Absurd Beliefs About Hedgehogs
In olden days the hedgehog was ac
credited with the possesion of many
wonderful powers. Pliny and after
him Aelian and others have related
how it would climb apple and iig trees,
shake down the fruit and afterward
fall upon and impale the fruit on its
spines and carry them off upon its
back. The belief that it was in the
habit of milking cows during the night
is likewise a \ cry old one.

Why She Prized It
At a whist party an unmarried lady
won a consolation prizo, which proved
to be a small dressed doll in male at
tire. Unwrapping the toy, the donor
discovered thut he head had been brok
en off.
"Never mind!" exclaimed the recip
ient, good-iaturedly. "I will prize it
all the more on that account. It's the
first man that ever lost his head over
me in all my life."

hard center frog for steam railroad use;
solid mannard frob, design 166; spring
frog for steam railroad, standard used
'by the Pere Marquette road; solid man
nard hook heel switch, made from 151
pound girder rails, for use on street
ear roads; one, solid mate, of same rail
and construction; one rapid renewable
mannard hard center frog, made of 151
■pound rail. A number of switch stands
of the following types: Ned Era, New
Century and; Main line.
Bocks Used in Panama Locks
Those pieces are mounted on small,
movable pedestals, or on mahogany
bases especially prepared for this ex
hibit. Another exhibit is a cast steel
rack, such as is in use in the locks of
the Panama Canal. Almost 10,000
racks like this sample have -been sent
to the Isthmian Canal Company from
the steel foundry of the local plant in
1913 art! 1914.
One of the most interesting features
of tho exhibit will bo the Mayan prod
ucts consisting of cast iron and fraught
steel parts in extensive commercial use.
Wrought material containing Mayari,
with a content of nickel and •-.hromiuni,
show drop forgings in various »:
which indicate the adaptability of Ma'-
ari for practically ail purposes wlic •
tough and readily worked steel is re
quired.
A striking feature in the Mavnri ex
hibit is a display stand with large ma
hogany base and tower effect in four
columns, from which is to be suspended
one ton of tile May ari pig iron by a
one-and-one-eight inch Mayari heat
treated bolt turned down to five thirty
seconds of an inch. in thickness. One
of these 'bolts sustained a lead of 2,300
pounds for one entire week during the
A. E. H. M. A. convention in Atlantic
City in October, 1914. These bolts
are used with all the Mannard hard
center work furnished by the Frog and
Switch Department.
There are many miscellaneous pieces,
such as rail braces, rail sections, of
various weights; switch stand targets,
switch stand lamps, rail joints and
spring boxes for street railway
Hwitches.
Hatchets That Can Chop Steel
A model of the latest style of the
double connecting tongue switch in
aluminum has been made in the Prog
and Switch Department for the exhibi
tion. The bridge shop and forge de
partments will be represented by char
acteristic products anil pictures which
will be displayed on back panels of
the booth, and the columns supporting

LATE WARNEWSSUffIiyiARy
Continued I'rom First Pace.
lies In both the east and west is due
to the fact that they are awaiting the
entrance of new members into the com
bination against the Teutonic nations.
It is said that Rumania, with 000,000
soldiers, is virtually ready to enter the
war on the side of the allies.
An Important advance has been mado
by the British army, if, as is roported
in London, it has virtual possession of
Lille. This city lies just south of the
Belgian border to the east of the battle
line held for several months and its
occupation by the British would mean
that a sharp bend has been made in the
German front. Neither the French nor
German war official statements, how
ever, has given official confirmation of
the London dispatch.
Renewed activity along the coast of j
German aircraft which bombarded 1
Dunkirk has revived rumors of a Zeppe-!
lin raid over England. One Zeppelin is i
said to have moved toward the English i
coast from Dunkirk.
Another lull in the fighting along the I
Vistula, in Russian Poland, is recorded
by the Petrograd War Office. The fury J
of the German attack has not spent it
self, however, and, although the at-1
tempt to break through the Russian i
line west of Warsaw may have been
given up for the time, the movement
from the north continue in full force.
Pour successive German attacks were
made in this region and, according to
the British version, they accomplished
little.
The British press considers that Sir
Edward Grey's reply to the American
note concerning British interference
with American shipping has disposed of
the issue. The reply is regarded as
satisfying to British public opinion and
the British newspapers take the view
that it should satisfy the American
public.
