public entertainment in the opera
have no hesitancy in taking front seats,
in fact generally rush for them, and
usually higher price is willingly paid
for the privilege. We also notice in
church the custom is the reverse, every
body crowds in the back seats and if
there are any empty pews they are al

The Michigan Railroad Commission
is making thorough investigation of
rates and service of express companies
in this state. The public has for years
needed relief from these companies
both by reason of extortionate rates
and poor service. A preliminary hear
ing has been held and the commission
has directed the companies to produce
sworn statements as to the amount of
their annual earnings as basis upon
which the commission will consider
rates later. The commissioner is pro-
