turned loose and that they en-
tered the Emmett Mercantile Cos
store at Emmett on Saturday night,
taking several suits of clothes, shoes
and shirts. He also admitted that
they entered a farm house near En-
met on Sunday night while the fam
lily was gone to church and they
cooked and ate their supper there.
After the arrest, constable Muir
ray says that Parks offered him a
bribe of $11 to release him. The Of
ficer did nto take the offer seriously
but instead took Parks to Prescott
and landed him in the Nevada county
Jail.
The preliminary hearing was held
Tuesday and the youth was bound
over to await the action Of the grand
jury. Later he will be returned to
stand trial here for burglarizing a
store at Fulton last December.
