SOLUTION FOR
BROOKLYN BRIDGE

NEW YORK, Oct. 14.-Promising to
carry 174.000 persons an hour across
the Brooklyn bridge, each passenger to
have a seat, is the inducement held out
to the public service commission to
consider the installation of a system
of moving platforms across the bridge,
offered as a solution for the crush
problem that in one form or another
has been before the public for years.
Under the present arrangement the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit company can
move $4,000 passengers an hour, $4,000
of whom have to stand.
Under the plans drawn for the
equipment of the bridge with moving
platforms. great loops will be built at
either end, the platforms on which the
passengers would ride to be reached
by a series of intermediate platforms
Entering the station after dropping
a ticket in the chopper, the passenger
would step on a platform riding on the
same axis as the main platform, but
on smaller wheels, making three miles
an hour Immediately adjacent would
be another platform making six miles
an hour, then one making nine, and
one making twelve, the same speed as
the main platform, so that there would
be no danger or inconvenience step
ping on to the more rapidly moving
structure

COLONIST RATES
FOR NEXT SPRING

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 14-The
Southern Pacific today gave notice on
behalf of itself and the Union Pacific
and certain connection in Chicago that
1t would re-establish colonist rates
from eastern points to California next
spring. Owing to the legislation in the
East, other lines have been inclined
to discontinue such rates, but the ac-
ton of the Southern Pacific definitely
settles the question for with its friend
ly connections 1t can force rates into
effect from practically all territory
west of Chicago and the Mississippi
river. AS the colonist rates from
points east thereof have been made
by basing the regular rates over the
rates from Chicago and Mississippi
river points, there will not be any
change at all, it is believed, in the
rates to be made effective next spring
The effect such rates have had on
homeseekers' travel to California is in

THIS is SAID
TO help MANY

This is said: Gel from any prescrip-
ton pharmacy the following:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla three
ounces.
Shake well in a bottle and take a
teaspoonful dose after each meal and
at bedtime.
The above is considered by an emf
nent authority as the finest prescrip-
ton ever written to relieve Backache,
Kidney Trouble, Weak Bladder and
all forms of Urinary difficulties. This
mixture acts promptly on the elimina-
tive tissues of the Kidneys, enabling
them to filter and strain the uric acid
and other W aste matter from the
blood, which causes Rheumatism.
Some persons who suffer with the
Affections may not feel inclined to
place much confidence in this simple
mixture, yet those who have tried 1t
say the results are simply surprising,
the relief being effected without the
slightest injury to the stomach or
other organs.
Mix some and give it a trial. 1t GER
tainly comes highly recommended. II
is the prescription of an eminent au-
thority, whose entire reputation, it is
said, was established by 1t.

Farewell, Bosher Bill.
Well, good bye, Bill.

Well, goodbye, Bill.
Sorry you must go.
But at least, Bill, even if you did

You took your beating like a man.
And you didn't squeal afterward.
Moreover, Bill, you didn't four flush

marks and soft money You took on
two of the hardest scrappers we have.
And you did your best.
Oh, yes; the three-punch affair with
Burns was a fake You proved it by
fighting 10 rounds with Jack Twin
Sullivan, who is at least as good as
Burns-some say better. You did fair
ly we'll, Bill-as we'll as we expect to

HARTyE Lawyers
TO Be ARRESTED

PITTSBURG Oct. 14-Develop-
ments in the Hartje case came thick
and fast. Announcement was made
that some Of Augustus Hartje's prin-
cipaI legal advisers would be arrested
on a charge Of subornation Of perjury
1t is claimed that Hartje's legal lights
aided Tom Nadine in getting out of
The country after he made what
Hartjc says is q confession of his al
legged intimacy with Mrs Hartje.
Ptusburg lawyers say this is seri-
Gus crime and that. as Hartjes attor-
neys are telling of how easy it was to
obtain the alleged new evidence, it
will not be difficult to convict.
1t also developed today that the new
letters which Hartje admits cost him
a lot of money, $500 alone being paid
to Howard Thorpe, like the letter de-
clared forgeries during the recent
court hearing, are unsigned.
Hartje also offered his wife 100000
today to admit his charges were true
and give him possession of the two
children Mrs. Hartje refused. Now
lawyers are asking why Hartje made
this offer if he is so sure of winning
To sum up, the Hartje case has de-
veloped into one gigantic conspiracy,
and the judges of the county courts,
lawyers and others will not be sur
prsed if sensation involving leading
attorneys is sprung as soon as the
superior court, now sitting in Phila-
delphia, decides if the case is to be re-
! opened.
