A horse attached to a wagon and

frightened at the music and noise and
broke away from his anchorage
Immediately there was great eXc,ta-
ment The frightened animal turned
and dashed down the avenue between
the two bands at full sneed and made
several efforts to get on the sidewalk.
Why il is that runaway horses always
try to monopoliZe the sidewalk is an
genealogical question ;h;,1 has never
been satisfactorily answered. This
horse was prevented from taking the
sidewalk by the fact that the wheels oe

STREET RAILWAY EXTENSION.
4 Public Hearing Given b.. the Dis
trict Commissioners.

y
trict Commissioners.
A public hearing was given the City and
Suburban Railroad Company yesterday by
the District Commissioners in regard TO the
bill now before Congress which provides
for the extension OF the street car system
of the company by single line from Lin
coin Avenue and Street westwardly along
s Street to Twenty-fourth Street west.
south on Twenty-fourth Street to Massa-
chusetts Avenue, along Massachusetts Ave-
nue. eastwardly TO r Street, and from
thence 10 Lincoln Avenue and to the start
ing point.
The line proposed by the company and
provided for in the bill is to be equipped
with an underground electric system such
as is in use on other systems in the city.
and is required to be completed and in run
ming order in one year from date, the COM
pany being authorized to issue bonds TO the
amount of the cost of construction.
The measure meets with the approval of
the members of the lexington Citizens
Association who had a representative at
the hearing to support the railroad conf
pany w g. Henderson, the chairman of
the railroad committee of that organiZa
tion. said that there was no question as to
the necessity of the cross-town road and he
thought that the route provided for would
meet with no opposition from the people
living in the neighborhood of the streets on
which il is proposed to construct the line
A transfer system with the Belt and Elev-
enth Street lines would be inaugurated he
said. and this would enable the citizens of
the sections of the city through which the
road passes to secure rapid transit to and
from their places of business farther down
town. The bill was introduced in Congress
at the request of the Citizens Association
of which he was the representative.
Mr.. Henderson stated in reply to a ques-
tion put by Commissioner Beach that it
was not known whether or not the City
and Suburban Railroad Company favored
the measure. Commissioner Wight then
asked Mr. Henderson if an extension of the
line by double track along Street would
not meet with the approval of the citizens.
Mr. Henderson stated that such an extern
sion would not meet with the requirements
OF the public as well as the one suggested
in the bill.
James B. Lackey, secretary to the presi-
dent of the City and Suburban Railroad
Company, appeared in behalf of the road
He stated that o. T. Crosby. the president
of the road. was out of the city and could
not be present. Mr.. Lackey agreed with
the representative of the Citizens Associa-
ton that cross-town route was badly
needed, but he thought that it should be
constructed at about NJ or Streets Com
missioner Ross here stated that such a
route would meet with enough opposition
to kill it even should it be favored by the
Commissioners.
Mr. Lackey stated that he was unable 10
say whether the route proposed would meet
with the approval of the railroad company,
but Bradley Davidson. another representa-
tive of the road, stated that he thought the

Bishop Byrne. as announced in The
Evening Times sometime ago carried to
Rome letter of protest from the archbish-
ops of the United States against the action
of the general of the Order of Christian
Brothers, in Paris American educational
institutions conducted by the Brothers had,
it was said, introduced higher branches OF
study than allowed by strict interpreta-
tion of the rules of the order The broth
ers appealed from an order to return to the
European methods of teaching the children
in their charge.
During the summer a number OF leading
Christian Brothers went to France to lay
their views on the subject before Brother
Gabriel, the superior general of the order.
In the number were Brother Maurice, for
mer director of Rock Hill College. How

st. Louis, Jan. 6.-Brother Aimee, a
representative of the parent house Of the
Christian Brothers, has arrived in St.
Louis, having come to this country from
Paris. He has been appointed provincial
visitor for the United States, and 1t is
said that his mission is to counteract the
resistance which the American brother
hood is offering to the attempted enforce
ment of the rule abolishing the classics.
His first official act in St. Louis, which
is the head of province. was TO announce
the removal of Brother Paulian from the
position of president of the college here
and visitor of this province.
Brother Aimee appointed Brother Gil
rarduS TO succeed Brother Paulian Wis
itor of this province. Brother Girardus
has been for some years master of novices
at the Novitate of the Christian Brothers
at Glencoe, Mo. He is well known to the
priests and bishops of this country as an
adherent of the American faction in the
present controversy over the retention of
the classics and it is not clear why
Brother Aimee selected him for promo
ton.
