Climbs Desoto Steps
In Brush Runabout
Savanah, Ga’ - Marh 30.
The spectacle of an automobile
driven up the Bull street steps of
the DeSoto hotel, racing around on
the spacious porches and making
the descent into the street again
about as easy as it went up, was
the sensation witnessed by a large
crowd from the hotel and street to
day.
W. C. Mahoney, with a Carter
car, made the first attempt, but did
not negotiate the steps. W. D.
Brunn, representing the Columbia
cars, then telephoned to a garage
for a Brush, drove the small car up
the steps on one side of the porch
around the veranda and down by
the other flight.
Brunn is a veteran step-cliniber.
He made the ascent of Pike’s Peak
in a Brush.—Constitution.
