Hays Like Pharaoh.
These men are simply demanding
fair play. They feel that the Grand
Trunk is well able to pay higher
wages Doubtless II is, too. when II
can AFFORD to pay G. M. Hays $4,000
a year. This man, like Pharaoh, Is
avaricious and refuses to give his en-

do. They are overburdened and their

RUNS RAPIDS
IN HIS BOAT
Captain Larsen Barely Es-
capes Death Mt Niagara
Rescued With Ropes.
THROUGH WHIRLPOOL

Niagara Falls, N. Y, Sept. 19.-After
a ~tempestuous passage through the
Whirlpool rapids Captain Klaus Larsen
in a motorboat barely escaped with his
life. He started from the Maid of the
Mist dock at AS p. m. and ran on a
rock near the American shore at $50.
Willing hands were ready with ropes,
and he was pulled safely to shore.
Because of the terrible batterlng the
boat received Captain Larsen was al
most exhausted and the craft was
leaking badly at the finish.
Boat Shot Twenty Feet Out of Water.
The Faro swung under the canti-
lever bridge, the engine running at top
speed, and was caught in the swift
drift break of water to the Whirlpool
rapids. Larsen held to the middle of
the channel and in less than three min
utes had made the great pool. In the
trip through the rapids the little boat
was lost to sight most of the time, but
at Great Wave 1t was shot twenty feet
out Of water, The boat landed right
and continued to the pool.
Larsen kept to the outer edge of the
pool and passed out and down without
accident. Just as he left the pool the
engine stopped working, and Larsen
was at the mercy of waters hardly less
violent than those above. The little
boat swung around stern first and
turned completely over, Larsen coming
up badly battered. 1t was here that
he injured his leg.
Larsen was the plaything Of the
mighty river, unable to hold the
course, the boat swinging from one
side to the other. After getting
through the Devils hole the Ferro, his
craft, swung toward the rocks on the
American side of the river, rolled over
n bowlder and went fast between
two others. There Larsen stayed for
five minutes, forty feet from shore,
working desperately to release the
craft. Getting free, he, was hit by a
comber and sent ~careening toward the
middle.
At the bend, with the Lewiston
bridge In sight, the boat drifted toward
the American side again and was
caught In the shore eddy. The Ferro
grounded again.

WASHINGTON
SIDE LIGHTS
MUNICIPAL

Washington, Sept. 19:-Reports
from United States Constas in Eng
land and ireland tell of the result of
the operation of street railways I'M
der municipal control. Consul H.
B. Miller, at Belfast, says the street
railroad system in that city was
placed under the management of an
expert whose administration has
been remarkably successful. A pop
ular feature of his management is
a general central station.
Another feature" Miller says "is
the variety of rates and a%pprange-
ments designed especially to suit the
general character of the city. Bel
fast has diversified industries, with
vast numbers of men and women
working in factories. Special cars
are run at fixed hours, night and
morning to transport wOrkingmen
to and from their homes and work
shops at two cents for n distance.
The same rate has also lately been
given to females up to 8 A. M. For
both classes four cents buys a re-
turn ticket that will carry the hold
er back to any part Of the city at
any time IN any car. These privi-
leges have proved of great benefit to
girls and women in various forms of
employment. Children under six
teen years Of age travel at half fare.
THE regular fare on the street
cars Is two cents for the average dis
lance of two miles, and for the more
extended lines the rate to the center
of the city is four cents, or across
the city, passing through the central
station on any one line, -four cents"
Referring to accidents, the man
ager says:
There have been two fatal acct
dents during the yea The ratio of
fatalities to passengers was one in
25,173,795."
Birmingham originally construct
ed and leased tramways to private
companies, reports Consul Albert
Halstead. T majority of the lines
reverted to the city in 1907 and are
operated under municipal ownership.
The other leases will expire in 1911.
The fares on the lines operated by
the city were arranged on the plan
of giving a maximum carriage of two
miles for two cents. Workmen are
u anu HUN lAGl WOIh
on certain lines a distance of four
and one-half miles, for two cents. AS
a rule. a workman's return ticket
costs about three cents, but to secure
these reduced rates he must start be-
fore 8 A. M, but may return at any
time during the same day.
Motormen start at twelve cents an
hour for the first year and rise to
twelve and two-thirds cents the third
year; the latter is the maximum
wage. Conductors start at ten cents
an hour, advancing to twelve cents
the third year. Motormen and con-
ductors are furnished uniforms. Mo
tormen get $4.88 extra every three
months when they have had no
avoidable accident. Including uni
forms and holidays paid for, 1t Is
calculated that the minimum wage of
a motorman is about $3.50 and the
maximum about $3.50 per week, and
for conductors about $6.40 is the
minimum and about $3.50 the max
imum.
Amsterdam tried the experiment
of reducing single fares from three
to two and one-half cents and return
tickets from five to four cents. The
result was an increase of eighteen
per cent in the number of passengers
carried but a loss of over two per
cent in the gross receipts.

AFTER FULL u

Washington, Sept. 19:-An in
stance in which the government
placed a tenacious grip on $50 has
a place in current Treasury records.
1t shows that B. M. Leitch paid $50
for a license to sell curios and pho
tographs in Yosemite National Park
for one year beginning January /,
1910. He was given the privilege
Of occupying a cabin in the Mari
posa Big Tree grove. Leitch died in
April before he had opened his place
of business for the year. AS no
goods had been sold under the IL
cense and 1t was non-transferable,
the administrator of Leitch's estate
thought that the government would
be willing to refund the license fee
of $50. He applied to the Treasury
officials for the money but the only
answer they could make was that
there was no law authorizing a re-
fund in such cases. Leithc's death
revoked the license, but that re-
voked no drawback. In May the
privilege that had been held by
Leitch vas sold to E. N. Dexter, who
paiad $50 for a years license. At
last accounts Dexter was in good
health.

CANAL NEARs COMPLETION.

J Washington, Sept. 19:-It may no
longer be ascribed to an oVer-zeal-
GUS anticipation to say that the be-
ginning of the end of the giant task
of digging the Panama Canal is in
sight.
The structure-it may be well
called that for the digging of the
great ditch is but one feature of the
works taking such definite shape
that an amateur without the trained
imagination of the engineer for
looking into the future, can see what
the canal is going to be by running
over the course through the zone
from Colon to T mama.
In the Culebra and Chagres sec
tions where the greatest amount of
excavation is to be done there Is a
deep cash through the hills. In the
Culebra section of the 84,000,0 900
yards of dirt and stone that were to
be taken out, the steam shovels
have already gouged out more than
g. 100000 yards. In the Chagres
Of excavation, ten millions has been
