Chicago & Milwaukee R. R. to
Put New Ticket System on
Evanston KenoSha Line
LOWER FARE TO PASSENGERS
Coupon Books Will be Good on Any
Lines Under the Operation of
the Company, and They Will
Be Sold at a Low Rate

The officials of the Chicago and
Milwaukee Electric Railway Co. are
planning to establish a new system
of tickets on the line within the next
few days which will be decided i'm
provement over the old plan aud
which will give the patrons of the
road a chance to secure transporta-
ton at lower rate. The new form
Of ticket will be in the way of coupon
book similar to the mileage sold by
the great railway companies. This
coupon book will be good for passage
on any of the lines operated by the
Chicago and Milwaukee company,
and it is the intention to sell the
coupons at about the same rate as is
charged for transportation when
tickets are purchased at the down
town offices of the company. At the
present time he passenger who gets
on train without first securing a
ticket is forced to pay considerably
more than the fare demanded by the
ticket agent. With the coupon sys-
tenn in use the passenger can pur-
chase the book and it is good for any
trip he may desire to take. The rate
for these books will be decidedly
low one.
For some time the company has
been using twenty-five ride tickets
between Evanston and Waukegan,
but these will be retired as speedily
as possible in favor of the coupon
books. These books will be offered
for sale on the trains as we'll as at the
city ticket office of the company.
This system has been tried on the
Fox Lake line under the direction Of
the Chicago and Milwaukee company
and it has proved to be of great bene.
fit to the passengers as well as to the
company. When the coupon system
is fully installed all Of the passes
ISSUED over the road will be recalled
and the people having the right Of
free transportation over the line viii
be supplied with form Of mileage
similar to that issued by the steam
roads. This will do away with the
unlimited use Of the privileges &C
corded by the company. It is though
that in the near future some plan viii
be made by which transfers will be
granted to passengers on the Chi
cago and Milwaukee to ride on the
cars of the Kenosha Electric Railway
Co. However, this proposition prom
Uses to be an expensive one to the
company and the plan has not beer
definitely decided upon.

Kenosha Electric Railway Co.
Will Not Build on Ashland Ave.
ifStreet Must be Paved
FROST SETTLES ALL DISPUTES
Company Will Build the Line on the
Terms Laid Down in the Orr
dinance or Not at ALI
Offer a Final One

President A. c. Frost, of the Keno
sha Electric Railway Co., has settled
all doubts in regard to the proposed
line on Ashland avenue by his an
nouncement that he would not con-
sent to an amendment to his fran
chise ordinance which would provide
for the paving of Ashland avenue
from curb to curb. From statements
made by Mr. Frost it is evident that
he has SO much railway building on
hand withsthe line to Milwaukee and
several changes in the Fox Lake line
that he cares little whether the Keno
sha company secures the extensions
at the present time or not. Ia speak
ing of the matter Mr.. Frost said: Il
could not accept any proposition de-
handing the paving Of the entire
street, as do not think that the ex-
penditure would be warranted by the
traffic. The Ashland avenue line
would not be a paying line at this
time, but it is possible that it would
pay well in the future. IF the people
of Kenosha want a good railway on
Ashland avenue with the paving pro-
vided for by the ordinance, am will
ing to- build it, but if they don't we
will just let thesmatter drop"
Mr.. Frost did not have any state
ments tosmake in regard to the offer
made by sthe Chicago, Kenosha, Mil
waukee and Lake Geneva Co., which
offered to smacadamize the entire
street, Sbut he referred to the fact that
this company, while seemingly in ex-
istence'Efor many years, had never
laid mile of track. From the state
mentssof Mr.. Frost it would seem that
he considered the plan of Attorney
Grover and his company as bluff to
prevent sthe SKenosha company from
securing a franchise for right of
way onssAsh1and avenue.
In the meantime it is stated that
the Chicago, Kenosha & Milwaukee
company has announced its intention
to seek franchise through Waukegan
and it is said that a startling offer
will besmade to the common council
at that place.
The railway committee Of the Ke-
nosha city council has not as yet had
any further conferences with Presi-
dent Frost and none with the Chicago,
Kenosha & Milwaukee company.
| The council committee up to the time
of Misrepresentation of the Grover or
dinance seemed to favor the passage
of the Frost measure. The presenta-
ton of the new ordinance has placed
a new phase on the question and it is
being looked at from this standpoint.
President Frost has stated that his
company is in no hurry for the pas
sage of the ordinance, but notwith-
standing this fact it is probable that
the ordinance will come before the
council for final action on next Mon
day evening. The people on Ashland
avenue are somewhat divided in the
matter and there are many who are IN
favor of granting the franchise on
the terms offered by the ordinance.

VEITCH LEADS CLUB
Sheriff is Named as President Of
Kenosha GentIemen's priv
ing Club Thursday Night
ORGANIZATION is COMPLETED

DR.. ]. v. Veitch, sheriff of the
county and one of the most enthusi-
astic horsemen in southern Wisconsin,
was elected as president of the new
Kenosha Gentlemen's Driving club
which was organized at meeting
held at the old city hall on Market
street Thursday night. More than
thirty of the prominent horse owners
Of the city attended the meeting and
there was great enthusiasm shown in
the work Of organization.
The promoters announced that the
sum of $420 had already been sub
scribed for the purpose of building
the Balm track and this work will be
done under the direction of the board
of directors of the new organization.
1t is expected that the work of re
building the track will be started as
soon as the ground is in condition to
be worked and it is planned to have
the track ready for use by April l..
The rules for governing the track are
to be made under the direction of the
OOdlO VI I'LL CClOlS dAO luC 11Cl1OSlS
of the society will hold another meet
ing early in April at which time the
constitution and bylaws of the orr
ganization will be presented for
adoption.
In the meantime the trustees of the
association will have it incorporated
under the state law. 1t is planned to
make this permanent organization
among the horsemen of the city.
While It will not be possible for the
association to give any racing meets
at which admission may be charged
it is probable that at some future
time other arrangements will be made
for the building of a track on which
these meets may be held. The full
list of officers for the new organiza-
ton follows:

RUNAWAY FATAL
Horse Owned by Henry Bros. Dies from
Injuries Received in Runaway


There was an exciting runaway ac-
cident on Prairie avenue late Wednes-
day afternoon when horse belonging
to Henry Brothers, the livery men,
and driven by one of the solicitors for
the Chicago Tri bune, ran away, The
horse had been attached to a wagon
which was being used for the delivery
of dishes and it had been eft standing
in front of house near Rowland
avenue. The horse ran the full length
of Prairie avenue and then dashed
through the park. The shrubbery
about the monument was torn from
the beds and at the corner of the
monument the animal slipped and
fell. Later it was taken to the stable
but it was so seriously injured that it
died later III the evening. The horse
was valued at about a hundred dollars.
The loss from the runaway will be
considerable to the Tribune company.

The Worlds Greatest wheat Fields at
Low Prices

The opening of the vast wheat belt
in Western Canada has demonstrated
the fact that the American farmer
knows a good thing and that good
farm lands are always in demand.
Thousands of farmers and settlers
from every state in the Union have
taken advantage of the low prices of
prairie wheat lands, either for in
vestment or actual settlement and are
already reapingahandsome profits.
The great transcontinenta1 lines of
railroad now traverse the entire sec
ton and short lines bringing the
market within easy distance of the

springing up in every locality.
