cemetery OF the future is 10 be OF
concrete, according 10 the belief OF
enthusiasts OF Maroa, small town

On May Il they will dedicate what
is known as compartment mauso-

contains crypts for the reception Of
IA bodies. the collins being sealed
with concrete, to remain undisturbed
for all time.
The building is sixty feet long and
thirty-three feet wide, with side walls

Each casket Will be marked by a

CLEVELAND. May Mayor Nc
Quigg. OF East Cleveland. has brought
the Cleveland. gainesville & Eastern
trolley line TO terms with bricks.
They were bricks laid in the form OF
a solid wall across the tracks OF the
traction company early this morning.
and they brought dismay 10 the motor
men and conductors and swivel chair
barons up higher. Then followed
capitulation for the trolley officials
and victory for Mayor MeQuigg and
the people OF East Cleveland.
This Is the story OF the brick wall:
Following close on the heels OF the
protest by Mayor McQuigg against
paying more than three cents fare
into Cleveland, the Cleveland. Paines.
Vile & Eastern Co. issued special or
der No. umpty-steen that none OF its
cars stop In East Cleveland for pas

Now the East Clevelander Is not

the street railway company's tracks.
Reports OF the affair began 10 come
into the company's Office, accom-
panied by queries OF puzzled conduc-
tors, asking what TO do.
Butting the common people about
the tracks is easy, but your brick wall
Is somewhat less yielding. So the
traction officials hemmed and hawed
end scratched their heads and decid-
ed to give IN as gracefully as possible.
The obnoxious order was counter
manded.
Not long afterward down came the
McQuigg rampant.
Transfers on all city lines have been
promised for tomorrow. at one cent
each.
The strike arbitrators began theif
conference at 10 o'clock this morning.
