Railroads Getting Safer

A decrease in the number of
persons killed by railroads in the
United States of 1926 is shown in
the report of the interstate COM
merce commission for the fiscal
year ended June 80, 1908. There
we're 1854 persons killed and $3.50
injured in railroad casualties in
this country during the fiscal year.
The decrease of 80 per cent in the
number of killed is thought to be
due to the use of safety appliances
and the greater care exercised in
the movement of trains on the
railroads in the country.

ENTHUSIASTICALLY it will be the
most beautiful exposition ever held
in the world,'' was the opinion, un-
hesitatingly given, by Charles
Dana Gibson, the great artist
whose fame is world wide and who
is at present IN Seattle. Mr.. Glib
son, in company with Norman
Hapgood, editor of Golfers Week
ly, spent several days at the expo
sition grounds studying its points
of prospective interest and enjoying
the scenery around the state uni
versity. It was Of the Alaska
Yukon-Pacific exposition that the
artist referred when he addressed
himself in the foreg ling language
to the officers OF the exploitation
department. Mr.. Gibson, who
came to the coast to get color for a
series of new pictures, and Mr..
Hapgood, who is accompanying
him. also on a similar errand for
himself, arrived at Seattle with the
idea that they would not come
back here next summer. Both now
declare that they will return here
about the first of June to take in
the exposition. They want to see
the completed picture that will be
presented in the grounds and finely
grouped and handsome buildings.

their way to Blue and Moses la kes.
A. K. Copson, sidewalk contrac-
tor in Spokane. and party of five
men returned to Spokane tonight
after a seven days hunt at Moses

one goose. Copson had the best
luck, shooting So out of the total
number.
Another Spokane party of four
men bagged IS ducks and eight
geese in six days of hunting on the
same lake.-Spokesman-Re Review.
No wonder that the game of the
northwest is fast disappearing,
when pot hunters are allowed to 90
out and slaughter birds like this.
Such men should be charged 500
a day for county license. They
are not sportsmen in the true
sense of the word. It is this class
OF hunters from Spokane and other
cities who are rapidly decimating
the game in this section.
