BURLINGTON, Oct. 11.-Hundreds
of trolley commuters between PALMYRA

miles of the line of the Riverside Trac-
ton Company were unable to reach
their destinations this morning when
motormen n conductors OF the COM

of lack Of hands.
Men Make Protest.
The trouble originated a week ago
when F.. W. Rogers, a newly appointed
superintendent of the line, dismissed
Richmond for What is declared by
Richmond's fellow workmen to have
been a mere technical offense. The
men took their grievance to President
w. M. Taylor of the company and
threatened to strike unless Richmond
was reinstated. The company officers
decided to back up the new superin-
tendent. and the men made their criti-
cal move this morning.
officers of the line refused to dis
cuss the situation at the headquarters
of the company In this city. A crowd
Of excited italians, members OF the
various road crews, surround the Of
fee here, but have given the police no
trouble.
The conductors and motormen have
been urging the p~owerhouse employees
to join them, and these men are likely
to quit this afternoon. In this event
the tie-up will be even more serious,
as many small factories are operated
by electric power dispensed by tie

Union Is Formed.
A union of the conductors n mo-
tormen was formed last week, with
headquarters at ~Bordentown. Com

Saturday night, with every regular

Pratt, the Philadelphia organizer, is
said to have urged the strike today.
While the discharge of Richmond
first incensed the men, their grievances,
it is now runored, will include a de
mand for better hours and higher
wages.
Along some sections OF the road this
morning farmers turned their wagons

Needn't suppo His Mother-In-Law.

NEW YORK, Oct. 11.-"Some women
seem TO think that when they marry
a man they can saddle their whole
family on him. remarked Magistrate
Harris in the Domestic Relations Court
yesterday. That's altogether wrong.
"A MAI is not obliged to support
his mother-in-law. If a wife does not
want to live with her husband sepa-
rately, the husband is not required to
support her unless she can prove that
she left him because he acted improp-
erly. or was brutal in his treatment
of her. If she leaves him without
cause, she must support herself"
His remarks were called out by the
testimony in the case of Louise Stockey
against her husband, George A.
Stockey, a member of the New York
fire department. They had been mar
ried foul years when differences oc-
Cured between the twain.

Con. prape statue of Miss barney.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11--Major Rich
ard sylvester, head of the capitals po-
lice department, yesterday took pity on
the %shivering statue of Miss Natalie
Barney, reclining on the lawn of her
mothers fashionable house On Massa-
chusetts avenue, and caused a patrol
man to drape the plaster form with a
heavy cloth. The policeman, 1t is said,
approached the work of art with avert
I'd eyes, performed the duty assigned
him by his superior, and then retired
with all speed to the station house.
A chorus of groans came from seven
rubber neck wagons lined up In front
of the mansion when the policeman
draped the figure, but a delegation of
housewives gathered on the opposite
side of the street and gave three cheers.
The statue, which Is Of plaster, and
was executed by Miss Natalie Barney's
elder sister. Alice. has been on the lawn
for about a week. The fact that 1t had
no drapery whatever did not attract
very much attention, for Washington
has seen unadorned figures before, but
when the news became public that 1t
was the work of one daughter of the
wealthy house of Barney, and that an
other daughter had served as model, the
procession began heading toward the
mansion.

selections as entirely advantageous to

selections as entirely advantageous to
the children of the state.
Aside from the books themselves,
another feature that pleases the gov
ernor is that the school patrons of
the state will be saved at least 20
per cent on the books, as compared
with the last five years, which means,
for the period of the adoption, a total
saving of at least 100000. This gives
tine state better selection of books
at greatly reduced cost.
While the cost does not fall heavily
upon any one patron of the schools,
as whole it amounts to great deal,
as the money is saved generally, to
that class of people who can least af-
ford to pay for expensive books. In
making the selections, the commission
was caring for the interests Of the
patrons of the public schools. In
some cases the price of books was
cut from 20 to 80 per cent, and the
cost for the entire set of books for
all grades, was reduced from some
thing over 81 to about $3.50, which
is marked reduction in the cost.
The best changes made, generally
conceded, was the arithmetic and
physiology. The books in use the
last five years did not give general
satisfaction, as the progress of the pu
pills was slow in these studies, but
with the new books on these subjects

conditions will be changed to a mark
ed degree. About 80 per cent of the
books were changed, but in making
these changes the cost to the patrons
was reduced. This even applies to
the high schools of the state. These
schools do not close directly under the
operations of the commission as the
other schools do, but the interest OF
the patrons of the state schools were
looked after by the commission along
with other schools.
