Ten thoiuand ctallars in gold and twice that much in Plata, cup, medals and trophies will be posted by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway In a strenuous effort to attract Hemery, Wagner, Nazzaro, Sim, A.

Durman, Lytle, Harroun, Altken and the score or more at .famous American pilots to the great Hoosler course at the September speed carnival. The decision of the Speedway management to cancel the arrangement for the proposed twenty-four hour race August 13-14 resulted in their, taking the money scheduled for the promotion ol the long grind and throwing It into the treasure which will be divided among the speed kings during the races of September 3 and 5. .The big Speedway plant will bask silently' in the sun .during, the month of August, and only the sounds of activity from a few workmen and, occasional practice flights of aeronaut or motor racing .craft' will break the peaceful calm. .The .balloon-, races which were scheduled will be held on the afternoon of August 13 as a curtain .raiser .to the twlce-around-ths clock circuit will also be abandoned. The .Speedway management hopes however, to offer a purse of $2,000 In cash, .which will bring the greatest driven of the world together in v magnificent battle over the 100 miles distance. T,he Bens, Plat, Napier and other famous foreign car drivers will be, la America by that time, preparing fof the. Grand Prize and Vanderbllt vent ott Long Island the first part of October. Two thousand dollars or more, counting the medals, cups and prises of the ' accessory firms, is expected to lure the greatest pilots to the ISoosler course. f OH Saturday, September 3, - the Speedway will put on a special race, knows as the Speedway Gold Purse event, which will also carry a rich cash prise. This event will be under the same conditions as the WheelerSchebler trophy race of 200 miles. It will open to cara regardless of class and not necessarily of stock construction, under 000 cubic Inches, piston displacement. One ' thousand dollars will be given for first place, $500 for second and $300 for third place. tn addition to these rich races there Wfll be the usual number of shorter
tidu ior siock ana iree-ior-au cam, and also the big stock races for the Remy Grand Brassard and trophy cup and also for the Prest-O-Lite trophy. The combination of these stock clas- , sics with the cash free-for-all events hould make the greatest ' program ever witnessed. . The Speedway desires to make this vent a fitting climax to the season of luJO, which has produced the most thrilling motor racing In the history of the sport They are anxious for th? Indianapolis course to hold every record for speed, eclipsing even .the startling marks held by the Brooklands course in England. The twenty-four hour race was called ' off by the 8peedway promoters because of the danger which attends these long grinds. There was a great popular demand for a twenty-four hour race in the west, and tb public as. well as the manufacturers were anxious to see the twice-around-the-clock event staged on the great Speedway course. The Loiters, Bulcks, Marions, Marmens and other cara noted for speed and endurance had signified their intention of entering the motor Marathon, provided the Indianapolis men held the event The fatality at Bright on . Beach recently, however, turned the tide of sentiment of President Fisher and others against the project. Although the Beach accident was due to the rough condition of the track, which could not occur at Indianapolis, nevertheless the 8peedwsy concern is determined to preserve the reputation of safety which the vitrified brick surface course has earned this year.

English Question Morals of Their King Efficiency of Ruler Is Firmly D efended by Dean of Norwich, Who Tells People They Should Love and Respect Him.
BY HERBERT TEMPLE. London July 0. Rumors about King George, to the effect that he would be found unfit to rule the British empire because of his love of strong drink, and about his secret morganatic, marriage to an English girl of humbler birth with whom he was said to have had several children, have for years been circulated in England and recently became so persistent that the Dean of Norwich, in an address .to a congregation of members of friendly societies found reason to say with much emphasis the other day "We have now upon the throne a king who ' to my personal knowledge is a man of intense self-sacrifice and high character. "Against him one has heard brought two accusations, "brought, as I think by that part of society which is no society at all, but as these things percolate down, it is Just as well that when speaking before a mass of people, one should give the lie to those two accusations. "In the first place the king is sometimes accused of insobriety. You may take it from me on undoubted authority that such a statement la a libel. As far as his close friends have noticed him he has never been intemperate throughout his life; but on the contrary is a man, who even from he point of health, has to be abstemious and who has no desire to be anything else. "I want you generous hearted men when you hear some light, stupid talk with regard to our king to say with absolute confidence that there is not a more sober, temperate, quietliving man in this country than King George. "The other accusation is still more unworthy. It is that prior to his marriage he had what is called a secret or morganatic marriage, with children by It. "That Is absolutely, root and branch an untruth. King George is a man, who, with a wife' of like disposition to himself, has been wont during his leisure to sit in his garden with his young children found him, Just the same as any of us might do in our own patch of garden. "He has now undertaken the greatest responsibilities which any man can undertake, and I ask for him justice, fair dealing, confidence, loyalty and love in his task." Aeronauts for the Army. Although no official announcement on the subject has yet been made by the war office authorities, it is pretty generally known that an army aeronautical corps is In process of formation. The headquarters of the new corps will be at Farnborough, where in the grounds of the war balloon factory a site has already been selected. As the corps Is an entirely new departure its constitution in the first stage will be largely experimental, but it is regarded as certain that the two balloon companies of Royal Engineers and the London Territorial Balloon Company will be incorporated. The officers for the regular units will naturally be found in the army, but the territorial section will invite skilled aeronauts and pilots of both heavier and lighter than air machines, as well as experts in motor mechanics. With the formation of the aeronautical corps the line of cleavage between

the army baloon construction works and the army aeronautical training school will become more marked than at present. To Exploit Africa.' A group of British capitalists has obtained an Important concession in the territory of Mossamedes, Portuguese Africa. The territory contains
rich minerals, especially gold, rubber and ivory. The exploitation of agri culture on a large scale is also intend ed. The syndicate has a capital of two million and a half sterling. Four hundred free Boer families, who abandoned the Transvaal at the time of the war and settled in Portu guese territory, still remain there. They will work for the concern and take British nationality. The free Boer settlement has been rapidly developing its numbers, and has lately taken an agrgessive attitude. Its members are well armed and the Portuguese government is congratulating itself that henceforth they will come under the sway of the British government New Wireless Apparatus. A new wireless aparatus for the transmission of military orders during a battle from one body of troops to another has been invented by Major Bertdington of the English army, who has devised and made the necesary easily portable plant which can be carried on horseback and accompany any cavalry or infantry force. It does not require half a day to erect, nor even half an hour, and messages can be sent for scores of miles less or more by the apparatus. The whole arrangement seems .to be Ideal, and the very thing needed particularly for cavalry operating in the field or for detached outposts. It links up and makes vertebrate and sensient a leader's whole strength in the field for offense or defense. The new wireless apparatus for the use of troops in the field is carried on horseback and can be set up in the course of a few minutes. The materiala employed consist of an ordinary two horse power motor cycle engine which drives a dynamo, to produce the electric discharges. These impulses are sent through 100 yards of double copper wires suspended between 24 foot poles placed at the distance named. Earth connection is simply achieved by laying down a copper wire gauze mat on the ground. The mat is the heaviest load to be carried and that is not more than 200 pounds, while the motor engine and dynamo weigh but 1GS .pounds. As for the poles, they are carried on the horse or pony's pack saddle in 6 feet jointed lengths. Experiment has proved that a station can be made ready and messages received In fifteen minutes. In one Instance messages were sent and received over a distance of lt miles near Keswick, and a huge fell 1,700 feet in height Interposed between the two stations. Yet the signals were clear and distinct, and there seems to be no difficulty in passing them over a distance of forty miles or more. Surely Mr. , John Burns is the most democratic cabinet minister in the world and sets an example to his colleagues in states with a republican form of government. Although his official salary, very
