GOODYEAR MACKINTOSH CO. 829 CHESTNUT Opposite Conlinenlal Hotel SL State Organization Is Not to Be Forgotten by the Road Drivers at Their Next Meeting With the light harness racing season practically closed, barring a few more matinees on local tracks, the attention of the majority of horsemen is now centred on the Speedway. The popular public speeding course is as yet in au incomplete condition, although In good shape considering the time elapsed since the beginning of work. In its present condition the footing gives evidence of making one of the fastest brushaway and public speeding courses iu the country. Interest in It grows daily and if last Sunday's crowd of spectators and unexpected number of drivers and contestants is any evidence of the Speedway's ultimate popularity then it is safe to predict that this municipality never built any pleasure roadway of equal resultant pleasure to the masses, not alone those who like to speed, but the great majority who love to witness the exciting brushes thereon.

Overanxiety and yearning eagerness to contest upon the Speedway msy work injury to the course in its present unsettled condition. particularly from heavy driving teams permitted to drive its length. It is time to suggest proper regulations for seeding, not a hurried haphazard scurrying along of miscellaneous vehicles hauled by a lot of varied gaitcd horses. I bunching in one another's way. with little or no chance to cut loose.

Permitting otbr than the light speeding wagon aud allowing any horse hauled trap to go over it repeatedly will cut up the course badly. A few weeks at'best remain for speeding the Speedway, but iu that time there should be some effort to protect what is recognized for its length and surroundings to be the greatest speedway on earth. Present indications make it safe to predict that the middle half of the Speedway will tie fastest for that distance of any speedway yet constructed, and the half usually finishes 1)0 per cent, of speedway road- i Ster. What is to be done -with the Speedway dur- ing the winter months is frequently asked. Its surface and sub-soil should undoubtedly be pro-! tec-tea and covered in, just as the fastest traek of the country are protected against the wintry elements.

This thought does. Dot suggest the of any pleasure of the speedy roadst-i. but rather iu the spirit of tboughtf uluess for better going in the spring, and throughout th ytar. It would be a different matter if it were nor a newly made roadway, and parr b-ular- ly an incompleted speeding ouww. By sil means let every road driver be more concerned about the future of the Speedway than the I They "Wind 1 1 Their Tournament at the A.

C. of P. Thirty-three bouts and two forfeits const'- i tufed -the finals iu the thirty-fourth amateur; boxing tournament which came to a close at i I the Athietie Club of Philadelphia last night. I Almost every loul made a lively contest and the tournament wound up in one of the most i successful ever held inder the auspices of the A. C.

of p. Some of the rights were very exciting. The Sam Mi Her-Jack Bowler go in the 135-pound class was a corker. It was the tirst meeting of the men and during the three rounds neither I eould secure any advantage. Au extra round I was ordered and in the three minutes Bowler appeared to clearly outpoint Miller, but the latter received the decision, this decision was the only one that did not suit the crowd.

Albert Grander stopped James Smith in one round. 145 Pound Class The opening go in this class between John I.ancon and Joe Franklin was the best of the night from a funny poiut of vi.w.

Sweden, announces the fact that the i Nobel prize, the blue ribbon of the scien- tific world, which is given to the person i having made the most important discovery or invention in the department, of phy-j sical science during the vear 1002. ha. been awarded to Guzlielmo Marconi, the inventor of wireless telecraphv. by the Swedish Academy of Sciences. This honor is a signal recognition of the fact that to Marconi alone are due the 'material benefits we have derived from the introduction of wireless telegraphy into practical use.

The Nobel prizes take their name from Alfred Nobel, who died six years ago, and by his will provided that live prizes of $40,000 each be given to those who "in the course of the preceding year shall have rendered the ereatest services to humanity." The recipient of a Nobel prize, therefore, not only ranks with the foremost men of learning of the world, but he also receives such a substantial gift of money, 40,000, as to aid him greatly financially, even though he be already a man of means. Dr. Nobel's life work and the disposal he made of a fortune of SlO.000,000 form a strange paradox. He was the inventor of the most deadlv explosives which have yet been invented, and he devoted the proceeds of the fortune thus made to encouraging the arts of peace. The history of the Nobel family is linked with explosives and death-dealing instruments.

Emanuel Nobel, the father of Alfred Nobel, was employed to lay subterranean mines for the Russian Government. Robert, another son of Emanuel, was in charge of the submarine mines of Kronstadt during the Crimean War, blew up several English men-of-war and saved Kronstadt from capture. Among other things, Alfred Nobel discovered dynamite, and companies for the manufacture of it were established all over the world. From this and other soureea the great fortune of Nobel was accumulated. The five annual rrizes are to be given to the person who has made the most im-portant discovery in physical science, in Prevents and Cures 'Tt'i well." easier to stay well than to get Most all diseases in this latitude are caused or aggravated by taking Cold.

During the six months following the laureate is obliged to give a nublie lecture in Stockholm on the subject of the work crowned. Mr. Marconi is onlv 28 years old and is the youngest man to whom this high distinction has ever been awarded. It is a source of great gratification to him and to his friends that his wonderful invention h.is been thus signally honored. PRESIDENT NAMES THANKSGIVING DAY Bounty of Providential Mercies in Past Year Should Be Fittingly Commemorated Oct.

31. The President to-dav issued his annual Thanksgiving proclamation iu the following terms: By the President of the United States of America: A Proclamation The season is at hand when, according to the custom of our people, it falls upon the President to appoint a day of praise and thanksgiving to God. During the last year, the Lord has dealt bountifully with us, giving us peace at home and abroad and the chance for out citizens to work for their welfare unhindered by war, famine or plague. It behooves us not only to rejoice greatly because of what has been given us, but to accept it w-ith a solemn sense of respon sibility, realizing that under heaven it rests with us ourselves to show that we are worthy to use aright what has thus been intrusted to our care. People's Government a Success In no other place and at no other time has the experiment of government of the people, for the people, been tried on so rast a scale as here in our own country in the opening years of the twentieth cen tury.

Failure would not onlv be a dread ful thing for us, but a dreadful thing foi all mankind, because it would mean loss of hope for all who believe in the power and the righteousness of liberty. Therefore, in thanking God for the met-cies extended to us in the past, we beseech Him that He may not withhold them in the future, and that our hearts may be roused to war steadfastly for good and against all the forces of evil, public and private. We pray for strength and light so that in the coming; years we mas with cleanliness, fearlessness and wisdom do our allotted work on earth in such manner as to show that we are not alto gether unworthy of the blessings we have received. Thursday, November 26 Now. therefore, Theodore Roosevelt President of the United States, do hereby designate as a day of general thanksgiving, Thursday, the twenty-sixth of the coming November, and do recommend that throughout the land people cease from their wonted occupations, and in theii several homes and places of worship render thanks unto Almighty.

God for His manifold mercies. In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. Dnnf at. the citv of Waahincrton this thirty-first day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred ano three, and of the independence of the United States the one hundred and twen-tv-eighth.

POLICE ARE GIVEN SECRET ORDERS Called in Conference With Director Smyth and Superintendent Quirk Gambling Crusade Probable For almost half an hour yesterday all the police captains were closeted in the private room of Superintendent Quirk, Trhere they -were addressed by Director Smyth. The director, it is understood, spoke to them in a general way upon a project to be taken up by the police department, after which the superintendent gave the captains specific instructions on the subject.

The meeting was held behind closed doors and the utmost secrecy observed. Nevertheless there was an impression around City Hall that soon took the shape of conviction, that the topic of the secret meeting was gambling. Each captain is known to have gathered his lieutenants together as eoon as was possible after meeting wun director cmyxn, ana 10 nave imparted to them the instructions issued by fhe director and superintendent.
