What the May Woman's Home Com
panion Contains.

The current sprngtime number of
this always interesting magazine con-
tains an extraordinary variety of
spring and summer suggestions. The
cover design is unusually attractive.
even for the Woman's Home Compan-
ion. and the entire magazine lives up
to the standard set by the cover. "A
superb new painting by Jessie Will
cox Smith. Let Dogs Delight to Bark
aud Bite" is reproduced in full color
on n large mat
The fiction Is evidently the result
of the most careful selection among
the popular authors. "The Empty
House." by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps,
is concluded with dramatic force.
"The House of Healing" Juliet Will
Dor Tompkins' enticing serial adds
another installment to its popularity
Annie Hamilton Donnell draws the
simple story of lonely college girl In
"The Family Of Terese." and the late
Myra Kelly's East Side children once
more make us smile in "Bailey's
Babies"
The magazine is not all fiction and
art, however. Spring and summer
fashions are arrayed in tempting
pages, including an excellent colored
plate. "a Gambrel- Rooted Cottage"
is described for the prospective home
builder, mission Bedroom Furniture
is attractively and practically ex-
planned with working models, and a
long article Is devoted to the latest
outdoor and gardening books. The
Doctors Page and the wide range
oil all other departments cover almost
every need in the average home.
Humor, verse, music and an article
on building summer camps also con-
tribute to the value of this extraord-
inarily interesting magazine which
has just come to us from the pub
fishers.

RAILWAY PAVING
WORK IS BLOCKED
Board of Public Works HaItS Job
of Pacific Electric in
Sixth Street
THE STATE LAW IS INVOKED
Base Used by the Corporation in
Filling Between Tracks
Causes Trouble
THE STATE LAW is INVOKED

An attempt on the part of the Pacific
Electric railway to lay paving on West
Sixth street in defiance of the recent
order of the board of public works
was frustrated yesterday afternoon,
when w. M. Humphreys, discovering
that paving work had been resumed
there, sent a deputy hurrying to the
scene with orders to stop 1t 'mmedi-
ately, and if the men refused to obey
him to cause their arrest.
No arrests were made, coWever The
foreman Iii charge called Up his office
and evidently was instructed to avoid
trouble, for he ordered his men off
the job and sent back six wagon loads
of asphalt which had been delivered at
the street.
SO far as is known this is the first
attempt made by any of the railway
or railroad companies affected by the
boards recent order to disobey It's
provisions. Perhaps 1t is significant,
too, that the attempt was made Satur-
day afternoon, when the city hall is
closed and when presumably all city
officials are enjoying a half holiday.
Unfortunately for the company, now
ever. Humphreys was on the job yes
terday and he acted promptly
At present the board of public works
is proceeding in this matter under Il
state law. An ordinance covering the
same ground has been adopted by the
city council and now is in tho hands Of
the mayor. but 1t has not been signed.
The board contends that street rail-
ways, under the terms of their fran
chise, are obliged to lay their share
of the street paving in conformity with
the specifications under which the
city's part of the street is paved. For
several years past this has not been
done, the railways using an asphalt fill
instead of a cement and concrete
base, their contention being that the
concrete is too difficult to get through
when it becomes necessary to relay
rails or do other track work.
Mayor Alexander held a conference
with representatives of the railroads
on this matter Friday and at its close
announced that he should investigate
it personally before taking action on
the ordinance. special conference
will be held some time this week.
Meantime, however the board of pub
lie works purposes to see that no paw
ing is laid unless in accordance with
specifications

LOCOMOTIVES TOO NOISY,
SAYS IMPROVEMENT ASSN

A committee representing the Brook
lyn Heights Improvement Association
and consisting OF c. A. Whiting. Henry
F. Holmes and c. S. Whitman yester-
day petitioned the city council to put
a stop to the indiscrminate and un-
necessary blowing of locomotive whs-
ties within the city limits.
The committee reports that relief
was promised some time ago by the
railroad against which complaint is
made, but adds that conditions still
remain the same as always. To Brook
lyn Heights residents 1t seems as
though locomotive engineers take a
cruel delight in needlessly dispeling
the peaceful quiet of the neghborhood.
