HOW IT HAPPENED
Tho Explanation of tho Automobile
Driver and a Climax
Af tei hx victim of the accident was
carried to the sidewalk the automobile
driver turned his machine aud came
oacl and explained how It happened
with considerable warmth
This woman he volubly remarked
to the policeman was entirely to
blame She ran around from ahead of
the street car and deliberately put her
self In my way After she had dodged
the coal cart it was too late for me to
stop I couldnt tell which way she
was going and when 1 saw that she
was dazed and foolish 1 jammed on
the brakes and tried to pass to the
left but of course she had to run the
same way and the consequence was
that in endeavoring to avoid a baby
carriage with twins in it and an old
man who was walking with a crutch
I suppose I must have hit her But I
wasnt going iihhv than two miles an
hour and any woman who would
dodge around in that foolish way and
lose her head shouldnt be permitted
to go on the streets without a bunch
of guardians
The policeman nodded
Come over to the sidewalk he said
and take a look at her

MEMORY Ul FISH
Striking Results Shown In a Test With
Gray Perch
Even the fishes of the sea have pic
tures on memorys wall Experiments
have been made with several fishes
as to their faculties for remembering
but the most striking results have been
obtained with the gray perch which
lives chiefly on small silvery hued
sardines Some of these were taken
aud colored red and were then put
Into the tank where the perch was
with several silver colored sardines
Of course the normal sardines were at
once seized and eaten but it was not
until hungry that the perch made a
tentative meal of one of the red col
ored victims
On recognizing the sardine flavor
however he promptly demolished the
remainder Later the perch devoured
the sardines irrespective of color thus
showing not only traces of a memory
but also the power to differentiate
color
Subsequently sardines colored red
und blue were placed in the tank to
gether with the silver ones The same
scene was repeated the blue sardines
not being attacked until the others
were eaten and hunger compelled In
vestigation of the newcomers After
this introduction the perch ate the sar
dines of all three types without any
difficulty
Some spines of the sea nettle were
then fastened to the blue sardines
These were at once avoided by the
perch which promptly got out of the
way of the newcomers This showed
traces of memory as the results of
contact with the sea nettle were shown
and recognized Chicago Tribune

search of pearls they take every ninth
find whether it be Iarge or small and
put it iuto a bottle which is kept
corked with a dead mans finger The
pearls in the vial are known as seed
pearls or breeding pearls and the
native Borneose firmly believes that
they will reproduce their kind For
every pearl put into the vial two
grains of rice are thrown in for the
pearls to feed upon Some whites
in Borneo believe as firmly in the su

The Wonderful Toad Bone
All early writers attribute wonderful
qualities to toads and frogs and the
various parts of their bodies Pliny
believed for instance that if a toad
was brought into the midst of a mob
or other large and unruly concourse of
people silence would instantly pre
vail A snrall bone found in the right
side of toads of the proper age was
also believed to have powers over the
i various elements By throwing this
bone into a vessel of boiling water
says Pliny it will immediately cool
it the water refusing to boil again un
til the bone has been removed To
find this bone expose the dead toad
on an ant hill When the ants have
eaten her all away except the bones
take each bone separately and drop it
into boiling water Thus may the
wondrous toad bone be discovered

Lovers of Sports
The Anglo Saxons love sport No
matter in what part of the world they
are found the spirit is strong among
them Wherever the restless Anglo
Saxon dominates the love of sport is
dominant The Americans are at
feast the most of them descendants of
this virile race and nowhere is the
love of sport so much exhibited as in
this country Our people are patrons
of horse racing of baseball of golf of
football of all out of door sports as no
other people The English are great
sportsmen but not to the extent that
Americans are for the reason that the
opportunities are greater here Nash

Through Trains to be Electric
Lighted
In the history of American railroad
ing no such extensive and costly im
provement of coach lighting has ever
been attempted up to this time as
that which will be made effective by
the Burlington route the first of
June
On that date all of its through
trains will be electric lighted from
locomotive headlight to observation
platform The most efficient electric
lighting system yet devised has been
adopted namely the dynamo system
With this system there is installed
in the baggage car of each train a
high power dynamo which supplies
the current for the entire train Or
dinarily when the dynamo car is de
tached there is a distinct dimming of
the lights but under the dynamo sys
tem not only is enough current gen
erated to light the train when it is
in motion or standing still but
enough surplus current is stored in
each individual car to brilliantly light
it for several hours without any di
rect current from the dynamo This
in itself is a big improvement over
other systems of car lighting
To inaugurate this service it has
been necessary to entirely re equip
electrically seventy two complete
trains for the Burlingtons through
trains not only reach all the cities
of the middle west but also the Pa
cific coast In addition practically
the entire passenger equipment of the
railroad including locomotives bag
gage cars mail cars coaches chair
cars dining cars sleeping cars and
observation cars has had to be en
tirely re equipped for electric light
ing and at very large expense
Another very important feature
and one not found on any other rail
road is the exclusive train electri
cian which each one of these elec
trically lighted tli rough trains carries
The train electrician is an electri
cal expert who travels with the train
from start to destination and whose
duty it is to see that the electric
lighting system is kent in nerffpr
working operation all the time It is
also his duty to look after the proper
ventilation of the train and to see
that it is properly heated that it
does not become too cold by night
or two warm by day
The Burlington is also the only
railroad in the country which has a
completely electric lighted suburban
passenger train service af any size
all of its suburban trains of which
there are sixty odd being dynamo
electric lighted
With this great improvement the
Burlington route which already is
unexcelled in its equipment dining
car service regularity with which its
trains run on time and complete
block signal equipment
will have pas
senger service as nearly perfect in
all details as it is possible to make
It
