means and the men to manage and
develop the New England lines of
railroad for the supposed best inter-
ests of New England; and that the
desire and purpose of our communi-
ties is to assume a greater RESPONSE
b11fty and exert a, greater public in
huence in these home enterprises in
the future than has been the case in
the twenty years just passed. The
consequences be upon us and upon
our children.
And now to the chief pleasures of
the evening. We're awfully glad to
see you, Mr.. Elliott, to have you
come to live with us, to see a, man
like you called to manage our great
est New England railway line. We
won't assume to manage it for you as
some old fashioned railway men con-
tend that the public is doing. Yours
is the power and the responsibility,
the special training and the glorious
opportunity. But we are factors in
your undertaking; you provide the
facilities, we furnish the business;
you supply service and make rates
we keep asking for better service and
lower rates, but agree with you in
wanting service and rates that shall
fic with a fair return upon your cap
ital. For we furnish a, large part
of that capital too, and we realize
that you will need more and ever
more capital, and it is better that we
should supply it than outsiders. For
last, and not least, you need our
good wiIl,-yes, ours more than the
good will of any interest or section
outside of New England, and if New
Eng1ands and Boston's fullest eco
nonIic development, are your sole OBJ
jects and not subordinate to the well
being of some other section sea-
port, you deserve to have it. 1t is
yours. Knowing our needs and as
pirattons, and also knowing some-
thing of you and hoping much, we
offer you personally the expression of
our confidence and promise you our
effective cooperation if you can use
it in the great undertaking in which
we are necessarily and not unwilling
1y your partners.

WANTS TO HAND
THEM BOQUET

Mrs. Anna Brown. 742 Walter street.
would like to hand the Hammond fire.
men nice bouquet, the reason for her
friendly attitude being that she had
to get up about 1 o'clock this morning
to put out bon fire which, she says,
departments Nos. l and should have
put out before 10 o'clock last night
when they were called to the scene
1t appears that Councilman Charles
Hubbard was burning rubbish in the
rear of his store, and that neighbors
fearing the flying sparks, summoned
the fire departments. Mrs Brown says
that the departments came alright, but
that they returned without attempting
to put out the fire. saying that 1T did
no amount to much, as 1t was merely q
bonfire. AS the wind rose later in the
night, the sparks flew into Mrs Brown 8
yard and she had to get up and quench
the fire with water, which she carried
in buckets. The fire was still smoui-
dering at o'clock this morning.

THEY HAD TO
FRAME UP STORY
And Chicago City Editors
Will Be Very Much
Peeved Today.

Staff photographers and a reporter
or two from the Offices of Chicago
morning papers found that high hand
ed methods do not succeed well in
Hammond. Laying siege to the home
of H E. Granger, an attorney, whose
wife is a leading social worker, they
failed yesterday in an attempt to out
wit members of the household and OBJ
tain picture of Teddy Kingsley, whose
antics of late have been fairly told In
THE TIMES, and the others living there.
Tad Windle and Jack Palmer, a pair
from one newspaper, who are known for
clever picture captures, obtained snaps
of Teddy when he escaped from the
house and ran up to. Forrest Granger.
They were recognized, and Mrs Grang-
err was informed of their identity 1t
is considered unethical outside of Chi
cago to kidnap for the sake of newspa-
per material.
Mrs. Granger had reasons for not
wishing the picture of Teddy to get
out. Mrs. Kingsley objects. and as she
is the guest of the Changers they de-
sired to respect her wishes. But had
the "photogs" applied the right man
ner things would have undoubtedly
been different. However, they choose
to pull what is known as Ghetto
stuff" and all. but one paper failed
to get Teddy's picture.
Apparently the "photogs" wanted a
picture of Teddy choking a cat with
Que hand and waving a butcher knife
in the other. meanwhile smoking a
cigarette. Although Teddy is Terrible
at times and often destructive, he neith-
er smokes nor kills cats.
