BIG GUNS TESTED THOROUGHLY
Secretary Stimson Pleased with Sue
cess Under Great Difficulties

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. lit
has become known that the big guns
of the heavy defenses guarding the
southern entrances to New York har-
Dor were given an extraordinary test
Saturday in the presence of Secretary
Stimson and Gen. Weaver, chief of
coast artillery. The day was raw. the
thermometer standing at about five
degrees above zero, and a gale of so
miles an hour sweeping over the har-
Dor. The soldiers were obliged to ope-
rate the delicate range-finding instru-
ments with their bare hands, and so
bitter was the cold that the gun cart
ridges worked stiffly and did not re-
turn to the loading position after dis
charge, making loading operations
much harder
Under all these difficulties splendid
results were attained. Two targets
were towed by a tug at distance of
31a to miles from the batteries and
there is NO doubt that every shot at
them would have been a hit on bat
tleship. This was the first time coast
artillery ever held fire command serv-
ice practice under such unfavorahle
conditions of wind and weather. Sec
rotary Stimson was greatly pleased
with the results.

of the Western Washington Expert

the last fifteen years, not less than
s2o,0ss,000 has been sent out of this
state for poultry and poultry products
For a long time 1t was believed that
weather conditions throughout the
Northwest and particularly in North

to a profitable poultry industry. But
the experiment station has entirely
dispelled this erroneous notion. Its
Investigations demonstrate that chick

growing population, Mr.. Blanchard
figures that during the next fifteen

tory to the naval authorities. How

That the derailing device at Parker

r. e. n. tracks cross each other is In
fine working order was proven Fri
day when 1t derailed an O.-W. r. q
N. train coming from the east. The
system worked splendidly and the en-
CINE, the baggage car and the fore
part of the smoker left the rails and
cut up the ties in fine fashion. The
train came to stop almost instant
iy and the passengers, looking out the
windows saw Northern Pacific No.
whizzing past at forty miles an hour
Had the Northern Pacific got the
derail, at the speed at which it was
travelling there would have been splin-
tiers. AS it was the damage was not
great for the Hartman train was not
making great speed and its passen-
gers were not even seriously shaken
Unqnestionably, say the passengers,
but for the interlocking device the
trains would have met.

sengers on the O.-W. r. G. N, land

The railroad crossing at Zillah on
the Donald railroad is a dangerous
one, according to a report filed at

two women narrowly escaped death
there. The matter is under investi-
