Perilous Night Drive in Cadillac Eight To save the life of a young man stricken with mountain pneumonia on Glacier Point in the Yosemite, J. A. McCadden, of San Diego, Ca„ drove his Cadillac Eight in, the night over the dangerous mountain trail from Curry's Camp to Glacier Point. Mrs. McCadden accompanied him. The midnight drive was made safely, and the sick man was taken down the mountain'next day to a military camp. Xo motor car had ever before travers ed the road after dark. The altitude of Glacier Point is 7,200 feet, and the famous Balancing Rock rests on one of its pinnacles. D. R. Douglas, of San Francisco, climbed the peak and immediately became danger ously ill of mountain pneumonia. A telephone message was sent to Curry's Camp, and Mr. McCadden and his wife volunteered to make the trip to the Point. In spite of the fact that darkness had fallen, the start was made at once over a road that presents many perils for the stage coaches that travel it in day time. The road overhangs a steep wall which rises from the floor of the valley, having a gradient of 25 per cent. in many places. In the 28 mlless there is a rise of 3.300 feet, and in numerous spots the trail was slippery from the melting snows in the moun tains. In spite of the darkness, the narrow ness of the road, the sharp turns and the steep grades, the Cadillac had no difficulty in reaching the Point at mid night. Early next morning the return trip was begun, and Mr. Douglas was carried in safety to the United States military camp, where he was soon on the road to recovery.

One re placed spark plug was all the attention "Mary" had asked in a mechanical way. FARMER KILLED JX TREE SHOOTIXG AT GROI'XDHOG Special to The Telegraph York.

Jackson Distributors Have Convention in Woods Tanned and weather-beaten from their week's sojourn in the northern ptninsula of Michigan, twenty-six dis tributors and officials of the Jackson ' Automobile Company rolled into Jack- i son on Sunday. July 11, after a most , successful convention in the north woods. , Since leaving the Jackson factory a I week before the dealers comprising the i party had traveled close to 1,000 miles j over every sort of road from concrete , highway to cordurby tote trails; had ' witnessed the performance of the new eight and four cylinder models, just | announced by the Jackson Company, under the most trying conditions; • fished the trout streams and lakes of i upper Michigan and. in short, had | made the most of an excellently ar- j ranged program in which business and > pleasure had equal parts. Sales Manager Howard Matthews! and his assistant. ex-Senator Frank j Xewton. share the credit for origi nating the plans for this year's con vention. Both are members of Camp ; Newton, a spacious and well equipped i hunting club, located in the heart of j Michigan's north woods. The camp is ' 68 miles from the lake city of Manis- j tique and is reached by mere logging : trails and tote roads. When Howard I Matthews at the wheel of Model 88, I the new Jackson eight-cylinder car, drove up to the front entrance of the j camp it was the first time a motor car had ever been seen in that vicinity. ' Closely following Mr. Matthews carrie j vc of the new high duty four-cylinder 1 •Tfcksons. which have been termed the i Model 3 4s. Every machine in the party had been hurriedly rushed to comnletion to take part in the trip and had not had even a rough road test. Probably no stiffer test was ever put to the springs of a motor car than the shocks administered by traveling over the corduroy roads. The logs laid across the road furnished a continual hammering at the snrings. At no time were the famous full elliptic springs on Jackson cars more self-evident than in their ability to take un the shock without damage to themselves or dis comfort to the passengers. The dealers who accompanied the party were so enthusiastic over the performance of the new eight and four cylinder cars that they talked of little else the day following their netrv into camp. The pulling ability of the small Model 3 4 with the high duty four cylinder motor In heavy sand and on long grades was remarkable. On sev- Willard Gets Big Money With 101 Ranch Show Edward Arlington, of Miller Bros. & Arlington's 101 Ranch Wild West Show, which exhibits in Harrisburg, Friday. August 27, says that Jess Willard, the cowboy champion, who is this season's big feature with the aggregation, is the highest-paid single attraction with any exhibition in the world. "Despite the report persistently i spread abroad that Willard was a fall- | ure in vaudeville," says Mr. Arlington,! he is making more money than any I other actor or singer in the world to- I day. And as his income is based on his drawing powers with the show, it' follows that he has the greatest ] draught of any man or woman before the public. Willard is with the 101 Ranch show on a percentage basis, although the management guarantees that his share will not fall below a certain figure. The guarantee, how eevr, is small compared to the amount of money he is actually receiving. Jess Willard Is earning and receiving more than Caruso and his income exceeds j the amount paid to Mary Pickford, un- ; doubte'dly the highest-priced moving picture actress in the United States, j The salary paid Bernhardt for her vau- | deville tour of the United States did not approach the sum that Willard I earns weekly. With all this the cham pion is keeping his head and his great desire is to lay up a competence for the future protection of himself and fam lly. lllard has his own private car with the show, and he carries his wife J with him. The story sent broadcast that Mrs. Willard was critleally ill and that Willard might be compelled to leave the show was untrue." The announcement is made that the j prominence and cost of Willard as an • attraction has not been taken advant- ! age of to cheapen the performance In ! any way. In fact, since the beginning, of the season the show has been great- | ly enlarged, owing to the fact that the ' business has been far better than con ditions In the Spring seemed to' promise. All the Wild West notables, with the exception of Willard, will be seen In the paVade which.leaves the grounds at 10.30 in the morning and covers the downtown route.* « GERMANS WILL XOT COMMENT j Berlin, Aug. 14. via London. 12.20 P. M.—The admiralty declines to com- ; ment on the report published abroad , that the German submarine U-30 had . been sunk oft a German port by accl- ' dent in consequence of a defect in op- ! eration, but subsequently had been • raised. Official information is refused also concerning the fate of the crew. All Over the Country The Eight-Cylinder Cadillac Is Proving the Winner By Actual Demonstration in Competition In one town five men had decided to buy a certain new convert in the V type multiple cylinder field, if the demonstration substantiated the claims. The demonstration was finally given. Result: The five men had within a few days placed their order for Eight-Cylinder Cadillacs instead of the other car. In ex plaining his decision one man said:— "'The car would do nothing that the Cadillac couldn't do, in fact the Cadillac does much that I failed to see the car do. "The Cadillac runs more slowly on high. "The Cadillac runs as fast as I care to ride, but I do not care to ride in either of them to their speed limit. "The Cadillac was quieter. "The Cadillac accelerated better. "The Cadillac ran more smoothly. "The Cadillac took our hills better. "So why should I buy anything else, particularly at a higher price." You will feel the same way, so place your order for early;delivery. Crispen Motor Car Co. 413-417 S.
