Police Killed and Several
Wounded
BY Associated Press.

GREYTOWN, Natal, April 5.-The
colonial field force which was concen-
trating at Impanza, twelve miles north
west of Greytown, for operations
against the insurgent chief Bamboata,
the deposed regent of the Greytown
district, has been compelled to abandon
it's laager after heavy fighting and re-
tire to Greytown. A portion of the
force sent to rescue the women and
children isolated at Keates drift sue
ceeded in so doing, but while return
ing was attacked by rcbellious natives
A running fight was kept up for six
miles, the Zulus continuing the pursuit
until within a mile of Greytown. Three
of the colonial police were killed and
several were wounded. The remainder
are safe at Greytown.
The police report that the rebels are
in strong numbers and flushed with
victory and the officials fear further eX-
cesses. A strong force of artillery, in
fantry and mounted men is moving out
of Greytown today to operate against
the rebels.

LAY EGGS WITH HANDLES

Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
ORANGE, N. J., April 5.-Robert F..
Foster, jr., of Newton, Essex county.
has. it is reported here, succeeded in
cultiVating a race of chickens which
produce eggs already fitted with
handles for convenience in eating them.
One just exhibited was taken from the
nest-of a white Leghorn hen. 1t is nor
NAL in size and general. appearance,
except that on the smaller end there is
continuance of the shell formation,
measuring half an inch at it's base,
tapering for nearly two inches and end
ing in two points which resemble the
tail of fish.
The form of the eXcrescence is a
curve, the smaller end resting near the
middle of the shell of the egg and hav-
ing a perfect resemblance to the handle
of teacup. The opposite side of the
eggshell is fattened so that the struc-
ture will stand alone. The hens have
laid seven eggs of similar conforma-
ton. each furnished with a well de-
fined handle.
Mr.. Foster has devoted a large por-
ton of his life to series of expert
ments in the cross fertilization of
flowers and fruits. The egg with Il
handle is a direct result of his expert
ments i'm superinduced evolution.
Several weeks ago, while breaking an
egg at the breakfast table, he COM
ceived the idea that an eggshell with a
handle, which would form it's own cup
would not only save lots of dishwash-
ing, but would be at once a scientific
and culinary triumph. Thereupon he
caused the inside of the building where
the hens are confined during the winter
to be painted white. Food was taken
TO the hens in large, white vessels,
each having one handle. Water was
furnished in similar vessels of a smaller
size.
Across the single window white tea
cups were suspended on strings. No
other furnishings of any other shape
were permitted to be around the build
ings. The hens were nightly sung to
sleep to the tune of drinking songs
Within ten days many of the eggs
had slight eXcrescences OF one end, and
after two weeks the new eggs had
definitely formed handles.
One notable incident apparently
facilitated the experiment. Mr.. Foster
has a large, white rooster which two
weeks since escaped from his coop into
a neighbor's yard. The neighbor $
small son chased the rooster home and
threw at him broken white pitcher
which had a large and conspicuous
handle. The rooster was much fright
ened, and the hens witnessed the oc-
currence.
When the home market is supplied
with the new and valuable acquisition
Mr.. Foster purposes to place some of
the developed eggs under hen. The
result will be awaited with eager and
scientific interest.

HUNGARIAN LEADERS AGREE
Coalition Party Under kossuth Presi-

Which viii End Deadlock
By ASSOCIATED Press.

by Associated PreSS.
BUDA PEST, Hungary, April 5.-As
a result of conference of leaders of
the coalition party held here today un-
der the presidency of Francis Kossuth,
a complete understanding has been
reached which may be expected to end
the Legislative deadlock. Herr Kos
suth and Count Andrassy started to-
night for Vienna, where they will have
an audience with Emperor Francis
Joseph tomorrow.
Premier Fejervary at his interview
with Herr Kossuth here yesterday, is
reported to have suggested summoning
the lower house of the Hungarian par
Lament to discuss the electoral reform
bill, and the subsequent issue of writs
for new elections under the proposed
law providing for universal suffrage.
The scheme is said to have been ap-
proved by the emperor-king and por-
tion of the coalition party, but it is un-
derstood that the followers of Count
Andrassy, the former premier, and the
clericals were opposed to the sug-
geStion. .-.--. 30 Or

coast metropolis. Think of the social
gatherings and big crowds at the
theaters every night, the club life and
public meetings generally.
"I believe the electric lines should
cater to the limit to the needs of the
people. Give us owl cars as late as pos
sble, 80 the working people and the
pleasure lovers can get home without
being compelled to fork over three dol
lar fares to the cabs"
Judge Pierce Sees Advantage
Los Angeles has reached stage
where she must either be identified as
an ordinary little city or one of the
progressive cities of the country" said
Judge Henry Pierce yesterday.
"One of the first things to be taken
into consideration for the advancement
of the city is the all night car propo-
stion. For years Los Angeles has been
hampered by the position of the rail-
way companies in refusing to allow
late night car service.
1T seems shame that the citizens of
this community give such magnificent
support to the railway and yet the
company refuses to do single thing
to accommodate the people.
Thousands of tourists point out the
defect in car service as one of the most
objectionable features of the city. Many
of them coming from eastern cities take
it for granted that a city of the size
of Los Angeles would naturally nave
night car service and without inquiry
they stay downtown in the evening as
late as they wish only to find that
they must spend the night at Motel
or walk to the suburbs.
There is no doubt in my mind but
that if an owl car service in Los An
geles should be inaugurated, the people
would not only he more friendly to-
ward the railroads for the courtesy. but
the support of the proposition would be
so strong that the company would reap
considerable harvest from night
patrons
Would Help Theaters
John w. Blackwood, manager of the
Belasco theater, says that the owl cars
would be of inestimable value to the
theater.
Half the time the last part of our
plays are ruined by the unrest of the
people in the audience who must
catch the last car.
1--WE put on a big productions and dur
ing the last act we feel that people are
becoming uneasy with the fear they
will not be in time. They want to visit
q cafe for supper and as consequence
there is Inconvenience all around.
During our presentation of THE Ad
mira BILE CrichtOn' we suffered no end
of Inconvenience. Always before the
curtain drops on the last act many of
the people are out of their seats. thus
spelling what is often the best situation
in the play.
I'm other cities where / have been the
owl car system has proved a great help
in changing this
II most sincerely hope we will have
a late car service i'm Los Angeles"

PROMINENT MEN FAVOR "
NIGHT CAR SERVICE
WOULD GREATLY HELP LOS ANGELES
Mayor McAIeer, Judge Pierce and Many Others
Express Themselves as Heartily Approving
Proposition to Run Owl Electrics

Representative citizens of : Los An
geles are now demanding that the troll
ley magnates concede one Of the wishes
of the people, to whom they owe so
much, and provide for their. comfort by
establishing night cars. ~
Mayor McAleer is heartily in favor
of the establishing of late cars because
he recognizes that Los Angeles is far
behind the eastern cities of a few thou
sand inhabitants in this respect.
People have been demanding that the
late cars be put into service for several
years or since the city began to grow SO
rapidly Heretofore the owners of the
street railways have paid no attention
to the desires of the people but have
continued to ask favors from the public.
The citizens who are largely inter-
ested in real estate or in business see
the great advantage that system of
owl cars would give over the present
schedule. - q
In fact, Los Angeles people have long
had to stand calmly by and be laughed
at by tourists from small cities because
their home towns possessed what they
did not These cities now say that the
establishment of owl cars has become
d public necessity as well as a con-
Venience.
Workers Need Night Service
Trolley officials acknowledge that late
cars would induce people to move to
the suburbs, but they do not wish to
run the cars because they say it would
not be paying proposition at the start.
1t is not only the pleasure seeking
people who are now asking for the owl
cars but the workingmen are demand
ing them There are several hundred
people in Los Angeles who are detained
in the city after 1890 o'clock and they
have to wait several hours for the
early morning car when they could be
at home sleeping if they had any means
of getting there.
The people who spend their time seek
ing pleasure only can afford to pay car
riage fees, but the workingman cannot.
1t is nov the intention of the citizens
to put their demands in such shape that
the railway officials will take some
cognizance of them.
Mayor McAleer expressed himself as
being in favor of owl cars yesterday
in the following words: -'---
Mayor Advocates Service
"This city is large enough and i'm
portant enough for the street car COM
panes to run cars on the main thor
oughfares.
"If we can't have them all night we
should certainly have them until the
early hours of the morning.
This city has grown to such an eX-
tent that the citizens should not be
dependent upon the caprices of the
street car companies and should not be
bound to take a car at a certain hour
fixed by the street car companies or ac-
cept the alternative of walking home.
Robert Marsh Is Emphatic
"Owl cars kept running until 2:3O
or later would certainly be a fine
thing" said Robert Marsh, of the real
estate firm of Robert Marsh & Go.
Later cars" continued Mr.. Marsh,
ARE really public necessity in city
the size of Los Angeles.
"The demand here for the best of
car service is greater than that in some
cities twice the size of the beautiful
