Birds Steal Rides.

Birds are fast taking the place of hoboes on the brakebeams of trains, according to John E. Sexton, presi- dent of the Eureka-Nevada Railroad company of Palisade. Nev.

 Citing an instance, Sexton said that about 300 birds riding on a Southern Pacific train passing through Nevada from the east recently flew from their perches between the coaches when the train passed over a rough crossing.
