in consultation with him concerning

Strikers Exceeded Rights.
Gov. Hartness said he believed from
the REPORTS of the occasion that the
strikers went beyond their rights nn-
der the law in interfering with the
realty company men and tracks.
He said that the selectmen of Rock
ingham. the chief o. police and speci-
al deputies, Sheriff Wellman and
States Attorney Whitney of Brattle-
boro. all witnesses of disturbance,
had reported that they were unable to
cope with the situation here should
similar need arise. The governor said
that on the basis Of these reports he
had ordered state guards to be mobi-
lized and that they we're ready to
come here on an hours notice should
the situation become critical. He
said that he believed IL more men
we're to be brought in from the Yer
mont side that the troops would be
needed to supplement local police.

Animal Waves.

Investigation has been made OF the
peculiar wavy motion of centipedes
and milllpedes, with the view OF de-
termlnlng the manner In which these
animals manage to use their super
abundant pedal extremities so grace
fully and harlnoniously. II is found
that the legs move In groups, or
waves, each wave including a definite
number Of legs, The number OF waves
Included In the length of the body Is
constant for each species. In mlli-
pedes the waves of each side are syn
chronous In centlpedes they are SYM
metrically alternate. giving rise to
beautifully accordantl movements. The
difference may be explained by sug-
gestIhg that the mllllpede moves like
a pacing horse. the centlpede like
