"There is one other matter l would
like to refer to-" said Mr.. Burke, land
that is the present acting managers
thoroughness. l have had an expert
ence of twenty years in railroading,
and | have yet to see the man who has
impressed me as favorably as Mr.. Beet
EN-. His peer as a financier is not in
this section, and although receiving
n very large salary he has more than
saved 1t during the past year by eco
nomical purchases. / know also that
Mr.. Beetem has received some very
fattering offers from other corpora
tions but has refused them because he
felt that until the property in this city
was in first class shape his first allegi-
ance was due To Il. w. Clarke * Co"
Concluding, Mr.. Burke said: 1T Is
only last week that Burke Brothers
bought 400 shares of the stock that
We're held in this city. 1t would be
preposterOus to assume that we would
throw away our money, If We did not
have full confidence in the stability of
the company, and while the present
management continues our confidence
will remain unshaken. The property,
while not being all that is desirable,
is big improvement over what 1t was"

Will Be NO CHANGES
So Says Timothy Burke, Traction
Company Stakeholder.
REASONS THAT HE ADVANCES
Says the Road Is In Better Shape Now
Than Ever Before Last Week Burke
Brothers Bought Four Hundred
Shares of the Stock.

The article in yesterdays Tribune
relative to contemplated changes in the
management and operation of the lines
or the Scranton Traction company in
this city created no little surprise and
much comment
People generally credited the present
management with giving the most eff
cient service ever known In the history
of the road, while the same was true Of
the road bed and equipment.
Among those who are interested in
the company's affairs I'm this city are
the well known contractors, Burke
Brothers. who own the major portion
of the stocks and bonds held in the city.
When approached on this subject yes
terday Timothy Burke said:
There Is absolutely not a yestige of
truth In the entire statement, and when
/ called up the firm of Il. w. Clarke a.
Co., Of Philadelphia ny telephone this
morning Walter Clarke, one of its mem
bcrs, stated that there was no truth in
the rumor. There seems to be an effort
on the part Of certain individuals in
this city to depreclate the values of this
property. What their motives are they
alone can tell, but If they hope to be
personally benefited by any such pro-
Ject they are la error. The property of
this company has never been in such
shape as 1t is at present, and 1t has
never been so well managed. The re-
ceipts are larger than ever before, and
the first two weeks of this month show
ing an increase of Is per cent. over
the corresponding period of last year.
Operating Expenses Arc Low.
"Thcse are facts that the directorate
Is entirely cOgniZant of, and when 1t is
taken into consideration that the oper-
ating expenses, into which everything
enters. is lower than ever before, 1t does
not seem probable that Il change would
b. even thought of, much less desired.
II was instrumental in causing the
changes that took place last year, as
1t was owing to representations made
by me in Philadelphia that the change
was made that resulted in Mr.. Beetem
being placed at the helm in this city.
1t seemed to me at that time that a
movement Of the same character as
that reported yesterday was on foot,
and the investigation at that time war
ranted the assertion had made.
Does 1t seem reasonable then" said
Mr.. Burke, that change is to be
desired at this time? As director OF
the company, | can say with safety,
and my statement will be borne out in
Philadelphia, that there is no desire
of transferring this property. Electric
street railroading in this city Is in its
| infancy and the prospects are very
bright. ] do not say that if good
offer were received it would be rejected
but this much | will say, that any
change in management has never been
contemplated, and a change such as
that mentioned yesterday is not even
among the possibilities Of very re-
| mote future.

Tie Last of Her Generation.

The death OF Mrs. Eliza Adams, at her
home two miles below Hawesville last
Wednesday, is the last link in family
of well known and highly respectable
people, all Of whom lived to be octoge-
narians. Mrs. Adams was a sister Of
Capt. William Sterrett, DR.. Green Ster-
rett and Mrs. Peggy Ashby, and an own
aunt Of Mrs. w II. Bowmer and w, s..
Ashby OF this city. She was remark
ably good woman, noted in the com
munity where she had lived most of her
life, for her charity and kind deeds to all.
She had not an enemy in the world, was
married to her husband for sixty years
and raised large family.
The Hawesville Clarion says: "She
was born in Breckenridge county, near
Hardinsburg in 1918, and was at the time
of her death past eighty.one years of age
She was married TO Mr.. David Adams on
May LIST, 1884. She was a consistent
member of the Methodist church, and a
devout christian. Her funeral services
were conducted by Rev. U. q Foote
from the residence at 2 p. m. Thursday,
and her remains were inferred in the
Hawesville Cemetery by the side of her
husband whose remains were exhumed
from an undesirable three corner lot in
the corner Of the cemetery to pice,
desirable lot recently purchased by her
son-in-law, @. T. Duncan. Mrs. Adams
had no enemies, was kind to all, relieved
the oppressed, helped the fallen, and
died as she had lived true christian.

VIEWS OF MARRIAGE.

We hear young men say Il am too
poor to get married." and girls, 1.-The
man l marry must be rich" These
remarks appear harmless, and they
may have certain business shewd-
ness behind them; still the larger
truth is that the speakers most often
do not take an honest view of MARI
age, no matter how honorable may be
their purposes. Money cannot insure
happiness, and long experimenting in
the countries of Europe has shown
that mating for wealth is sure road
to a lax and immoral domestic econ
omy. 1t would seem that the sensible
view to take of marriage is that it
consummates life for the poor and the
rich, the vulgar and the refined ; that
no single life is the perfect life. The
future of mankind depends almost
wholly upon happy marriages and
healthy offspring And this suggests
that there should be no marrying of
uusound people. Greater selfishness
cannot be imagined then that which
brings children into the world doomed
to life of immitigable misery, the
hereditament of those who bear their
parents burden of disease.
