ON THE RAIL.


Passenger agents of the railroads
operating eastbound from Chicago
are considering a proposition to pool
charity passengers" The scheme is
to have all APPLICATIONS for half-fare
tickets on the grounds of charity sub
mitted to the chairman of the Cen
trial Passenger association, the organ
iZation representing the lines east
from this city before the roads may
issue transportation on the requests.
1t is intended to divide the business
among the ten east-bound roads, when
it Is competitive, according to agreed
percentages. There are a number of
good reasons for the pooling and d.
yiding of charity business" said a
passenger agent of one Of the interest
ed roads. In the first place it would
correct many abuses to have all APP
plications for these rates pass through
the hands of a disinterested person,
as the chairman of the association.
Under the prevailing system the rail-
roads recognize requests for these
rates from score or more local char
table organizations. Each applica-
ton must be considered upOn its
merits and this consumes a great deal
of time. Then many of the requests
are not legitimate. ! venture to say
that so per cent of the persons who
travel on charity tickets are able to
pay full frst-class fare. Subordinate
railway Offices and agents use the re-
quests for friends and others and
many of the applications are honored
for political reasons. The legitimate
charity business is considerable and a
division of it would prevent any one
line, for one reason or another, from
obtaining monopoly Of 1t. There are
serious traffic objections to the plan
however. and whether these will re-
suit in defeating its adoption remains
to be seen" Other railroad men say
that the scheme may not be agreeable
to the executive officers of the rail
roads. Many Of the latter often au-
tlOrize on their personal signature
the sale of tickets at half rates for
charitable reasons ard it Is a question
whether the higher officials would
consent to have this prerogatIve taken
from them.

for some active man to take hold of
another crusade against the cigarette

the causes that degrade manhood has
decided that the use OF tobacco. UNI

Supt. Jasper is also enthusiastic in
favor of crusade against the evil,
although, like former President Hub

smoking among the girls of the public
schools, and but little among the boys
