Tells Interesting Story
In the days of '49 the settlers of
California, with those of the western
plains, expressed warmest praise and
spoke with great pride of the speed of
the Express." To-day we speak
with equal pride and admiration of
our wonderful "Transcontinental Um
iteds," which (five to the west the prod
ucts of the east, and vice versa, and af
ford the traveler all the luxuries and
comforts of the most modern home.
We also dwell with great emphasis
on our present "Motor" progress, and
point to the endless passing procession
of automobiles, motor trucks, motorcy
cles. motorbicycles and other vehicles
propelled by motor power, which are
to-day a necessity in order that we
may maintain our position, as the
"Greatest Nation" of the earth.
Everywhere, in all places of business,
is heard "When you can furnish this?"

THURSDAY EVENING,
"When and how will you deliver my
I order?" Thus the greatest problem we
face to-day Is that of delivery, and one
big factor in the solving of tills great
k problem, in a practical, efficient way,
3 is the motorcycle. With the side de
livery van attached, the motorcycle Is
for merchants in all lines; for
the use of quick repairmen and trou
ble-sliooters of the telephone and tele
graph companies, and the electric pow
, er and public service companies, by
tlie Police Departments on emergency
calls, in enforcing motor laws, and
in patroling suburban home districts.
The fact alone that the motorcycle-pa
' trolman can Kive the suburban home
ti better protection is a deciding factor
j why municipalities are adopting the
motorcycle as part of their equipment.
The tire departments use the motor
* cycle that they may "get the strangle
f hold" on a tire. In other words, a fire
- man with a motorcycle, equipped with
- several small extinguishers, capable of
- putting out a gasoline lire, can be
rt dispatched; then, if necessary, turn in
a second alarm for additional equip
s ment. With tills facility very frequent
ri ly an entire block of valuable city i
n property will be saved.
When you detach the delivery van
sjfind attach the side-car to the motor
e cycle, you have an {ileal pleasure ve- !
u hide. Insuring comfort and ennoble of
e covering a journey or any distance at
the lowest minimum cost of motor op
eration.
"j These are only a few of the many'
lields in which the motorcycle can bo
I successfully used. In this there should
bo a distinct appeal to the interested
j citizen of Atlantic City, who possesses
, j even the smallest amount of civic pride.
This was very forcibly outlined by
1 F. W. Stierhoff, eastern traveling rep
resentative of the Harley-Davidson
Motor Co., Milwaukee, Wis., during a
i few hours' visit with Mr. Kay Hcagy,
of Hcagy Bros., of this city, to a re
| porter f rom the Telegraph.
I Mr. Stierhoff has used a 191" model
Harley-Mavidson with sidecar attached
| in covering his territory, making rec
j ord-breaklng time, over approximately
! 3,000 miles of every kind of roads
! tnroughout New Jersey, lower New
j York, eastern Pennsylvania and Mary
land. A record, covering the entire
distance traveled, shows that the new
mouel consumed on an average only
l one gallon of lubricating oil to each
| 1,000 miles and developed 4o miles to
' a gallon of gasoline.
"If there is anything morn convinc
ing, as to the practicability of the
motorcycle than a record like this, 1
would like to see it," said Mr. Heagy.
i Neither is the pleasure end to be over
looked. You may know of a fine place
to hunt, fish or picnic, some thirty
I miles away. There is perhaps a spe
] clal excursion and rates, but you gen
erally have to arise early, make the
trip under conditions anything but
j comfortable, and leave for home just
[ when the sport Is at Its best. All this
• takes some joy out of the day. With

Prince of Wales Cranks
Woman's Stalled Car
■ | London, March B.—The Prince of
1 Wales, who was in London on leave re- i
J cently, was walking with a brother of- !
. fleer when he found the woman driver |
of an official car in difficulty owing to ai
■ | breakdown.
The two young officers came forward I
' to help her, and the Prince of Wales
spent nearly twenty minutes in ener- 1
getic efforts, which happily ended in i
' the engine agntn running smoothly.
1 As she was thanking her unknown
' assistants, the Prince looked at his i
wrist-watch and remarked: "Heavens!!
• ! I shall be late." So the young woman
s said: "Jump in, and I'll take you any-I
I where you like. It's the least I can j
: do after the trouble you've piSled nie
• out of. Where do you want to go?" |
< l "Thanks awfully," was the reply. I
' j "Home, please."
"Where's home?" she inquired, smil-1
lng at the way he had naively im
• aglned his address would be known. I
I It was only when he replied: "Buck- j
: Ingham Palace," that she realized that I
i her principal mechanician had been the j
hHeir Apparent. '
The Disqualification
of the Salesman
Visiting on the many the sins of
the few is too much the way of the
I world. But the world has a right to |
j expect better of an organization such j
j as the Amateur Athletic Union, which |
exists for the promotion of sportsman- !
; ship, which is supposed to be another I
! word for fairness; and the same Is true
lof tlie iN'ational Lawn Tennis Associa
i tion which is moving toward the same
1 narrow and twisting path.
In view of the fact, its new A. A.
IU. rule, which, without distinction,
herds together all salesmen of sport
-1 ing goods and forever places them j
| outside the pale of amateur sport, is ]
i too much for our understanding.
There was a time, in England, at j
1 any rate, when the only sportsmen ]
, were those "gentlemen" whose hands I
j were unsoiled by labor, but as the j
! world has advanced, it did not seem j
! probable that any considerable num- '
: ber of men, least of al! in democratic j
I America, could now be induced to I
] discover In any means of livelihood
I such offensiveness as would lead to
I the placing of the brand "Unfit" on
j one class of the world's workers, so
! far as concerns their relation to sports
i and few of whom have an;- fame to
I capitalize.
It is perfectly clear why men,
' whether they be employers, or book-
MARCH 8, 1917
keepers, or salesmen, who have ae-1
quired fanie, should he forbidden to j
turn it to financial advantage, and as j
the A. A. U. rule amply covers such :
individuals and such practices, why I
the organization should go further and j
because of the sins of these few, per- !
manently disqualify tens of thousands, J
' if not hundreds of thousands, of fame- I
: less and unoffending young men, must
' remain a mystery, psychological and j
) otherwise.
German Plot to Foment

Washington, March 8. German |
i plots to foment revolutions in India I
I which date back many years before

I under control as far as operations in
i this country are concerned. San Fran

China, was used during the first part
of the war as one of the three main
j bases of operation, but the activities of
the person who directed operations
there whose name the department will
not disclose, is stated to have been
curbed. A smaller .iunta at Manila
against which the British government
had protested, is also said to have
