FOOT BRIDGES OVER RAILROAD
Street Committee Endorses Mayors

Street Committee Endorses Mayor
 Suggestion for Canal Line Difficulty
 The suggestion made by Mayor Studley that foot bridges be con structed by the city over the Canal railroad tracks between Sachem and the committee on streets. There are legal phases of this plan which may have to be looked into. Some of the members of the street committee while favoring the plan are in doubt as to the right of the city to build the bridge over the tracks. It is thought that permission from the railroad com missioners may have to be obtained.
 With the announcement of the atti- tude of the street committee on the matter travel was reopened between Sachem and Canal streets over the rail- road tracks by the route formerly blocked by the high board fence erected by the railroad company. There was a small gate in the fence through which pedestrians had to crawl when taking the short cut over the tracks but yes- terday part of the fence had been cut down.

when I was poor-that wanted other peoples money or thought ought to have 1t.
 "Then, too, 1t seems a pity that should be disturbed so soon in the hour of my deep bereavement; 1t is cruelty hard and un1ind. It would seem that a sense of propriety and of ordinary in tellgence would have delayed such trouble until a later time at least. II is depressing to find so much ingrati- tude, so much selfshness and greed as I have found to exist.
 There has been 50 much that is ab- solutely false regarding me and MT, Sage that I hesitate to talk to news papers I feel very much aggrieved by some of the stories published.
 To-day, just becauee I am a rich womany I am expected to help un- deserving people because they happen to be blood relations of MT. Sage, and whom he left amply provided for. They should do as did when was poor-be satisfied to live according to their natural conditions.
 MT, Sage was most magnanimous in the way he left his heirs provided for. Why, there were dozens of them he didn't even know, but to be absolutely just and generous he left them each $25,0OOO, which is far more than any one of them could have earned by his onw efforts in lifetime.
 "Mr, Sage did what he thought in his best judgment was the right thing for hisheirs, and had absolute confidence in his judgement. If people only knew when to be satisfied. But ingratitude is ground deep in many of us and sell fishness Is a paramount sin of these times. I want to adjust matters, now that I am troubled with them, just as I feel MT. Sage would have done were he confronted with the same difficult ties That is all.

REFLECTIONS OF MRS. SAGE.
She Is Disturbed by Ingratltude, Self

She Is Disturbed by Ingratitude, Self
 ishness and Greed.
 A conversation which a young woman reporter of a New York newspaper had with Mrs Russell Sage includes the following remark by Mrs. Sage:
 "It seems too bad that there are SO many unworthy and ungrateful people in the world as there are, continued Mrs. Sage, speaking of the contesting heirs. Tt Is truly pity that so many people feel the world owes them a llv- ing and who expect and demand much of others.
 "The trouble all comes about through modern social conditions, where every one strives to be what he is not; where he wants more than his efforts and labors should give to him.
 why, do you know when I was a poor girl I didn't banker after other peoples money? I did not expect things which had not earned or de- served. I lived simply and was satls- fled. got along with what had without expecting help from others.
 Nowadays life is too compelx; the demandg are too much; We should be better Ioff with more simplicity and less desire for things which do not by birtR or by or own deserts belong to usf I may be different than most, but ' never remember the tlne-I am now a flqhMsnaur snt. < eaps m sspgaRipr=os

MAY SEND YAMs NORTH.
Southern Sweet Potao Growers Thinl
 We Might Like Them.

Southern Sweet Potao Growers Think
 We Might Like Them.
 Something like 175 varieties of sweet potatoes may be produced in the South but for practical considerations there are only half dozen or less that are commercially important,
 These are divided by the Southern Field into two distinct classes; First, the sorts held in favor in the North, which must be yellow, dry mealy small to medium in size, and in the opinion of the Southern grower the less good quality they possess the better they are appreciated.
 Second, the varieties desired by Southern consumers, which may be yellow, red or white, medium Or large in size, but must be moist, sugary and of rich fiavor-quailities directly opposite to those demanded in North ern markets: t&
 The old pumpkin or yellow yam, the vineless yam and the Red Providence are considered the best for Southern rtade. These are good, whether boiled or fried When baked they come from the oven covered with Drowned, sugary coating which has resulted from the exudation of the overabund- ance of sugar with which the potato is loaded. They make pies and pud- dings which are superior to those made from pumpkins or squashes.
 People are governed by habit even in eating, and the Northern consumer having firmly fixed in mind the ideal forthe Irish potato-that is a dry, mealy potato-is disposed to sacrifice quality to make the swet potato con- form to this sctandard.
 While this is true 1t is also fact that Northern visitors to the South, many of whom never had an oppor- tunity to buy in their home markets the varieties so highly esteemed in the South, are quick to appreciate their merits when served on the table at Southern hotels and in Southern homes
 This has convinced many growers and handlers of sweet potatoes that some adequate movements should be inauguarted to educate the public at large to the merits and good value of the Southern type of sweet potato

 There are IFS motormen and con- dGctors on the local lines of the Con- solidated Railway company, who will share in the distribution of the $1.00 hung up by the road for the men who pass through whole calendar year without having demerit mark of any kind chalked against their names. The third year of this contest closed a short time ago and the money will be paid over to the employees next We'd nesday it Is said
 According to the terms of the com pany's offer for good service the total sum is halved one going to the head end men and the other to the conduc- tors. It appears that there are more motormen to share in the melon than there are conductors, consequently the share of the former will be much larg CT than that to be given the latter if $500 goes to each branch. However if the $1O0o is whacked up among the 173 faultless employees, then each will get a trifle less than $6, but enough for a t0p 2s sp2sts apyMeY1 /.
