beautiful eighteen-year-old daughter of

and admired in Paterson society, left her
home Monday after her father had re-
fused to sanction her marriage to DIR.
Ram Pal The DOCTOR who is kin to an
Gent Indian royalty, is believed to have
met her in Paterson and to have brought

WORD PRIVATE. A MIsNoMER.
Railway Vehicles So Marked to Be
Known as "Ofice Cars"

CHICAGO. May 16.-Passenger cars on
the Illinois Central railroad which here
tofore have been marked private" Will
be known in the future as ''office cars. :
All such cars have been ordered TO the
paint shops by President c. III. Markham.
where-the more commonplace words Will
supplant the word private" above the
doors.
"The word private Is a misnomer so
far as ii indicates the purpose for which
the cars of the company are used" said
President Markham last night. The
cars are in no sense the sanctuary which
the word implies. They are office cars
pure and simple. and are used for the
same purpose as the general Office here
in Chicago.
.sThe words office car will make plain
to the public and the employees the pur-
pose of the cars and not convey the i'm
preston that the cars are used exclusive
~ for private advantage of the individ-
uals occupying them. BY the change We
hope to Danish any feeling, of umidity
any one having business with the com.
pany might have to entering them"

Robert Hollis Chapman Of this city,
government authority on topography,
was yesterday afternoon appointed ad-
ministrator of the Glacier National Park.
Montana. Mr.. Chapman's appointment
to this position is considered eminently
fitting, 1t is said, as he did much of the
planning and surveying for Glacier Park,
one of the most wonderful of the big
Fairgrounds of the American people, and
because of his interest in such work.
Mr.. Chapman, who makes his home at
2O29 Q street northwest, is well known
in Washington. He has been connected
with the typographical branch of the
geological survey for number of
years. Three years ago, at the request
of the Canadian government, he was de-
tailed by the Secretary of the Interior
to aid i'm establishing a Typographical
branch in the Canadian geological sur
vey. Since that date he spent much of
his time in Ottawa, Canada, and in fed
work in Vancouver Island.
Member of Clubs Here.
In addition to being a member of local
and national scientific societies, Mr..
Chapman is a member of the Cosmos and
Chevy Chase Clubs, and member of the
Engineers Club of New York. He is
an incorporation and director of the
Washington and Southern Bank. His
wife was formerly Miss Frances An
drews of Cleveland, Ohio.
BY an act of Congress-. Glacier National
Park was established in 1910. The Secre-
tary of the Interior is charged with it's
administration. The park possesses seem
cry comparable to the Alps. and is easily
accessible to the tourist. Roads are be-
ing developed and constructed, which will
make the park still more easy of access,
and the continuance of this development
will be part of Mr. Chapmans work. The
park is situated near the Great Northern
railway.
Located in the midst Of the northern
Rocky mountain chain, the elevation of
the park is between 5000 and $500 feet.
The region is especially adaptable for
mountain climbing. and within it's limits
are go lakes ranging from ten miles to
a few hundred feet in extent. Animals,
plants and more than sixty glaciers af-
ford ample opportunity to the student for
observation.
