Oarmichael returned, Thursday, to this rcityA, They report glorious trip The party left this city just after Christ mas for repetition of their trip of a year ago, at which time they left King ston just the day before the earth quake
 This year the party landed at Port Antonio a rising sea port on the north coast of the island, with population of about 5000 people, The port is des- tined in Capt. Mattoons opinion to be the chief city of the island some day It Is being made the port for the large steamship lines, has a good harbor and is more easily accessible than Kingston which is on the southern shore of Ja. maica.
 No attempt has been made yet al the permanent rebuilding of Kingston is the report of the travellers. The streets have been cleared of debris and the street railway is in operation t the business section of the city is still vista of ruins, which have not been replaced The British govern ment has offered to loan fS00,000 or a3 1-2 per cent. basis, which will bt used for the purposes of rebuilding At present the former residential sec. ton is being used as the oommercia and business portion of the town.
 From Port Antonio to Kingston there is a railroad which winds along the shore and takes seven hours tt make the distance. The steamer take' an hour less.

was hot and foetid. 1t was like being
immured in a foul tunnel and almost
as dark jerks looked over the para
pet. He thought he could distinguish
some vague figures on the sands, so ne
fired at them. A volley of answering
bullets crashed into the rock on all
sides. The Dyaks had laid their plans
well this time. A firing squad sta
toned beyond the smoke area, and
supplied with all the available guns,
commenced and kept up smart fusil-
lade in the direction of the ledge in
order to cover the operations of the
scaling party.
jerks realized that to expose himself
was TO court a serious wound and
achieve no useful purpose. He fell
back out of range. laid down his rife
and grabbed the crOwbar At brief in
tervals a deep hollow boom came up
from the valley. At first it puzzled
them until the sailor hit upon an ex-
PLANTATION. Mir Jan was busy.
The end of a strong roughly made
ladder swung through the smoke and
banged against the ledge. Before
jerks could reach it those hosting it
into position hastily retreated. They
were standing in front of the cave and
the Mahommedan made play on them
with a Lee-Metford at thirty feet

senger by sharply ringing bell. Indeed
Washington does not need to call upon
the cells Of the brain for the mental pic
ture of this performance. In this city
today "herdics" are running" with the
drivers acting as financial agents for the
company and guides for the passengers.
Our local transportation evolution has
not yet reached the point at which all
our relics Of the pliocene age OF rapid
transit are in the museum.
Down on the Union station plaza
stands one of the old horse cars. double
ender the sort that operated on Pennsyl-
vania avenue about a quarter Of a CEN
fury ago. 1t is used as a headquarters
for the traction companies representa-
tives in the work of laying tracks to the
station doors. 1t compares oddly with
the large, swift. handsomely upholstered,
electrically wired and brilliantly lighted
cars running close at hand. Possibly 1t
serves a useful purpose in reminding the
people OF today Of their tribulat!ons OF
the past, maybe making them more APP
preciative of what they have obtained.
Those old cars were crowded to the steps
during the rush hours. no less than are
the cars of today. Possibly they were
more densely packed. They ran at In
tervals Of half an hour on some lines and
of five minutes on the more favored
streets They were cold In winter, dark
at night, poorly ventilated when doors
and windows were closed and just about
as uncomfortable generally as 1T Is now
possible to conceive.
The seats were hard and often spin
tered The conductor, when there was
one. had to be signaled to stop by calls
and sometimes by frantic struggles
through the crowd. The cars stopped
anywhere for a passenger. and progress
from the Capitol to the Treasury was a
leisurely performance. Those who were
lucky enough to get seat could ENJOY
their newspaper from front page to the
last in the course of trip from George
town to the navy yard. The tickets were
sold over and over again and were con-
demned only when they were about To
disintegrate. The tickets of one line were
not good on other lines. Very few trans
fers were given. and consequently car
riding was about twice as expensive as
1t is today. The lines stopped generally
at the city boundaries, or far within
them. and about the only pleasure RIDE
possible in Washington was on the old
Belt over which a passenger could
travel several miles circuitously back to
the starting point for one fare.
Such were the rapid transit conditions
Of a few years ago. A Thoughtful study OF
that old car near the Union station may
possibly temper the indignation of some
of those who are now writing letters to
the street railway commission complain
ing of an infinite variety of shortcom-
ings in the service. And this does not
argue that many of the complaints are
not just 1t Is only to suggest that some
of those who are keeping Mr.. Eddy busy
reading their epistles are not quite fully
conscious Of the benefits that have been
bestowed upon them.
