MANY GO TO THE PARK.
Five Cent Fare Proposition Proves
Popular at First Trial

Notwithstanding the fact that the
weather was against him, Charles @.
Mathews. manager OF the larger Vine
wood Park attractions, is IN favor OF
hve-cent fare to the park.
In an interview this morning Mr.
Mathews said:
Il just wanted to see II a reduced fare
would be any fnducement to yinewood
patrons. To this end I put up a $500
guarantees. so that the railway company
could not lose If my experiment. failed.
They hauled over 1000 people to and
from the park-whlch Is about four
times the number they transport on the
average week day. They gave good
service-With one exception. They fail
ed to instruct their conductors, and
held up for g ten cent fare because the
conductors didn't know enough to tell
them where to buy tickets. That was
not my fault. and I think we have dem
onstratsd the fact that q flve-cent fare
would be a benefit, instead Of a loss, to
the street railway.
To be sure, the storm, coming early
in the evening, cut down the traffic,
and my receipts at the park. All the
attractions were turned into cities of
refuge early in the evening on account
of the rain, but trebled my usual week
day receipts, and It Is safe to say that
the storm robbed me good and plenty.
a straight fve-cent fare to the park
would be a beneft to the street railway
company, but they don't seem to re-
alize It. I recovered my guarantee at
the transfer station, beside the tickets
sold at a half dozen other places. The
people are for the fve-cent fare, and so
am L
The car service was good, as the
company had made arrangements 10
that end The company can not be
blamed for the delay in hauling in the
last few car loads Of people, as <he
lightning burned out their circuits, and
killed the line, but they are to blame
for allowing their conductors to hold up
patrons for full fare after had made
the arrangements for an excursion. One
conductor had intelligence enough to
ask passengers If they had tickets when
they came to board his train Those
who did not. went back to the transfer
station. where tickets were on sale. and
saved a dime on the round trip. Other
conductors waited and collected full
ten-eents-a-way fare from the passen-
gers who had been led to believe that
only five cents would be collected.
II am in favor of a straight fare every
day. It viii help my business, and it
