"The remarkable vogue of the closed

due alone to a desire to drive winters,”
concludes General Sales Manager John

“The growing preference on the part
of women for the so-called sedan is the
real reason,” continued Mr. Mansfield.

Touring Party Makes Trip By Easy
Stages.
A touring party, consisting of two
couples, called upon the Ford branch of
John Christensen and Company the past
week. Their homes were in Amarillo,
Texas, and they had motored from
Amarillo to Galveston by easy stages,
in a Ford five-passenger touring car.
They carried complete camping equip-
ment of all kinds, and spent the ma-
jority of their nights under their own
tents, around camp fires made wherever
night happened to catch them. They
have left on,-their return journey. Mr.
Rasmussen, of Christensen and Com-

The Pallas company came very near
screeing a real accident during the
making of “The Lonesome Chap,” the
new picture which shows at the Crystal
Vaudeville tomorrow and Monday. In
the action of the story Betty Jonson
End Eugene Palette, two of the impor-
fant players, are supposed to fall down
a steep cliff and fall on the rocks be-
low. A high cliff was selected for this
purpose and the camera placed close
to a gully. Mr. Palette slid down over
the side and clung to the projecting
rock. Miss Jonson, lying flat on her
face, was supposed to reach over and
in an attempt to pull him up, fall her-
self. A tree was just below, and the
plan was for the girl and Mr. Palette
to fall in the tree and cling there. All
went very smoothly until the two hit
among the tree limbs. Their weight
was more than they had counted for,
and the tree groaned and cracked, and
broke at the ground. Fortunately, it
did not pull up, and did not break
entirely off, and the two were rescued
unhurt, but badly scared. Miss Louise
Huff and House Peters are the stars
of the picture, playing excellently in
their roles, but Miss Jonson and Mr.
.Palette are due the credit for the real
thrills of the action. The story is a
dramatic and delightful one. of a young

The new highway commission law,
which in all probability will mean more
to the good roads in Texas than any
step yet taken by the legislature, will
go into effect tomorrow. Under this
law all motor cars are required to reg-
ister with the office of the commission
and a certain fee is attached to the
registration, which will be instru-'
mental in. bringing the standarde of the
roads in Texas to a much higher level
than they have been heretofore. The
passage of the bill paves the way to-
ward the securing of Texas’ share of
the $15,000,000 for good roads in Texas,
in the next five years.
The bill provides for the appointment
of a highway commission consisting
of’three citizens of the state to serve
the term of two years or as the first
case may be to serve until suitable suc-
cessors may be appointed and have
qualified themselves. This board will
have charge of the matter from the
start and the roads improvement will
be under their supervision. The work
will be done with the co-operation with
the counties of the state. The bill also
calls for the appointment of a state
highway engineer, and shall act with
the highway commission in an advisory
capacity.
All funds shall be expended under
the supervision of the” state highway
department. In order to provide funds
for the work as outlined above every

Chicago, June 30.—Almost a com-
plete halt in wheat trading for fu-
ture delivery has been brought about
since a week ago by authoritative
statements that the federal govern-
ment would soon .take entire control
of all dealings in the cereal. Infer-
ences that the government scale of
prices would prove somewhat below
the prevailing level has had much to
do with causing the market to fall, so
that quotations this morning were off

corresponding time last week. Corn

ed 1c to l%c and provisions lost 45 to

Hudson Super Six Has Made Record
Cross-Country Run.
The Galveston Motor Car Co. has on
exhibition at their salesroom the Hud-
son Super Six, with which Ralph Mul-
ford, and an accompanying party of
three others, established the world’s
record transcontinental drive. Mulford,
with his three assistants, made the trip
from San Francisco to New York in
five days and three hours, and started
immediately upon the return trip from
New York to San Francisco, which was
made in five days and seventeen hours.
This car was brought down from Hous-
ton yesterday by Mr. G. K. Marshall of
the Galveston Motor Car Co. and will
be kept here for about a week. Those
who would like to see the car, or ride
in it, are cordially invited by Mr. Mar-
shall to call at their salesrooms. The
car stands now just as the cross-coun-
try ruh was finished. It has the same
tires on it that were eysed in the run.
It was a regular stok model Hudson

the factory, with the ’exception of an
extra gasoline, an extra oil and extra
water tank, which Mr. Mulford added
to the car to keep from stopping for
gasoline too often. After this gruelling

The term “commercial vehicles” does
not apply to those who are individually
owned by a firm and carry freight
for those firms alone, but only to those
freight or passenger vehicles who op-
erate for the public or other firms for
hire. The vehicles which are used for
delivery or other forms by the firms
alone are classed as pleasure vehicles
in the rating and pay their registra-
tion fee, according to that standard.
All owners so registering their ve-
hicles will be provided with registra-
tion certificates showing that they
have complied with the state law in
that matter and they will also be fur-
nished with a distinguishing seal of
some suitable material, which must be
affixed to the radiator of such motor
vehicle or on the front of a motorcycle.

Registration for the first period ;
In the production of “The Little
American,” various well-known author-
ities on conditions evidenced across the ,
ocean, have collaborated with Mr. De-
Mille, with the result that even the
most minute detail has been pronounc-
ed perfect. Again the combined arts
of Mary Pickford and Cecil B. De-
Mille have been linked together in the
cause of the photoplay and judging
from advance reports, this production
'will go down in motion picture his-
tory as one of its greatest works of
art, as well as one of its most powerful
appeals. “The Little American,” will
open a three-day engagement at the
Queen theater commencing tomorrow.
Raymond S. Carter of the Carter
Automobile Co. has just received an-
other carload of Studebaker cars,
among which was included the new
model, 18 series, four-passenger coupe.
