Experiments along this line are constantly being made and remarkable successes are being attained. The latest claim of unusual economy is made by Dodge Brothers for their new four cylinder cars which are being advertised as capable of going 25 mfles on a gallon of gasoline at a speed of 25 miles per hour. ('. R. Saylors, of Saylors Motor CoDodge Brothers Dealer, states that since the new cars were introduced practically everyone who has examJ ined them has commented upon this feature. “One contribution to economy Is made by the gear ratio which is lower than on former Dodge Brothers cars. This means that the engine •makes fewer revolutions in driving the car a mile than were formerly required, thereby bringing about another saving. “Improvements in carburetion, lietter manifolding, a redesigned cylinder head and faster entry of the gas into the combustion chamber, announced earlier in the summer as important characteristics of this Dodge Brothers motor, result in the {achievement of operating economy. "The design of the carburetor was | improved when the new motor was •introduced and its location changed iso that the gas has a shorter distlance to travel from the carburetor to j the combustion chamber. The gas j goes from the carburetor through the intake manifold which is heated by the exhaust and a}’ liquid fuel which passes over this ’hot-spot’ is completely vaporized. | “The cylinder head tor the new ■motor was redesigned and is now of such shape that more power is obtained from each explosion than was possible with the old head. “These factors, in addition to contributing to greater gasoline economy. are respons ble for a very large ■lncrease in power and acceleration.” It NtITM K OF FIN VI.

Two hours later Leneau's head emerged from the shaft. “God, I’m glad that’s over," he said in a weak voice. “I hope it ’never nappens again." His wife ran to him She was too bappy to say much.

Testimony last night also gave a clue to where the weapon was obtained which causejl Mrs. Hill’s death. A .25 calibre automatic pistol belonging to a Streator garage : Hill frequented disappeared last winter, it was alleged, aud was i '.ater found in Hill’s machine. Three 1 or four weeks ago, the gun was lost again.

Hill's supposed fiancee denied in an interview that she had planned to marry him in the near future, stating she refused Its proposal because of his ill health. ■ ■ ■ o- — BOWMAN IS READY FOR LEG AL TILT (CONTI A FED FROM PARE ONE) the ftk’l month of August, in that position Miller asserted he could legally hold both jobs, so long as he iieepled pay tor only oue. The statement was made that he has not yet accepted Indianapolis salary and therefore is entitled to state compensation. It is be' eved that Bowman will follow the opinion of the s-luw legal department and refuse salary for the | tina'. two weeks of August. In that case two legal courses develop. On els a quo warranto suit by which the person selected by the governor to fill the state post may . sue to establish his claim to the state i office. The other is a suit by Miller I 'o cfore payment of his salary. Governor Jackson has announced his intention of appointing a successor to Miller regardless of whether ‘he latter sends in a formal resigna•ion. The attorney general’s office handed down an option declaring it 's the belief of that office that Miller “automatica'-ly vacated the state position when he signed for the city post.” According to that opinion, the office is now vacant and the governor I may appwlnt a successor to Miller lat any time. Governor Jackson has I -aid he will make the appointment I early next week. 1 0 —,—, Girl Struck On Head By Descending Railroad Gates Anderson, Ind Aug., 27.—(UP)—* j Struck on the head by a descending , Big Four Railroad gate, Evelyn DaI vis. 11. is in a serious condition a' ■ a local hospital.
