' For Auto Owners

Things Which Owners andOpeerators of Motor Cars J

Should Know

More than 30 States are now engaged in State highway improvementwork.

Special attention will be paid tothe automobile as a war agent dur- -

Wing the coming maneuvres in Massachusetts.

Hat manufacturers are now com-plaining that the motor car has hada bad effect on the stiff hat indus-try, because of the popularity of caps.

In place of the skepticism of ayear ago," it is now noticeable thatbanks and bankers are ' Quick, to in-vest money in the automobile tradethrough money, loans.

In order to know personally how,when and where the money votedby the recent Pennsylvania Legisla-ture for good roads will be expended.Governor Tener, of that State, hasbeen making an extensive automo-bile tour. At Easton friends present-ed him with an electric torch to lighthis way 0 Philadelphia.

Motor truck agents throughout thecountry report a rush of orders sincethe recent hot spell, due largely, theybelieve, to the number ot hoistedovercome. In New York City alonemore than 1,200 horses are estimatedto have died from the heat duringthe eleven days of the torrid temper-ature.

In two years there will not be ahorse-draw- n 'bus in all Paris. Thecompany operating these 'buses hasmade an agreement by which it willabandon the use of horse-draw-n

vehicles on June 1, 1913. Therewere 98,000 horses in service withinParis at the close of 1900. In 1909,notwithstanding the increased population and traffic of the city, theyhad diminished to 78,000, and arestill decreasing at the rate of about2,000 per year.

There is one State highway engineer in this country who believes itwill not be long before the roadsin the Uriited States are on a levelwith the ideal highways of Europe.This is Major W. W. Crosby, chief engineer of the Maryland HighwayCommission, who. .in a communica--tion to the Good Roads Board of thefAmerican Automobile Association, expresses his opinion of the development of the science of road construction in this country. He said thatin the matter of road surface con-struction the best practice In theUnited States is away in advance ofthe foreign.

Automobile thieves have been boldof late and the wires from varioussections of the country report tak-ings.. Some small garages have beenentered and in other cases machineshave; been driven away, from thecurbs.

Ah automobilist reports that themost dangerous bridge in Massachu-setts is to be found at Cheapside,near Greenfield. This is a coveredbridge 103 years old. It is a two-wa- y

affair, with narrow paths oneither side for vehicles.

The Capital Club, the oldest bicy-cle club in Washington, has disband-ed because of the advent of motor-cycles and automobiles. The CapitalClub , was organized when theold high-wheel- ed hard-rubber-tir- ed

bicycle was fashionable.Colonel T. Coleman duPont, the

Delaware powder magnate, look up-on the fine new stone highway whichis to run ,the length of that Stateas, in a sense, his monument. Heis preparing to devote the greaterpart of his tine to the surveying andbuilding of the road, being deter-mined that it shall be properly lo-cated and constructed.

Missing in one cylinder may becaused by that cylinder having aleak around the valve or valve cageseats, by the inlet valve opening toomuch and not closing as quickly athe others. 7or by a valve not seatingat all, or by that cylinder being car-bonized. ' These things cause the en-gine to take , a different mixture. Ifthe cylinders are right the same carburetor adjustment will suit all.

Ithaca, N. Y., has a garage with anovel set of cages for individual carsAny one storing his- - machine findsthe floor divided off into spaces largeenough to accommodate the varioussizes of cars. There are large doorsand sections arc built up of iron bars,so that they look like big animalcages. The owner or driver backs biscar into . a cage and then it is lock-ed up. No one can get to it unlesshe has a key for the cage and thatmakes supervision easy.

Starting out on a hot morning, witha long drive ahead, every precautionshould be taken to prevent mishapsIt should be remembered that an en-gine runs better as it goes on. There-fore, the thing to do is to start offat a moderate pace, and let the en-gine warm to its work. If it isright at the beginning it will be go-ing perfectly at the end of twentyor thirty miles. By that time every-thing will be going just right, theengine being warm, well lubricatedand delivering its maximum of pow-er.

This is the season of the yearwhen it is no uncommon sight in thecity to see a number of cars stand-ing at the street curbs with cloudsof eteam issuing from their radiatorcaps. Overheating of the enginemay be caused by many things, as in-

sufficient water circulation, impropertiming or insufficient lift to exhaustvalves. Either too weak or too richa mixture burns slowly and gives upa larger proportion 01 neat to tnecylinder head and wall than a per-fect mixture does. A poor sprayoverheats, so does poor oil, and like-wise the too constant use of the low-spe- ed

gear.The; obnoxious smell that is gome-tim- es

associated with an automobileis not always due to overlubricationIn most cases this odor is due to oilor grease leaking from the gear boxand thrown by the shaft on to thehat exhaust pipe. At this point thepipe may not be hot enough to reallyburn the oil up immediately, but itgradually fries it and makes the mostunpleasant odor in so doing. Theremedy is a simple and obvious one.As a rule, the leakage, if round theprimary shaft of the gear-bo- x bear-ing, cannot be stopped, and the thingto do is to protect the exhaust pipefrom the splashes. This can alwaypbe done by fitting a thin Iron shieldan inch or two from the exhaust pipeand between it and the line of theoil splashes.

To illustrate the tremendous Im-petus which has been given to thenation-wid- e movement for improvedpublic highways, the United StatesOffice of Public Roads has prepareda chart which shows that nearly 15,-00- 0

f yesterday. It took 11 Innings to doI it, and In spite of the cloudy weatherabout 2,000 fans were out to indulge

! In the whoopla. antics. The fieldingon both sides was brisk, five double

; plays being turned, off. Bridgeport."Srot credit for four. Hi Ladd madeseveral fine running catches and got

i a double play unassisted In the fourthwhen he ran In back of second, nab-be- d

Hlckey's fly and then touched theI bag before Connery could Teturn.' ' Freddy Gibbs started to twirl forthe locals, tout he was wild and Man-- 1ager McCann took him out after fourInnings. Hartford had tapped himfor only one run, but the local man--

I ager saw that the contest would prob-jab- ly

be decided by one tally from theway "Wilson was pitching, so he didthe proper thing and sent Uppy Up-

ham to the rescue. The Ohio flingerlet Hartford down with one safety inthe seven innings he worked, and they

i sever dented the hon-dis- h. He wasaccorded gJ6d support In the pinches.

Pete Wilson had the same old sign. on the Mechanics.f "He mowed the: heavy swatters down In the same old

winning runjHartford chalked up a tally in the

t first round. Gloomy Gus Soffei drewa pass and went to second on a pass-ed ball. Jim Hart sacrificed Soffeito third and Gus scored when High

f lifted a sacrifice fly to Ladd. Bridge--port got the run back in the first.

I Skipper Eley got three balls and twoj strikes and then belted one to right

for three bases. Lou Litschi singledthrough the Infield and Eley coun-

ted.Runs were scarce from that time on.

The Mechanics looked like a good betI In the eighth when Upham Ted offI with - a triple to left, but Wilson putI the screws on. Eley died on a ground-- ;er to Rehg" and Litschi and Crook

; whiffed. In the ninth Ruell and' Kauff walked with one down, -- but,towe fanned and Wilson got Stone's

Nelson smashed his plane in making:his first flight. He had gone Kbouttwo miles away from the field andwas returning, when he struck an airpocket. jn attempting a quick land-ing one of his planes hit a telephonewire, throwing him out and causingthe machine to land sideways. Nelsonhimself was uninjured.

Waterbury and Springfield Mana-

gers Mix it up" After Ex-

citing Game

Waterbury, July 31. Through therowdy actions of the Springfield play-ers, almost a riot was caused hereyesterday afternoon. Genest ofSpringfield "spiked Ahearn, the Wa-terbury catcher, and the two mixedit up for some time, it requiring thepolice several minutes to separate thecombatants. As a fitting finale forthe work of the rowdy players, DanO'Neil. the Waterbury owner, andManager Jack Zeller had a fierce bat-tle after the game but fans separatedthe men before there was "any greatdamage. A short time ago, Gardellaof Snrine-fio- l A threw a. bat t Tvnr

rSwanson while in a game in'TSpring- -nem ana .fresident rracy am not taseany notice of it but it is said he willact upon the disgraceful proceedingsof yesterday.

The start of the big row yesterdaycame in the seventh inning, althoughGenest and Ahearn had been scrap-ping all through the game. In theseventh, Genest was on third andBall was at bat for Springfield. Man-ager Zeller, gave the secret signal forthe squeeze play, dropping his handkerchief on the ground. Ball buntedand Genest came in like a runawayelephant on the rampaged He waslate in sliding but he struck Ahearnabout the knee with both feet.Ahearn was not badly spiked. Themen were piled up on the ground,with Ahearn on top and he began tofight. The two players clawed eachother and rolled over and over snarl-ing and punching but neither one wasin a position to get in a knockoutblow.

All through the game, Springfieldplayers passed remarks with fans inthe grandstand and much ill feelingwas aroused. Finally O'Neil told Zel-ler to order his men to cut it out ashe was afraid there would be trouble.After the game. O'Neil and Zellermet at the players' gate and O'Neilsaid: "Zeller, you are to blame forall of this." Zeller made an insult-ing remark to O'Neil and the Water-bury magnate buckled into the youngSpringfield manager in great shape.He caught him by the neck and grip-ped Zeller with all his great strengthbut the Springfield manager brokeaway and fetched a right uppercutto O'Neil's jaw. Thi9 aroused thefighting blood in the veteran and thetwo men were at each other hot andheavy, slugging each other until, fansinterfered and separated them.
