THE BOSTON SUBWAY
SATISFACTORY SOLUTION OF THE
STREET CAR PROBLEM.

Congestion of Traffic In the Busy streets
of the Hub Relieved by Underground
Trolley Lines--Tunnels That Are Light,
Clean and Attractive.
1t is now possible to cross fremont
street, Boston, at any point opposite the
Common and at any time of day without
loss of life or limb. The new subway has
brought about the change.
1t is an old tradition that the fathers Of
Boston, when they laid out the city, let
the streets follow the winding cow paths.
At any rate the streets as they exist today
are very crooked and most of them are
very narrow. This was oil right in Revo-
lutionary times, but when the city grew
miles beyond the Common and spread it.
self out to the south and west; when bust.
ness ccntcrcd itself along the lower ends
Of Washington and fremont streets, and
when dozens of street car tracks usurped
the narrow roadways, then the Bostonians
wished their ancestors had not stuck SO
closely to the COW paths.
Probably no other city on the continent
was ever so badly afflicted with congos-
tion of traffic as the Hub has been for
many years. Some of the most important
street car lines skirt the south and cast
corners of the Common on Boylston and
fremont streets. When the change was
made from horsepower to trolley, matters
grew worse. Then the poles and the tan
gle of overhead wires made that historic
breathing spot look like piece of dingy,
green billiard cloth which had become fray
cd and tattercd around the edges. So after
much wrangling In the Legislature and
courts 1t was decided TO build the subway
and put the trolley cars underground.
A large portion of the work has already
been accomplished and Boston is delight
cd with the result. The first thing Bos-
ton man asks visitor from New York,
Chicago or elsewhere Is:
"Been through the subway YETI Let's
see-you haven't one in your place, have
your"
1t is, in fact, a triumph Of engineering
and well worth u visit. There are three
open cuts where the trolley cars enter the
subway. One Is out on fremont street
where Shawmut avenue comes in. Here
the tracks from each of these thorough
fares dive into the tunnel Another Is In
the Public gardens, where the cars COM
ing down Boylston street take the under
ground dip. The third is ut the northerly
end of the subway, just beyond Haymar-
ket square and in front of the new Union
terminal railroad station into which the
Fitchburg, Boston and Maine, Eastern
and other roads run. There is loop here

A fact often overlooked, or not always

much from distressing kidney and blad-

situated back Of and very close to the
bladder, and for that reason any distress,
disease or inconvenience manifested in
the kidneys, back. bladder or urinary

to female weakness or womb trouble of
some sort.

shut up his law Office and joined the in
surgents. He served under the leadership
of General Gomez and was made one of
the latter's staff. In this position he fire.
quently distinguished himself for his cool
ness and daring He was in command of n
section of the insurgent force which made
the brilliant attack on Havana not many
months ago.
1t was found, though, that he could be
made still more useful in semicivil ca
pacity, and he was appointed governor of
the provinces of MatanZas and Las Villas.
In this capacity he has done much to
strengthen and put into good shape the
laws of the Cuban government, and 1t Is
probable that his good work in this field
gained him much influence with the more
conservative of the patriot voters who had
moro faith in a man of good executive
ability for president than In the generals
who have been doing such brilliant work
in the field. His election over General
Masso was something of surprise to out
slders who did not fully understand the
situation and shows that Cuba's civil gov
ernment really does amount to something

More than score Of years ago Mr.

the society in this country. He Las held
various offices in the society and has
taken an especial interest in the theo-
sophical college at Port Iona, Cal. an
institution which, by the way, the theos-
ophists call by the high sounding title
Of the School For the Revival of the

Mr.. Neresheimer was chosen to fill
