Motor Speedway.

Indianapolis, Ind., April 21, 1911.— A total of $6,500 has been added to the $25,000 gold purse which is hung up by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for winners in the 500-mile International Sweepstakes Race next Memorial day. This side money has been offered by various accessory manufacturers and it is expected that between $10,000 co $15,000 more of the same kind of money will be offered before the close of the entries, May 1.

One of the largest offers made thus far is that of Findeisem & Kropf Manufacturing Company, of Chicago, which has given $2,000 to winners of the first four places in the long grind. The purse is divided aslfollows: Winner, $1,000, second $500, third $300, and fourth $200, and the condition imposed is that the* winning car be equipped with Rayfield Carburator. This offer is known as the "Rayfield Carburator Purse." "We believe that the winners of an event 500 miles in length are worthy of every cent offered," said W. Findeisen, in making the offer. "In considering the hazard which automobile drivers take, especially in long races, their pay has been ridiculously small and the only method by which they can hope to receive a larger income is through the generosity of manufacturers of accessories, as well as automobile makers. While we do not believe that driyers should be persuaded to use any certain accessory through the offer of money that goes with it, we do feel that any maker of an accessory which has proven merits, is justified in paying a driver extra money providing he demonstrates the value of that particular accessory. It is with this idea in mind that we are making our offer."

In addition to the "Rayfield Carburator Purse," the following offers have been made: Wheeler & Schebler, Indianapolis, $2,500 to the winner, providing the car is equipped with Schebler Carburator The Remy Electric Company, $1000 to the winner, providing the car is equipped with Remy Ignition Columbia Lubricants Company offers a "Monogram Oil Purse" of $1,000, divided as follows $500 to the winner, $250 second $150 third and 100 fourth.

County Auditor Oharles H. Troy is not very well versed in "bird-ology" but he knows a crow's head when he sees it. He says he His liable to get fooled on the eggs, however. Since the recent legislature enacted a law giving the commissioners the privilege of paying a bounty on crows and their eggs the Auditor has been called upon several times to file claims for bounty and after satisfying himself that they were really crow's heads and eggs that were brought to his office, fed the furnace with them. Whether or not the people who have filed their claims will receive pay, is a question, as the matter is optional with the county council and commissioners.

There is no fund on hands now that can be used for this purpose and the council will have to make an appropriation before the commissioners can allow the claims. Whether or not the commissioners will consider the extermination of crows of enough importance to pay for killing them and hunting their eggs is not known at this time.

The law provides that the county may pay a bounty of Jben cents each for crow's heads and five cents each for crow's eggs when ten or more are brought to the auditor's office at a time. The matter of paying for either is optional with the commissioners, however.

OF

Now that the flower beds and gardens have commenced to materialize, the annual outcry against the neighbors chickens will be heard in the land. Chickens seem to take great delight in getting over or through the fence and scratching up anew flower or onion bed. This seldom fails to produce some anger on the part of the gardner and a telephone to police headquarters or the newspaper office is generally the first thing to do after hurling every loose object in sight at the offending fowls. Owners of trespassing chickens are responsible for them and the damage done by them as there is an ordinance against letting them run at large.

Found—A pocketbook and money near the M. E. church, New Palestine. Owner can have same by describing property and paying for this advertisement, Call at J. O. Brandenburg's Stop 10, Indianapolis & Connersville Traction Line. 26t3-wtl

IN PAYING TAKES

The railroad corporations are slow this year in paying their spring installment of taxes. Usually the railroad companies are prompt in paying their taxes early but their big checks had not arrived Saturday, although the figures have been approved. The day these checks come in, are usually big days, as they pay taxes on many thousands of dollars worth of property. The county treasurer has had several big days this spring, several days' receipts amounting to over $5,000 each. The continued wtt weather has helped the treasurer considerably, as the farmers, having nothing more profitable to do, came in and renewed their allegiance to the county, some paying over the coin With a smile and some otherwise. There are still large sums out in the cold, dark world, however, which the treasurer is anxious to add to his pile before Monday, May first.

The above date is the last day before placing the unpaid taxes on the delinquent list. It is also the last day for cashing road receipts, under the new law. Many are not aware of thip change and are liable to be the loser unless they are quick about visiting the treasurer's office with the road rec jipts.
