MORE CARS WANTED
Commissioners Give Remedy
for Overcrowding.
no BALM FOR srRAPHANGERs
Adverse Report Il Made ON Pending
Bnl which Would Give Passengers
COmmissiOners Say Cars Are In.
sufficient in Number for Traffic.

The Commissioners, in reporting ad-
verseiy on a bill now in Congress to make
the fare of each person who cannot OBJ
tain a seat in a crowded car cents, lay
the blame for crowded cars on the Inter-
state Commerce Commission, which. they
declare, should order the companies to
furnish a sufficient number of cars.
The bill provides for a 2-cent fare from
all passengers who cannot obtain seat
in q car after travelling one block. IT
also provides that a street railway COM
pany on whose line an overcharge is
made shall be liable to damages at the
suit of the passenger in the sum of 81
for each overcharge.
Report of Commissioners.
The Commissioners report on the biI
is as follows.
The Commissioners believe that the enforcement Of
the provisions of this bill would be attended with IN
many difficulties that il would be practically Dcier-
Alive, ard would give rise Ia conditions OF disorder

tempt to emf fore the provisions of this bill Such an
attempt to out its provisions by collecting the
lower rate OF fare from all passengers on boarding
the car, and linen ";4ectn2 additional fare from
these who obtain seats. by collecting the full fare
and giving rpAaie to those passengers who not
provided with seats would undoubtedly lead to in
ternlinable disputes between rasse.igers and conduc
tcrs. which would in all probability terminate in
breaches Of the peace.
Moreover. it Is not improbable that the practical
effect of the passage Of this bill might be to put a
premium on travelling in crowded car. and thereby
asrsvate the very condition which the bill intends
TO relieve. large proportion of the travelling pub
lie 10 whom it would be NO hardship to stand for
square would deliberately board already

sired result far it be practically obtained.

TELEPHONE OF SPIDER WEB
Large, Usly Insect Is Easily Deceived
BY Tuning Fork Placed on Ono
of the Tiny Threads.

A gentleman in Ohio was watch
Ing some spiders, when it occurred to
him to try what effect the sound of
tuning fork would have upon them.
He suspected that they would take it
for the buzzing of a fly.
He selected large, ugly spider that
had been feasting on flies for two
months. The spider was at one edge
of it's web. Sounding the fork, the
man touched thread at the other
side and watched the result. Mr.. Spi-
Ser had the buzzing sound conveyed
to him over his telephone wires, but
how was he to know on which partic-
llar wire 1t was travelling?
He ran to the center Of the web
very quickly and felt all around I'M
til he touched the thread against the
other end of which the fork was
sounding; then, taking another thread
along. Just as a man would take an
extra piece of rope, he ran out to the
fork and sprang upon it.
Then he retreated a little way and
looked at the fork. He was puzzled.
He had expected to find buzzing fly.
He got on the fork again and danced
with delight. Evidently the sound was
music to him.

NEEDLE FLOATING ON WATER
Simplest Way is to Lay Tiny Piece Of
Steel on Tissue Paper-Latter
Will Soon Sink.

There are several ways of making
needle float on the surface of the
water. The simplest way is to place
piece of tissue paper on the water
and lay the needle on 1t; the paper
soon becomes soaked with water and
sinks to the bottom, while the needle
is left floating on the top.
Another method is to hang the
needle in two sings made of threads,
which must be carefully drawn away
as soon as the needle floats.
If You magnetic sewing needle by
rubbing it on fairly strong magnet,
and float it on the water, 1t will make
an extremely sensitive compass, and
If you place two needles on the water
at the same time you will see them
slowly approach each other until they
float side by side; that is, If they dc
not strike together so heavily as to
cause them to sink.
