CONDITIONS ON ELEVATED.

The overcrowding upon all the elevated lines
in the city was found by the City Club investi-
gators 10 be due to the same cause as the over
crowding upon surface cars Since the opening
or the subway the traffic upon the elevated lines
has decreased. Instead Of giving the same train
service that il gave six years ago il is shown
that the company has steadily reduced the train
schedule upon all lines as the traffic decreased,
SO that crowding. instead of falling off in pro-
portion the traffic was reduced during rush
hours, has remained about the same There is
every evidence TO show that none of the elevated
lines III Manhattan, The Bronx and Brooklyn are
being run 70 anything like their full CAPACITY.
OVefcroWding is due TO the cutting down Of the
hulnber OF trains operated during busy hours
by the companies, doubtless for purposes of aeon
olhy. Ihls evil, like the surface car evil, could
be remedied by the Public Service Commission
through the simple method of compelling the
companies TO provide the service they gave years
ago II this was done overCrowdIng during rush
hours would speedily disappear upon all eleva-
ted lines throughout the city
NOllIlhg 10 the second phase of the memoran-
uunl OF the City Club. II is recommended that
o Co'iiliSSlon' before authorizing the con-
stAuciIoh OF any more elevated lines conduct a
careful study into the movement Of the poDuIa-
uoh IN all parts OF the city with a view to de-
clulns upon some definite policy TO meet the
heeds or the future 1t is pointed out that the
enormous terminals being erected by rail-
ford for the speedy handling Of suburban popu-

some sort OF a census IS taken showing the

contended that no definite line of policy dealing
with future needs should be decided upon by

transit II the companies compelled to use
the systems up TO their fullest capacity. For
that reason strong objection is made 10 the
granting of a franchise for third tracking the
Second and Third avenue elevated roads. 1t IS
conceded generally that transit facilities from
the lower part OF Manhattan to The Bronx are
inadequate to provide for the future but 1t is
pointed out that the running of more aud longer
trains upon all lines north and south upon the
island would remedy present overcrowding and
give the commission time decide definitely
upon policy with respect to the future.

ILLINOIS CENTRAL TYPE OF CAR.

>r- car tba NIetropolitan company maintain
that II secured the best available type or car at
the tine its rolling stock was purchased. inc
Illinois Central Railroad began the use or SIDE
door cars TO handle heavy traffic during the
Worlds Fair in Chicago as far back az 1893. 1t
was then an experiment and proved itself suo-
cessful in the handling Of the enormous crowds
v,btch were carried to and from Jackson Park
The first type of side door used were ordi-
nary box freight cars converted, with holes CUT
IN the sides and cross seats the entire length'
They had no doors The type now In use are
merely an improvement upon the old converted
hoxcars They have doors worked by lever
operated by the guard who is able to see that
all passengers entering are clear before the
doors are closed. These cars were in use long
before the subway was opened. and had proved
successful IN handling heavy traffic.
In order 20 secure a seating capacity Of one
hundred passengers to each OF the new type of
cars suggested. it would be necessary to ouhd
them q little wider than the cars now used.
This could be done by making the car bodies
overlap the station platforms few inches
Rot only would this provide more seating
capacity, but 1t would do away with the danger
GUS space between the cars and the platforms
which make It necessary for the guards
constantly to remind passengers TO watch their
steps
Other suggestions are made for the improve
ment OF the subway system which are i'm
portant. though they have nothing to do with
it's carrying capacity. II is recommended that
the track bed at stations be concreted for pur-
poses Of cleanliness; that, in addition to emer-
gency stairways between stations. continuous
platform the height Of the station platforms be
erected that matter where a train stops
IN case of accident, passengers may be able TO
eiisht without climbing down TO the track bed.

Why Colds Are DANGEROUS.

You often hear the expression be
ware of cold" but why? We will tell
you: Every cold weakens the lungs,
lowers the vitality and paves the way
for the more serious diseases. People
who contract pneumonia first take
cold. The longer cold hangs on, the
greater the danger, especially from the
germ diseases, as a cold prepares the
system for the reception and develop
ment of the germs of consumption,
dipththeria, scarlet fever and whoop-
ing cough. Take our advice, cure your
cold while you can. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy will do it. It's success
in curing colds has given it world

THREE SATURDAY SADIE POEMS
And the Last One Pleads That These
Rhymes May Come to an End.

And the Last One Pleads That These
Rhymes May Come to an End.
Sadie had two little lambs
Their fleece was snowy white.
The copper saw them on the street
And put them both to flight.
When Sadie came upon the scene
They ran up by her side,
AS If to say, "please protect me,
Let me from this copper hide"
The big cop came walking up,
His chest thrown out quite far,
And on the lapel Of his blue coat
She spied a shining star.
Said Sadie, Twinkle, twinkle, little
star,
How | wonder what you are.
Way up there so mighty high,
Like a diamond in the sky"
And another poet writes:
Her sheep followed her around
Up town most every day.
They were content-all three of them
Until they met Chief Hay.
He told them to evaporate,
Before him she did quail.
If she refused he'd land her
Quietly in jail
But she could not understand
Why these pets so sweet
Were not allowed in this free land
To wander on the street
Livingstone owns a dog, and
He claims much attention,
While Billie Uecher's pets" are far
Too numerous to mention.
Now all this may be true,
But there Miss Sadie must stop,
For she must not dictate to
Our chief cop!
And still third poet has this to enc
his stanZas:
Now please, Mr.. Huse, of the Norfoll
News
Let's come to an end with Sadie.
For people don't think it very wis
plan
To be talking about lady.

lief of those who formed the club that
such an organization, spreading
throughout all of the churches of the
city, would have good effect not only
upon the city's life but also upon many
young boys in town from other places
Officers were elected as follows:

AT THE THEATER
"When knehthood Was in Flower"

when knighthood Was in Flower"
1t was a splendid crowd, weather
considered, and an appreciative one,
that greeted Miss Grace Merritt Satur-
day night at the Auditorium in her
beautifully staged production of when
Knighthood Was in Flower" And the
audience had the pleasure of witness
ing one of the prettiest plays ever seen
in the city. Though a companion play
to Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hail.
which had opened the theater earlier
in the week, "Knighthood" was easily
the favorito of the two. Miss Merritt,
who has a more girlish appearance
than Miss Gallatin because her figure
is smaller was delightfully."- fascinating
in her role as the madcap princess,
Mary Tudor.
The first act of the play was bit
| slow but in the second act the audience
began to warm up and by the time the
climax arrived on the fourth act a
more enthusiastic handclapping was
given to Miss Merritt than had been
given to any other actress who ever
appeared in the town, excepting Ma
nette Comstock, who appeared with
Otis Skinner.
AS the highly tempered, willful, indie.
pendent princess, Miss Merritt won
the complete sympathy of her audi
ence and held it from start to finish.
William Clifford, who played the
leading man as Captain Brandon,
was not so clever as Miss Merritt
His acting, though he possessed good
voice, did not possess the magnetism
that the leading woman owns.
In fact John E. MacGregor as king
Henry VIII" possessed better ability
as an actor in many ways than Clifford
Mr.. MacGregor was precise likeness
of King Henry and his portrayal OF
the part was well accepted.
John G. Edwards in the role of the
dauphin, and villain of the piece, was
handsome man and, with rich voice
and artistic manner, made an excep
tionally clever member of the com
pany.
George Hawtry as servant at the tav
ern, with his squeaky voice which
needed oiling, brought lots of fun int
the piece.
The play is replete with witty rep
artee and the audience found mucl
wholesome humor from start to finish
The stage settings, carried by the com
pany, were beautiful in every detail.

CAUSE OF A BAD ROAD.
It is Said That Stanton Gets Better
End of a Public Road.

A bad road east of Norfolk. just over
the Stanton county line, has caused
untold annoyance to farmers from that
section who desired to drive into Nor
folk but until now there has been no
apparent reason for the trouble. 1t is
now said by member of the Norfolk
Commercial club that the road at this
edge of Stanton county is kept very
bad so that it will act as bar against
the coming to Norfolk of farmers liv-
ing in that vicinity; between the bad
road and Stanton 1t is said that a very
excellent road is maintained. The
Commercial club of Norfolk is now
taking steps to remedy the poor road
so that farmers from the east may be
able to drive over a good road when
coming to Norfolk.
The Stanton county commissioners
are said to feel more interested in
Stanton than in Norfolk.
