PAGE TWO THE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 3, 1911. WORLD of OTORT1 Rain Lays Dust For Fourth Hot Springs v Auto Run Saturday Over Hundred Will Make Tril That Many Already Kisrued Lip With Commit tee J lospitality Prepara tions at the Springs A motorist looked appraisingly at a muddy street, glanced at his nice shiny new runalHUit, and decided to turn right around and stay with the paved streets. As he was stepping into the ear, h friend shouted at him from the curb: "You going Saturday?" Where'.'" "Castle Hot Springs." "Why certainly. Yes. How is the road?" "Fine. Little muddy right now, but it will be great by the end of the week." "I'll go," very positively, "count on me!" That is the sort of a response they are making to the invitation to go to Castle Hot Springs for next week end. It may be too muddy right now to go touring about the city streets in any thing but a haybtirner, but come Sat urday, a lot of cars will be lined up for the great trip to the springs. It will be dry and firm on the Hot Springs road by Saturday unless, of course, it turns in and rains a lot more. They say the road from Glendale to the Junction is in better shape now than it has been in its history. The other end of it is always good being maintained by the hotel management for its auto stage line to the railroad. New River and the Agua Fria have been freshly brushed, and the sandy stretches be tween the two washes, have been miti gated considerably by the rains. Among those who have signed up for the trip are Power Conway, Dr. F. H. Redewill, Eugene Goldman, George Purdy Bullard, Paul Murphy, Judge Kent, Governor Hunt, Lamar Cobb, A. G. Dulmage, Charles Stauffer, Maurice O'Neill, Crag Pottinger, J. O. Debit, Fen Hildreth, Harry Kay, Geo. Van Scheck, will Irvin, C. J. McElroy. Hal. Bennett, C. M. Dubois, I H. Chalmers, R. G. Murphy. Already nearly a hundred are on the list, and Manager H. J. Meany of the Hot Springs Hotel, is wiring around for additional help, as the run is assum ing proportions far beyond the expec tations of the committee. Dealers Enthusiastic Several of the Phoenix automobile dealers are enthusiastic over the run. Wayland Wood was signed up last night by Dr. Redewill. He will pilot a Stutlebaker six with a big party. Charles McArthur has entered a Jeffrey Chesterfield Six. Ed Rudolph will drive a new Ford, I leading a section of four other Fords. I Eugene and Cass Redewill joined the party last night. ION M'OONALD FOR PHOENIX AS WINTER HOME FOR RACERS Famous Horseman Leaves Stable Here Until Opening of Pleasanton and Panama Pacific Tracks, More Horses Coming from East Lon, McDonald, the well known horseman, completed his stay on Phoe nix yesterday by instructing his train er. Avery to prepare to receive another carload of race horses, already on its way from the Indianapolis headquar ters. Then the great harness horse ex pert took his departure for Los Ange les, Pleasanton and the Panama-Pacific mile tracks. The phoenix stable will be main tained for a time, and then the pick of the goers selected for the Pleasanton meet. Mr. McDonald is now working between fifty and seventy-five horses each winter, and taking the best of the lot for the campaigns. - The Panama-Pacific exposition meet will start in June, and will attract the best horsemen from all directions. It is a notable fact, that the majority of the big fellows who will be at the San Francisco track, are the ones who sur prised every one and themselves with their performances on the. state fair oval here last month.

Since fair week, and its attendant gasoline excitement, have passed into the dusty files, folks have been for. getting that there is another rather immense automobile race in prospect. Intervening thrills cannot entirely al lay our taste for this merry sport, however, and now that definite prep arations are in order for the thous and mile El Paso to San Diego race, we will begin once more to pay a lot of attention to the doings of the greasy mechanics and the studious drivers and the strapped down rao ing cars and roa'd maps and mileage tables and gasoline supply stations and logging the route and doping the winners and estimating the speed and figuring how it ought to be done and decrying actual methods and generally making ourselves a heap of a nuisance. Two Phoenicians, one a winner and cne the last finisher in two fair week classics, have already signified their intentions of going into the next raco. C. M. Dubois, driver of the husky Cole in the Los Angeles, has n.-.t touched his car since the contest. but has had it shooting every day. He says of it: "I did not make the time that some of the others did, but I brought back a car that is in per fect condition except for a broken spring shackle. I'll repair that, change the spring hangers on t'12 back, just to suit me, and have the car ready for practice on the El Paso-San Diego race. Believe me, it won't he speed that will win it." Hugh Miller, winner of the El Paso-Thoenix race, was seen yester day by a Republican man, and tue following statement was elicited: "My Pope-Hartford is going in the other race. I am putting myself on the safe side when I say that I urn going to ENTER the race." -Hugh thought we were trying to pet him to say he would repeat his victory. A very cautious and sensible young man, is Hugh Miller. Dick llollingsworth, the traveling agent for the Chanslor-Lyon com pany of Los Angeles, had something to say about the race: "It won't be a speed event. The man who gets in his car and tours along until he comes to a stretch as smootfi as Adams street there, and then give 'er, the gun, will win it. And when he feels the back of fhe seat jamming him in the suspenders buckle, he had better yank his foot off the throttle. Then he may stand some chance of staying together for the long grind." It is understood here that the San Diego people have at last got their affairs straightened around so that something definite can be expected on prize money before long. It is said that nearly twenty-five thous and dollars will be cut among the first five cars to poke their dusty noses into the gate of the exposition grounds. El Paso has gone ahead quietly tirring up interest in the race, and now we see that same line of sturdy pilots who decorated the El Paso Phoenix entry list, laying back to get places in this longer and greiter race. Along the line it is the samo way. In Bisbee, Douglas, Tucson, Florence, there are mechanics sur veying fast cars with an eye to put ting the "pip" into them for the road race. o COPPER SITUATION IS ON THE UP GRADE That the situation in the copper in dustry in this state is gradually im proving is the statement of Mining In spector Bolin, who returned yesterday from an inspection trip through the northern districts. "Additional men are being put to work each week," said Inspector Bolin, and the general feeling is that condi tions are easier than they have been for gome time. Another factor that has tended to relieve the situation ma terially has been the slight increose in the price of copper, which has not been without, its effect on the amount of work now being done. o The president's final attitude to ward the Colorado strike situation Is awaited with confidence by the min ers who look for government opera tion. o A workman Is killed In 'the United States every 15 minutes; every 16 seconds a mechanic Is maimed. That is the toll labor pays to industry in life itself. i Smoke Here's Heap Big Joy 'Cool and fragrant as a September morn." That's what the pipe fans say of good old P. A. That's the music that every man sings who has given his old jimmy pipe a new tryout on our say-so that the P. A. patented process takes out the bite and the sting and leaves just pure smoke joy. the national joy smoke makes just tho most peacefulest pipe smoke that you or any man can crowd into the bowl of a jimmy pipe or roll into a makin's cigarette. P. A. never burned any man's tongue and it won't burn yours. Buy a tidy red tinful for 10c or a toppy red bagful for 5c or, better yet, invest in the famous P. A. crystal - glass humidor with the sponge in the top. Keeps the smoidngs pipefifc to the last pipefuL Say ! Shi I The crystal-glass Humidcr makes a cork ing fine Christmas present for men folks. At any store that' sells tobacco also in the tidy red tin, 10c, toppy red bag, Sc, and the pound and half-pound tins. R. J. REYNOLDS TOBACCO CO. WinsJoE-Saleia, N. C. 1 Copyright !14 R. J.
