THE SUBWAY UNDER THE PARK.

NV o account has heretofore been taken of the question as to
INN the effect upon the trees of Military Park of the construc-
ton of a subway. The Shade Tree Commission sharply
calls attention TO the matter in a communication to the Mayor. 1t
may be affirmed that the preservation of a small public park should
not stand in the way of a great public improvement like a subway.
while it should be well guarded against the encroachments of a
public utility corporation that finds it cheaper to spoil a park than
to buy property. The subway is, however. a different proposition.
1t means much for the near future in Newarks transportation
facilities. and the project of the Pennsylvania railroad is but the
beginning of a great subway system for Newark, linking us in closer
bonds with Manhattan and giving as rapid transit electric lines
west. south and north. Improved transportation the city must
have, but, if possible, without any sacrifice of a public park.

A BODY BLOW FOR THE WATER-sNAKE.

TT + Governor Forts vigorous special message to the Senate Oh
the subject of the McCran antiwaterd diversion bill does not
procure the passage of the unamended bill by the Senate it
will be evidence enough that the influences of the East Jersey
Water Company and its allies hold the Senate leaders and majority
in thrall. a statement by the Governor is Of peculiar interest. He
is informed that the amendment which the water company asks 10
have inserted in the bill was submitted by the company to its
counsel, and was by him pronounced unconstitutional. In short,
he amendment was Il trick, characteristic Of East jersey Water

was, to say the least, decidedly-er,
inopportune.
With extraordinary preparations
for a gala day already under way
and a reception committee all but
appointed, folks who have been
reading dollar-a-word dope about
the bravery and ~ferocity of lions
and other of the alleged wild beasts
of Africa do not like this sort of
conversation.
1t is reactionary-er, disloyal and
smacks almost of lese majestic. But
it will not be so very long now until
the man who spoke of lions in this
disparaging way will find himself
being called forty kinds of a liar.

SHOULD EXERCISE CARE
IN PICKING OUT MACHINE
Many Points a Prospective Owner
Should Consider Are Explained.
Reliability of Maker Urgent

Automobile buyers these days are
learning that an automobile suitable
for one purpose is not necessarily suit
able for another and types have been
evolved with reference to many spe-
cial uses Design and construction are
so far standardized that the purchaser,
unless he looks into the materials ana
the record of the maker, is liable to be
confused. If the right choice is mace
he can get a car which mile for mile
will cost no more than horse and
probably much less and will far out
distance the horse.
The knowing purchasers choice re-
solves itself around the question OF
carrying capacity, speed, convenience
and taste in body style, supplemented
by his mechanical knowledge OF the
car.
When you buy a car it is good idea
to choose along the following hnes;
See that the car seats the number Oh
passengers you desire and seats them
comfortably, as pleasure is the prime
requisite in a car.
Observe whether the car has sufh-
cient power to carry its load at the
speed required and that it picks up
speed and is able to negotiate hills on
high gear without pounding or undue
effort. Quietness and lack of vibra-
LlOn are lIle DISl llSlllS III CNOAciiS OA
upkeep. Note the flexibility in the
range of speeds on the throttle with
out changing gears-how slowly it will
run on high gear without clutch Slip
ping. Fexibility is most important, as
by virtue of it gear changing is avoid
ed and the car is enabled to cover a
greater distance in days run. A
good motor should be able to accel-
crate and pick up speed on high gear
almost at a touch. A sluggish mo-
ton is dangerous, as there are often
times when quick and immediate ac-
ton is necessary. Your car should
start at a turn of the crank. Two
separate ignition systems are an ad-
vantage and are an anchor to wind
ward.
General appearance, comfort and dur
ability are points that can easily be
Judged by the reputation of the max
ers. Beauty of body lines and uphol-
sterlng are external points which mark
the high grade car and never can be
faxed. Last and not least is the care
of the car after you have bought 1t.
Will the firm stand back of its prod
uct and give you prompt and cheerful
service when you need repair part,
etc.?
See that the maker of your car is
reliable and that the first adverse wind
will not put him out of business, leaV-
ing you with a car on your hands for
which you cannot obtain repair parts.

OLDFiELD MATCHED
TO MEET De PALMA
Speed Burners Agree to Race on Flor
ida Race Course for Big Bet.
Barney Not Com
ing Here

Confirming the press dispatches of
recent date the Herald is in receipt of
telegram from William H. Pickens,
manager of Barney Oldfeld, which
reads as follows:
"Daytona, Fla, March 4.-[Automo-
bile Editor, Herald: Oldfeld with
Palma in 200-horsepoWer Fiat were
matched in New York today for a
threeheat race to take place here
March 5, the Fiat people betting $4,000
against $4,000 Of the Benz with Barney.
1t has been absolutely decided that
Oldfeld will not race in Los Angeles at
the first meet. 'PICKENS."
The above telegram alludes to the
rivalry which has existed between De
Palma, whose mile record Oldfield at
tempted to break on Ascot park when
here last with his 120-horsepower Benz
Since that time Oldfield has acquired
a 200-horsepower Benz which was in
the custom house at New York while
Barney was in the west The keenest
of rivalry has existed between these
two men for a long time, one of the
contentious being settled at Ascot park
when Oldfeld broke the fifteen-mile
record of De Palmas by fourteen sec
onds and won personal wager from
the great eastern crack.
1t will be seen also that Oldfeld's
engagements on eastern and southern
tracks are to keep him away for the
first meet on the big motordrome
track but it is known that he is most
anxious to come to Los Angeles to
take a try on that great speedway.
Oldfield has repeatedly stated he
would make that circle on Princes
track in twenty-five seconds with the
new Benz, and while that may be five
seconds faster than possible, the be-
lief of those familiar with this kind of
track is that thirty seconds will be
about the mark for such machines as
Barneys big racer as also that of the
class being driven by De Palma.

CHANTECLER HEADGEAR IS
LATEST FASHION IN PARIS

PARIS, March 4.-"Chantecler'' is
having an instantaneous effect on the
world of fashion. At a well known
milliner's establishment of the Rue
Royale, it is stated that the quaint
yellow toque, with it's yellow and dark
crest, worn by Nine. Simone as the
Golden Hen Pheasant in the play, is
likely to cause a popular revival of
gay-colored plumage in millinery, the
vogue for which has suffered severely
of late owing to the campaign against
the slaughtering of birds.
Many fashionable dressmakers and
milliners attended the premiere of
"Chantecler'' with a view of seeing
how M. Edels marvellous bird-plum-
age costums, which are the sensation
of Paris, will adapt themselves in a
modified form of everyday wear.
Nine. Simone wears her golden head
dress over chiffon which frames her
face. The headdress comes we'll round
the head on either side, and is divid-
ed at the forehead to give place to a
coquettish yellow beak and a black
crest.

CHICAGO HEN FIRST
TO LAY TINTED EGGS
University Professor Declares He
Started Process of Training
Caeklers

CHICAGO, March A certain hen
at Cornell may as well stop cackling.
Chicago hens have her beaten to a
FRAGILE"
"The process of making hens lay any
colored egg desired Is by no means
new one." explained Prof. Oscar F.
Riddle of the University of Chicago.
I'VE have made these experiments for
the last three years, and we find that
eggs may be colored any tint we de-
sire simply by placing dye in the food
which we give the hen. For instance,
If we want a purple egg, we give the
hen some purple dye in the corn meal.
The hen eats this, and day or two
later when she lays an egg, we find
a purple ring around the outer edge
of the yolk. If we keep feeding her
purple dye, in the course of a week
the yolk becomes deep purple"
but can nothing be done to produce
an egg which will have a colored
shell?" the experimenter was asked
"Our experiments along that line
are not as complete as with the in
terror of the egg" was the reply, but
l have produced a pink shell, and l
suppose that there are other dyes
which will produce other colors.

These experiments were carried on
while the plumage of the hen was
growing. and another interesting fact
was suddenly noticed. The roots OF
the feathers and then the feathers
themselves took on, to a degree, the
color of the dye. This created a
strange looking bird. / wish l had one

DIR. Riddle, "but 1 am sorry to say
that our supply of hens is limited and
none at present exhibit the tinted

"Dr. Riddle, in case one of these
colored eggs was to be placed under
a setting hen and hatched, what would
be the result? Would it be colored

was the reply. THAT is, the fat parts
of the chicken would be colored.

DIR. Riddle asserts that he is the first
to conduct these experiments which
resulted in the colored egg discovery,

conducted in other university labora-

FRENCH MOTORISTS TO
HOLD SMALL CAR RACE
Only Fixture Left in European Coun-

in Promoting Contests

The coupe des voiturettes. or small
car race, will again be held in France
this year under the management of
rAuto, the Partisan automobile daily.
1t is significant of the rise Of the light
automobile that this is the only re-
naming international speed race that
exists in France, despite the fact that
the first motor road races We're held
there and that it was once the center
of the automobile racing world.
The coupe des voiturettes was first
created in 1905 and since then it has
taken place every year with extreme
regularity, increasing each time in inn
portance and public favor. A few
notifications have been made since
last year. The minimum weight has
been slightly raised, but more impor-
tant still is that the length of stroke
of the motor has been left free to the
designers wish, while the bore will
remain the same as last year, differ
ing according to the number of cylin-
ders.
The cars must be fitted with motors
having a maximum bore of 100 milli-
meters for single cylinders, 80 milli-
meters for two cylinders and SO milli-
meters for four cylinders, while the
length of strokes is left free. The min

and footboards are optional. During
the race either of the occupants of the
car may take the wheel.
The entry list closes March 81, but
remains open to May 81 on payment
of double fees, which are fixed at 800
for one ear, $3.50 for two cars of the
same make and $500 for three.
This event is likely to prove big
success, for it is expected that large

many of the leading foreign firms may
