ellis electric railroad, in conversation with

E.rs electric railroad, in conversation with
Star reporter last evening. stated that
tho fault was entirely with the cadets.
There was some sort of an understanding
made between the company and the rail-
road. The superintendent OF the rairoad:
Mr.. Duckett, was not iurhisheo q prool
of the coupon. and was forced to go TO the
printer's himself to see what inc tlcket
locked like. The company, Mr. Clark
stated had insisted that clause be placed
on the ticket announcing that the coupon
and one cash fare would entitle the holder
to one through ride to Glen Echo: This
omission was called to the Afternoon OF
Can't. Shilling, and he responded that IL
would be all right. Nevertheless, 10 pre-
vent any misunderstanding, all of the con-
ductors of the road were instructed TO take
nothing but a cash fare when the coupon
was presented, and they only carried ou'
their orders, concluded Mr. clark
One of the trains on the road was stop
ned Just outside the District line, upon
which the president OF the ROAD anu Mr..
Clark <jr were seated, and the conductors
demanded another fare from all OF the pas
sengers. giving them the choice or paying
or getting off. Seeing no other alternative
and being out in a practical wilaerness'
most of the passengers were lorceo ~ eoiii-
Mr. w. c. Clark showed The Star man a
copy of the ticket which was used on the
the Junior order of United American Me-
chanics which read: Surrender TINS cou-
non and pay five cents for through ride
one way." The omission of this line caused
the entire trouble on this road
ON the Georgetown and Tenleytown elec-
trio road it is claimed that the conductors
knew nothing of the coupon arrangement,
and when the early crowds boarded the
cars and presented the tickets they were
considerably in doubt. They refused 10
take them yet to be on the safe side one
of the men sent for the vice president and
general manager of the road, Mr. J. Hlte
Miller who lives only few blocks distant.
Mr.. Miller Immediately came TO the ter
minal in response to the request, ana IN
formed the conductor that the road would
not accept the tickets. This was carried
out, and the people had to pay the regular
car fare to Glen Echo.
A Star reporter went in search of Mr..
Miller this morning to get his side o. the
story He could not be found, and IT was
stated that he had gone down the river for
the day A conductor on the road informed
the reporter that Mr.. Miller was authority
for the statement that he knew nothing OF
the coupon arrangement. He had not
agreed to accept such, and for that reason
declined to allow a ride on the coupon.
Mr.. Miller had stated. the conductor said,
that because the Morton Cadets should
take 1t upon themselves to issue such cou-
pens It was no reason why the railroad
should accept them.

In ancient days sweet odors were oh.

smoke or vapor. From this arose the ides

A WOMAN'S LOVE.
The View From . Woman's stsndpoints
The Difference With Men.

Tho great incident In woman's lKe,
and therefore an inevitable one In the wo-
man of fiction, Is love The most constant
element In woman's love, In reality or In
fiction, Is doubt.
Even with utmost confidence In the sin.
certify of the love she has engaged few
women do not at times harass themselves
with tho thought that perhaps the man
only fancies that he loves her; that In the
depth of his heart Is buried some other love
that may be quickened; that his love, now
30 ardent, may soon grow dim and grad
ually fade away.
They seem never to permit such aues-
tioning to test the merit Of the love they
give.
To the lover these doubts are never well
defined They come only In the unexpect-
cd moods that so perplex all lovers
She Is unhappy, and she does not know
why She Is despondent, but cannot de-
fine TO herself cause for hopelessness. She
Is wounded, but is unconscious OF what
hurt her. She feels that her soul has gone
out TO her love; that she must have 1t back,
but that II " Is given back she must die
She is so happy, and she is so sad She
feels that she and her lover are all In all TO
each other, except that she may not be all
In all to him. She Is devoted to him, but
Is he as devoted TO her?
And the man, having no understanding
OF her consciousness, simply berates him
self for having at some time, somewhere, in
some manner, done something TO wound
the sensitive nature Of this dear girl, or,
not being able to find any solution OF the
trouble he early comes TO resolving every
shade OF difference through the broad, gen
eral principle that all women have their
moods; that such moods do not really be-
token diminishment Of affection, and that
annoyances of this sort are part Of the pen
atty that man has to pay for the happiness
Of love.
In the matter of love men and women
seem TO be essentially different Man al
ways shows an abounding Joy in being
loved 1t is never perfect happiness TO wo-
man unless she can mingle at times with
the assurance a sweet, gentle melancholy,
springing from doubts which II called 20
answer, she would Indignantly scorn and
deny
So IL seems ever to have been, and prob
ably it will ever be, so long as this sweet
influence, love, impels men and softens
women.
Perhaps this enhances the pleasure of
love. John Keats, with everything of
beauty that was TO have been to him Joy
forever fast fading from his vision and his
fleeting breath almost ready TO leave his
dying body, left, nearly as his last word,
that his dearest hope OF love was of
"sweet unrest. ."-Philadelphia Times.
