Ishpeming, Mich., Sept. 11. —(United Press. —Henry Ford, the automobile manufacturer, has purchased the town of Pequamlng. Baraga county, in the Upper Michigan peninsula, it became known today. The purchase includes a short railthe interests of Charles Hebard and Sons in Baraga, Ontonagon, Houghton road, sawmill, timber lands, anil also and Marquette counties, bring the Ford lumber output to about 50,000,000 feet annually. Ford will take possession iinniedimade public. About 40,000 acres of timber land, bearing between 200,000 and 300,000 feet of standing hardwood and hemlock as well as five or six million feet of lumber, go to Ford in the deal. Ford already owns a mill at L’Anse, about twenty miles from Pequamlng and it is the combined output of these i two that will bring his lumber output to 50.000,000 feet annually. — o Fog Hindered Scientists In Photographing Eclipse Los Angeles, Sept. 11. —As the vast solar laboratory into which southern California has been converted for the purpose of viewing the eclipse, broke up today, scientists tallied the results of their efforts and the expenditure of thousands of dollars. While admitting that the fog bound eclipse prevented them from obtaining any worth-while photographic results, with the possible exception of pictures aviators flying four miles high may have obtained, the following important observations were made: 1. A display of rose-colored hydrogen gas was recorded by Professor S. A. Mitchell of the University of Virginia. stationed at Lakeside. (Scientists take great interest in the discovery of new gas formations, as the valuable helium was first observed on the sum during an eclipse and later observed in smaller quantities on earth.) 2. An interesting demonstration of the affect of the sun on the earth’s magnetic conditions which may have an important beraing on future charts and compass work, was made by Captain Ault of the Carnegie Institute of Washington. During totality he noticed a distinct dip in the magnetic needle and found that the electrical conductivity of the air decreased ten ' per cent. I 3. Scientific calculations of the time of the eclipse made years ago were one second off, the moon obscuring the sun one second before the appointed time.

Sepi tember 20th. Legal notice to bidders that proposals will be received by [ the Berne Water company directors , w ill be published Wednesday. , Some time ago the citizens of Berne voted to install and build a water works plant and since that time plans have been going ahead towards its construction.

Competition Promises In Winchester Races Into the coming event to he held on the Funk Speedway at Winchester, Sunday, September 16. enters the sort of thing that started automobile racing upon its way to popularity in the eyes of the public. Dirt track racing has not yet reached that highly developed state of commercialism to which speedway racing has come, but rarely will one find a situation which smacks so of the old days when the business life of some of the now famous and soundly organized auto mobile companies depended on the winning of this or that motor racing event. Rivalry between two companies both engaged in the manufacture of overhead valve racing heads for a certain car now very popular and consistent winners on lioth dirt tracks and speedways has brought about just the sort of a situation that has made automobile racing as a sport second to none. This condition will doubtless do much toward making the coming 100-mile event one to be long remembered by the race fans who witness it. For the past two years the Chevrolet Brothers’ Co. of Indianapolis, and the Laurel Motors Co., of Anderson, have been competitors in the manufacture of racing overhead valve attachments. Each company has this season won a number of important races. Since the first of the season each company has improved on their racing cars until now in the coming I final and biggest event of the season, 'they will meet with the intention of showing the public which has the superior product of their line. The Chevrolet company has entered three cars which will be in the hands of A. Davidson, Chance Kinsley and Earl Warrick. The I-aurel company has entered three cars, two of which will be piloted by the famous Ormsby brothers, the third has not yet been named. If you were to ask anyone of the dirt track drivers or , fans to name the five best drivers | bn the dirt today, in your answer you J would hear just these names. To each ■ of these drivers the winning of the • 100-mile event means not only the honor of winning the greatest dirt ’ track event of the season, nor the i prize money, but it means that he ! will be assurred of a good contract for the coming season which, after all, is the only part of racing upon which one can live. Another contender who may be looked on as the real black horse in the race >is the Overland Special, driven by Benton Shoaf, and entered by D. R. Noonan, of Paris, 111. Noonan is also a manufacture of overhead valve attachments for racing Overlands and Is out to showjust what they can do. Shoaf is one of the boys who really drives for the love of the sport. At home in Paris. 111., he is a part of the Shoaf Publishing Co., who own and publish the Paris Gazette. All these foregoing facts mean little each in tnemselves, but combined they are sure to mean but one thing that when the checkered flag falls on the winner, September 16, every fan will be forced to ; admit that they have seen a real , automobile race. - o William McGee Killed St. Louis, Sept. 11.—(United 1 Press.) —William McGee, horsesheer t and democratic member of the lower i house of the Missouri legislature, died today from wounds received when gangsters fired on him and Elmer Malone at a street corner Sunday night. , Malone was instantly killed. i o ■ Mrs. E. B. Macy and son Byford, have returned from Elkhart, where they spent the week-end.

Indianapolis, Sept. 11.—Stricter ob- . servance of th«e state fire regala- | tions and the public’s growing will-1 ingnesa to adopt safety precautions are cited by Newman T. Miller, state fire marshall, as the principal reasons for the greatly improved showing last July 4th in the reduction of death, fires, and property loss caused by tire works. Official reports received by the fire ■ marshal's office show there were on*y ) five fires due to fireworks on ?,i'.y 4 last, as compared with eighteen in . 1922. The aggregate property loss ■ in 1922 was $267935, against a total ; loss of $2,561 lost in this July 4 by J fires resulting from fireworks. In I 1922 there were seven deaths in Indiana from fireworks explosions and similar mishaps, and fourteen ser- , ious injuries are shown on the fire marshal's records. This year there were four deaths in Indiana charged against explosives, two of I these resulting from the swallowing of fireworks containing posion, by In- 1 I dianapolis children. The figures on 1 accidents this year are not complete 1 but only four serious mishaps resulting from fireworks have been reported to'state authorities . The official reports for July are made to the state board of health during the month of August. ’ Warnings calling attention to the dangers of mercuric sulpho-cyanate 1 'and yellow phosphorus, substances used in many kinds of fireworks,' ■ were issued from the fire marshal's i off i e e before the Fourth to put parjents on guard.
