WAGNER IN FIAT WONJTO RACES ALU AMERICAN AUTO RECORDS BROKEN IN SAVANNAH By the narrow margin of 50 seconds I.ouls Wagner won the first American Grand Prise automobile race yester day, and hung n;> a new American road record. In no motor race In history oifr such a long distance—moro than 400 miles-—has the finish been so close, have so many cars finished, and have such complete preparations and ar rangement. been made. Except the world's roaj race record every known’record of every sort In bringing a great race to a successful finish ha. been shattered. Hurling hi. monster Flat car along for 6 bourn, 10 minutes and 31 sec onds at a pace that on the stretches wns over a hundred and that averaged 05.1 mites an hour, the slender mus- tached winner was compelled to strug gle hard-for every second of the win ning time, and but for the fate that interfere In most races would have been defeated by his team mate, Fe lice Nazzaro, holder of the world’s road record. Nazzaro bn his last lap, nnd looking ait over the winner, throw a tire when within fifteen mile, of victory, and both Wagner and Victor Hemery, ot tbo wbeol of his big Bens car, passed aim before the damage could be i paired. Hemery croisod the tape before Wagner, who started in the race six mlnutea after the burly Frenchman and though the Benz car had finished Ita journey of ;02.l\nlles while Wag ner was still urging his machine to Its utmost, the latter, believed by many to have won the race, had left the ’ course, V „ ... ■ It required an official announcement of the time by the Judges before Wag; ner could be acclaimed winner. The first three cars finished as follows, showing the closest finish of any au tomobile road race ever run: Louis Wagner. Flat. Time, <S hours ten minutes, 31 seconds. Victory Hemery, Bens. Time, 3 hours eleven minutes, 27 seconds. Felice Ntsxaro, Fist Time, < hours 18 minutes, 47 seconds. A larger per oent, of cars finished than ever before in a road race, nine of the twenty cars completing the (la teen laps of the-26.132 miles course, while three others were running whan the race was called. Only two serious aelJents oocurred and in one of them ail exhibition of heroism kept tho thousands of specta tors that lined the course from know ing that an accident had occurred, and kept the car that met It In the race to the finish. Wagner’s victory in the first Grand Prize is no empty honor. His prizes will enable him to Uve comfortably for a year or two at least and he could enjoy a whole month of blowing money-without ending It all ’dead broke.” Wagner gets |4,000 cash from the arize moneys offered the winning lriver by the A. C. A., and S. A. C. The Michelin Tire Company will give him $1,000 while the Boach magneto makers will give half this innob. His -or waa equipped with these parts. The makers of the oil he used In bis tar will Increase his prize money, and :e will get other smaller prizes. His fee for driving tho Flat ear to victory will be large, and altogether he will -robaldy receive In excess of $10,000 for his day’s work. The four drivers who followed him across the tape will split the remainder of the $3,000 purse ifforod by the two ante dobs. CITATION. George W.

Noralstownfl, Conn., the residing place of some of New York's wealth iest business men has a mystery In tho person of a "Wild Mao of tho Woods’’.-Somotlmes hls.faco is mask e«l; sometimes It Is not. He lurks be hind trees, and at night when a pede strian comes along steps quickly up to his side, peeps Into bis fsce, laughs and runs away. A group of young men headed by John Bartln found the wild man in a dense thicket, in Schooflcld’s woods and tried lo surround him, but be took to his heels snd escaped.- They de scribed him as of middle age, tall, and athletic. The woman and children ot the village are so frightened they will not venture out after dark. DEMOCRACY’S NIXT LEADER. Here la a prediction worth noticing: John A. Johnson, the governor of Min- nesotta, will be the man to taka Mr. Bryan's place at the head ot tbs Demo cratic column. Johnson has just been elected chief executive of hie state for the third term. Hla majority I* 20,000 against an organisation of Republicans who, like Johnson, bad Swedish ancestors. While Johnson, Democratic was elscted with this safe nargin Taft was carrying Minnesota by 100,000. Jchn Johnson waa not the man for i be fight Just ended. Tho Democracy bed Its heart set on Bryan, nnd John son’s nomination would have been a ml*itke. It would have sent the Bry an men Into the eulks and split the rarty. Toe situation will be different In 1912. Every Bryan man. unless It he Bryan himself, will admit the ne cessity for a naw leadership. John son will be the man. He will be able to control a large Northwestern vote of value, and It may he that he wnl win the confidence of the Independ ent citizen down East At all events, Bryan la down and out as a leader. Hiagen didn't get enough votes to Imperii the Democrat ic organisation, which aa a necessary opposition party, will soon begin to hlnk of new plane and to cherish aew hopes.—St. Louis Times.
