Robert Gay assured her that he

Robert Gay entered the little tea room
and was disappointed not to find the pres

tea
Mr.. Gay did not like tea, but he ordered
a small pot OF 1t. together with some
muffins-and he never was known to eat
between meals.
In time he was rewarded by a sight OF
Miss Tracy entering the little clubroOm.

DAILY SHORT STORY.
YOUNG MR.. GAY.
BY DOROTHY BLACKMORE.

Cor1nght, lSlil
Robert Gay was anything but jOvial
and for this reason his name was 4
source of amusement to his friends.
especially to his fellow clerks in the
village bank. Young Mr.. Gay" they
called him. and as he was the least
young and the least gay of them all
there was hardly n day on which some
sort Of fun was not made OF him.
But Mr.. Gay was not illnatured:
on the contrary. he was patient and
never became angry with the con-
slant jests. And yet he often Won
dered why he happened to have been
easily explained, because his father be-
fore him had been in the bank, and
after her had passed away the name
of the junior member of the family
had become so well established with
the young" prefixed that the man
himself firmly believed that il he lived
to be four-score and ten he would
still be known as Young Mr.. Gay.
At less than half that age, Young
Mr.. Gay had occasion to take active
interest in a village political question.
and when election day came and he
felt his pet appropriation almost a
sure success he was standing about
the polling booths with other villagers
and the usual election day crowds.
Young Mr.. Gay almost deserved his
name today. boys?" laughed a fellow
bank clerk.
Does him good to get out and hus-
tie for the good of his village" said
another.
A third man stepped into the group and
put a hand on Robert Gays shoulder.
With the other hand he pointed across
the street to a small window, in which
hung a yellow banner.
IF young Mr.. Gay feels so good, may
be he has the nerve to go across the
street there and tell those fair ladies
that it is unlawful for them to have their
club open today. They are within 100
feet of the polls

B. R. T. DECREASES
PUZZLE MARKET
Property Has Bad November, but
Net Earnings Better Than

At no time since the European
trouble started have the effects OF
poor business in the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit territory been so apparent as
in November. The month showed a
comparative decrease in gross of about
$4,000, a daily shrinkage OF $500. A
year ago was a better weather month
At the same time this is the first sub
stantial decrease in income that the
property has shown for many months
and cannot all be explained away on
the weather hypothesis.
This comparison relates to the
Brooklyn Rapid Transit as it was
year ago. before the absorption OF the
Coney Island and Gravesend Railway
early this year.
Even including income of this road
il is understood that the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit last month made a
comparative decrease in income. Net
earnings have not been FOLLOWING
gross, however. and have been doing
better comparatively than gross.

by Porter L. Paylor in 1913 has been re-
viewed by District courts and the Court
Of Appeals, and now has gone to the
United States Supreme Court On a petit
tion for a writ of error for a review OF
the case, filed yesterday by Daniel W.
Baker and Thomas c. Beadley, attorneys
for Paylor.
Porter was convicted Of betting 81 with
Donald c. Morgan more than a year ago.
In the brief filed in the Supreme Court
1t is contended that Paylor was con-
victed on evidence furnished by accom-
plices, and that the trial court refused
to instruct the jury to the effect that
those who testified against Paylor were
accomplices. The Court OF Appeals sus-
tained the trial court

A step toward the fixing OF taxi rates
in the District will be taken by the Public
Utilities Commission on December Il

CITIZENS MAKE
BEAUTIFUL CITY
Adams Says Civic Conscious
ness Needed as Much as
Progenitors.
GOOD HOUSING IS CHEAP
Bennett, of Baltimore. States Sign

Oakley Pleads for Quiet Cities.

THE beauty Of the National Capital
springs not solely from the planning
genius of Washington and PEnfant, but
in preponderating measure from the pub
lie spirit with which its citizens are i'm
bued," declared Thomas Adams, of
Ottawa, Canada. in an address at the
closing session of the convention of the
American Civic Association yesterday.
Civic consciousness is as important as
city planning in the development of beau
tiful cities" the speaker continued. The
National Capital, even with the wonder
full plan worked out by its two great
progenitors, could not have developed
into the city it is today but for the awak-
ened civic consciousness of its citizens.
washingtonans have a regard for the
beautiful. and this regard has made
Washington what it is"
Good Housing Cheap.
Mr.. Adams declared that good housing
was as cheap as bad housing, and that
city planning was no more expensive than
following the laissez-faire idea. He de-
plored the fact that more regard was be-
ing given the Identification of public
buildings and homes of the wealthy than
of the homes of the poorer classes-the
real producers of the wealth of the pa-
ton.

EIGHT CYLINDER CADILLAC
Motor Of Efficiency and v Shape
Reaches Sixty Horsepower.
CAR is BUT LITTLE LARGER
Sweetest Riding. Car IN the world,
Declares George Rein, who Rode
g. In One of the New Models
while in the East.

An innovation so radical that u has
completely startled the motoring world
q world that has long become accustomed
TO startling happenings-has been an
nounced by the Cadillac company. The
innovation is an eight-cylinder Cadillac
car. II is the first eight-cylinder ma
chine 10 be placed on the American mar
ket
George Rein. president OF the local
Cadillac agency, will receive his first
demonstration about September - and the
first shipments will arrive shortly after
october /. Deliveries will be made to Ne
braska purchasers Immediately upon ar
rival
While the new machine with its eight
cylinder motor would apparently lead
many TO believe II is a large. expensive
car, this Is contrary to tho facts. The
machine IL high-powered, TO be true as
It IL sixty-horse-power but It is larger
than the previous model only in length.
The wheel base has been extended. but in
weight the new car IL 100 pounds lighter
and the price is practically the same as
that OF the four-cyllnder model.
The engine is Of the v-shape. The eight
cylinders win permit driving up grade on
high at as low a speed as two miles an
hour. The rapldity OF cylinder explosions
will eliminate any possible throhbing or
Jerking as many engines do All equip
ment on the new car Is standard and in
'-cluded in the cost
The Sweetest Riding Car.
The sweetest riding car In the world"
said Mr.. REIN. was the ambition OF the
designers OF this eight-cylnder model. and
that ambition was surely realized. II is
Ike riding on a floor and hardly a sound
can he distinguished. I drove one Of the
machines over fifty miles when in De
troit and ! know that il will only be
necessary 10 show the car 10 prove its
qualities to the comprehensive buyer. I've
been In the automobile business a long
time and this car Is unquestionably the
cream of them all. II can't make
Omaha and Nebraska sit up and take no
tice OF the eight-cylinder machine It will
DC my fault and not that of the car"
Mr.. REIN also announces that last week
he sold three carloads OF Hupmobiles. OF
which he took over the Nebraska agency
a week ago.

First Shipments
Of Newest Models
Of Hups Received

The latest model of Hupmobile has
been announced by the Hupp Motor COM
pany ana George REIN OF the Cadillac
company, local representative, has re-
celved his first shipments. The new Hup-
mobile is a larger machine and is more
powerful. The smaller model is still
made for those who prefer the little car
to the bigger one.
Tho new automobile is 1lg inches in
wheel base, a wheel base as large az
many high price machines. Every pos
sible convenience is included in the equip
ment and the machine is constructed
higher from tho ground. Following the
trend of American manufacturers the
drive Is from the left hand side. The
small car remains right hand drive.
Mr.. Rein Ii yer yenthusiastio over the
newest little car, In taking over the
agency n week ago he contracted for over
600 machines and he expects that before
the year 10 over he will find he has more
orders than cars. Three carloads have
been received at the Omaha house and
every machine contained has been sold.
Mr.. REIN feels that his Hupmobile
agency will In no way interfere with his
Cadillac agency. The two are distinctive
types OF machines and the person who
may buy an eight-cylinder Cadillac Is
not prospective buyer for q four-oyiln-
der Hupmobile.
They are positively leaders in their
line" declared Mr. REIN. 1.-THE new
models in both cars are in my mind SUI
preme. You win find that the big Cadil-
lie and the powerful little Hupmoblle will
be two OF the most popular cars in
Omaha and in Nebraska before winter is
here I will have both Cadnlacs and
Hupmobiles ready for Ak-Sar- Ben
demonstrations and will be ready to take
orders for immediate delivery"
J. J. Gregg Of Eclipse. Neb. purchased
one OF tho new Hupmobiles the other day
and drove II from Omaha to his home.

Many country dealers have been in the
city during the last week who have beer
