HOLDING THEIR TRADE.
How Many Cities Look After Freight
Rates and Protect Their
Industries.

The value of the freight-rate ex-
pert to the larger cities is conceded.
Few of the big business centers get
along without a traffic organization
and several of them like st. Louis.
consider traffic, bureaus of such adj
vantage that they maintain two full
fledged ones. A traffic bureau paws.
In increased trade as well as in In.
creased harmony between the rail
roads and the shippers. Having had
experience on both sides of the fence
the rate expert acts as a buffer be-
tween the contending parties, moder-
ating and DETECTING the shocks from
either side. And if expert knowl-
edge In traffic matters is of value to
the favored large center, it is of still
greater benefit to the aspiring small
city. Being continually on the defen-
sive against the aggression of its
grown-up, greedy rivals, the small
city needs all the technical rate
knowledge it can get to hold its own,
to make the most Of its resources
and opportunities.
1t was a strong and active traffic
bureau that enabled Stockton, a CITY
of 10000 inhabitants seventy miles
inland of San Francisco on the San
Joaquin river, to take advantage of
opening left by San Francisco and
Los Angeles in their squabble over
the San Joaquin trade. Stockton
was nearer to the valley. than either
OF the contending parties. On the
broad and deep San Joquain there
was water competition, but without
a traffic bureau to play the trumps
In the hand Of Stockton it would
have been left out in the cold while
the two big cities divided the spoils.
By intervening in the quarrel by
making its voice heard and by clever
lily leading its high cards, Stockton
pulled out an advantage, a differen-
tial over San Francisco that it could
not have obtained had it relied upon
| the individual jobbers to take ex-
pensive action. In the meantime

son of Mr.. and Mrs. Gregg who live
near the viaduct had his leg injured
rather seriously in trying to get a
free ride on an automobile while the
ear was in motion. He first tried to
hoard the car IN Michigan street

the back and made several other like
attempts. Finally he tried it again
when the machine was nearing the
Kuhn garage, caught his foot and
badly bruised his leg up to the knee.
He was taken home. The driver OF

dent until told by witnesses and then

TasmanIa's WATERWAYS,

Tasmania is magnificently watered.
1t has two noble waterways-the Der
went in the south, and lamar in the
north. The Huon, also fine stream,
provides water carriage into the heart
of one of the chief orcharding dis
tricts. The Derment is navigable for
small craft for many miles above Ho-
bart, while intercolonial steamers
trade regularly to Launceston, and
berth easily 40 miles from the sea.
These are the main watercourses, and
they are fed by innumerable tribu-
taries. The two cities and most of the
smaller towns are consequently well
supplied with beautiful water, while
away on highland plateau in the
center of the island is a range of lakes
of vast capacity. The possibilities of
power from them are immense, though
engineers say the initial expense
would be heavy. The South Esk pro-
vides Launceston with the power for
its municipal electrical installation.
The northern city is one of the best
lighted in Australasia. Many of its
manufactures use electrical power.

Demoerac, of Society.

Washington is nothing if not
democratic. The richest and the
poorest rub elbows, and in the
society columns the doings of a
diplomat or a senator's wife may
be printed alongside the notice
of a shop-girl's wedding. In
fact, a Washington newspaper,
which prides itself on its com,
prehensive and discriminating
social record, recently ran at the
head of its society columns in a
space usually sacred to the por-

Aldrich sat at his desk Monday
morning, engaged in day dream, de-
spite the fact that the outer Office was
full of clients. His feet rested among
scattered papers on the surface of the
mahogany; his hands were clasped
behind his head.
Thus ran his musings: "She's q
