HEDGEPORT. May 7.—Failure of
~ we local police authorities to deter-
mine how Captain Joseph Ehlert came
to his death has determined some of
the members of Hamlet No. 10. Master
flutes and Pilots associations of this
city_to call a special meeting to deter-
mine what steps shall be taken for a
Mb’ilte investigation of the manner of
Captain Ehlert’s death. Captain Eh-
lert. although one of the most widely
.- known oystermen and pilots sailing
from Bridgeport harbor, was not a
member of the association. Never-
theless, members of theorganizatlon
feel that in view of the dangers to
whichmen who follow their oallingare
exposed a. full and complete investiga-
‘tion of the matter should be conduct-
ed. .
All the members of Harbor No. 10
are men whose lives since childhood
have been spent about Long Island
Sound and the local harbor. They
feel that some of their members would
be apt to attach deeper significance
to any circumstance in connection
'.with the unfortunate death. of Captain
Infert, than some person who does not
follow the water for a livelihood. The
alatement was made yesterday before
coroner Phelan by Captain Clarke
and Engineer Stullknecht that the
loot-tied to the captain's left legby a
f‘sailorman" and “tied to stay."
. The meeting of this association of
toasters of vessels, pilots and rivers
men, which has a nation-wide scope,
will be called for the local branch in
Bridgeport either today ortomorrow.
'l‘he. Bridgeport harbor includes mem-
bers who sail from the harbors of
iyorwalk and Stamford and all of
‘ whom knew Captain Ehlert. Activity
on the part of these men who knew
and worked with him has brought on
the desire for the special investiga-
lion.
A further investigation by Coroner
, .i’helan yesterday threw no further
light on the manner of Ehlert's death.
Mrs. Ehleri, who is the captain's sec;
and wife and who was married to him
seven years ago, is still unconvinced
that he committed suicide. 'She has
told'Gorouer Phelan and he always
expressed deep symppthy for any one
who might be so unbalanced as to
commit suicide. Mrs. Ehlert said yes-
terday:
“My husband had ‘a very happy
home life. He was a homelovlng man.
1- cannot believe that he ever had in
mind-to commit suicide. I feel there
is a deep mystery in the manner of
his death and I hope that the authori-
ties will fully investigate it."
coroner Phelan yesterday continu-
ing his investigation of the manner or

valiantly to establish. the clrcumstau.

A 93699530 AUTO MARKER.
Will Combine License Number, Tail
light and Tuming Crustal.
Members of the General Assembly
lune had their attention called to a
recently invented automobile attach-
ment which promises to prove one
of the most important since the in-
ventive genius of the country first
began the attempt to complete a car's
equipment. Itperfec‘is the operatfdh
rand protection of an automobile in
several very important points and
will, very likely, change the present
hotbed of using' license numbers.
The matter was first presented by
Representative A. It. House, of
Windham-who urged the members of
the General Assembly to inspect the
invention during its demonstration in
the room of the committee on roads
and bridges at the capitol during the
day, because of its important bearing
on the present systemoflicensing and
because of the great element of safety
House’s remarks it was inspected. by
any members of both branches and:
called forth many expressions of coin-
mendation.
The device occupies a light frame-
wori or case nine inches high and
fourteen inches wide by about one
inch deep. In the center appears the
license'number with the name of the
stateand the year for which it is is-
sued. Arranged serially according to
thohlphabet there are never more
than four figures shown, series “A"
extending to 9.999. then series “B" to
the same. number, and so on.
This does away with confusion at-
the license number runs up to six fig-
ures.
the new device one has simply to
note the letter and the four figures.
in the lower left- hand corner is:
buliseye showing a red light and In
the upper right and lefbhand corners,
are diamond-shaped apertures dis-
playing yellow; lights. These lights.
set in‘ a blackmbsokground. are easily
discernible by day as well as' by night
and are operated electrically through
vice is attached to both the front and.
the rear of the car. the red light ap-
pearing only on the rear.
By means of this equipment the-
driver can indicate to the occupants
of a car following or approaching his
intended course. in a manner that
practically elmlnates the possibility
of accident. if he intends to turn to
the left he illiminates the diamond
light on the left side: if to the right
he. illuminates that side. The value
of such a signal. particularly at
night. is self evident and it guards
against that most common of acci-
dents. collision between, a car taming
to the. left and a car following and
attempting to pass on that side.
The red light at the rear takes the
place of the tail light now in use and
it is stated, incidentally. that the en-
tire device can be retailed. for not
much more than a good tail light
alone now costs.
_ While the invention is particularly
valuable at night its system of sig-
aphore arm signalling now in vogue
for daytime operation.
Another most important advantage
of the new device is that it gives ab-
solute protection from theft or un-
authorized usage of. a car. has the li-
censefinumbe'r ‘can be removed from
the case and the case lockedjo pre-
vent the substitution of another. Con-
sequently any one operating the car
would have to take it out without a
license. number which ..would. be apt
to interfere seriously with their get-
ting far.
The value of the inuention is self-
evident and it- is not improbable that
some legislative action may be taken
to provide for its use- in‘the regis-
lration of cars in this state in the

WAGHIHGTON, D. 0., May ‘.—Al-
, “though North American birds living in
”sills colder part of the continent return
South for the winter. there is no simi-
lar movement of birds from the cold-
er to the warmer parts of‘Soimh Aut-
erics. according to a bulletin (no. 185)
of the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture. If the birds in North America
find not go South during the winter,
they would perish. Also if the hirdsre

there would be overcrowding; so they
are drawn northward again by the U17

,South America, on the contrary. there
are almost no -migratory land birds
because the south temperate latitudes.
on account of their small area, offer
no such inducements to the feathered
inhabitants of the limitless forests
along the Amazon.
The new pamphlet. which is entitled
"‘Blrd Migration.‘ gives much informa-
tion regarding the habits of the migra-
tory birds of North America. The fact
that the routes of migration are long
and complex does notmean that these
routes were so in the beginning, says
the bulletin. tip the early ages, flight
was probably short. easily accomplish-
ed, and comparatively free from dons-
.or. Bob: lengthening of the course was
adopted permanently only after expeng
tine-e through many generations had
prode is advantage.
There are some who argue that love
of birthplace is the impulse which cau-
ses spring migration, and these cell at
tentlon to the seeming impatience of
the earliest arrivals. Ducks and geese
push northward with the beginnings
of open water so early. so far, and‘so
fast that many are caught by late
storms and wander disconsolately over
frozen ponds and rivers. preferring to
risk‘starvation rather than to retreat.
The purple martinis often arrive at
their nesting boxes so prematurely
that the cozy home becomes a tomb

food. from magi». The biueblrd’s

iNight migration probably results in
more casualties from natural causes
than would ot‘cur if the birds made the
same journey by day; but. on the oth-
the matter of food supply. For in-
stance. a bird feeds all day on the
north shore of the Gulf of Mexico; if.
then, it waited until the next morning
to make its flight across the Gulf in
the daytime it could arrive on the
Mexican coast at nightfall and would
have to wait until the following morn-
ing to appease its hunger. Thus there
would be 36 consecutive hours with-
out food, whereas by night migration
the same journey can be performed
with only twelve hours’ fast.
'During migration birds are pecul-
iarly liable to destruction by striking
high objects. The Washington Monu-
ment at the National Capital, has wit-
nessed the death of many litie mi-
grants; on a single morning in the
spring of 1902 nearly 150 lifeless bod-
ies were strewn around its base. As
long as the torch in theStatue of Lib.
arty in New York Harbor was kept
lighted the sacrifice of birds life it
caused was enormous, even teachings
