Will Not Be Represented in Cup Race
in Germany.
New York, May 20. There Is likely
to be no American representation In
the International cup race In Germany
on June 17, the racing committee of
the. Automobile Club of America hav
ing decided to recommend no represen
tative, after the schedule trial of the
entrants for the team on the Empire
city trotting track had ended In a
greater fiasco than the earlier trial
of the same machines.
Only one of the American cars at
tempted to carry out the program ar
ranged by the committee, but after
covering 19314 miles It was withdrawn
both from the trial and from the team,
because the owner objected to being
the sole American representative
abroad.
Representatives of a western com
pany were present, but upon advice
of counsel declined to sign an agree
ment absolving the Automobile Club
of America from claims for injuries
or damages during the trial
It had been planned by the commit
tee to give the proposed entrants a
200-mlle test on the Empire track and
a large crowd of enthusiastic people
Journeyed thither. They expressed
considerable dissatisfaction over the
outcome.
Ing so quickly and so violently would,
If applied direct, tear the machines to
pieces within a week after operations
were begun. The thing to do then Is
to harness this power and make It
useful.
They propose, therefore, to make
complete circuit of trolley wire and a
double circuit which shall contain all
the power needed to operate the cars
and at the same time keep it from
ripping up the motors In Its desire to
get to earth.
This double trolley circuit will be
complete In Itself, starting from the
power house In Manltou and returning
without going through the earth.
The pole of the car will take the
power in the ordinary way and trans
mit to the motor, but It will return
on the other wire to the power bouse
and not through the earth, thereby pre
venting the burning out of the motor.
The poles which will carry these
wires will each have at the top a light'
nlng rod designed to attract electricity
which plays around the peak so fierce
ly. The theory Is that the poles will
catch the "Juice" and transmit It
through the rails of the cog road to
the power house In Manltou. where It
will be transformed and stored for use.
They will take the electricity oft the
peak and transmit to Manltou, where
It can be used far driving trains up
and down.
The cog management have already
begun upon plans and specifications.

Novel Enterprise to Secure Power for
Pike's Peak Railway.
New York Herald.
To harness the electricity on Pike's
Peak and by means of a metallic circuit
conduct It to the base, there to be
stored for use. as motive- power for the
cog road that Is the scheme of the
Manltou and Pike's Peak railway.
The proposition, according to the
general manager, Mr. Sells, is feas
ible, and affords the only practical
means of employing electricity on the
cog road.
: The one obstacle In the way of car
rying out such a plan is the static
electricity with which the air Is
charged above the 12,000 foot point
The fact that Pike's Peak overtops all
the surrounding mountains makes It
the natural grounding spot for electri

Twilight of the Blonde.
New York Times.
The doom of the peroxide blonde has
been sealed. Throughout the past the
atrical season It has been evident that
the brunette has been regaining her
place in the choruses of Broadway;
and now one of the leading purveyors
of musical comedy has made It his
settled policy to permit no false blonde
to appear In his shows. As It Is the
avowed aim of the modern theatrical
manager to follow public taste, not ts
leal it it is obvious that off the stage
as on it ,the vogue of the chemical
blonde has come to an end.
