Sept. 2.--On tho heels of the Interstate t'oinniorco Commission's scathing denouncement of the Now Haven road for tlio re cent Walllugford wreck. In which It was held that "man failure," be ginning with Its high olllclals and inilliig with Its trainmen, was re sponsible for the loss of twenty-one lives, sentiment of those In charge began rapidly to crystallzo in a movement to take up the whole Bubject of action for train safety at Tlio llandon Surf says: "Joe Coach, who In the early days of Nevada before Governor Sparks put the kibosh on nil forms of gambling, was familiar with all kinds of de vices used In games of chnuce, hns a curious wheel Mhleh has sur vived those good old days and which, It Is susplcloned, he will take to tho stato fair at Salem. The wheel Is perfectly siiuaro nnd, al though considerably In want of re pair, Is a comparatively good wheel, as wheels go. loo Is familiar with a few othor wheels also, but as ho has about lost the bug which prompts even the best of us Ut take a fall out of the fickle god or chance, ho will confine his un divided nttontlon to tho good old relic or by-gono days and nights also. Tho village gambling end ot the project will lie handled by tho old original Ituick llerron.

S1EEL ALINED Scatter Load Shells YOU'VE got to shoot quick when you are in the brush, and then with the standard shell in a choke bore gun, you usually blow your bird all to pieces. Next time you're out, take along a few Remington-UMC Scatter Loads Arrow or Nitro Club for close shoot ing. They give the same spread at 25 vards as the standard load at yards and greater penetration. Do not mutilate your bird. The steel lining gives the speed, and the special system of wadding spreads the pattern. Prove it on a paper target with your good old duck gun. Get Scatter Load Shells at your dealer. Remington-UMC the perfect shooting combination. Look for the Red Ball mark on every box of ammunition you buy.
