going away for merchandise that your

no other Installations for buying at

ordinarily save money by so doing
should be enough. A Linn county far

testify to the possibilities Of conserv-

PEOPLE SORE
ON |NTERURBAN SERVICE
Indict Strong Petition to Railroad CommisS.
ion to Get Better Service or Suspend En-
tireH-Assured of Motor Service
Z Qa~one of the Steam Roads.

1t seems to me that good business
foresight would force the Bryan mer-
chants to take hold of this PROPOSE
tion and give us the desired relief"
When the petition was presented to
Prof. o. F. Chastain, he expressed
pleasure in signing it. "The thing Of
getting my little girl over to Bryan
to school and back has worried me
much" he said. EITHER I must send
her over there in buggy or let her
walk. and this is a hardship"
The petition and signatures are
given below
College Station, Tex. April s, 1914
Hon. Allison Mayfeld, Chairman Rail-
road Commission, Austin Tex.
Dear Sir--Protests have been made
heretofore regarding the poor service
given by the Bryan & College Inter
urban Railway Company, a corpora
ton chartered under the laws of the
State of Texas, and operating as a
common carrier between Bryan, Tex
as. and College Station, Texas. Thus
far no relief has been granted and the
service has gone from bad to worse
In fact, frequently days have passed
without a car being operated over this
line
As citizens of the State of Texas
and residents of College Station. Tex
as, and patrons of the line. We. the
undersigned. respectfully request that
! in the event it has never bees de-
termined whether the Railroad Com
mission of Texas has jurisdiction over
the Bryan & College Interurban Rail
way Company in common with other
interurban lines operating as common
carriers in this State, that test be
made to settle this question. More
especially do we urge that this ques-
tion be definitely settled in view OF
the fact that 'factically all of the
/ school children who reside at College
Station. Texas, attend school in Bryan
/ Texas. and are dependent on this road
for transportation. In addition to this
considerable number of the teaching
staff of the college and of the clerical
( force reside in Bryan on account OF
inadequate quarters at College. and
they. too, are dependent upon this
| road as means of getting to and
from their work.
We further request that in case the
commission rules that the said rail
way company is subject to their juris
diction, that said railway company be
forced either to provide better service
or else cease operation entirely.

B. Youngblood. Director Texas Ex
pertinent Stations.

Instructors and students of the A.
& NJ. College want service on the
Bryan. College interurban. For four
days no cars have been operated over
that line and those who had business
to transact in Bryan have been de-
pendent upon the steam railroads.
Asking that the interurban people
either be forced to give better service
or else abandon the operation of this
road entirely, the campus people have
prepared a petition which has been
sent to the State Railroad Commits
sion. According to a letter from the
chairman OF the Railroad Commission
recently received at the college. 1t has
never been determined whether the
commission has jurisdiction over in
terurban lines. The petition, which
was circulated yesterday and sent to
Austin today, asks that 1t be de-
termined whether the commission has
Jurisdiction. and II il is found that II
has control over interurban lines, that
the Bryan.College line be forced TO
give adequate service or else cease
operation.
Rumors OF electrification OF this line
are not given much credence at the
college, and the peoples patience has
been stretched almost to the breaking
point.
Eecord of the arrival and departure
OF the trains on this line has been kept
by the commandants office since
January 90 During that time cars
have been operated on time twelve
days. On eleven days of that time not
a car was run. and on eight days only
one car was operated between Bryan
and College. On the remainder of the
days cars we're operated late and often
were annulled.
The petition was signed by the
heads of departments and by every
one to whom 1t was presented for sig
nature. V. V. Parr. cadet colonel
signed the petition for the cadet corps.
The college people are especially
anxious to secur ruling on this mat
ter inasmuch as the establishment OF
motor car service on one of the steam
railroads is an assured fact in the
event the service on the interurban is
not improved or abandoned.
In speaking OF this matter, Prof. D
W. Spence, dean of the engineering de
partment, said: II am rather sur
prised that Bryan merchants have no
taken this matter up before now
Practically all OF the college people
spend their money and do their shop
ping in Bryan under ordinary circum
stances. and are glad to do so. Nov
it is almost as easy to go to Houston
and considerable money is being spen
there that otherwise would go wher,

MOODY REBELLED.
Moving q Vote Of Thanks Was Not In

Moving q Vote Of Thanks Was Not In
His Line That Night.
Dwight L. Moody during his first
visit to England attended meeting at
which the Earl of Shaftesbury was
chairman. The duty Of proposing a
vote Of thanks was assigned to him
and the announcement made:
"Our American cousin. the Rev. Mr..
Moody Of Chicago. will now move a
vote Of thanks to the noble earl who
has presided on this OCCASION"
The whole thing was quite out Of
Mr.. Moody's line. With an utter dis
regard Of conventionality he burst upon
the audience with the bold announce
ment:
1.-THE speaker has made two mis-
takes. To begin with. I'm not the Rev.
Mr.. Moody at all. I'm plain Dwight
L. Moody. Sunday school worker.
And then I'm not your American
cousin. By the grace of God I'm your
brother. interested with you in our Fa-
TIERS work for his children.
"And now about this vote Of thanks
to the noble earl for being our chair
man this evening" I don't see why
we should thank him any more than
he should thank us. When at one time
they offered to thank our Mr.. Lincoln
for presiding over meeting in Illinois
he stopped 1t. He said he'd tried to do
bis duty and they'd tried to do theirs.
He thought It was about an even thing
all around"
That opening fairly took the breath
away from Mr.. Moody's hearers. Such
a talk could not be gagged by any
known standard Mr.. Moody carried
his English audiences with him from
that beginning to his latest labors.
