This is undoubtedly the , biggest event of its kind ever staged t at Fort Wayne, and Fort Wayne and surrounding territory are alive with interest. The promoters have been } swamped with requests to hold an , amateur race in connection with Sunday’s program and therefore, it has ( been decided to make the fifth event a 10 mile Hoosier Amateur Derby which will be open to any non-profes-sional in Indiana. Any driver desiring to enter the amateur event should > communicate at once with W. D. Row- ■ lands at the Anthony Hotel and he • will be notified of his acceptance by t the National Auto Racing Assn. The prizes will be SIOO.OO first place $50.00 second place; and $25.00 third . place. This will be in addition to the $3,000.00 purse hung up for the pro- ; fessional drivers. Tuesday night the total entries were as follows: Sunbeam, Doyle; Maxwell Special, Dawson; Hudson Super-Six. no driver named; Peugot, Lawwell; Duesenberg, Armentrout; and Lightning Comet, Rudy. Armentrout driving Duesenberg. shattered all previous worlds records on the dirt track at Lima, Ohio, Labor Day. o THE MYSTERIOUS MRS. M. Mrs. Musselwhite was the best fortune teller in New York. She wps what slang experts call "sure fire." To Raymond Van Seer she proved it , when she told him he would meet with ’ an accident and ,on the day predicted, he fell and broke his arm. Then she died on the day she said she would, ■ but not until she had predicted the . day and date on which Van Seer : should pass away. Filled with abun- : dant proof that Mrs. Musselwhite's prophecies were unfailing, Van Seer i found hinnelf suddenly involved in a love affair with the prettiest girl ho ever set eyes upon—and the rest • of the story must, for the present, remain untold. “The Mysterious Mrs. M.” is the title of the Blubird photoplay to be exhibited at the Crystal theatre tonight. o — NOTICE OF APPLICATION FOR CHANGE OF CORPORATE NAME.
