Lightning Tuesday night started blnies In the Nez Perce forest near Dixie, but it was believed that regular crews could control them. In south Idaho the Challis fire, which had burned over 1400 acres, jumped from con trol lines yestprdtty, but the Salmon forest blnze, which had devastated 8,000 acres in ten days, was believed to have been subdued. Observers in the Boise forest reported that a con flagration that had run amuck for ten days, had been controlled. In Washington the fires were umaHer. An obstinate blaze near Marcus, which had been controlled twice, broke loose and after burning several hundred acres of grain ana menacing much farm land, was brought under control again last night. Another blaze on the Narhes river, 35 miles from Yakima, also was sub dued. Forest officials have posted storm warnings in all forests,-and state of ficials have asked that only necessary travel bo allowed in timber. SALEM, Ore., Aug. -.(AnAn electrical storm in tb Santiam na tional forest Tuesday afternoon caused eight forest fires, according to word reaching Albany. All were believed to be under control. At mospheric conditions . Wednesday caused considerable uneasiness, but no additional fires have been reported. BEND, Ore., Aug. 1. OP) Charles Rude, 44, whs killed by a bolt of light nine last nieht while at work in tho yard of the Brooks-Scanlon Lumber company here. His shoes were torn from his feet and most of his cloth ing was ripped to shreds. Other workers near Rude were knocked down and at least one was rendered unconscious for a time. Thirty-seven bolts of lightning were counted Tuesday night in the south Applegate section of the Crater na tional forest and two email fires were caused, one at Mount Hal fly and the other at Burton Butte. Both were reported under control. The same electrical storm caused 16 fires in the upper McKenzie and upper Willamette valley sections of the Cascade national forest. -Men were sent out to combat the new firea.

Three carloads of tekhn.Val enuipment to be used in the experi ment were brought from ths labora tories, including scientific instru ments, many of which have been es- i pecially invented for the work At , hand. Office and workshops have been set ud at the Southern i'adtic yards. I where a long track at the car repair , shops has been set a nice for the work of .reparing the 200 tank cars and lfi cabooses which are required in the : experiment. All men who can be j bpared from their regular duties in j the car repair hops have been set to heloine Mr. Iteuuenkoenig and his staff in putting the air brake equip ment m first class condition, and wir ing the cars for the various elec trically operated devices which are i to be used in recording the tests, j Afr Leakage Tested . Everything w made a matter of record. Air cylinders, fitted as they are with moving parts, will leak air, ! so, after th leakage from the cylinder ' has been reduced to a minimum, the rate of leakage for each particular : braking unit is recorded. These rates , of leakage are of vital importance in , che. king the result of operating testa. ! Not only are the normal leakagm from the air cylinders measured, but the cylinders are fitted with pe'eocks and plugs with microscopic holes which permit leakage of air at pre determined rates, the result of work I in the laboratories. Much arrange ments make it powible for the ex I perimenters to artificaily create con ditions such as normally arise from time to time in the course of operat ing trains. Electrically operated Instruments installed in the caboores record con ditions of ail sorts throughout the train. Two dynamometer era are nued In the experiments to supply electrical current for the recording apparatus, electric lights, etc, in the cabooses, s well a to carry Instruments which will give records of the work of the locomotive pulling the train. ' The train is made up of a locomo tive, followed by a dynamometer car, the tank cars, spaced at regular in tervals by the instrument carrying cabooses, with the second dynamo meter car ar,d a regular caboose for the ne of the train crew, bringing up the rar.

Brakel Servlea -PHONE 1999 Tl President Tm. R. Sloan of the Northwestern States Mission of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints accompanied by hia wife, Mrs. Pearl O. Sloan, president of the Re!i-f Societies of the North west, will be in Eugene Saturday and Sunday, August 3 and 4, for the purpose of conducting a con ference of the south Oregon dis trict, a part of the Northwestern States Mission. Representatives from all the outlying branches of the church will be In attendance, includ ing the 15 missionaries laboring in the district. President Sloan Is also known to the business institutions of the United States, he having aerved as vice-president of one of the largest federations of business men in the world for three years. December, 1927, he declined his business af filiations and accepted the call to preside over this mission. Elder Preston D. Alder, president of the south Oregon district, re- Eorts that two special meetings will e held Sunday. The first at 2 p. m. and the second at 7:30 p. m.( In cluding Sunday school Sunday morn ing at 10 o'clock. Musical numbers will add to the theme of these meet ings. A welcome to the people of Eugene to nttend and especially to hear president and Mra. Wm, R. Sloan is extended. There are no collections requested at a Mormon church. ed with the experiment. Telephones have been Installed for the use of the observers so that messages might be transmitted the length of the train. Trains to Be Used Trains of BO, 100 and 150 cars are to be used in the tests, which are to be made first with empty cars a:td then with the tank cars filled with water to stimulate loaded conditions. While the lasts of the present mlr equipment are being carried on BO cars will be fitted with the new de vices so as to be ready for use as soon as the first tests are completed. Thus It will be pwsible to begin the second series of tests while the cars used in the firnt are being refitted, avoiding a great loss of time. The first tests are now being made with a train of 50 cars on the level stretch of track near Walker, betwet-n Creswell aud Cottage Grove. The tests consist of stopping and running train under certain specified condi tions as to speed and braking equip ment. The Btart of tho testing stretch is marked in such a manner that a special contact device in the engine touches the boundary marker and automatically begins the operation of the air brakes and of the recording instruments, which have previously been set at the xero niait. Automatic pens on the instrument make trac ings which indicate to the scientists just what took place all along the length of the train during the test. An interesting example of the prob lems to be worked out by the staff was that of securing a means of indi cating the position of the different cabooees during the course of the tests. There was no existing method of accomplishing what was of vital importance in securing accurate data on thtf distance traveled by each ca boose while coming to a stop. Ex periments by one of the younger as sistants resulted in the invention of a genuine paint gun. The commercial paint gun is in reality a nozzle which throws a spray of paint, but the one used in the experiment might be said to actually nhoot. Electrically con trolled and mounted or, the underside of the caboose. It is aimed at the aide of the steel rain and shoots a spot of int on the rail as soon as the test be-ms. By using different colore of paint for each of the cabooses, the movement of each can be traced with relative ease and ao accurate meas urement made. The level ground testa completed, the train will be taken to other locali ties between Eugene nd Dunsmutr for tpsu on grades of varied degrees. Tho heavy gradea over the Siskiyous will probably be the scene of the final tests. While Prof. Reuhenkoentg esti mates that the testa will take a mini- Page Three mum of lo months, the tests may ei ceed that length of time. While mak ing the tests, the experiment train will be subject to control by the rail road dispatchers just ts any other ordinary train would he. The experi menters will be faced with the prob lem of getting their work done with out interfering with the operation of the regular train service over tha line. The actual operation of the train will be in the hands of a regular train crew who will handle it under the direction of Prof. Ucubenkoenig at such limes as the dispatchers will per mit the use of the track. Such operating conditions and the probability that different phases of the work will have to be repeated be fore satisfactory results are obtained are factors which muy extend the testa well over the 10 month's period.
