That question has often bothered Fed Rousseau, machinist of the Plain Dealer composing room who lives on the Garden Grove-rd. The soldition bothers him still more. This morning he just failed to get over the S. P. crossing ahead of an oil tank train. And while he and a number of other accommodating motorists waited what seemed like 20 minutes for the train to clear the crossing he figured that with each of the 71 cars having a capacity of 28,000, the train could haul L. S. B. 000 gallons or about 66,000 barrels, about three days' output of Signal Hill's newest gusher. National Secretary Talks to Convention The big banquet of the So. Calif.

FLAMING STAR MAY BE OPTICAL ERROR LOS ANGELES, Feb. 28.—Beta C.It, the burning star which has virtually achieved world-wide fame overnight may be an optical illusion, the product of distorted vision, it was indicated today by the announcement of scientists at the Mt. Wilson observatory, who failed to locate any phenomenal change in the star when they gazed at it through the big telescope last night. In the opinion of several of these experts, those who discovered the flaming star may have made a mistake and observed instead the famous variable star in a sudden increase of brightness. The variable star is sald to increase to a surprising brilliance at certain periods. JAMMED IN ICE STEAMER SENDS S.O.S. HALIFAX, N.

The Egyptian beaded bracelets are narrow and transparent, come in eight colors, each of which is symbolic. Yellow symbolizes the sunlight, green the East and great god luck; turquoise is supposed to ward off the "evil eye." White stands for purity, amethyst is constancy, and red ambition, love or passion. There is one little Fifth avenue shop presided over by a woman who recently visited the Orient. She brought back a collection of bracelets and is doing a land office business in them. Somewhat similar bracelets were found in the tomb of Tutankhamen. 65 DELEGATES OF FARM CENTERS AT COUNTY FAIR MEET CITY LAND BURNSTO U. S.

Coach Lucille Bickley has worked DEATH HUNT Probe Mystery of Five Slain Men off California Coast LOS ANGELES, Feb. 28.—The U.S. government joined today with state authorities and officials of Los Angeles and Santa Barbara-co.s in attempting to fix responsibility for the death of five fishermen from this port and from Santa Barbara. A revenue cutter is reported to be held in readiness p.dash to Santa Cruz island, off the California coast, to run down a clew which is said to point strongly to the belief that bootleg pirates brought about the ocean tragedy. Two of the dead men are said to have been murdered and the other drowned—whether by accident or design remains to be disclosed. Both customs and prohibition officers are working in conjunction with the state and counties and it is possible that naval forces also may be called in. Prohibition Agent Dolley and Division Chief Anderson, together with Collectors of Customs Schwaebe, are actively engaged in fathoming the mystery of the quintuple tragedy. The theory on which the officials here are working is that the fishermen, encountering severe weather and being driven on the coast of Santa Cruz island for shelter came upon the camp of sea-pirate bootleggers and were mistaken by the latter for revenue officers. A fight, it is believed, resulted and in it the fishermen were killed. The bodies of the five victims were found at widely separated points on the beach and in coves of the wild, uninhabited section of Santa Cruz island and Channel Island, off the coast of Santa Barbara. The missing fishermen disappeared mysteriously about a month ago and the body of Isaac Newton was found several days ago in Scorpion bay, Channel Island. The report received here stated that the bodies of the other four fishermen, Capt. Frank Nidever, Capt. Jerry Schively and two other unnamed men, were found on Santa Cruz island.

Rioting, fatal train crashes in which at least 22 met death, reported reigns of terror resulting in horsewhippings and similar forms of punishment, combined with general conditions of seige throughout the seized Ruhr district today. The train tragedy, it is charged, resulted from mixed signals, due to the confusion of both French and German handling of the railroads. Twenty-two persons were killed when a stationary train outside Deuren was telescoped by a fast train from Aachen, according to reports from Essen. The express had been switched onto the wrong line, it was believed. DAMAGE OF SHORT CIRCUIT BEETLES Beetles which bore through lead cables, and which, nevertheless, do not or can not penetrate pure gum-rubber, have proved a serious problem and pest in California and many other parts of the United States. One of the most important injuries inflicted by these beetles is the damage done to the lead sheathing of telephone cables in California. The beetles bore circular holes in the sheathing, about one-tenth inch in diameter. Moisture enters the cable through these holes, causing a short-circuit of the wires and interrupting the service to the public. As one hole may be put from 50 to 600 or more telephones out of use for from 1 to 10 days, the damage is rather extensive. PETITION PROBATE OF WILLS Petitions for probate of the wills in these estates were filed today. Olle Miller, killed in an auto wreck on the Huntington Beach-bldd, this week property of $459; R.

Wheedon of the bureau, is identical with the one introduced two years ago and allowed to lapse or vetoed by former Governor Stephens.
