There Is con siderable agitation in Eugene over s proposition to remove the street car track which extends In front of 'he Patterson public school building on Al der street, to A street, one block furth er east. This is on account of the accident last week in which Hattle Sumner was run over by a car and In stantly killed. Immediately after the accident several citlsens got up a pe tition to have the track removed to A street and it has been largely signed. It will be presented to the city council at Its next meetlnc. The track ex tends on Alder street only two blocks. and the petitioners argue that it will be no great trouble to move It to A street. The company claims it wil entail a great expense, as It will nece sltate the laying of three blocks of new track before the old track abandoned. The company was granted a franchise on Alder street and Is now building a long passing track on that thoroughfare.

Few of the men In the navy today realize the great difference of everyday conditions of na val life.

"Ail the ships in our navy were woooem at mar time, witn tne ex ceptlon of a few monltora The Euro pean S'tuadron consisted of the Pensa cola, Kearsargo and the Qulnnebaugh.

Why, when we got our first rifled guns, two six-pounders, we sgaln thought we could lick anything afloat. We used them for some time for firing salutes only. Our old ships were rotten. In those days we used la rare hemn rones to counteract the re- coir of the guns after they had been fired, but today we have the most mod ern recoil apparatus known to naval ex perts. "I can remember very well that when the navy department prepared to con struct what was known as 'The White Squadrcn,'" consisting of the Chicago, the Atlanta, and the Dolphin, now the secretary of the navy's yacht, there was the greatest protest from some su thorltles because they were to be made of atel lrsfad of wood. With our old vessels we thought we were fairly fly ing when we steamed four knots an hour on speed tests. Our engines were forced to their utmost capacity to make that speed. I guess, for our decks danced up. and down at a frightful rate. And - our ammunition 11 mamas mo laugh when I think of it. We used to fire away at targets with our old nine- men smooth bores over wnat are now short ranges. We could hit the mark all right, snd we were proud of It. But It Is amusing now to think how our shells would turn and twist and roll while making their flight. They didn'.t look anything like our modern shells. which make their flight in the same position as that In which they lie In the gun, business end foremost.
