a poem on girls for the GO

a sample of the humorists lyric:
Some girls would be by the sounding

Where the rolling breakers beat;
Some girls would stay on a noun

In a quiet safe retreat;
Some vegetate in a rural state
Among the placid yaps:
While some are ripe for the sporty

Springfield, Ill. March 31.-The
Helm committee will proceed with its
investigation despite an opinion from
Attorney General Stead which. in eff
feet. may tie up funds for the inquiry
The Stead ruling was given in re-
Spouse to a query from Lieutenant
Governor Oglesby as TO whether ne
has the right TO sign committee eX-
pense vouchers which have been sent
it. The attorney general held before
Mr. Oglesby is empowered TO approve
bills for the Helm committee expens-
es, il will be necessary for an appFo-
priation act to be passed.
In view of the antagonism enter
tanned by the house against conein-
nance of the inquiry there is doubt as
TO whether an appropriation bill would
pass the lower branch. Chairman
Helm, however, insists that the lack
of an appropriation will not lead the
committee TO throw up its hands.
This avowal came on the heels of re-
ports in Springfield that funds to meet
the expenses will be forthcoming from
private sources.

Opening Of Rock Island
Monmouth Line.
Is GRADUALLY INCREASING
Estimated That 400 People Are
Brought Here Every "a
Hours.

The following from the Monmouth
Review shows how an interurban
helps:
Far surprising even the most san
guine hopes of the officials. the bust
ness of the north line of the Rock Is
land Southern railway is leaping up
ward al a terrific rate, and with the
opening OF the spring season it is ex
pected to reach q figure probably
twice or three times as great as il is
now and may 20 even higher.
The road has been open for bust
ness about three months and in this
incredibly short time the success of
the road is assured, so far as the pas
senger service is concerned. The road
is at present hauling over 1000 pas
sengers a day between Monmouth and
Rock Island The company is equipped
TO care for five times this many, or
5000 passengers day. At the present
rate this would mean 10000 passen-
gers a month or $50. 900 a year. The
NUMBER whose destination is Mon
mouth is about 300 a day, Rock Island
gets about 400 and the intervening sta
tions get the remaining 800.
GOOD THROUGH TRAFFIC..
There are at present many passen-
gers that make the trip between
Galesburg and Rock Island. coming
through this city. This service is prov
ing most popular and when ii becomes
better known that through service be
tween Galesburg and Rock Island is
established II is expected TO go much
higher. When traffic on the north line

was opened the schedule OF the east
line was So changed as to make every
car on the east line connect with the
cars on the north line. At first few of
the east line cars made the run TO the
crossing on South Main street, where
the north line station is situated, but
now almost eTert one does this.
The rate between Galesburg and
Rock Island and between Aledo and
Gaiesburg is the same as that of the
other roads. Between Monmouth and
Rock Island about fifty passengers
passengers between the two stations.
The road runs four regular cars be
tween the two cities and sometimes
FIVE are used
EAST LINE BUSY.
While the north line is thus doing a
record breaking business. the east line
is also keeping pace with it, and near
ly $4,000 passengers are being hauled
each month between the cities of Mon
mouth and Galesburg- Many months
have run over that and some run less,
but on the average ii Will run about

company is also good considering the
fact that the last few weeks have
been dull with all the roads. The new

GREATLY PLEASED WITH
THE CELEBRATION
Mrs. S. r. Kinney Remains in New
London in Connection With Tract
Matters.

Mrs. Sara T. Kinney of New Haven,
honorary past regent of the Connect
cut D. A. R., and president of the
Fort Griswold tract commission, who
has been at New London some weeks
arranging for Wednesdays celebration
at the fort, will remain there a few
days more, closing up some matters
in connection with the tractt. Mrs.
Kinney was greatly pleased at the
complete success of Wednesdays eel
ebration.
A feature of the event, which
showed the thoughtfulness of the
members of Anna Warner Bailey
chapter, D. A. R., was the serving OF
refreshments in the chapter house in
the rear of Groton monument. The
heat was great and the cool lemonade
and other refreshing things served
there were much appreciated.
Mrs. Kinney in her address, when
she presented the keys to the governor,
said;
Your Excellency: Included in the
business which was transacted by the
Connecticut general assembly in 1903
was the passage of bill relating to
the public reservation known as the
Fort Griswold tract. By virtue of this
legislative act, the state commission in
charge of this historic landmark was
empowered to do whatsoever might be
deemed necessary and suitable for the
preservation of the old forts, and for
such reservations and improvements as
might legitimately come within the
limits of the national and state laws
under which this particular tract of
land is governed. l now have the
honor to report to your excellency that
a goodly part of the pleasant duty
delegated to the commission has been
performed and that a brief statement
concerning it will be presented during
the general exercises. My present
mission concerns this memorial en-
trance to the tract of land which
environs the upper and lower forts
This gateway with its bronze tablet
bearing the names not only of the
killed but of every man who had any
part in the battle of Groton Heights
is the gift of the state of Connecticut
in commemoration of the heroic de-
Tense of the old fort by 165 American
patriots against an assault of approx
mateIy 500 British soldiers on Sept.
9Th, 1881. In obedience to the require
ments of a bill passed by the United
States congress in 1902 the design for
this gateway was submitted to and re-
ceived the approval of the secretary of
war If the substantial character of
the memorial, it's simple dignity and
artistic merit meet with the approval
of the governor and other patriotic
citizens of Connecticut the Fort Girls
void tract commission will feel amply
repaid for it's labor of love.
And now. sir l have the great sat
isfaction of presenting to you the key
| to the entrance, and in behalf of the
| Fort Griswold tract commission of
Connecticut to invite you to unlock the
gates and to declare the formal open
| ing to the public of Fort Griswold Me
