Delightful Trips TO Mount Vernon
and Arlington on Electric Trains

One OF the most enjoyable means of spending
these pleasant Indian Summer days is to take
the electric trains of the Washington, Alexandria
and Mount Vernon Railway Company and go to
Arlington Mount Vernon. Strangers in The
city viii find the electric trains the preferable
route, not only because II is the quickest and
most convenient means of reaching both these
places, but also because il gives an opportunity
TO see many points of interest which would be
otherwise missed The electric trains leave the
station at ID l-2 Street and Pennsylvania Avenrx
every hour from 10 a. IN. TO p. m, for Mount
Vernon, and about every forty-hve minuses for
Arlington and Alexandria The fare for the round
"trip TO Mount Vernon, including stop overs at
Arlington and Alexandria, is 60c. Fare to Ar

A Sure Sign of Croun.

Hoarseness in a child that is subject to
Group is a sure indication of the approach
of the disease. If Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is given as soon as the child be-
comes hoarse. or even after the croupy
cough has appeared, it will prevent the
attack. Many mothers who have croupy
children always keep this remedy at
Eand and find that it saves them much
trouble and worry. 1t can always be de-
pended upon and is pleasant to take. For

The Judge wanted to know what 1t was

INTERESTING IF TRUE.


Along the Rutland.
The Montpelier Argus publishes a
despatch from Montreal, under date of
the 18th, which says: By the sale of
the Rutland railroad to DR.. w. Sew
ard Webb of Shelburne. Vt, p. w.
Clement of Rutland and w. X. Wander
bilt, the three principal parties to the
transaction, the Grand Trunk loses its
chance of controlling that part of the
Vermont railroad system and DR.. w.
Seward WEBB became the controlling
factor in some of the important trans
portation interests of that state.
DR.. Webb has large interests in Shell
burne which he was unwilling to have
placed completely at the mercy of the
Grand Trunk railroad, which has for
some time been reaching out after the
Vermont roads, and as matter of pro-
tecting his own interests as well as the
interests of those with whom he was as
sociated, he has carried out the plan for
securing control of the Rutland road.
He will really be the controlling element
in the management. The point had been
reached where the Grand Trunk would
acquire the property unless some one
else stepped in, and DR.. Webb and his
friends moved at once.
A majority of the stock of the Rutland
road was sold to the Delaware & Hud-
son road by P. w. Clement some years
ago and that company operated the line.
While it was not losing money by operat
ing the road, it was unwilling to extend
it to make desirable connections with
other lines, as it would then become to
some extent a competitor of the Della
ware & Hudson.
The long lease of the line did not prove
profitable to the Central Vermont,
though it seemed desirable for that road
to have control of it, so when the Central
went into the hands of receivers the lease
of the Rutland road was abandoned and
has since been operated by p. w. Clement,
the president. in such manner as to pay
small dividends.
Mr.. Clement was deslrous to extending
the line to make connection with the
Ogdensburg & Lake Champlain and the
Canada Atlantic, and had the prelim
mary surveys made for that work. AS
the Delaware & Hudson held a majority
of the stock and was not then anxious to
make the extension, and as the Grand
Trunk had partial option on the line,
nothing was done after making the sur
vey.
The Vanderbilt interests will be su-
preme in the control of the road and it
will be operated in harmony with the
New York Central. At the same time
its relations with the Delaware & Hud-
son will also be of a friendly nature, and
while nothing can be learned about its
connection with the Central Vermont,
the close personal connection between
DIR. Webb and President f. C. Smith is
an indication that there will be no hostil
ity or antagonism in their relations.
Some extensions of the line, probably
those already under contemplation by
President Clement, will without doubt
be made next season, and there are ru
mors of some other developments in
Vermont railroad matters which, while
they cannot now be verified, are likely
to prove true and important.
