PARLOR CAR HUG
is IN DISFAVOR

Down with the parlor car hug"
a slogan adopted by operating Off
cials of Chicago railroads is much
favored here. The expression
''parIor car hug" is derived from
a long established and general
practice of persons following
friends or relatives into cars TO
give them a fond embrace and a
farewell kiss.
The hug has been the cause of
numerous accidents in which the
railroad company has been held
responsible. The friend extending
the farewell who boards the train
waits just a second too long and
the train begins moving from the
station: the friend makes an eff
fort to get off, falls and is injured.
Women. railroad men say never
have and never will learn the art
of getting off moving or station
airy car correctly are the worst Of
tenders and are injured more often
than men.
The 'parlor car hug" is prac-
ticed most often where there are
Union depots but at every railroad
station trains have been held I'M
til the goodbye kiss and farewell
is over. No movement is on foot
by Richmond railroad officials to
establish a rule preventing it at
this time, but all are in favor of
discontinuance of the practice.

SHIPPERS PLEASED
ABOUT DECISION

Shipping interests are much pleas
ed over a decision handed down by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
yesterday, which provides that inter-
urban electric lines operating between
Indianapolis and Louisville shall es-
tablish through routes and joint rates
on less than car load shipments be-
tween the two terminal cities and to
Intermediate points.
Interurban men declined to COM
ment on the decision, which calls for
the change on or before Sept. Is. 1t
will continue in force for a period of
not less than two years thereafter
Under the commissions decision
specific class rates are prescribed.
This is the first time several lines, all
operated by electricity, have been
made the subject of that order The
real issue at stake was the practice of
the interurban roads in enforcing a
rate between Louisville and Indiana
polls, made up of two local rates which
in the aggregate were higher by sew
eral cents than the through rate on
the steam lines. Louisville mer-
chants situated on the interurban
tracks who could load merchandise
one night and deliver it in Indianapo
lis by morning, prefer to use the serv.
ice, but under rate equal to that OF
the steam roads.

RAIL WAY
BRIDGE BUILDER
Isaac N. Drury, Richmond,
Still Keeping Pace With
Progress.

Isaac N. Drury, 219 North Eleventh
street, who has been a contractor for
fifty-one years has seen two revolu-
tons in the methods of bridge build
ing In 1862 when Mr.. Drury built
his first bridge did his first contract
ing for the Indiana Central Railway
at Cambridge City all railroad bridges
We're constructed of heavy timber.
But when heavy rolling stock began
to be used on the roads, iron and
steel replaced wood in the construc-
ton. Contractors then thought that
no further changes of material could
be made. 1t was not long however,
until experiments proved that con-
crete was even better for bearing the
strain of heavily loaded trains.
Beginning with the wooden bridge,
Mr.. Drury has kept pace with the pro-
gress of his half century of contract
ing, constructing and three kinds of
bridges.
Built Many Stations.
In addition to bridges Mr.. Drury
built many railway stations. His rec
ord is unique in that all the work

the old wooden bridges that have
been replaced, is still standing.
He moved to Richmond in 1873,
where he has since made his home
In 1868 he constructed two bridges
on the Henry county pike which are
still being used The bridge at Bush's
Mill at the head of Happy Hollow
near this city, was put up in 1874
During all this time only one man
working under Mr.. Drury was killed
Carefulness, with no risks, was al
ways his policy.
The stations at Eaton, Greenfield
Union City, Dunkirk, Marion, Elwoot
and many other places on the Penn
sylvania lines were built by him.
Mr.. Drury is still actively engaged
in the construction business, although
81 years old.
