RACE FOR EMPEROR'S CUP.

The automobile race for Emperor William's cup was run June 14, 1907, and was won by Nazzaro of Italy in a Fiat in 5 hours 34 minutes and 26 seconds. Hautvast was second and Michel third. The circuit selected for the race covered a distance of 125 kilometers, which had to be traversed four times to complete the distance of 500 kilometers, or about 312 miles. It was in the country adjacent to Homburg, Germany.

12:14:05%, an average of 63.35 miles an hour. Nazzaro was second and Clement third. There were thirty-two starters. In 1907 the race was shortened from two days to one day, the distance being 478 3-10 miles. Nazzaro of Italy in a Fiat was the winner in 6:46:33, with Szisz of France in a Renault second and Baras of France in a Brasier third.

OTHER EUROPEAN ROAD RACES.

run

In addition to the Grand Prix in France and the Emperor's cup race in Germany there were several other important road contests in Europe during 1907. The Florio Targa, a 290-mile race in Italy, was won by Nazzaro in a Fiat in 8:17:36, with Lancia of Italy second in a Fíat and Fabry of Italy third in an Itala. There were two races for the Tourist trophy in England, one for heavy touring cars. The Tourist trophy proper was won by E. Curtis in a Rover, who covered 241% miles in 8:23:27. The heavy touring car race was won by G. P. Mills in a Beeston-Humber, who did 201 miles in 7:11:01. In these two races each car was allowed a certain quantity of gasoline with which to cover the distance. Only two finished in each race. The Sportive Commission cup race, run in France at the same time as the Grand Prix, was won by De Langhe of France in a Darracq. Two styles of races were held on the Ardennes circuit in Belgium, the one under Emperor's cup rules being won by Brabazon in a Minerva, who covered 375 miles in 6:14:05, and the one under Grand Prix rules was captured by De Caters in a Mer

ONE-MILE CIRCULAR-TRACK RECORD. Twice in 1907 was the one-mile record on a circular track beaten. The record was :53, held by Barney Oldfield in a Peerless Green Dragon. Walter Christie in a front-drive racer of his own design cut this to :52 at Minneapolis Sept. 7 and Oct. 17 this was reduced to :51% by Louis Strang, driving the Christie, at Birmingham, Ala. The fastest track mile is :48%, made at Morris Park, New York, in 1905, by Webb Jay in a White steamer. This mark was not accepted because there is only one turn in the track.

OTHER SPEED RECORDS.

Several world's records were broken at the annual automobile races on the Ormond-Daytona beach course in Florida Jan. 23-30, 1906. The following table shows the best performances at the meeting:

It was 29.7 miles long and was covered ten times, making the total distance 297 miles. The winner was Louis Wagner of France, driving a 110-horsepower Darracq. His time was 4:50:10%, making his average speed 61.41 miles an hour. Lancia of Italy in an Itala was second in 4:53:28%, and Duray of France third in 4:53:44%. Albert Clement of France and Jenatzy of Germany were fourth and fifth respectively. There were eighteen starters. The record to date:
