And, therefore, the Yonkers railroad
company and lines to Newark have
bowed TO the will of the people and are
putting back the gnod old-fashioned
cars in which the conductor falls over
the passengers corns.
Women are responsible for the re-
version TO the old type in Yonkerc.
They convinced their husbands that
to negotiate three bundles, a bird cage
and several children into a car of the
pay-as-youenter variety required a
mathematic training far beyond them.
One of the women was the wife of Mrs.
Leslie Sutherland, receiver for the
Yonkers Railroad Company
In Newark they adopted business
methods TO Gust the pay-as-you-enter
outfit. There a few hundred patrons
OF the lines agreed to always pay their
fares in dollar bills The result was
that the conductors were soon deluged
with the bills and unable to carry suf-
ficient change. Besides this. schedules
were upset by the delay in making
change for so many
Mr.. Sutherland told the public serv-
Ice commissioner all about the trou-
bles experienced in trying to intro
duce the trolley innovation. He said
he went to Van Ccrtlandt Park, where
passengers change from the subway to
the surface lines. and tried TO persuade
them it would be all right as soon as
they got used to the new system.
Il went up there" said he, until
the people made fun of me and called
me a politician. / stood near the stairs
and tried TO persuade the people to
get their change ready, and even of
fered TO provide them with change.
But they would not listen and set
themselves against it, just as they did
in Newark. where they formed the dol
lar committees"
Because OF this it was necessary to
rut back old cars without wheel guards
md tenders.
Commissioner Maltbie decided the
company had been negligent in provid-
ing proper wheel guards on the old
cars which have come from premature
retirement and served notice that if
the commissions orders are not car
ried out soon the company will have
more trouble on its hands than that
experienced at the hands of the irrec-
oncilable suburbanite.

TraDDed.

The man was neither neatly nor well
dressed. He was plainly a tramp, beg
ging, and had just turned away from
one passer-by when he saw a young
man walking briskly toward him.
Please, mister" said the tramp. "can
you give us dime to get something
to eat with?"
The young man stopped. What's

The young man looked at the
tramp's smooth face. over which ra-
zor had evidently passed very recent
ly.
'Who shaved you this morning." he
asked, and as the beggar faded away
the young man grinned. and walked on
down the street.

Although the United States Govern

tary academy it encourages military
training in a number of other schools
and colleges by detailing to these insti-
tutions officers of the army and navy
These subsidiary military schools are
of three kinds. There is. first. the state
school which receives financial aid
from the state government and is re-
garded as a part of its military estab-
lishment. A notable example OF this
class of schools is the Virginia Mill
tary Institute, famous as the West
Point ri the Confederacy, and now en-
joying the distinction OF having more
of its graduates in the United States
Army than any other school or college.
The second class comprises the agri-
cultural and mechanical colleges which
have received donations of land from
the government and which under the
terms Of these grants are required to
give instruction in tactics. Private

Every farmer who votes TO reopen the

Our advice to the farmers of Iowa is
to tell the tariff agitator to "go way
back and sit down" We fancy the
farmers DO not need any advice under

they are well off. Free-trade with Can.
