4 SUBWAY 70 BROOKLYN
That City Now Connected with
New York by Tunnel.
VIII Somewhat Relieve the Human
Crush at Bridge Entranee-A
Transportation Problem.

New York, Jan. o.-The first Of the
series Of tunnels under the waters
that divide Manhattan from Brooklyn
on the one side and from New Jersey
on the other, was opened for traffic
late Wednesday night, when the initial
passenger train left the Bowling Green
station of the Interborough subway,
ran down the inclined tracks to the
battery. far below the surface Of East
river and went the length of one Of
the long steel double tubes which
parallel each other under the river to
Brooklyn.
The opening of this tunnel, which
is in effect the extending of the pres
emit subway system to Brooklyn, is
regarded as long step toward the
solution of the transportation problem
Of New York-one that brings New
York and Brooklyn closer together
and given an outlet to Manhattan's
millions by bringing the comparative
ly thinly-populated territory Of Long
Island within easy reach Of the CEN
ter Of business. The opening of the
Battery tunnel will serve to relieve
to some extent the Brooklyn bridge
crush" by DETECTING thousands from
the human tide that rushes each day
in and out Of the funnel entrance Of
that big structure.

LYDiA z. PiNKHKM

Nature and o wOman's work com.
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for woman's ills that the
world has ever known. Z
In the good oId-fashioned days Of
our grandmother they relied upon
the roots and herbs OF the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years In
the study Of drugs.
From the roots and herbs Of the
field Lydia e. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
Of the world a remedy for their Pc
Culiar ills, more potent and efica-
ciOus than any combination Of drugs.
LYDIA e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for wOman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 NC. St.,
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
"Complete restoration to health
means 90 much to me that for the sake
Of other suffering women / am willing
to make my troubles public.
"For twelve years had been suffer
ing with the worst forms of female Ills.
During that time I had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what I suffered, and at times ]
could hardly walk. About two years
ago wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
/ followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re-
stored health and strength. 1t is
worth mountains Of gold to suffering
women"
What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Muff,
twill do for other suffering women.

The Use and Abuse Of InjunctiOns
Discussed BY the Secretary
Of War.
IN LETTER TO LABOR UNION
Sees No Objection to Defining Cases
In Which Order May Issue Nor
In Requiring Previous
l Hearing.

i MarLiub Ferry, Va Jan. W. ~
views OF William H. Taft, secretar.
Of war, in regard to the use and abus'
Of injunctiohs is stated in Q lettei
in reply to questions propounded b,
Llewellyn Lewis, secretary Of the Obi,
Federation of Labor, given out her,
Thursday. Secretary Taft prefaeei
his statement with a declaration tha
he believes 1T to be highly beneficia
and entirely lawful for laborers u
unite in their common interests.
The letter In part follows:
| First, you ask me what ! would
think OF an enactment of law de
fning the cases in which temporary
restraining order may issue, and de
filming in specific terms the language
In which such order may be framed
| see no objection to the enactment
Of statute which shall define the
rights Of laborers in their controver-
sizes with their former employers. As
this statute would fix the full limits
of their action 1t would necessarily
furnish a definite rule for determin-
ing the cases In which injunctions
might issue, as well as their char
acter and scope.
Second, you ask me what l think
of provision that no restraining OF.
der or injunction shall issue, except
after notice to the defendant and
hearing is had. This was the rule
under the federal statutes for many
years, but 1t was subsequently abol-
ished In the class OF cases to
which you refer do not see any OBJ
lection to the re-enactment of that
federal statute.
Third, in answer. to your question,
It would seem that it is unnecessary
to impose. any limitation as to the
time for final hearing If, before an
injunction can issue at all, notice and
hearing must be given The third
question is relevant and proper only
should the power of issuing exparte
injunctions be retained in the court,
In such case should think 1t emf
nently proper that the statute should
require the court issuing an ex parte
Injunction to give the person against
whom the injunction. was issued an
to have hearing thereon
within very short space of time,
not to exceed, should say, three or
four days.
Fourth, your fourth query is, in eff
feet, what would think Of provis-
lon in such cases by which the con-
temnor-that is, the person charged |
with the violation Of an order Of in
lunction-might object to the judge |
who issued the injunction, as the one
10 try the issue, whether the injunc-
lion had been violated and to fix pun
shment in case of conviction and
hereby require another judge to try
he issue and impose sentence II nee
sssary. In federal courts in such q
Ease it would be proper to provide
hat the senior circuit Judge Of the
circuit court should, upon the appli-
,ation of the defendant or contemnor,
designate another district or circuit
Judge to sit and hear the issue pre-
ented. do not think such re
friction would be unreasonable. The
appearance OF Justice is almost as inn
,ortant as the existence Of 1t in the
Of courts"

A Worthy Movement.

ment to preserve the old Irish songs
which are 80 sweet in their melodies
and stirring in their sentiments, says
The jamestown, n. Y, Journal. Choral
societies are to be formed, at which
these songs will be rendered with true
Irish spirit. The use Of these songs
by other singers and choruses is also
to be encouraged. ~
The general public little realize the
beauty and originality Of many of the
airs composed in Ireland centuries
ago. They rank. with the most beauti-
full and moving in all music Occa-
sionally. we hear some of the most ia
miliar Of them passably we'll rendered
by soloist Or, orchestra. but aside
from the rball4dss which Moore saved
from musical oblivion, few are heard
outside Of Ireland. The airs Of old
Ireland are unlike those of any. other
race, combining the weird. the pathet-
ic and the beautiful in a wonderful
melody. They are the songs of the
heart. and the world will be the richer
for their being revived and preserved.

SECOND PRIMARY ELECTION.

The Sentinel has not had any
thing to say in advance of the
meeting of the State Central Com
mittee in regard to the contest for
Lieutenant Governor, except to
publish the charges made by the
different papers throughout the
State and comments made. From
what We have read and what we
have heard in regard to the con-
duct of the election in the city of
New Orleans, we have come to The
conclusion that in the interest OF
the Democracy of the State and
the purity OF primary elections.
The State Central Committee can
not do otherwise than investigate
the charges made by the Times
Democrat and The World and the
affidavits that have been given to
Mr.. Bailey.
The Committee is powerless to
accept any compromise. The
prec -dent set four years ago in
the matter of State Treasurer
should have no bearing in this
case. as the first primary this year
stamped the disapproval of the
Democrats as to those methods,
as Captain Steele had no opposi-
ton. We do not think that the
State Central committee has any
right TO nominate a candidate for
a State Office.
Now that these charges have
gone out and the State Central
committee'is in session, we think
that they should thoroughly in
vestigate these charges; if they do
not and matters stand as they are.
they there is no doubt as TO the
result of the constitutional amend
ments which will be voted on in
April. They will be defeated.

men and we have not met single

ratios Of any frauds be punished

ALL PULL TOGETHER.

WITHHELD - prominently ISpiCS-
ented in the Commercial Secret
aries Cooperative Association
organized in New Orleans las,
week. This will give fresh pres
tige to this town already widely
heralded for its wonderful progress
and the energy. enterprise and
progressive spirit of its active
citizens. Some highly important
utilities are now on the tapis for
development and consummation
during the present year. The
spirit that actuates the residents
of Winfield has attracted more
than the customary comment and
inquiry abroad.
1t now behooves those who have
established the reputation of this
rapidly developing travel and
traffic center. to keep up the
splendid reputation they have al
ready achieved. This can only be
done by unity and active exer-
tons. 1t does not concern any
one individual, nor a few leading
spirits. but applies to every resid-
ent who holds any kind of interest
in WINFIELD and its surroundings.
Then let every man show an
interest in its development. Do
not be content to let a few lead,
but become a leader yourself. Be
alert and prompt to respond when
a little time is demanded for the
consideration of public affairs.
Remember that unity and action
are the necessary concomitants to
achieve success. Every aid plant
ed here TO push on the Car of pro-
gress. is a benefit to the individual
citizen, even as it adds to the
general prosperity. Do not be a
laggard. Be not content to per
NIT the energetic few to achieve
those things in which you have a
share.
What has been accomplished is
a mere bagatelle of what is to be
done and can be done. Become
public-spiiited in the full meaning
of the word. Let no opportunity |
escape to march forward. Remem-
Der that an opportunity lost can
never be regained. 1t was Pittacus
who said. watch your opportun-
ity.' Things done at the opportune
time inevitably achieved success.
Let every individual feel that this
depends upon himself and aci
accordingly. Then the general
will increase and what
ever the people put their hands o
achieve that will be accomplished.
