simple word in one OF the contracts
between the city Of Burlington and tho
burlington Traction company may cause
no end Of trouble. Rather, the exact In.
depreciation OF the word Is the point al
issue.
The rails OF the Traction company rur
on North avenue from North street e
North Bend street. This section OF high
way Is under process Of reconstruction
and the street commissioners demand
that the Traction company also recon,
struct It's road bed The company says
that the commissioners are rebuilding this
road and It claims that the contract pro-
vides that the company shall pay its
share only in reconstruction, not in re-
building.
It Is a mighty nne point. Herald ste-
commissioners, and City Attorney vilas
called on Elias Lyman. president Of the
Traction company. some three weeks age
in reference to the matter. Mr.. Lyma<
said that the company would not pay for
rebuilding the track bed.
The contract provides that II the com.
pany does not bear lts share In the ex-
pense of reconstruction the city shall do
the work and then collect Of the COM
pany. Formal notice has been served or
the Traction company that this will Be
done by the city. Mr.. Lyman said that
the company would fight the case.
The strip Of track involved Is approxi-
matey 100 feet long. The road bed ID
about nine feet wide and the estinna ted
cost Of the work. per square yard. is 70
cents. The matter involves. then about
sl125. The commissioners have gone on
with the work on both track bed and high-
way. Tho work will be finished In some.
thing like two weeks and then Y tho
Traction company does not pay the mat
ter will go into litigation.

RICHMOND BECOMING
BIC BANKING CENTRE
Fast Being Recognized Centre of Operations for Not Only v
ginia, But tn Carolinasss

the financial center Of the United
States and the London of the world
~ Is RiehInona- the AHaHeie4-e~
OF the South. That Is the way a
prominent banker of the Virginia
carital put 1t Saturday, and he knows
more than paint or two about the
situation
Another reason for the almost I'M
precedented development of banking
in Richmond is found in the fact that
many banks have sprung into EXIT
ence throughout the State during the
past decade and practically all Of
these institutions use Richmond as
the basis Of their operations They
maintain accounts with the Richmond
banks and otherwise help to swell the
volume of business here.
These smaller institutions. as a rule,
draw on their repositories In Rich
mond for remittances and other pur-
poses, Just as the Richmond banks
use New York institutions for the
same purpose.
Thus IL Ia evident that Richmond
is the hub of the banking wheel in
Virginia and occupies much the same
position with reference to other parts
of the South.

business men and commercial organ

This has been done by the holding
of mid-winter land shows or ex-

HEITMAN CALLS MEETING
Republican State Central Committee
Called to Meet in Boise.

Boise. Dec. 21.-No little specu-
lation is being INDUCED in by local
republicans here as the result of the
receipt OF letter from c. L. Heit-
man. chairman of the republican
state central committee by w. ID.
Reynolds. chairman of the county
republican central committee. to the
effect that he would arrive in the
city January 4 and that he desired
to call the state committee together
while in the city.
There seems to be an idea that the
meeting is to be one of no little inn
portance. and that it is fraught with
considerable political significance. In
some quarters, it is believed that
the object is to shape conditions for
reorganization and to discuss and
take into consideration the personal
ity of the reorganization to be eff
fected.
Naturally enough all the republi-
cans in various parts of the state who
have in any measure. leadership as
pirations will sit up and take notice
and HE themselves to the politica
Mecca of the state.
That the meeting is to be one o.
note is not to be doubted. Local lead
ers look wise. bput are non-commit
tai It is safe to predict that themeet
ing win be largely attended.

The Artists Model.

To the girl with imagination the
calling of artists model lures like
siren. 1t is the most wonderful
make-believe game that was ever
invented. An actress plays but one
role, while a model plays half
dozen in a day. Within twelve hours
she may be an Indian maiden, a lady
of the old French court, an athletic
girl swinging a tennis racquet, or
a goddess of summer winds floating
on a cloud.
When the day is over and the ar
fist puts away his paints and brushes
and the tired model steps down from
the stand and goes out into the pros
aic every day reality, the make-be-
lieve just begins. AS she takes her
way home she can see herself every
where.
In an open space she stands in
bronze, a splendid heroic figure. She
becomes for the moment the embod-
iment Of all the ideal qualities the
figure represents, just as she had
that day at the studio, when the
sculptor found himself while she
thrilled with the same inspiration
/ that was guiding his hands and held
the pose until she was stiff and lame
with fatigue.
