Application That Was Received by
General Manager Archer.


The announcement in Saturdays
TRIBUNE that ninety Traction com-
pany passes had been cut off by Gem
eral Manager Archer CAUSED good
deal of worry among those who were
80 fortunate to possess numbered bits
of paste bo rd during the past year.
The following application accom-
panied a. 1898 street car pass, horribly
mutilatrd, which was received by
Manager Archer, Saturday afternoon
It's tattered and torn, this old street car
pafs,
Its beauty and value are things of the
past;
It has served good purpose you can see
by the wear,
That is marked DER its surface. with dirt
and with tear.
Like the year it was good for, its forced
to give place
To another that bears '94 on its face,
For the year 1913 is memory now;
With its pass that is useless | you now en-
dow
With prayers that are humble, o'evhow-
ing with hope,
renewal is asked from the kind Traction
folk;
Their officials I'll bless from the first to
the last,
If they only will give ME '9i pass.

Wheel Notes.

Weller is looked upon as the winner
in the half mile event
The Wasatch wheelmen go down to
Brockbank's at 10 a. m. today.
Angel seems to be the favorite for
the quarter mile race in the coming
meet.
Kid Angel is reported to have done
half mile in 1909 3-5 the other even
ing.
Fowler of Ogden, has been doing
some hard training on the State Street
track during the past week.
The wheelmen will have their usual
run today, and will make a trip to
Saltair, leaving the Templeton at s
a. m.
Angel and Weller will probably set
the pace in the half mile race but
Charley Evans will keep them both
hustling.
One of the most interesting of the
| Decora ton day events will be the five
mile handicap, in which there are seven
starters, Fowler, of Ogden, Weller,
Butter, Liday, Angel, May, Hassard
and Game.
A number of new riders will be seen
in the coming meet, among them bod
Mcintyre, Fowler and Charley Evans
The latter will give a good account OF

Then and NOW.

Years ago the travelling public con-
sidered a seat on the drivers box Of a
stage coach the acme of comfort. lux
ury and exclusiveness. The traveller
of today asks for limited trains, made
up of Pullman sleeping and dining
cars, vestibuled and fitted up in the
most sumptuous style of modern deco
rative art.
Such trains are run over the Erie
lines, through without change between
Chicago and New York, passing
through the beautiful Western Re-
serve, the Mahoning Valley, by Chau-
tauqua Lake, and then through the
mountains of southern New York and
northern Pennsylvania, the most pic
turesque and beautiful scenery be-
tween Chicago and the sea. Tickets
over the Erie can be purchased at any
of the principal ticket offices.
