E. Roe with a string of automobiles will gather members of the Quarter Century club and their wives, and convey them to the park at eight o'clock. At 8:45 the program opens with the initiation of seven new members who have reached the twenty-five year mark in Dodge service.

"Safety First" Extra, Among the athletic contests of the day that aro exciting more than ordinary interest are the box making, "Safety First" and clothes hanging contests. The first event is limited to directors of the Dodge Manufacturing company. Each wil be provided with lumber, cut the proper dimensions, proper number of nails and a hammer. They must construct a box using up all this material and the one who first finishes the box which will pass the Inspection of Director L. G. Brown, who is also superintendent of the box factory, will be given a prize of a traveling bag. Entries in this contest are M. W .Mix, S. W. Schuyler, Charles Endlich. E. H. Ahara and D. J. Campbell. The "Safety First" contest will be run In two sections. One is open to foremen at the Diamond D plant competing In the safety first campaign there, and the other two foTerrien of the Indestructo plant. The foremen will be paired off and one of each pair will ride the other on. a wheelbarrow made In the Dodge wood pulley shops, and when they get to the other end of the course they will change places and one who rode will rWe the other man back to the starting point. "Safety" is the first consideration in this stunt and the prize will go only to the team making the greatest speed with the greatest safety. "Safety First" is the slogan in the Dodge factories and co-operation of the men in the prevention of accidents has been the means of reducing the casualty list very materially.

Death of Sen. Johnston of Alabama May Affect Final Passage of Tariff Predict a Long Session. WASHINGTON. Aug. 8. All predictions of an early passage of .the democratic tariff bill by the senite are going a glimmering. Majority leaders realize that notwithstanding the fact that they have set a new record in pushing consideration of this measure onb a. beginning has been ma3e and the earliest any one now will promise completion of the ta?k is Sept. 15. Ten days ago when a member of the finance committee said he thought tho senate would pass the bill by Aug. 20 there were some who thought it might Ik? possible but that date is less than two weeks away and but four schedules have been considered, 36 paragraphs in theso having been passed over for future consideration. Now even those who suggest Sept. 15 as the date for final action are guided principally by hopes that scorns tho views of others who think It will bo a later date. Tho chemicals, earthenwares, metal and lumlK?r schedules have been approved, save for rates on certain articles in each which will be taken up when the bill gets to the senate proper from committee. There remains to bo considered the schedues, among them the three upon which there will be the most vigorous attacks by the minority, namely tho wool, sugar and agricultural schedules. The minority is making a complete tariff record and shows no sign of letting up on amendments. , The death of Sen. Johnston of Alabama, which has reduced the democratic majority on the bill to one vote, tho Louisiana senators having: determined to vote against it because of the free sugar provision. This slender majority has given rise to hopes in republican breasts that they may be able to put through an amendment to the wool or sugar schedules. Tho switch of one democratic vote more would turn the trick, unless a successor to Sen. Johnston is named at once. Democratic senate leaders insist, however, that the 4S votes they have will stand firmly against any republican amendments. The sugar schedule is the next to be taken up and discussion of it probably will begin Friday. Following the schedules and free list there will yet remain to bo considered the income tax, the cotton futures tax and tho administrative provisions of the measure, all of which are certain to arouse considerable debate. These prospects taken together with the views of republicans against undue haste because of the probability of being held for currency legislation do not offer any grour.d upon which to predicate a prediction of completing work on the tariff bill. No progress was made today owing to adjournment in respect to tho memory of Sen. Johnston. PASSENGER CRASHES INTO STRING OF CARS Nono An?

"Gunboat" Smith of California defeated Jim Flynn, the Pueblo fireman In the fifth round of their scheduled ten round bout at Madison Square garden Fridav night. Smith knocked Flynn down four times in the fifth round and tho referee stopped the fight to save Flynn from being knocked out. Smith weighed 183 1-2 pounds and Flynn w-as fivo pounds heavier. At the start Flynn rushed Smith to the ropes in the latter's corner, working to the body with short arm blows; Smith broke away and began jabbing. finally catching Flynn with a right up per cut to the face. Honors were even at the end of the round. In the second round Flynn tried to get close, but Smith kept him at long range, scoring point after point. At the end of tho round Flynn managed to land a right hook to tho head. This round and tho three fol lowing in Smith's favor. Both men held to their original tac ticts. In the fifth. Flynn swung a terrific right to the ribs, sending Smith to the ropes. The Californian came back with a hail of left and right jabs and hooks" Then with a right upper cut flust on the jaw ho knocked Flynn down for a count of eight seconds. Another right to the jaw put tho Pueblo fireman to the floor for three seconds. Flynn rose with his face covered with blood and Smith knocked him down with a right to the jaw, the fireman clinching. Flynn gained his feet once more on a count of three, but he was wobbly and Smith put him to the floor In Flynn's corner. This was the last blow of the fight as Referee Joh stepped between the men to save Flynn from being knocked out. SAINTS FORCED TO GO TWELVE INNINGS TO WIN TOLEDO, O., Aug. 8. St. Paul was forced to go 12 inning Friday afternoon to beat Toledo six to four and retain its hold on fourth place. In the eighth Toledo apparently cinched the game by driving in two runs, but St. Paul came back in the ninth with a pair when Gardner fumbled Riggert's grounder, Autry tripled and James drew a double to right. SAYS SULZER WAS WORTH S50,000 WHEN NOMINATED (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.)

"The result of this communication was that finally something over S2,0 0 0 was paid hy Josephthal and tho account taken up. Is that right?" Mr. Fuller was asked. "That was somo time after.

Studebakers vs. Plow Co. at Sinirer Park. Ball Bands vs. Watch Co., at Mishawaka. What a beautiful race tho chase for the News-Times pennant race has developed into during the pat four weeks can only be explained by glancing at the standing of tho clubs which conveys the information that thr clubs, the Ball Bands. Singers and Studebakers, aro tied for Iirt place ia tho Factory league. The principal reason for the existing order of things is the South Bend Chilled Plow Co. The Plow Boys did not win a single gamo of tho irsi eight played and were voted hopele tail-enders. But tho worm has turned and tho Plow Boys ire now tho worst feared club in the league, and they are no longer occupying tho cellar position in the perWntago column. It was tho Plow Roys who took tho Singers into camp bujt Saturday and made tho present tie possiblo and theso same Plow Boys can do a lot more damage before tho curtain ia rung. There aro only three moro weeks of tho schedule on the calendar and thoso of tho leading clubs who are not .scheduled against tho Plow Boys have much to bo thankful for. Studebakers meet the Plow Boys at Singer's park Saturday afternoon and if the latter are as mischievous as they were against tho Singers a w-ek ago it Is apt to put the Wagonmakers out of the pennant race. Two Weeks ago when theso two learns met, Hinz, of the Plow Co. was sick and the team was without a catcher. The battle) was very one hided, but with a solid war footing Casaday's boys hope to reverse matters at Singer's park Saturday afternoon. This week's schedule presents another lot of opportunities for the second division clubs to tantalize th leaders, as all three games are paired off in this manner for the day. It is believed that tho Ball Bands are immune from d . feat, at b ast today, as they play tv Watchmakers at Mishawaka. The latter have been playing sjdendid ba'l. but have been nosed out by one ard two runs morn often than any other club in tho league. Besides the Ball Bands have not lost .a single game this sasn since Davis was secured to do tho pitching for them. With Dodges playing at their own picnic and having their game transfered to Springbrook park may sp 11 disaster for the Sewing Machine men. The picnic bug is treacherous as tho Plow Boys learned to their rorrow at the Studebaker picnic two weeks ;ico at Berrien Springs. Iodges have not won a game for moons and are moro than duo to coin one, but whether they will bo able to turn the trick remains to be seen. Only two more wer-ks of play and the first season of the Factory league will havo been completed. There are a number of very imrortant game.s on the docket yet, as tne leaders, with the exception of the Bali Bands-Stu-dobaker combination, meet each eth
