Big Auto Races at Indianapolis Saturday.

The annual Decoration day races at the Indianapolis speedway will take place Saturday, and hundreds of cars of tourist visitors will pass through Rensselaer today, Thursday and Friday enroute to the Hoosier Capital for the event. Friday, of course, will be tihe “big day” for cars through here, and no doubt a great er number will pass through to the races this year than ever before on account of the larger number of people owning automobiles and the greater interest being taken in this class of sport. Sunday will be the big day for the tourists returning home, and while they usually string out for several days on the going trip, they return for most part the next day after the races, and it is quite interesting to watch them and see the different makes of cars represented.
