The one place on the trolley road
where you always pay a five cent
fare since the Seneca loop is com
pleted is at the intersection of
Beechurst Avenue and eighth street.
If you board the trolley car on
High street going either way, you
pay one. five cent fare at once Then
when you get to the corner of Beech
urst and Eighth street, you pay an
other, and that takes you around
the loop. If you happen to want to
keep on riding for exercise, you stay
on the car and don't have to pay
second nickel till you get to the same
place again, go that the second and
every succeeding ride around the
loop costs you only five cents while
the first costs ten cents.
Some place had to be established
to collect second fare on the route,
and this point was found to be the
most practicable, all things consider
ed.
1t allows any body along the line
to make legitimate business trip
for single fare, five cents and yet
enables the company to collect two
fares ten cents for the first ride
around the loop for pleasure.

Brushing Up on Geography.

The officials Of the customs division of the
Treasury Department have been brushing
up on geography within the last few days.
A query from San Francisco sent them to
their aliases. The collector Of customs Of
that port wanted to know whether he
should charge duty on cement taken out
of bond in San Francisco and landed on the
Midway Islands. Who owns the Midway
islands," the various officials asked each
other, and for time no one seemed able to
answer the question. If the islands were
foreign, territory the cement might be taken
out OF bend and landed there free Of duty,
as far as Uncle Sam was concerned. If on
the other hand, the islands belonged to the
United States, the cement would have to
pay duty when 1t landed there. After much
research the customs officials discovered
that the Islands were appropriated by the
United States in 1867 and have been under
our flag ever since. The cement will there
fore be subject to duty as soon as it is un-
loaded on the little specks of land LOO
miles northwest OF Hawaii The Midway
Islands will be used as the first landing
point of the Pacific cable west of Honolulu
The second is Wake Island the third Guam
and then the Philippines.

Money Expended for Clerk Hire
An amusing half hour was then spent by
the House In the personal explanations OF
several members regarding the amount OF
money spent by them for clerk hire. The
matter was brought up by Representative
Cooper of Wisconsin, who produced story
which appeared in a local paper recently,
and had 1t read by the clerk, which charged
that certain members pooled their interests
to save money in clerk hire.
Mr.. Cooper also had read an affidavit by
his clerk. Ralph B. Horton, which stated
that he received the entire allowance made
by Congress from Mr.. Cooper as his clerk.
Mr.. Cooper explained that he did not wish
to charge the writer of the newspaper
story with any malice. and explained further
that year or so ago Mr.. Horton had asked
him for permission to do some extra work.
He had not known until this morning
what this extra work was but when the
matter was called to his attention he found.
upon inquiry. that for two months at that
time Mr.. Horton had done some extra work
Mr.. Morrell Pa.) arose next for an expta-
nation and the House began to laugh. Mr.
Morrell stated that until three months ago
he had employed a clerk whom ne pald
twice the salary allowed by Congress. ana
in addition he had employed stenographer
to this clerk. Besides this a great deal OF
his congressional work was done by MS
personal clerks in Philadelphia.
Three months ago his clerk here had LETT
his service and since that time he had
had three employees to handle his congress
sional work.
Mr.. Lamb of Virginia was next heard. He
stated that his clerk was sick at the pres
ent time but that he kept him busy all
of the time. Mr.. Cassell of Pennsylvania,
who succeeded the late Representative
Brosius, stated that 1T was necessary for
him to employ more than one clerk. and
that his expenses in this connection had
ranged from $3.50 to 500 every month
since he had been elected.
Mr.. Burke Of Pennsylvania stated that he
paid his clerk more than twice the salary
when this clerk left his service for good
and sufficient reasons. Since that time he
had had to employ several persons to at
tend to this work. Representative Adams,
also of Pennsylvania, said that his Secre-
tary had served him for the ten years since
| he had been in Congress, had done all OF
his work. received all the salary allowed for
it and held no other government position.
1t was stated by Mr.. Cooper that matter
was undoubtedly called up by clerks who
had lost their positions. AS each member
with laughter and applause. Some one sug-
gested that the roll should be called and
explanations made as each members name
was reached.
