Track Level Stretch Near Walker Id Scene of Million Dollar Safety Experiments After a month of preparation in the Southern Pacific yards in Eu g’-ne, tho American Railway associa tion's million dollar tests of row safety equipment started Last w»ek on the level stretch of track n "ir Walker, north of this city. The first train to be u*e»l in the practical working t««*t of devices, worked out after more than four years of experiment in the Inborn- torie* of Purdue university, was ready to leave th»1 Eugenyard* last We«ines<lay afternooa. The test train is composed of locomo tive and 5») ears, all especially •»quipped for the experiment. Mjo*t of th»1 train i* made up of tank ears, «pared at intervals by cabooses which house recording instruments and observer* keeping check on the action of the train during tht tests. Two dynamo meter cars, one following the en gine and the other st th«’ r or of the train, furnish electricity for operating the recording intru- meats, lighting the car* and the like. The experiment i* in the charge of Prof, Henry Keubrnkocnig of Purdue university assisted by a staff of research men from th»1 university and technician* from the several organizations interested in the undertaking The tests will extend over a period of not les* than ten months, according to Prof. Reutirikoenig, anil will be repeated over all type* of track- between Eugene «nd Dunsmuir, Cal., which wa* selected as the most suitable stretch of track for the purpose ¡n the United States.

Soma snakes, how ever. loathe those of other species -»nd kill them on sight. German uaturaLsts have observed the t rderous passion In souie birds, especially stork«. One cele- brated naturalist tells of a stork -triangte trncedy" enacted on a high chlmuey pot. While the male mate was away a younger and lisudsomer mate came to woo the lady. She first repulsed, then tol erated, then succumbed to his blandishments. Then, when the old f usband was out frog hunting one day, the guilty pair flew to hfs marsh and belabored him to death. Beginning of Superatitioi The word “»uper»tltlon" Is de rived from the Latin "•uperatltlo." excessive In religious belief, pos sibly originally a standing over a thing tn amazement or awe; from •‘»ui*rstare,” to stand above or over. Superstition Is closely allied with the »ocalle.i ethnological phe nometia known as survivals. Among the ancient |H*oples—as, for In stance. the Assyrian»—It was part of the ofll.'lal state religion to prophesy concerning the future from the flight of birds, the nature of dreams and similar occurrence«, nnd where such customs aud the correlated beliefs persist they may be regarded as survivals. Among them, perhaps the most persistent In the country districts Is the be lief In ghosts and In the Influence of the moon. In parts of Europe the effects of the “evil eye” are ■till feared, while tn the Vnlted States the horseshoe, caul, four- leaf clover, etc., are still regarded us emblems of good luck. “Daddy, Start tha Raaor” Nine-tenths of the bright sayings of children nre duds, which Is un fortunate, because once In ■ while a child achieves something droll or striking.

Dwellers on the shores of Lake Constance were en chanted the other day by a clear and vlv!» picture of that part of the town of Immenstadt with the Herzberg palace appearing In the heavens and remaining visible for some time.
