The report printed . few days ago that q buck
deer had been killed by q train near sayville.
l.. l.. reminded sportsmsn Of many similar trag-
edles Of tho animal world. when the bu fraloes
roamed across tho plains they not infrsquently
compelled trains to stop until tho herds had
passed. Antelopes were killed quito often by
the locomotives.
The glare OF the headlights at night seems to
stupefy birds and beasts that cross railroad
tracks. Owls are killed frequently. as we'll as
many other birds, during the migrating season.
An engineer on 4 Now Jersey railroad, while
passing through the pIneries one night, heard q
faint crash OF glass above the roar Of the train.
Instantly tho headlight went out, and tho fro-
man went forward to learn the cause. A short
cared owl had nown into the glass, broken II,
broken the chimney OF the lamp. and lodged
against the reflector. a dead bird.
Tho fox. in spite OF It's craft. is one Of the ami
mails most frequently killed by trains. The
chances are that most OF the foxes killed arc
young and mex perienced. In England foxes
closely followed by a pack OF hounds have been
known TO run In front Of n train along tho track,
then jump Off again before tho train came up.
The dogs would follow after In full cry and q
dozen or more would be killed. One pack ran
under tho wheels OF an express In their eager
ness TO get the fox.
Rabbits. wild turkeys. skunks.. partridRes,
quail, squirrels. Wild ducks and geese, and
many other kinds OF animals that abide near
railroads, have been killed by the trains.

At tho moro expensive restaurants tho walters

The New Yorker who has made this discovery
accounts for It on the ground that less ~servility
is expected at the cheap places than at tho
more expensive restaurants. The Same feeling
Of independence which keeps American men and
women from becoming household servants pre-
vents the first from becoming walters at res
taurants whore too much Difference to the Gus

theory, he has also discovered that foes, which
