Hugh Chalmers, who until not so long ago was on of the highest salaried officers of ths Dayton Cash Register Company, drawing; from Its treasury in salary and commissions more than $70,000 annually, which he gave up and left the Gem City to become a resident of Detroit, was at the Waldorf-Astoria a few days ago. Mr. Chalmers Is now one of the great automobile manufacturers tha country. The making of automobiles, enormous though It Is, he thinks la but In Its Infancy. A year from, now.

he looks to see the best car cost not mors than 43,000. His company will clean up more than $1,000,000 in profits, and could have made more had they the working room. The company could not take any more orders. What la true of this Detroit company. Mr.

Chalmers says. Is equally true of most all other manufacturers of automobiles, Mr. Chalmers was in New York at the recent Vanderbllt cup race. On tha great Vanderbilt course on ong Island he was introduced to Sir Thomas Upton under peculiar circumstances and with rather a laughable experience. A car carrying Mr.

Chalmers and his party occupied a vantage point at the side ef the course. Mr. Chalmers waa out of. the car stretching his limbs when up stepped Jack Johnson, the negro prise fighter. Johnson had out to the races In his touting ear.

He had met Mr. Chalmers in Detroit when seeking to buy a car. Their meeting on that occasion was. of short duration. Brief though It was, Johnson remembered Mr.

Chalmers well and came forward to greet blm. Mr. Chalmers, of course, knew who Johnson was and shook the hand of the burly prise fighter when It if as eztended. They had chatted but a moment or so when along came Sir Thomas Upton and his party. Johnson had met Sir Thomas, who is a genuine sport, at the time that Sam Fttx-patrlek, then manager of 'the negro prise fighter, took htm to England to polish off the fighter Tommy Burns in the "squared circle." Manager Fltspa trick and Sir Thomas had long known each other, and Ham -saw; to it that a meeting between the lea Cup anf his black ring protege was brought about Sir Thomas knew the prise fighter aa soon as he set eyes upon him at 'the Vanderbllt course.

Johnson also readily recognised the nobleman. They advanced and shook hands. The warmth of Sir Thomas's greeting surprised some of those about this group. Then the black prize fighter turned about to Mr. Chalmers.

1 "Sir Thomas," said Johnson, "Ah desiah youh all to meet myah bes' an' busum frlen', Mistah Chalmers, ob Detroit" The Introduction waa acknowledged, aa becomes gentlemen, and all went on their way. The following night while dining with an English friend at Delmonlco's, Sir Thomas came along as one of a party from the Kw York Yacht Club. He paused to shake hands with the Englishman at Mr. Chalmers's side. Mr.

Chalmers was introduced. Sir Thomas looked at him closely and then said: "Mr. Chalmers, I believe you and I have met before." "Yes, Sir Thomas." said Mr. Chalmers, with a broad smile, "at tha auto race yes-' terday." The introduction at the Vanderbilt course was explained to the others in the party. It was noticed that Blr Thomas had no explanation to make.

"Well, Mr. Chalmers." said Sir Thomas, finally, "I am certainly willing to stand for that Introduction if you are. I am always glad to acknowledge the acquaintanceship of any man who gets ahead in this world. And I don't care much what business or line his ambition to achieve success, has led him to battle in. It takes the same thing (gray matter) to get to the top, accompanied by close application and some luck, I will admit That is the reason I welcome the acquaintanceship of this fighting ''man.

Johnson. He Is the champion of the world In hie chosen field, even though he-is. a blaok man. It took on his Dart to a be successful not brains alone, but also great brawn aU fine muscle and superior tact Then one must stop to think that i on account of liis color Johnson was handl capped at the very start. Now.

Mr. Chalmers, that is the way 1 view things In this Battle of Hre." Some well-known Cincinnati people were at the swell hotels of New York- yesterday Tor their Thanksgiving dinner. Among inese were jar. ana Mrs. Frank B.

to be In the Gem City ester day morning. As It usually occurs when Jimmy Cox starts-after anything, he got there, Mr. Cox waa arranging -to buy new press to be placed in the big building for the Dayton News when While In New York the ''Congressman was put wise to a situation. lie was also! requested to do-a certain thing. The man who -put him wise was, United States Senator Joe Bailey.

Mr. i Cox (-had all to do with' having Gov ernor Harmon do some work tn; the hustling of the Lone star State in the last Presidential campaign. It is Heed less to state that Ohio's chief magistrate made a decidedly, good impression among the Democrats of Texas. Now Governor Harmon's frtenlds, not only in Ohio; but throughout the 'country aa well, are trying to 'k tart him in the next Presidential race. The stakes In that race, the nomination, have been at the mercy of one Bill Bryan for so many years that his backers appear to think the stakes are a part of his earthly possession.

They can not bear to think of him losing the Aa soon as the backers of the Black Cloud goer discovered that the speedy Harmon waa being well handled for this important event they grew anxious. They wanted to know why Harmon should even be entered in the race. They commenced to draw oft the Texan Harmon backers by accusing them of working up a scheme to sandbag him, as it were. They wanted to know why Harmon was even thought of as an entry for the race. The Texans who had Congressman- Cox arrange with Governor Harmon to make political speeches in Texas found themselves ostracised by Bill Bryan's men that Is, politically, of course, and socially, for that matter, wherever that was possible.

That is the situation. Now for the request. In such dire straits are the men who had asked Mr. Cox to fix It up get Harmon to go to Texas and lend the helping hand that they have again appealed to the Ohio Congressman. They have requested Mr.

Cox to write out fully ail the circumstances of Harmon's having been invited into Texas at all. Of course, these Texans, as the case with Mr. Cox, were only trying to aaslst their party. But Bill Bryan's men will permit of no man being talked of except BUI. Funny, isn't it? T.

"Here Is a new one I heard the other day," said Congressman Joseph L. Rhl-nock, who is Interested in big theatrical ventures as well as he Is in politics. "John Byrne was telling It to me. He said that he was somewhere up here in New York State during the late fall harvesting of the farmers. John claims that he saw several men whose general appearance was familiar to him.

He mentioned this to an old farmer acquaintance, who said: "Them's actors.

It was plain to see that somebody's thoughtfulness was appreciated. The statement made In "Foyer Talk" In Ths Enquirer last Sunday that James Murray Allison had been sued by Leander Sire for $7,000, alleged to have been guar anteed by Allison when "The Debtors" wai booked at the Bijou, is denied by Allison, who says that he lost several thousand dollars on the venture. Everything for which he was be says, was paid In fUU before the show closed. John E. Madden, the wisard of the race track, is taking tips from his bright young son, Eddie.

Just before the opening of the Old Glory sale of horses at Madison Square Garden yesterday afternoon Mr. Madden -was found carefully examining i three-year-old trotter named Soprano. "Eddie thinks pretty well of that chest nut filly." said Mr. Madden, referring to his fifteen-year-old son. "He- haa seen the mare and thinks I ought to buy ber at any price.

When Soprano was put up there was spirited bidding. It started off at $5,000 and Jumped by hundreds, being finally knocked down to Mr. Madden for $7,000. Afterward Mr. Madden said: "Edward thinks she is the only mare that can take the place of Hamburg Belle, said Mr.

It is in plain ly luininiiea omces, occupied by the Great mormern Kali way Company, at 32 Nassau treet. that there is a larae room at one end with a ground thus door labeled "Pres ident.

Like the Other room rentx! trim Great Northern this one Is almost lackinar In the furniture considered necessary in the ordinary downtown office, while of comfort able chairs and rich looking desks there Is an entire absence. The Inexpensive rolitnn desks and a large, plain table, which look as though they might hare beeTn left as the movers dropped them, take un but a small part of the large room; and a visitor Is likely to decide that the economy which enables Mr. Hill to carry low-class freight tbrouxh a sparsely settled territory at such a satis factory profit begins at the top. -I ne resident office, however, is little used. Louis W.

Hill, who occupies that position, directs the road's affairs from ut Paul, and is In New York. His father, who resigned the Presidency two years ago to become Chairman of the board. uses one or the desks on an average of a day or two each month, which is about all the time that he spends at his beautiful home on Fifth avenue. He prefers Washington and St Paul. It might be remarked that the month' vacation which the rolllop desk has had is not apparent more than a few moments after Hill reaches the New York office.

James J. Hill Is essentially, and above everything else, a railroad operating man. i ne taxes great pride In boasting of the wonderful Northwest, which supplies his lines with tonnage, and he was not only farm born, but is to-day a better farmer than most men who have no other occupation. He is a thorough sportsman, with one of the trimmest yachts on the Atlantic; and be wonjd rather go fishing than 'do most anything else; but in all his activities he always has time to study the figures sent htm by the under officials of the four HU1 roads. And when he takes out his pencil and with a little rapid calculation discovers that the Great Northern has made a new low record In some expense Item or a new high record In train, loading or business carried, his quiet chuckle expresses tbV keenest pleasure he' knows.

On his desk, when he la here, Mr. Hill has reports from the Great Northern for the business done for the week previous, and for the fiscal year up to. and including that week. These reports, moreover, are given In much greater detail than In the-annual statement made public. There la an lteml-gatlon of the traffic, which shows at a glance where It is coming frefm, so that Mr.

Hill can look over the sheet and tell what districts are selling their wheat and buying manufactures. This sbeetshows Increases and decreases over the corresponding preceding year, various Items of operating expenses, and even the one week's share of the fixed charges, so that he knows at all l.timea exactly what surplus has accumu latea tor me naci up 10 ine Beginning of the current week. Mr. Hill these and many other reports wherever he happens to be. His statements are not all concerning Hill roads, for he reads the published figures of other Western lines with Just as much in.

terest aa those of his own systems. He has comparative tables prepared by his statis ticians, which enable him to tell instantly which roads are Improving their operating results and which- are going in the other di rection; and he takes the greatest satisfac tion In tracing out the superiority of the Great Northern In any respect, even as If it surpasses the-Northern Pacific or Bur lington. There is a bit of family rivalry between the Great Northern and the North. ern Pacific, for one of Mr. Hill's sons heads the former and another Is Vice President of the latter.

It Is not hard to discover where J. J. Hill's sympathy lies when he starts to compare these two transcontl-nentals. Mr. Hill recently has passed his seventy-first birthday.

He haa always. worked hard, and has amassed an Immense personal fortune, which relieves him of any further desire to make money for himself. He maintains his position aa the foremost rail- road man In this country by the dailv ap plication which he gives to his work, and It la surprising what an amount of correspondence and other data he gives his personal attention. While he waa In New York the other day-his secretary brought In a pile of letters. The top on cheap note paper by a hand more accustomed to manual labor, was front a small farmer In Canaaa, who said that he was a former employe of the Great Northern.

The writer modestly asked his former chief to build a railroad to the section In which his farm is located, and volunteered his aid to laying out th line. Mr. Hill read the letter with Interest, and laid It aside for a personal answer. Lafe Block. old-time Cincinnati boy who now owns race horses -of his own, is back rn New York, after a stay of some time in California, most of his time having been spent in San Francisco.

"I saw two thing good for any man's eyes out there," said "I met my old friend Sam Fltapatrick, one of the greatest trainers of prise fighters. It must be ad mitted, in the world, and I saw a hotel top of Mount Knob, which- Is the largest on the face of the globe. Earthquakes will never rock that hotel, and there room and bath may be had fofl 50 per day. Since getting back oi New York, speaking of hotels," added this globe trotter, "I ran into something I think more than passing strange.

This latest addition to the ranks of those of a superstitious turn of mind is new Bayonne, N. hospital, erected with the proceeds of a public collection.

It was dedicated yesterday afternoon and I waa there, so I know," concluded Mr. Block. -t Did you ever see a drove of turkeys?" asked James E. Baxter, of Lexington, as he dined with a party of friends last night at the Since none of the group had. Jimmy continued.

"I have not only seen droves of turkeys, but I have driven them on horseback. Yes, sir; three and four thousand at a time. Kentucky, Virginia and Tennessee are great turkey-raising states, and when the birds are ready for market 10 days or two weeks from Thanksgiving, they are driven from the farm along the turnpike Into town and there crated for shipment to the larger cities. The easiest and most convenient way, the less expensive way, la to drive the hens and gobblers in great droves. To a city man it Is a most surprising sight The turkeys are aa tractable aa so many sheep, and they obey the driver's voice.

"It Is not necessary-to use a whip or switch, for the turkeys, like wild ducks. flock together In large The domestic birds are too heavy to fly for any considerable gistance and they are too fat and heavy by this time to walk very fast As a general thing tha farmer trains a half dosen of the birds to recognize a given name, or cry, and these turkeys act as leaders. We'll say a turkey's name is 'Pete Gobble.
