This car speaks for itself. No car at any
price is better finished, has mere grace of line,
or better quality. Its power is ample to drive
it at a speed of 40 to 50 miles an hour, or to
climb any hill. Its riding qualities and easy
handling cannot be adequately described. We
are demonstrating them daily.
Its especial merit is its simplicity and its
efficiency, due to the correct inter-relation of
its parts. The power plant and simple rear con
struction conserve the power developed to the
utmost. Its economy, in upkeep and running
expense, will commend it.
IT WEIGHS 1,650 POUNDS
IT COSTS $1,500.00.

Ryan, the newspaper man who has made

weeks and that 932 cars have been con
tracted for in this section of the west
within, the last three weeks. .
Advertising Manager Evans of the Brush
runabout spent Thursday In Omaha. He Is
pleased with the behavior of the little car
In the Glidden tour and makes some strong
claims for It. He said: "Probably one of
the finest boosts ever given the famous
little runabout came from a rival, E. A.
Nelson, the designer of the speedy little
1 Hupmobile. Mr. Nelson rode as observer
on Brush No. 103, driven by Fred A. Trln
kle of Denver, the day the four ran from
Madison to La Crosae, over roads pro
nounced by all to be the worst ever en
countered on a reliability run of any sort.
Mr. Nelson Just couldn't refrain from ad
miring the little gray car with the black
stripes. He aald: 'The little Bruah cer
tainly surprised me, and for consistent
road work, steady plugging and smoothness
I certainly muat doff my hat to it. Thos
dangerous- desoents that the big ears took
with brakes set and sometimes riding on
two wheels the little Brush took on high
speed with throttle thrown wide open and
Beamed to aprlng from level to level like
a mountain goat. At first I thought vha
car would be smashed to bits and but for
my confidence In Trinkle I would have
Jumped long before the end of the day's
run. Nothing happened, however, and
when I examined It more closely at the
close of the day not the smallest part
showed a sign of the awful strain to which
it had been put' "
R. H. Johnson, advertising manager of
the White steamer, accompanied the Olld
den tourists snd apent a few hours in
Omaha at Drummonda. Johnson ia a prac
tical automobile man and thinka the White
steamer Is far and away ahead of any car
made. He is a Cornell man, writes clean
automobile copy and trota around half of
the time bareheaded.
Theodore Welgcle, tire department man
ager for the Diamond Rubber company,
says "Henshue with an Apperson car on
Diamond tires and racing rims established
a new record, winning the heavy stock car
race of J01.0 miles In 1SS minutes three
seconds. The same day and place Bert
Dlngley, with the Chalmers-Detroit, won
tbe light car race, for the same distance, In
21S minutes SS seconds, also using Diamond
tires and rims. Two days later, at Detroit,
3,000 miles away, Diamond tires played a
prominent part In the start of the Glidden
tour, a very different sort of event, by
equipping fourteen of the forty-one cars
with five other makes of tires, dividing
the remainder.
George A. Davidson and L. E. Rltten
house are the Diamond Rubber company
representatives accompanying the Glidden
tour. Eight of the thirteen cars are using
the Diamond make. Six makes of tires are
represented on the total of forty-one cars
In the run, the number using Diamond
being fourteen.
Drummond received the following mes
sage from Manager Johnson, who Is with
the Glidden tour: "White Steamer using
kerosene as fuel completed the trip as far
aa Denver with perfect score."
The Herreschoffs are beginning to arrive
at Drummond's garage and is one of the
most admired cars that ever came to
Omaha.
C. N. Delta, who reoently returned from
Europe, has presented Colonel Deright
with a miniature automobile. The machine
contains two dozen imported cigarettes and
a receptacle for matches, and when opened
plays Swiss airs.
SPIT BALL DELAYS THE GAME
So Maya Hank O'Day, Who Alao Says
Moat PHchere Stall.
NEW TORK. July 24. Hank O'Day, the
National league umpire, agrees with Silk
O'Loughlln of the American league staff
that the use of the spit ball means a
delay of from ten to fifteen minutes In
every game In which It is uaed.
He also said that the great majority of
pitchers do not wet the sphere at all, but
go through the motions of doing so In order
that they might take a rest. It la an old
trick for a pitcher, caught In some tight
hole, to stand In his position for some
time, holding the ball near his mouth and
delivering It when good and ready to do so.
"O'Loughlln is right when he says the
spit ball delays the game," he said. "1
know such to be tbe case. Bugs Raymond
of the Giants has often been pointed out
as one of the most prominent users of the
spit ball, yet Raymond will go through
entire games without moistening the ball.
He often pretends to, but In nine cases out
of ten he does it only In an effort to fool
the batter, and Raymond Is not the only
pitcher who resorts to this practice."
O'Day does not take sides In the con
troversy over the spit ball. He is not In
favor of abolishing It entirely, but he
would not give up his position If the de
livery were legislated against.
