ice. TO HOLD
HEARING HERE
Question of Providing Curtains
on Engine Cabs Will Be
Discussed

Approximately 100 persons are
expected here tomorrow to attend
the hearing by Examiner Rogers Of
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion on the question of whether rail-
roads should provide curtains on en-.
gine cabs.
Witnesses from North and South
Dakota and Montana will testify
here and will deal with conditions
affecting enginemen and brakemen
in the three states. The purpose of
the hearing, according to members
of the state railroad board who will
attend the hearing, is to determine
if curtains on engine cabs are neces-
sary or advisable to protect train
crews. Most Of the engines now in
use by North Dakota railroads al
ready are equipped with curtains, it
is said.
Hearings on the subject already
have been held at Madison, Wis, De-
troit, Mich, and Albany, N. T., and
the Bismarck hearing will be fol-
lowed by others at Portland, Ore,
and Denver, Colo.
Is Result of Legal Dispute
The case wss brought before the
Interstate Commerce Commission by
the Wisconsin railroad board after
the supreme court Of the United
States held unconstitutional q Wis
consin law requiring the railroads to
install curtains on engine cabs in
that state. The court held the mat
ter subject to the jurisdiction Of the
Interstate Commerce Commission
and not to the laws Of any state.
Members Of the Brotherhood Of
Railway Trainmen are taking IN
active interest in the hearings, &C.
cording to c. w. Mcdonnell, state
railroad board member, and will be
represented here by Thomas Steven
son and r. H. Mclaughlin, attorneyA
I'D Timothy She's, vice president Of
the brotherhood, al Of Cleveland, G.,
as well as by numerous witnesses
from the three states covered By tho
"A. According to information received
here, southern railroads are making
the hardest fight against the pro-
posal, contending that It would be
an unwarranted expense if they
were required to equip their engine
cabs with such curtains.
It is expected that al railroads
interested in the matter will Be
represented by attorneys and also
J viii produce local witnesses.

ANTELOPE HAPPENINGS IN THE
GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK


his poor showing as. is evidenced by
later developments.
In order to permit the animals
access to a greater browsing area, the
gate shutting off passage to the east
was removed. This act was the in
centive that caused split in the
band.
Three Of the bucks, accompanied by
three does, Immediately passed beyond
the former barrier and took up their
haven at Indian Garden; distance of
IL miles from their former home.
Abundance Of forage is present at
this place.
Crooked horn and three does remain
at Hermit camp Here he rules with
out opposition over his dwindled fol-
lowers apparently sobered to the
realization that man is even greater
than himself.
Mountain Sheep Visits Studio
Although mountain sheep (Ovis
canadensis) are seen occasionally by
parties on all of the trails leading into
the Canyon, yet it is a unique sight to
see one Of these sure-foted animals
away from the crags Of his home.
Such an event took place. a short time
ago when a large eve left her Canyon
home to explore the top.
On two successive days this inci-
dent occurred. The first day she
arrived at the head of Bright Angel
trail and spent a short time looking
in the windows of Kolb Bros. Studio.
1t is certain she did not want her
picture taken for she refused to pose
and retreated down the trail. The
following day she appeared again to
continue her explorations. She spied
4 garbage can in the local post
masters back yard and edged up to it.
The interested human spectators, how
ever, seemed to cause her so much
chagrin that she returned to the Cam
Won without even tasting the in
gradients of the can.
No explanation is advanced for this
action. The mountain sheep is
generally content to remain among
the jutting rocks of his home, per-
mitting but a fleeting glimpse as he
disappears from view, or again he
may remain like statue peering
down on unsuspecting human beings
below.

BY G. E. STURDEVANT
Grand Canyon Park Naturalist

The past month has witnessed some
interesting happenings in the small
antelope band within the Grand Can
yon national park
Crooked Horn" as he is known,
is the outstanding buck Of the band.
During the past year he has ruled the
other members with an iron hand.
Each of the other members would
stand aside as he passed in due
respect to their recognized lsader.
Crooked Horn fairly staggered along
the Tonto Plateau apparently aware
of his own Importance. Perhaps it
may have been dissatisfaction with
the small world over which he ruled
so majestically or again it may have
been due to his own egotism. AT any
rate uneasiness was manifested in
Crooked Horn and finally brought to
climax.
Shorty" Welch, the trail caretaker,
has acted the part of the good shep-
herd for the small band during the
past year. Each evening found the
members congregating around his
tent for protection, while every morn
ing the band would follow him along
on the trail, browsing on the vege-
tation Of the plateau. Welch little
suspected any animosity towards him
on the part Of Crooked Horn and his
clan. That he was mistaken in his
belief was soon apparent.
Welch was working on the trail
when the thunderbolt, in the form of
a powerful charge from Crooked Horn
struck him. He picked himself up
several feet below the trail in time to
meet another charge. The second
charge failed to have the same gravi-
rational effect upon Welch that ac-
companied the former. By some
miraculous means he was able to step
aside and obtain good grip on the
animals horns. A struggle ensued
between man and animal, with the
remaining nine members Of the band
acting as. spectators At last the
violent plunges of the animal ceased
and Welch released his grip. A third
charge was not forthcoming for
Crooked Horn beat a hasty retreat
leaving Welch undisputed victor of the
day.
Crooked Horn undoubtedly lost the
respect of some of his followers for
