The speaker was Mayor Rockwell of

There are a number of ways to
shut these travel bores up. a good
way is the Coliseum one.
"The bore says to you, enthusiast

And In Rome | saw the Coliseum
by moonlight. Um-m-m, wasn't it
flne!'
The Coliseum? you answer, calm
ly Which one?'
"Of course, there's only one Coli

about it, and if there are two, he
doesn't want to expose his ignorance.
While he hens and haws and suffers,
very red in the face you easily make

SAYS GET BACK TO YOUTH
Advice Of physica! Director TO Tired
Business Men About to Take Va

Business men about to start on their
summer vacations are advised to read
dime novels, smoke cornsilk cigarettes
and act like kids" again, by Dr., Louis
r. Welsmiller, physical director OF the
West Side Y, NJ. c. A. of New York,
His prescription for the regeneration
of business-worn members of the as
ISOLATION has been posted all over the
associations building, 1t reads
"Forget your dignity, throw away
your staidness, and be a kid again
a wholesome, fun-loving, boisterous,
misunderstanding kid-during your
vacation Many of you men, when
youngsters, used to think it great fun
to sneak out behind the barn, with a
cigarette made Of cOrnSilk and brown
wrapping paper It won't hurt you to
try the same thing again. You won
be able to smoke enough to hurt your
self, and there's no danger Of contract
ing the cornsilk habit
Dime novels make good summer
reading. They are next to the Bible
for vacation reading, but take the Bi-
BILE along, of course. Many great men
read Nick Carter, Jesse James and
like writings for relaxation. Most Of
you men have come to New York and
have made good. Help yourselves TO
make good again next winter by be,

RAILROADS AFTER EXPRESS co.
Beaumont Soar Lake and Western
and Grange and Northwestern
Claim Damages Amounting to
Five Years Business.

Houston. Tex-suit for damages
aggregating $96,627.75 against the
United States Express Company was
brought In the federal court at Eous-
ton Wednesday by Frank Andrews,
receiver for the Beaumont, Sour Lake
and Western and the Orange and
Northwestern railroad companies.
The filing OF the suits was a Sc
quence to the announcement by Presi-
dent D. I. Roberts of the United
States Express Company that the
company would go out of business
June 80, 1914, and the fact, alleged
in the petition, that the express com.
pany is under contracts with the two
railroad companies that do not expire
until July l, 1919.
Three petitions were filed. In one
Of these Mr. Andrews, as receiver for
the two Frisco lines, asked permis-
sion of the court to sue the United
States Express Company. The other
two petitions ask damages against
the express company for the two
roads respectively.
The Beaumont, Sour Lake and
Western railroad claims damages
amounting to $53,166.25 and the
Orange and Northwestern for dam
ages amounting to $43, 467.75.
The petition states that the United
States Express Company entered into
contract On or about August l, 1903,
with each of the roads under the
terms of which the railroads were to
handle the business of the express
company until July l, 1919. In pay,
ment for this service the railroad
companies were to receive a mini
mum of S170 per mile of their tracks
operated over per year, Or J5 per cent
Of the gross earnings of the express
company over their lines.
June 80 marked the last day of the
United States Express Company, once
the most powerful and extensive ex
press company in the United States
| Under the administration of Thomas
G. Plat, its president for number
Of years before his death, this com.
pany was the most aggressive in the
field, securing the choicest routes fol-
its business and Swimming the cream
of the express business of the coun
try Senator Plat YVES the leader in
the 2O-year fight against parcel post
and UP to the time of his death was
able to muster strength enough tc
kill every attempt to pass parcel
post law or appropriation
The bulk of the business Of the
United States Express Company has
been acquired by the Wells Fargo
Company, who through the passing OF
the United States Company has en-
larged its sphere of operation about
70 per cent.
